Shrinking a t-shirt?
Question:Hey, my sister wants to shrink her HOT PINK t-shirt, how do you shrink it? Please tell me if this leaves any side-effects such as dimming the color or making it smell. thanx
Answers:
wash it, but use cool water or the colour might run.. then put it in the TUMBLE DRYER on hot. (Assuming it is cotton or cotton mix)
Guaranteed to shrink.
use warm water
Go to public laundromat. I know their dryers run hotter than in house ones do. I would wash it in Hot water too with clorox 2 Alternative bleach. If it shrunk enough in the wash, air dry it only. No more hot dryer choose cool dry. Wash in delicate cycle!
Wash it in warm/hot water and dry it in the dryer hot. If the shirt is a solid color it'll be fine but if there is lighter colors on it then it'll fade. Try washing it in cold water then drying it on high.
