What if jeans are stretched?

Jeans have long occupied an honorable place in the wardrobe of a modern person. Men and women of all ages were able to appreciate this item of clothing.

Comfortable, practical, stylish, they serve as a universal base for dressing up for different occasions. From the working and everyday wardrobe jeans gradually migrated to all spheres of our life.

Weddings, social events, concerts - even at such ceremonial events, the appearance in jeans is considered quite appropriate.

High-quality jeans can serve you more than one year. However, if the washing recommendations are not followed, denim clothing may stretch. If one day you pull a pair of jeans out of the washing machine for a couple of sizes more, or accidentally buy pants that are not your own size, do not rush to get rid of the thing.

Return jeans original size at home. Read more about this below.

Improper care is not the only reason why jeans can become great for you.

Many girls complain that jeans, which perfectly sat on the day of purchase, after a couple of days, their socks begin to stretch in various places. Moreover, not only economy-class pants, but also quite expensive branded products were noticed.

The most likely reason that jeans are deformed during wear is the poor quality of the material (for example, a large percentage of synthetic fibers in the fabric).

Usually jeans stretch not in length, but in breadth. The most problematic areas are the belt, hips and knees. High-rise pants can also stretch at the waist and abdomen.

As a rule, washing solves the problem, but not for long - after a day, the jeans again begin to increase in size.

If for any reason your favorite jeans have become great in a certain place, you can solve this problem with the help of one simple method. To do this, you need warm water, a little fabric softener and a sprayer for indoor plants.

• Mix water and conditioner in a ratio of 3: 1 and pour the resulting solution into the sprayer.
• Tighten the lid tightly and shake the container several times so that the liquid is well stirred.
• Then spray the mixture on the problem area so that the jeans are well soaked with water with air conditioning. Plots that remain dry will not settle.
• We throw our pants into the dryer and launch the highest power mode. In the absence of a washing machine with a dryer, you can use a regular hairdryer.
• If necessary, repeat the last two steps until we achieve the desired result.

With this simple method, you can seat jeans in a separate place, for example, on your knees or on a belt. In order for a similar effect to extend to the entire product, it is necessary to act differently.

We have compiled for you a selection of the most effective measures for seating jeans.

Before using any of these methods, first experiment on an inconspicuous area of ​​the product - because the tissue response may be unpredictable.

To make your pants shrink by size or even two, sometimes it is enough to wash them in a typewriter, setting the maximum water temperature. The main thing is to choose the right mode.

No delicate wash! Choose a program for non-fading things or intensive. At the same time you can pour into the dispenser your usual conditioner for clothes.

After washing, put the jeans in the dryer. For best results, they should be dried as long as possible.

There will be no such effect from drying in the sun or in the wind. If you do not have a dryer at home, contact your nearest laundry or dry cleaner for this service.

This method can be used only on a very warm, sunny summer day, otherwise, you risk earning a lot of unpleasant sores:

1. Fill the bathroom with water. Water should be hot, but at the same time, comfortable for the body, since you have to spend some time in it.
2. Put on your jeans, fasten them on all the clasps and sit in the bath so that the water completely covers the jeans. You should be in the bath until the water has cooled to room temperature. It usually takes no more than 20-30 minutes.
3. Coming out of the bath, immediately go to the sun - in the yard or on the loggia. Here you will have to spend several hours before the jeans dry in the sun.
4. Do not forget to periodically turn the fabric to dry evenly.

Boiling water can spoil the color of jeans, so this method is not suitable for new pants.

Even worn jeans are recommended to turn inside out before immersing in boiling water.

1. To begin with, half fill with water the largest pot that you have at home, and wait for it to boil.
2. Then carefully put the jeans in boiling water. In order not to get burned, use large metal tongs.
3. Reduce heat to medium and “cook” jeans for about 30 minutes. Make sure that the jeans are completely in the water, if necessary, top up with water.
4. When enough time has passed, remove the pants, let them cool and place in the dryer. You can dry your pants and in normal conditions, but then the effect will not be so noticeable.

Return jeans to their original size can be with the help of iron. Before that, you need to wash them as recommended in methods 1 or 3, and then dry - preferably in a dryer in the most powerful mode.

Pulling jeans out of the dryer, make sure that they are completely dry (even better if they get steam).

Now you can proceed to smoothing. Experiment with different modes. Ironing jeans can be very long, so do this until you get bored (but not less than 10 minutes).

In order for jeans to maintain their original shape as long as possible, simple precautions must be taken to keep pants in perfect condition for a long time:

• Do not wear jeans very often. After each sock, give them a day or two to "rest" and restore shape.
• If the composition of jeans contains synthetic fibers in an amount greater than 10%, in any case, do not wash them in hot water and do not boil.

• Buy jeans with a high percentage of cotton in the composition. If jeans are almost 100% cotton, they will practically not stretch.
• When buying jeans, choose a model that is one size smaller than the one in which you are comfortable. Jeans should sit very tight and hold down a little movement. In a few days, they will inevitably stretch out and become exactly the size you need.
• Do not wash jeans too often, then the structure of the material will not quickly deteriorate, and pants will retain their original shape and color for a long time.
