To stretch clothes with hair conditioner, mix one tablespoon of conditioner with a bowl of warm water. Soak the garment for 10-15 minutes, allowing the fibers to relax. After soaking, gently squeeze out excess water without wringing. Lay the garment on a flat surface and gently stretch it to the desired size, using weights to hold it in place while it dries. This method is especially useful for knit fabrics.
