“I accidentally shrunk my dress in the dryer,” Wyrick said.
Wyrick tried on a white linen dress that came up just a bit too short. She placed the dress in the sink and drenched it in water.
Then she added 1/4 cup of hair conditioner. Next, she let the dress soak for 20 minutes.
Finally, she stretched the dress by gently tugging at the fabric, and then she let it air dry.
When she put it on again, the dress was the perfect length.
