Step 6Wash & Wear
Materials:
Now, using this newly-acquired hint, I set forth to obtain some liquid fabric softener. Mom told me that they didn't make hypoallergenic softener, but she was soon disproved by Nonna, who bought some for me =] (Brand is seventh generation, if you too have allergy problems, I recommend it =)
Now on to the washer. I made a full load of dark laundry. Started the water like normal, added same amount of detergent, and then poured in the fabric softener. On my machine, there is a special reservoir specifically for fabric softener, which it will add in at the last rinse cycle. There's a good chance that the instructions on your fabric softener will say to pour it in during the last rinse cycle, but if your machine has a reservoir like mine, one less thing for you to worry about ;]
When your wash is done, it's time to put your clothes into the dryer. I added a fabric sheet, not only because I want my clothes to smell good, but perhaps also because it's almost second nature. When your clothes are done drying, you'll have a brand-spankin-new (excuse the pun) pair of jeans!
As always, Good luck and Have fun!

AWESOME, thank you for this article!! I've been soaking my jeans in fabric softener, washing them, and repeating for a few days now. I knew there must be other things to try besides just stretching, soaking, and beating the crap out of them. I never thought of sandpaper or shampoo/conditioner-- brilliant!
