Dear mom, you can prevent this problem by tying the strings together before washing the hoodies, love the video nonetheless because I often forget to use my own tip lol!
If you want to use the chopstick method but the hole is too small to fit both the string and chopstick through at the same time, just tape the very end of the string and chopstick together, not overlapping. I did that with an old paintbrush and it worked perfectly!
Thank you for posting your trial and error !!! I used the straw method, threaded my hoodie in less than a minute!! This video is very helpful and appreciated ❣️👍
I love this so much. I had some gym shorts and this is pure genius. I love the fact that there's a mom channel like this. Gotta love the cottage industry.
Thank you so much for your wonderful post. I was able to restore my brand new hoodie My hoodies have the metal hoops, the zip ties worked best. I used the smallest one I had in my elec kit. * Just a note to anybody using this method, *** be sure to wrap the end of your string around the zip tie and tape it with the very small amount of tape *** it works the best. 🤠
Purchased a hoodie for my Grandson..1st wash string came out..Low and behold I goggled, and sure enough, there u were.The straw method worked less then a minute..Thank u
If you have a plastic straw like the ones you get from fountain sodas you can put a single cut from the top to the bottom of the straw and place the hoodie string inside of it and the straw will naturally close over the hoodie string so you can pull the string through the hoodie with out needing to use a stapler or tape
if you don't have tape, you can use a paperclip and ziptie by stabbing one end of the paperclip into the string and the other through the hole in the ziptie, then pushing the ziptie through. this is what I did since I didn't have any tape thank you for the video!!! it was extremely helpful ❤
Thanks for your help, my sister’s hoodie uses a chain as the drawstring but I taped it to the end of a chopstick (didn’t have any straws around) to shove it through and it worked like a charm!
IVE NEVERRR HEARD OF THE BOBBY PIN ONE AND THANK YOU SO MUCH BECAUSE IVE HAD A HOODIE WITH NO STRING FOR MONTHS AND I GAVE UP AFTER HEARING THE STRAW METHOD BECAUSE IT WAS TOO BIG TO FIT BUT THE BOBBY PIN WORKED THANK YOUU😂❤❤❤
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I used a metal straw to push the string through my son’s sweat shorts. The first time was a fail - the tape and string detached half way through. Once I applied more tape, it was a go! Thanks again.😄
Thank you for this, I used a straw and a safety pin and it took 20 seconds!!!! ❤I looked at your video after I almost had it halfway through just working with it with my fingers… lol 😂 then I was like it has to be an easier way! I only had a safety pin and a straw… I put the safety pin through the straw… 😊 thank you 🙏🏾
Thank you thank you thank you!!! ❤❤❤ I had 2 strings to do in hoodies and used the straw method with tape, it worked sooooo much better than a silly safety pin! 2 hoodies in a minute and a half thanks to you!
I We always used coat hanger & straightened it out-use cheap hangar that's easy 2 straighten. Weave string around hangar & keep pushing hangar all the way through. Unweave string @ end & hold both ends of string & pull hangar out. Done in 2 minutes.
This was the problem with my winter coat that had a hood string. The material was to heavy for the hair pin or paper clip method. I tried the 'straw method" That did not work because the straw fit to tight in the gourmet. Then I tried to push the string through with a small metal rod that I cut from an old wire close hanger. That almost worked. I got an inch away from the other side and gave up. Then! Then I pulled the whole string out, taped the end of the string to the end of the wire ( I used scotch tape) and pushed it through in about 10 seconds. So there you have it. easy peasy.
This was awesome advice and a great video . I have so many band hoodies that the string falls out, from time to time . Thank you for the video and help on this . Saved me tons of time and frustration . : )
Thank you so much!! I just bought matching hoodies for me and my pup (don’t judge 😂) from SparkPaws. I threw it in the was post making sure they fit, and the strings came out on both hoodies. 😫 I will try the zip tie method.
I use a straightened clothes hanger. Cut and straighten the clothes hanger with pliers, tape the drawstring to one end, then fish it through the hood. You can bend a loop in the clothes hanger so it doesn't snag the hood. Very fast. Then tie knots in the drawstring ends so it doesn't come out again. I also cut them short. They'll be plenty long enough to tie when you draw the hood tight.
The straw one was so easy, only difficult part is getting it through the straw, but I found if you twist the string it goes in better, kinda have to twist, then force the twist in, then repeat but it was so easy after I got through the first step
If you have knitting needles, those are the best. Use a knitting needle with a small knob. Tape the string to the pointed end and put the knob in first. For smaller holes, use a double pointed knitting needle.
queen. i just got a band hoodie off the boy i’m seeing and the string came out first wash. this was so helpful!!
So glad I could help! 👑
literally my exact issue rn im wearing my boyfriends band hoodie and the string came out first wash too
Mine also came out first wash 😭
The "straw technique" FANTASTIC!!!! Matter of seconds...DONE! Thanks...

