Adding some rubbing alcohol will make the day penetrate the hair a little better and dunking it into ice water with vinegar and/or salt before rinsing it will help the color stay…. Also some fabric softener in the rinse will help tangles.

Thanks for another helpful video. Its so awesome having your channel to use for reference. With me getting more and more into synthetic wigs Im running some issues that you are obviously very very familiar with and your videos are here to help me, so ty ty ty! I need to dye a new wig I just got ( the one I told you about that has the frizzy looking bangs) I ordered the color Medium brown and it looks more like a light ashy brownish blondish. Not what I was going for at ALL so dying it pronto. Then I will need to do the bangs when you put that video up. Im so annoyed that wig costed me $240 and I have to do some major work on it just so that Im happy with the wig😖. Im never gonna spend that amt ever agin when I have found some awesome awesome wigs from ebay and amazon for $50-100.

@ASMREUPHORICSTIMULATION 2 года назад

SUPER CUTE I love the color and thanks for the tip about hot water and curls I have one wig that I think the bottom is a little too wavy that I like to lessen the curl, I will keep that hot water trick in mind!!! Also, I just received the 4 new wigs that I bought on Shein and they are stunning. Mind you one of them the wig cap seems a little warped and it seems there is way too much hair in the front that does not blend well with the bangs, I may have to do some layering and styling to make it more wear able. but the other 3 are stunning!

@pjgraham2211 Год назад

a hundred years ago we used rite dye on human hair wigs, we created formulas for various colors.... they were heavily processes so you could not use bleach or tints to alter the color or refresh them.... as a novice I tried to bleach one and the hair turned to over build spaghetti with in 5 minutes..... all we had as an extreme condition then was a claroil product called metalex.... I soaked it overnight and it got rid of the zigzag in the hair, if you know what I mean by that... saved it... but for sure it wouldn't last long... 🌻

Please advise how to tone down the yellowish of a blonde WAVY synthetic wig..just wanted to clarify if using the RIT dye for wavy wig fabric with 99% alcohol

@JesseMSimons 3 года назад

Yes. You can tone it like that. Rinse with cold water.

@littlem5771 3 года назад

very cool!! how come the dye didn't change the color of the root and base?

@JesseMSimons 3 года назад

Because the root is darker then the color we were using. That’s why I usually recommend doing this with a blonde based wig. You can’t really lighten a synthetic wig. I do have a video that shows you how to add highlights to your darker wigs but it’s not the same process.

@jonatanaugust6793 3 года назад

Hi, thanks for the video, one question, can you achieve the same results with warm water instead of boiling hot? Since this might affect the life span of the wig.

@JesseMSimons 3 года назад

Unfortunately hot is the way to go it will get you the best results. you can try using less heat but more then likely won't take the color as well.

@tesswasney8171 11 месяцев назад

What about a lace front or part? How do you keepnit from changing color?

@JesseMSimons 11 месяцев назад

I haven’t really had issues with it dying the lace. If I go really dark sometimes the lace will be “tinted” but I usually add concealer to my part and hairline anyway to help with any knots so it’s never been a noticeable issue for me.

@mollisenne2258 Месяц назад

How did the cap particularly for the part come out

@JesseMSimons Месяц назад

It darkens the cap but didn’t tint the lace. I add some concealer to my parts anyway to help define them and clean them up more so I would definitely recommend doing that after if you want to help re define your part.

@misslady788 Год назад

Hello, I have a dark brown wig that I want to lighten to a medium/lite brown. Can you give me some tips on how to do this? I only see videos dying blonde wigs. Thanks

@debbiewatson1506 Год назад

I dyed my synthetic short wig in the about mentioned Rit hair & followed the exact directions except I didn’t leave my wig in very long as I did not want it too dark. However, it has totally ruined the Shaw & curl of the wig. The hairs just stick out in all directions with frizz on top. Any suggestions on salvaging this wig? The shape & style was my favorite part. It was just a little too blonde for my taste

@JesseMSimons Год назад

Can you send me photos. Either on Facebook/IG or email me at wigsupport@jmsimons.com

@cyntgrant114 10 месяцев назад

Using your favorite curlers/rods, and mosses. Roll it up, the mosses makes it easier 2 roll. Boil a pot of water, then remove from heat. Dip the wig several times, slowly in and out of the hot water. Allow it to cool off before removing the rods. (BTW, You can also use a steamer to relax any hard looking curls). ...And hot water/steamer are two of the best ways 2 bring a synthetic wig back 2 life, relax it, curl it, if its not/or not suer if it is "Temperature Resistant' for heated styling tools. Hope this helps.

@jayne0814 Год назад

Did the cap turn blue (inside and sides of the wig)? I noticed that the part did not appear blue

@JesseMSimons Год назад

No usually you don’t get to much staining on the cap unless it is a blonde cap then you may end up with it dying some.

@shinycharms 3 месяца назад

Does the regular rit still work?? That's the only one i have and I'm trying to make a wig go from light brown to dark brown

@JesseMSimons 3 месяца назад

It will work it just doesn’t deposit color on the wigs as well. Use some salt in the water as well to help it some.

@theladyisabelle Год назад

Not sure if you will see this but here I go...could I color a wig that I don't want to loose the curl pattern on using 90% alcohol? I want to use graphite dye more rit...

@JesseMSimons Год назад

You can still use water to dye the wig. You just need to use lukewarm water not hot. Also add some salt to help the color adhere to the wig. And make sure you let it sit for a lot longer. I would say at least an hour. If you use alcohol it's just going to tone the wig and not pick up any actual color from the dye. Hope that helps!

@MrsNicecamera 10 месяцев назад

So which method do you prefer between this and the acrylic ink?

I prefer this method. It is much easier to control the outcome and color coverage.

I have a blonde wig that I really like but the roots came with this fake brownish color is there a way I can get the brown removed to just be an all-blonde with no roots

I would use a small amount of brown then to just add some depth and almost tone the wig of that makes sense. Then you can root it with root spray.

You would need it to be heat resistant to do this method. I am going to be doing a video on another dying method that doesn’t require any heat. This would be a good option for you if your wig isn’t heat safe.

If the wig is heat safe. Then you definitely can you just want to make sure you pin the curls up so it cools off and it's form don't just drop it like you would normal hair.

QUESTION! So I dyed 2 of my synthetic wigs using this exact method. One of them using the same blue color but when I went to straighten it after it dried, my hands were covered in blue dye by the time I was done. I rinsed till the water was clear and everything. Did this happen to you? I rooted a wig this way too and the same thing is happening but with the brown color 😭help meeee

@JesseMSimons 3 года назад

Unfortunately dyes made for hair usually won’t work on synthetic wigs since it’s not actual hair and doesn’t absorb the same way as human hair would. You can absolutely try it but I can’t guarantee that it will work. The RIt synthetic dye is specifically made for synthetic fiber which is what these wigs are made of.
