To fix a Sherpa after washing, first, shake it out while it's still damp to fluff up the fibers. Use a low heat setting on your dryer and throw in a couple of dry tennis balls to help redistribute and fluff the fibers evenly. If it’s not fully dry and fluffed, air-dry it completely by laying it flat on a rack. Avoid direct heat and high temperatures to prevent the Sherpa from becoming matted. Regular brushing with a soft-bristled brush can also help maintain its fluffy texture.