The straw technique just saved me an hour of struggling. Thank you!
i used a pen, got all the stuff out of the pen and turned it into a straw. it was really helpful!
Great solution!

Thank you for posting your trial and error !!! I used the straw method, threaded my hoodie in less than a minute!! This video is very helpful and appreciated ❣️👍

Google no further! This is the best video to put your string into pants or a hoodie.
Thank you so much!!! Just washed my favorite hoodie 5 minutes ago, immediately saw the string was out, this is so helpful! Love videos like this.
Glad I could help!
Dude my string fell off as soon as I washed it and this helped so much. 👍
Great to hear!
The string taped to a straw was PERFECT!! Thank you so much. 🎉

This strangely gave me more confidence with this everyday fear.
Just used your straw method to help out my coworker. Took me lass than a minute! Thank you!
Excellent! The bobby pin worked well for my small camera lens pouch. I'm sure the zip tie or straw will work on my hoodies. Thank you, Mom!

My granddaughter and I were thinking it would take forever, but yet it only took less than a minute with that chopstick hack. Thank you so much! ❤
Nice! I'm so glad it worked for you!
Oh my gosh, thank you! With a zip tie, I got it through. Thank you for being sooooo helpful!
So glad it worked!!!
The only thing that works and every other vid told me to use a marker which stained my strings but this was a savior of a $75 hoodie 😅 thank you 🙏
Oh awesome! Glad it worked!
I got a hoodie for Christmas and accidentally pulled the strings out, thank you for your help! I really appreciate it!

That's a good way to do it but I feel like metal hangers are hard to find these days - they're mostly plastic.
ok i feel kinda smart because i was using a pencil to shove it down so i was getting somewhere BUT NOT LIKE THIS YOURE A GENIUS THANK YOU
😊 You're welcome!
For the safety pin, if the hoodie holes are too small. Attach to the string first, then grab pliers and make the pins end smaller.
Good tip!
thank you so much, your a genius. I needed a method that would restring my sweat pants and this was super helpful in that endeavor!
You have solved what I had once believed impossible, tysm
Haha you are welcome!
The straw method worked great. Thank you.
Chopstick method worked best for me. Thanks~
Thanks the straw and staple worked the best and quick !
Your a life saver. The safety pin worked well. 😆

The bobby pin method worked like a charm for me, thank you thank you!!!
That was amazing! Straw worked like a charm... 30 seconds tops. Thanks!
Great to hear!
Genius! The straw worked like a charm when everything else was too big to go through the rivet.
Awesome! Yeah, they're all a bit different but I'm glad the straw worked for you!
Thank you the chopstick one was very helpful.

if you have any metal hangers you can straighten one out, tie one end of the string to the hanger and then feed it through

Use the zip tie and cut the "socket" end off I found was the most effective.
Oh yeah, cutting the end part off would really help! Good tip!
I did the Bobby pin method thank you !!!
Sweet! I saw this too late. I just threw away a hoodie string bc restringing it was too daunting a task 🤦🏾♀️ 😂
