Directions Semi Permanent Hair Colour, Denim Blue, 0.1 kg

Product Information

Wear rubber gloves to protect hands from getting stained and to insulate them when working with hot water. You’ll want to select a denim that is in the same undertone as your own colouring. If you’re not sure of your colours or undertone get a personal colour analysis online here. In a separate container, dissolve 1 cup 240 mL of salt in 4 cups 950 mL of very hot water if dyeing natural fibers like cotton or linen. If dyeing silk or nylon, mix 1 cup 240 mL of white vinegar with 2-4 cups 470-950 mL of hot tap water. To clean the washing machine: Wipe around the inside of the lid and pour a little bleach through the internal dispenser (if there is one) as dyes can get into these areas. Then, fill washer to the highest water level there is and select the hottest water temperature setting. Add detergent with 2 cups 470 mL of chlorine bleach and run a full wash cycle with 3 old towels. Got a pair of jeans that are too cool for your warm palette? Want to change how they look? Whether it’s just to warm up the blue (or cool it down) or to completely change the colour?

Details of other color codes including equivalent web safe and HTML & CSS colors are given in the table below. Also listed are the closest Pantone® (PMS) and RAL colors. To enhance the color and reduce color bleeding, use Rit ColorStay Dye Fixative immediately after dyeing and before washing, following these instructions. Next, measure the width of your wrist with a tape measure and take 2cm off this measurement. My wrist was 18cm wide but minus the 2cm this was 16cm. This is the length the braided seams need to be for the DIY denim bracelet.Darker washes are brighter; more intense and solid in their colour and are best suited to those people with dark palettes. Mid Wash Denim

Dark non-distressed denim is considered the dressiest shade of jeans. These indigo blues tend to be cooler sorts of bluesand they fit better with cooler palettes. Light wash could go either way– some a slightly cool, some have a hint to warmth. It’s great for a lighter palette. The colour tends to be muted so it’s better for those with muted, soft, smoky coloring than those with bright coloring. Muted colors always recede so even though they’re a bit lighter, they still have some receding qualities. When desired color is achieved, remove from dyebath. Fabric will look darker when wet and will dry lighter. Set water temperature to the hottest possible setting and a wash cycle of at least 30 minutes or longer. The longer the item is in the dye, the darker the color will be. Test color by dipping a paper towel into the dyebath. If color is too light, add more dye. If color is too dark, add more water.

Seams from old jeans – I used the long seams on the inside leg of a pair of jeans. These are the double-stitched seams. Cut them out of the jeans as close to the stitching as possible. Wearing rubber gloves, mix powder or well-shaken liquid dye with 4 cups 950 mL of very hot water. Stir well. To enhance the color: (1) add 1 cup 240 mL of salt when dyeing fabrics containing cotton, rayon, ramie or linen; (2) add 1 cup 240 mL of vinegar when dyeing fabrics containing nylon, silk or wool.

Dark Wash Denim

I love to upcycle my old jeans into fun crafts for my home. But occasionally, I also love repurposing them into new things to wear, like this DIY denim bracelet and the denim bow ties I made a couple of weeks ago. This is a very affordable craft, as it is made from upcycled fabric. The bracelets can be made in any size. The way the bracelet is fastened, with a lobster clasp and chain, can be adjusted to fit wrists of different sizes. We currently accept photos for Manic Panic, Adore, Herman’s Amazing, Stargazer, Directions, Crazy Color, and Headshot Hair Dyes. You do NOT have to buy the dyes from Beeunique, and can submit your special effects photos by using our Add Photo To Gallery form.

Fiber content and weight affect how color appears. If you are in doubt as to whether your fabric will accept dye or achieve the color you want, we recommend testing a swatch first. If you are looking for one fun temporary hair dyeing experience then why not try theLa Riche Directions Colour Hair Dye in Denim Blue.

Jewellery fastening set comprises ribbon ends 25mm, a lobster claw clasp, o-rings and a short chain. Coloured denim is a fun fashion trend, but buy cheaply as it won’t be the longest-lasting trend. The brighter the colour of the jeans the more you will find wearing a top in a neutral colour works best, so your outfit is not too overwhelming. Choose a colour that suits your colouring too – so not too bright if you suit a more muted or smoky palette. How to Change the Colour of Your Jeans
