How do I wash my clothes without shrinking them?

I've had this problem and all my clothes look pretty retarded now.anyway to keep them from shrinking when they're drying?How do I wash my clothes without shrinking them?
If you are drying your clothes in a dryer, then there will always be a bit of shrinkage and lots of shrinkage to all cotton and natural fibres (you will ruin wool items this way). They always shrink in the dryer, no way out of that one, and always when using warm to hot water to wash.


Best to wash all natural fibres in COLD water only and hang to dry, never put in the dryer.


Some people will put T-shirts in dryer for a few minutes only (approx.10-15 minutes) to avoid creases and immediately take out and hang straightaway to dry rest of moisture. You can hang on hangers or on a clothesline. Hope this helps.

Wash in cold water, delicate cycle. Using Woolite helps. You can tumble in dryer using air/fluff setting for 5 minutes or so to remove wrinkles. Remove from the dryer. Lay flat to finish drying, gently stretching back into shape.
Only natural fibers shrink. If your clothes are cotton, wool, linen or silk they can shrink. Blends and manmade fibers don't shrink. Wash in cold and dry on a lower setting to keep clothes looking their best,
Make sure you follow the care label instruction on your clothes, that may help. Using cold water for the wash may also help prevent shrinkage.
Use the lowest temperature possible in the gentle cycle.
wash on gentle/warm, dry on low or air dry. : ) Be especially careful if it has a high cotton content.
Your best bet is to air dry, or dry on low but it might take a little longer
