Cotton can shrink when washed and dried, especially if exposed to high heat. The initial shrinkage often occurs during the first wash, but additional shrinkage can occur with subsequent washes if the fabric is not pre-shrunk or if it is not washed in cold water. To minimize shrinkage, it’s best to wash cotton in cold water and air dry or use low heat in the dryer. However, it typically won't shrink significantly more than the first time.
No the cotton will not shrink in your dryer
Anything with cotton in it will shrink some if it has not been preshrunk. The amount it will shrink depends on the percentage of cotton in the material. The more polyester the material has the less it will shrink.
Pima cotton will shrink as much as other cottons. Many cotton tops are prewashed for softeness, which should pre shrink them. If not preshrunk and 95-100% cotton, typically pants can shrink up to an inch in length.
