For Anybody wondering if this works, yes it does. My mother has been dyeing our families clothes, towels, etc. With this method for years. 1 bottle of dye can dye way more than what it says on the label. It's best to dye your clothing on warm sunny days, so that after the clothes have been sitting in the dye mixture for a few hours they can bake in the sun for another few hours.
@@jmoney881 Nope, doesn't affect the design at all. There's another video on her where a girl dyed her sublime shirt black and the design was completely unaffected.
Hey there Isaiah 👋🏻 Just popping in to say thank you for the simple and straightforward tutorial. I went ahead and tested this out with my black jackets and black work pants on 06/14/2022 and can confirm your method worked! They’re pitch black and look brand new. To anyone who wants some additional tips on dyeing your clothes: - Make sure to wash the clothes first before you dye anything so the stains won’t appear visible after. - Recommend using thick dish washing gloves and stirring with hands to really get in there for the 30 minute method. - Skip washing the clothes after dyeing like he mentioned. Air dry it and wash with other black clothes when they get dirty again. The black will reabsorb back into clothes when rubbing around the washing machine. Prefer the shortest cycles possible with cold water to improve the odds of colors lasting longer. Use Woolite Darks detergent to improve color retention. Anyway thanks again and good luck to the rest of you. What he speaks is legit and it works 💯
Thank you so much!! You gave me all the answers I needed without taking an hour of my day! Your straight to the point, no frills, locals only approach is awesome and I appreciate you! 🙏🔥👍
This tutorial is better than the one on the official rit dye channel. I hate RUclips tutorials that make you read instead of narrate them, if I wanted to read the instructions I would’ve looked on google.
Thank you so much for making a simple straight forward video! Everyone else was talking about something completely irrelevant to dye before the video even started!
Issiah, I just watched 5 how-to vids and yours is the BEST. Thanks you for this. Today is the day. I'm going out in the back yard and DOING it. No more fearful procrastinating. OK. Maybe a little bit more procrastinating..... But thanks to you now I'm only procrastinating out of laziness - because of you there's no more fear.
Dying clothes feels like a revelation to me. Bought some nice used jeans the other day but the color wasn't to my liking and as I wasdriving past the craft store it hit me: I can change the color to exactly what I want :)
What do you do with clothes with big logos like adidas hoodies with the trefoil logo I have some black clothes I want to dye them black cause they’re very faded but I don’t want to ruin the logo
THANK YOU!!! This is exactly the tutorial I needed to help me dye my shower curtain AND all of my black clothing. I so appreciate you!!! You just saved me so much money!
Love your video, you explain really good, also, the fact that you forgot to add the dish liquid and added it after, really loved it bc I often forget to do things, so I feel good knowing I can add it later w no problem. ❤❤
Thanks for the tutorial💖💖 I've seen a couple videos and everyone chooses washing machines to dye cloths because it's "easier" but I saw a couple comments people say it ruined their washing machine😔🙈
This is super helpful. I bought three pairs of jeans and they’re really nice but I hate the color, and wanna dye them black. Again, this was super helpful, thank you!!!
This is the best way for me to learn. I saw few videos of other people and, I almost follow them until I saw this tutorial. I love the way of how he explains the steps to follow in an easy way., Thanks. 👍💖
Thanks for the tutorial! I am a reseller and dyeing stained clothes feels like the biggest life hack. SOOOOOO many people will throw away/donate the nicest things over the littlest stains!
Dyeing black jeans seems pretty easy since you won’t see any flaws with color overall. I wanted to dye some cotton curtains and bright sunny yellow but I’ve heard that RIT color is not accurate when dyeing to lighter shades and there is talk of bleeding and washing out of color. Is this fixed by using the fixative or do I have to worry about color washing out and staining other clothes when put in washing machine. What’s the easiest and best fabric dye for cotton material (tie dye)? Thanks
I don’t know what’s in that color dye fixative but you could probably just dip your clothes after they died in a bucket with water and white vinegar. I do it with new clothes that are possibly going to bleed or bathing suits when I first get them and it helps keep the color.
