Meter-stallion of our weight of form, our fetish jeans, the one who - without any pretension - makes us a silhouette to Gisèle Budchen , is often the most faithful of our companions of dress. Until the day when, taken by a bad blow dryer or a total refusal to cooperate with our consumption of Spritz and burratas, denim said we loose, refusing to climb beyond the obstacle physical that constitute our buttocks.

A problem with consequences, certainly, non-dramatic but still has the gift of generating a good deal of frustration and a substantial decline in our self-esteem .

However, before panicking and erecting an altar to the glory of our deceased jeans, it seems good to test one of these potentially miracle solutions that could resurrect it.

Hot water, stretching and obstinacy

First solution: put the jeans in question (at least until the fateful level) and take a warm bath, fully dressed . We relax for a quarter of an hour while trying, as far as possible to make movements with our legs to stretch the fibers. Same chorus once out of the water: we keep his jeans wet and we apply to perform some stretching for a good half hour (we never said it would be easy!) Before removing it and to dry it in the open air. As a reminder, to put it in the dryer would be to sign his death warrant, simple and definitive, as it would be narrowed. Also repeat the operation when it is (finally) dry story that it completely marries your figure.

Other solutions? Long pull on the belt of the jeans at the exit of the machine when the buttoning is tedious, pulling it in all directions after having sprayed it with water or, stuff it with socks or plastic bags while it is still wet until completely dry. So many tips that will push you to put yourself in situations a little ridiculous - we will not lie - but have the merit of reconciling you with the jeans of your life.
