Push and pull these ends gently for about 5 minutes. Lift the pillow up and repeat these steps of compression and decompressions. Trying movements of your hands down to towards the center of the pillow and a little bit above it. Now rapidly squeeze, let go, and catch the pillow.

Do this several times. After squeezing the pillows, shake them, put them on your bed again, and then beat the pillow with your flat hand and fists on every side. While you fluff the perfect pillow, you'll be singing song all day!

With a bamboo pillow, the concept is no different, but due to the heavier material within, you'll want to take a few extra seconds to get it well aerated and get the memory foam shreds well separated.

First off, give your pillow a good shake and flip it over a few times to help break up any memory foam shreds that may be pushed up against one another.

A very underrated and less-known idea to fluff your pillow is to get nature's help. Once you've followed the above-mentioned steps of fluffing a pillow by hand or a dryer, put the pillow outside to let it be exposed to fresh air.  You can also compress the pillow from both ends by squeezing at the same time and bringing the filling to the center, releasing it quickly to re fluff pillows.

By this, you are giving the needed airflow in and around the pillow. This not only helps eliminate unwanted odors but also helps create a long-term re-fluff.

In case your pillows have lost their thickness due to moisture, then exposing them to the sun might be a game-changer. Usually, pillows lose their volume because of moisture, so the sun can help dry them and increase fluffiness. When patting, molding, and other methods don't do the trick, you should leave your pillow out in the sun for some time.

You could also hang the pillows along with your clothes. About 4-5 hours are usually enough to eliminate the moisture content. Make sure the sun absorbs the moisture. Washing them and drying them in the sun can also be very beneficial.
