How Do You Shrink Jeans?

You can also boil them and put them in the dryer

Sometimes even if you get the correct size of a pair of jeans there is some kind of discrepancy and the jeans prove to be too big. So what if you really like the jeans and don't want to return them? You can use the following tips to make your jeans shrink to fit you.

Firstly, remember this rule of thumb, heat shrinks cloth. Hence preferably wash your jeans in hot water or set the machine at a hot rinse temperature setting. Also, put the dryer setting on high temperature. The objective here is to make them really hot and then dry them completely, if possible, over dry them. So do not remove them from the dryer unless they are completely dry. Each time you put the jeans for a wash make sure to set the dryer on high.
