Take your tired or too-long jeans and hem them with a cool fray — no tailor required.
Step 1: Start with ironed jeans to make sure the length is accurate. Try 'em on to triple-check the length and decide where you want to cut and fray.
Step 2: Use chalk to mark the new length of your jeans (you'll cut here before fraying the new hem).
Step 3: Using fabric scissors, cut straight across the chalk line you just drew. This will create a new, raw edge.
Step 4: Look at the fabric up close. You'll see there are threads weaving both vertically and horizontally. (It may be easier to see this by folding up the new hem.) Using a seam ripper or tweezers, begin to pull out threads that run horizontally across the denim.
Step 5: Continue pulling the horizontal threads until the jeans have reached your desired level of fraying.
Step 6: If you want to give your jeans an even more lived-in look, use sandpaper or a pumice stone to rub the hem. You can do the same thing at the knees if you want to extend the distressed effect.
