how do you fray?cut blue jeans ?

Question

I know you can buy them like that but are there any speical hints that will help me ?

Answer 1

scissors, sand paper.. and patience

Answer 2

Fraying your own is cheaper. Cut them with a little extra distance from where you want the fray to end. The frayed part will not protect your privacy and you can always trim it later if you have too much but you can't put it back if you over do. Wash them if they are new. Older jeans are easier to fray because excess starches and dyes are gone. Work it with your fingers first to loosen the weave a bit. Then you can pull out the cross weave threads. A comb or a sraight pin will help you to pluck them to where you can grab them a few at a time.

Answer 3

Cut them to the lenght you like, them pull on the threads and they will fray, its a little harder on jeans as denim is a strong fabric, but it can be done. The more the jeans have been worn the easier it is to do.

Answer 4

take a ruler an lay it across the bottom hem, draw a pencil line and cut.. or follow hem line and cut.. wash jeans and they will begin 2 fray more and more with each washing ,, easy : )

Answer 5

Once you cut jean & wash them, they will naturally start to fray.

Answer 6

Cut them to the length you want and then bunch them up at the ends. Then take like a wire brush (like the ones you use to clean grills) and just brush it back and fourth across the ends fast. That should do it. :)
