[@suhanigulati5834]

the fact that she is still liking comments after 12 years

[@dollicqte]

That's so cute 🥺

[@ladybrokenrope8463]

My 6 year old daughter just watched this with me as we did the cut on her shirt and said "Can we tell her?" I asked what she wanted to say "That this really worked for us. That's what she asked in the end mom." 😂👌🏽😊

[@AuthenblissityMain]

awwwww that is so sweet!!! please tell your daughter i say, "thank you!!" you both really made my day :)

[@EbonyHoopGyal]

Aww she thinks ahead lol

[@AlohaARMYAudra]

THANK YOU for this!! Your instructions were easy to follow and my cut shirts turned out beautiful each time. The chapters were a game changer too. I had to come back to this tutorial and I could easily just go to the section I needed. Awesome!

[@lexis.2006]

Please never take this video down! I'm so excited to try it out!

[@ladybelovely]

This is what you call a classic video!! It is hard to believe you posted this 8 years ago!😮🤭 Whenever I’m about to cut up a t-shirt, I ALWAYS refer to this video! My t-shirts always come out perfect just like you said! Thank you so much!!☺️ Never take it down, never change it!😁

[@soundsofhealing3793]

Same! And now it's been about 12 years. 😂

[@Divinenorman-iy9lw]

I was not born

[@BryghtPro]

You saved my shirt!!! I ordered a Johnny Depp shirt and it came way too big- you saved it for me!

[@crystalwilliams603]

Perfect! The measurement, rounding down, leaving the back of the collar straight across, gentle stretching to create the "roll"...absolutely perfect. Thank you!

[@maliahjobe835]

This tutorial was SOOO helpful. I was able to do it on my first try without screwing up my shirt! MAKE MORE TUTORIALS! THEY ARE SO HELPFUL!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

+Maliah Jobe thank you!!! i'm really happy you found it helpful. :)

[@melgon25]

Girl, these off the shoulder t’s are my jam this summer. They’ve all turned out great thanks to you! Thank you for a great tutorial!

[@juicyjuice24]

Literally just watched this then immediately cut up a t-shirt right after -- it turned out perfect! Loved the "stretching the cut up parts" part of the video, it really finishes the whole look. Thank you for this helpful video!

[@suzinbing9822]

I KNEW THERE WAS A TRICK!!! Only cut the front of the neck, leaving the back in tact; otherwise, the neck is WAY TOO BIG and you've ruined the shirt....Thanks !

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thanks for watching!

[@AdvocatesResource]

Perfect! Tried it and turned my t's into a more dressy fashion statement. Perfect amount of talking. I was able to cut while you were talking and that made the process easy and fast. Everything about this tutorial if FAB!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thank you so much for your kind words - i really appreciate it!

[@OneMillionSpenders]

I just cut my first perfect tee shirt!!! Thank you! Now I’m going to cut up all my boring basic shirts and refresh my wardrobe!!

[@vanessarose5247]

Super easy-to-follow instructions! My first shirt came out perfect! I cut up about 10 other t-shirts I never wear because I'm not too fond of the shape. Thank you!!!

[@jessvaughn8178]

Just found this tutorial and it worked perfectly! I have an oversized t-shirt from a concert I went to with a friend. Such a fun memory, but I never wore the shirt before because it was so big and unflattering. Now, it’s so cute! Thank you for sharing 😊

[@michelemiller8092]

You shared this 10 years ago....but I just tried it & I LOVE it!!!! Thank You!!💙

[@frannylpfan]

I lost my concentration when your pup showed up in frame. How cute!!

[@MsJael2010]

Ha! Us too! My daughter kept saying she wanted to see the puppy again 😁

[@carolrice269]

Great tutorial. I actually cut 3 T'shirts and a sweater I definitely were gonna do away with them..and I didn't mess them up your instructions were on point. THANKS AGAIN

[@raechelyndawn2580]

Thank you. I was pretty much doing it the same but learned a couple of things from you. You are a VERY good teacher with thorough instructions. I loved this video!