Did the thread stay the same colour ? Or did some dye get into it ? I know it doesn’t effect polyester thread how ever I’m worried it might slightly tint my thread. How did yours turn out ?
Thank You Because The Dye Kept Coming Out And I Didn't Have The Stay Dye Rit Bottle And I Had My Clothes Soaking For A Week Because I Thought I Kept Doing It Wrong, Then I Added More Dye 😂😂 Thank You These Steps Are Shorter I Was Worker Too Hard lol
Thank you! 😀Looks great! What color dye should be used in order to make deep bright pink denim jeans into dark or light blue or beige?😀 Does anyone know?
So i have a black shirt needing to get back black. But on the back it has reflective letters do I have to cover the letters up or the dye wine damage it?
What if you are dying multiple jeans do you dump out the old dye bucket and start fresh or do you just add more dye? Also, what do you do with the liquid when you're done do use dump it in the ground or in a drain does it stain in your tub?
Will this work on clothes that isn’t black. I saw these shorts that fit perfectly but they were light blue. I want to dye them black but I don’t know if it’ll work
Thanks for the information... everything you describe for work clothes fits my description. Q: approximately How long does the die last in comparison using the dye lock and does material matter? some of my work pants have 8 to 12% polyester
Hey! You shouldn’t do that because dye pigments are not always healthy for you. We were taught in art school that black dye can be carcinogenic and cadmium pigments can be poisonous
I need to dye really puffy clothes and it can't be washed or fully submerged, is it possible to put it in a spritz bottle and hope it penetrates fully?
I want to trust this one more than the manufacturer video, this has way more views. I may do some paper too, but probably put it in a seperate smaller thing. Thank you!

What about like sweaters or shirts with like designs? Does it affect the design?
@@jmoney881 Nope, doesn't affect the design at all. There's another video on her where a girl dyed her sublime shirt black and the design was completely unaffected.
@@jmoney881 if it's DTG printing it might be affected, screen printed or vinyl designs are safe because they aren't porous
Can dying 5 shirts in the mixture for 45 minutes still be effective?
How long does it last before you need to redeem? Did u use the white bottle in your clothes as well to make it last longer?
Finally! Someone who explains with detail and thoroughly! Thank you my guy!
No he didnt, whats the salt do? Why hot water? Whats the soap do? What happens if you use less water?
@@komamix I'm simply following the directions on the Rit bottle
@@komamix Peter, its gonna be okay. lmao

That’s hilarious. Made my day.

Definitely! I was wondering if it was time to buy more black shirts because of the fading. And then it hit me! 😄
Used jeans?🤨
@@kingvan143 Yeah, it's called thrifting
Wish it was that simple with cars 😂
Best tutorial I've seen. Results work I've done it many times! Thank you for the video, needed a refresher.
What do you do with clothes with big logos like adidas hoodies with the trefoil logo I have some black clothes I want to dye them black cause they’re very faded but I don’t want to ruin the logo
That logo is just gonna have to change color, anything cotton or thread will change
This is the most useful tutorial I found on how to dye fabric this way. Thank you so much kind sir🙇🏽♀️

Oh and throw some ice in there too if you want. The coldness helps lock it in a little extra too
R.I.P clothes lol ... dyed not died ha ha
@@tijay8507 this guy.
RIT may as well just link this video on their website. Thank you for this video I plan on dying a pants this weekend.
After all these steps do you put them in the washer then dryer ?
Thank you for a thorough and easy explanation
Great video thank you. Would of loved a before and after photo
Did the thread stay the same colour ? Or did some dye get into it ? I know it doesn’t effect polyester thread how ever I’m worried it might slightly tint my thread. How did yours turn out ?
This is a great tutorial, Isaiah. Thank you for sharing. Can I dye any color, any fabric using Rit? I want to dye an Olive Green Vest Navy Blue?
Thank You Because The Dye Kept Coming Out And I Didn't Have The Stay Dye Rit Bottle And I Had My Clothes Soaking For A Week Because I Thought I Kept Doing It Wrong, Then I Added More Dye 😂😂 Thank You These Steps Are Shorter I Was Worker Too Hard lol
I did that too!! Why are these answers so damned hard to find!! Lol, has the color faded already or has it stayed vivid from the longer soak?
