Actual tutorial/steps for doing this yourself
0) Pre-wash clothing (it will help bleach/dyes to stick/penetrate into fabric more... some clothing has protective layer on it when shipped)
1) Get shirts wet if you want a smoother fade to colors and bleach (keep dry if you want crisper edges)
2) Wring excess water from clothing (if you wetted it)
3) Take your time to really neatly spiral/pleat your shirts
4) Bleach (make sure bleach is FRESH, it greatly diminishes after even 6 months)
- You can use about 50% bleach, 50% water
- Don’t let sit for too long or it will damage the shirt (maybe 5-15 minutes)
- Don’t forget both sides of your shirt if you want to dye both
5) Make a gallon of hydrogen peroxide water (1 cup hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water)
- It will neutralize the bleach
- Don’t untie your shirt if you plan to dye it after bleaching
- Let it sit for 20 minutes, then wring out as much water as you can
6) Make soda ash water (this helps the dyes stick by increasing the Ph levels)
- Using hot water will help it dissolve
- Let sit for 20-120 minutes, then wring out as much as you can
7) Dye
- Apply till it drips out the back
- Flip it over and apply dye to the other side
8) Wait 8-24 hours
9) Run the shirt under cold water
10) Wash cold and then air dry