[@DammnDestroyah]

It turned out so nice that I think I'm going to do this with every single shirt on my entire closet

[@AuthenblissityMain]

i'm glad it worked out!

[@lesliestory3332]

Thank you so much for recording this "How to" was SO EASY to follow. I wanted an easy go to, to do this, went right to You Tube of course, and clicked on your video first!!! Fabulous, now I can make my shirts with a sexy, slouchy, neck line. So grateful to have your example. 🤩

[@verone12241]

This video was really helpful. Thanks for breaking it down so well. The trick about not cutting the back the same as the front was really helpful. No ruined t shirt for me....even on the first try! Thanks!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

+veronica enck thank you!! i'm really happy you found it helpful! :)

[@kattaliamackie9942]

I watched this vid years ago and have used this technique on sooooo many t-shirts since! Thank you!!!!!

[@ladeerelli]

For one of my daughter's dance classes they need their tshirt cut and I just tried your method on one of her old tshirts and it looks super cute. And yes, definitely round down or go down an inch. Thank you!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thank you so much for your kind words! i'm happy to hear it worked out so well! :)

[@KatrinaBlackwell]

Do you have a recommendation on how many sizes up give the best "slouchy" look overall?

[@anushkadsouza2929]

I have seen many videos on how to get the perfect off the shoulder from a tee. This was really helpful. I loved the way you explained everything so perfectly 😊

[@crumpjulia]

Anushka Dsouza I think I got confused....why did the measurement come into place?

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thanks so much! :)

[@lovelyari9150]

I have messed up soooooo many shirts trying this! Your video has helped me make this style shirt 100% better!!! So glad I came across your videos♥️

[@haleyfreeland8291]

So helpful! I've tried doing it by myself a couple times and this method is a million times better! Thank you!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thank you for your comment... i'm so glad the video helped!! :)

[@seraphinekane7968]

I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to finally google how to cut a t shirt like this, but I’m glad I finally did!! This is a PERFECT design!! Love how my shirts turned out and this will be my go to guide for all of my shirts I cut the neck out of (which is quite a few of them, I hate a tight neck, and this way is so much more beautiful and dainty). Thank you!!!!

[@MiaHessMusic]

I just tried and it worked!! I have a small stack of tees to do now! Thanks from a very hip grandma.

[@courtneyj4651]

I’m so glad I found this very detailed video! I just tried this on a shirt I got today that was super plain and weird fitting, and omg I’m obsessed with how it turned out!! I’m doing this to all my tshirts!

[@joguinn9418]

I don't know why anyone would down vote this when the tutorial is literally perfect. You did the hard work so we don't have to, and I, for one, really appreciate it! Thank you for sharing this with us!!

[@gypsyrose-qq9nz]

i wouldn't down vote this video, but she did the hard work so we don't have too? if u cut a shirt following the instructions u would be doing the same work. Plus, in the 80's it was just cut, stretch n go

[@Sequoyajade]

Thanks girl ❤ I watched multiple videos trying to find the best way to do this and you made it so simple to understand and it looks perfect.

[@renitalewis1188]

Watched it! Eye balled it ! Nailed it!!! I messed up by cutting both layers on other attempts! Never again ! Thanks !

[@juelz0528]

I have wanted to make one of these for a while. After watching your video, I went to the closet, grabbed a shirt and started your video again! I followed your directions and the top came out perfect! Thank you so much! I don't have any experience cutting-making any clothes, this top was my first! I can see I will be making a lot of these! Thank you again!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

yay!! i'm happy to hear your tee turned out well!! :)

[@kellieatkinson9521]

Thank you for this tutorial. I needed to cut a t-shirt for an '80's vibe for a show I am in. First try and it turned out totally awesome!😉 Thanks for the tips to measure, not cut the back of the neck, and to roll. Very helpful!!

[@servicioslinguisticos5502]

Me too! We're doing Flashdance for our jazz recital. 46 and living it up.