@@Michelle-ks4cm u need the stay dye fixative bottle also
How well does it work on blended clothes. Like the nylon cotton cargo pants etc?
What do you do after with the buckets (I did it in my bathroom)
Thank you! 😀Looks great! What color dye should be used in order to make deep bright pink denim jeans into dark or light blue or beige?😀 Does anyone know?
Easy follow instructions. Rad dude.😊 thanks
could the fixative be added later if i think it's needed? the clothing i am dyeing is for a costume, so it won't be worn or washed super often
Being watching these kind of vids alot. Embarking on some fabric dyeing and trying to get as much as I can. 🤣
I wear alot of black clothes, I'm a bartender and I work security, this video is extremely helpful
Thank you
Would you try this with a suit?
Great vid going into dyeing with confidence
Thank you for making this video you helped me a lot.
After i dyed and dump the clothing in the color stay, should i put it in the washer and dryer? Or just let it air dry?
I got a fleece hoodie that I want to dye. Should I buy the color dye fixative or use the vinigar method?
Hi! Very cool tutorial! Is it also possible to dye lighter clothing black?
Do i put it straight to the washing machine after or do i let it air fry first
So i have a black shirt needing to get back black. But on the back it has reflective letters do I have to cover the letters up or the dye wine damage it?
I want to dye my jeans. Will the dye also color the stitching threads because i want them to contrast with the color off the jeans
I got a lot of black outfits thank you so much
What is the dish soap use for? I never understood that when drying clothes. Thanks
Thank you! Have you ever tried it in the washer?
EXCELLENT presentation!
Best dying video. Thank you!
Great video. Will that die work on rugs? I want to change three look of my bathroom and dye my lime green rugs gray.
Do they have to air dry? Will the dryer fade then right away?
What if you are dying multiple jeans do you dump out the old dye bucket and start fresh or do you just add more dye? Also, what do you do with the liquid when you're done do use dump it in the ground or in a drain does it stain in your tub?
Will this work on clothes that isn’t black. I saw these shorts that fit perfectly but they were light blue. I want to dye them black but I don’t know if it’ll work
Would you mix in the fixitive with the coloring
Thanks for the information... everything you describe for work clothes fits my description. Q: approximately How long does the die last in comparison using the dye lock and does material matter? some of my work pants have 8 to 12% polyester
It lasts for a very long time.
how long would it usually last without the white bottle
Got a question, If I were to dye multiple items, do I start back with clean hot water again? Or can I just add new bottle of dye and continue.
I kept my jeans on and jumped into a tub with dye--and now I am a black man too! Proud and beautiful--Love it !
Hey! You shouldn’t do that because dye pigments are not always healthy for you. We were taught in art school that black dye can be carcinogenic and cadmium pigments can be poisonous
Just what I needed! 👌🏼
Thank you so much… I really appreciate… it’s the dyetitive for me
Will this work going from an army green color to black?
hey good video . one question did you use 2 jeans and just 1 bottle of black dye ? did work well like that ?
What do you do with the dye water after? Just down the down? Or toilet?
I just bought a bunch of new pants on JCPENNEY sale. Clearance. $11.99 each. Yay! I could use this to change a sweater to white.
You'll need the rit color stripper for that
Wondering if i can dye my navy blue denim pants into black with rits?
Thanks for your help step by step. ❤how you demonstrate. Thanks so much
Great video. How do you dispose of the dye-bath? Does it stain porcelain?
I bought the dye but forgot about the fixative. Will it still work?
I need to dye really puffy clothes and it can't be washed or fully submerged, is it possible to put it in a spritz bottle and hope it penetrates fully?
Will this work on polyester?
Where did you buy those buckets, perfect size
Thanks dude - I have a favorite black Rothco M65 in desperate need of re-blackification
Reblackifcation=LOL
I want to trust this one more than the manufacturer video, this has way more views. I may do some paper too, but probably put it in a seperate smaller thing. Thank you!
So if you don’t wash the colors won’t rub off on your skin?
Do you want to use "Cold" dye water or warm?
I'm new at this.
Also why dish soap?