[@rizu3776]

Havent been able take the risk of ruining another t-shirt since high school but I decided to I tried it today. And the t-shirt turned out perfect!!! Thank you so much for this tutorial. This is actually the best tutorial on the internet❤️❤️❤️

[@jennifercronin5920]

Might be a silly question…but any changes if you are cutting a sweatshirt? I assume it’s all the same?

[@bonniespruin6369]

Thanks so much! We're going on an 80s cruise and I just did two t-shirts with your instructions! Thanks!

[@sulushin]

Thank you so much!! Totally used your method annd after 1 try on a practice shirt, tried it on my Adele Concert t-shirt . It came out great!!!!!! love it! And didn’t ruin it. Thanks for sharing!

[@nm-yr8gu]

Thanks for this! Wish this was up two years ago, couldn't find anything even close to as helpful as yours is now. It scared me away from cutting my necklines! lol. I shall now try again. :)

[@weRparadox]

This was so useful!! I was nervous to cut my sweatshirt, but it worked out really well.

[@WeemusStudio2017]

Thanks! Works great. Our bass player won't stop making hers. She's buying new t-shirts and using them! They look so cute. Thanks! Love the puppy!!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

haha thanks so much! loved reading your comment :)

[@AuthenblissityMain]

i cut up a whole bunch of my tees too and it really is like having a brand new wardrobe! i'm so glad you found this video helpful! :) x

[@irairod5160]

This was so helpful! I, too, have ruined a handful of t-shirts trying to make them "off the shoulder" and ending up making them "off the torso" because the opening was too large. I wish I could give you more than a thumbs up. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sophiablack230]

I've done it! Twice so far thanks to you and this video!! Thanks so much for helping me to finally feel as though my clothes suit my style and fit my own petite frame. Love

[@lizzyscha5090]

I've searched so long for a way to cut my shirt like this... thank you so much :) :D

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thanks for your comment!! i hope the video was helpful. :)

[@MakeupMobster]

Wow I kind of feel like a god damned idiot because you know how many t-shirts I’ve f’d up over the years???? I didn’t even measure. I just cut like a 1/2” around the collar in the front and pretty much just cut the collar off in the back. Perfect! Thank you so much!

[@TiTi-pm4my]

Same, lol! Just glad they were on old, too-big shirts anyway. Now I can get new t shirts do to this to!

[@roccopepto]

Thank you! I am large busted and high collar t-shirts never looked good...until now! Thanks for this tip. I have been cutting up all my t-shirts all afternoon. It looks so good on its own or with a lacy cami underneath. It's like a have a brand new wardrobe!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

@Amber Atevalu - sorry i can't reply directly to your comment... yes, you can use the same method for a sweatshirt!

[@talayahlewis5005]

It didn't sock

[@hayleycummings3783]

This is amazing, I used this method and then cut some slices out of my tee at the bottom, pulled it like you showed and it looks amazing! So much cuter than just a simple tee, slouchy and comfortable and no longer shapeless on me! So stylish!

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thank you so much for your comment!! :)

@MC Trocio - you can use a string or ribbon cut to the length you need and use that as a guide. :)

Enjoyed your tutorial! I have several t-shirts which I've wanted to wear but the neckline was too tight and the bottom was too narrow... followed your instructions and with other t's I just cut the ribbed neckline off because I did not necessarily need the drop shoulder and what a difference it made !!!! I then cut the sleeve and bottom hems as you did. Thank you for your very well-done informative video...

[@AuthenblissityMain]

thank you for watching and for your kind words!

[@Dream_Land]

Girl, thank you so much for this video. I bought a customized shirt, but I didn't really like the way it looked, fitting wise and with the tutorial, the shirt looks much better than before, thx❤

[@turnoffthetv]

This tutorial is the best! I've always felt strangled by t-shirts and now, I love them. I just chop out the neckline and make it slouchy fabulous. One tip for anyone like me with shaky hands/not the neatest person with scissor: get a rotary cutter from Michael's and a self-healing cutting board. It makes the neckline cut super smooth, works really well when you flip the half neckline piece over to mirror it and it's a breeze for cleaning up any rough edges after your cut.

[@AuthenblissityMain]
