    Have you tried this method? Or do you have another method to dye wigs? Let me know in the comments.

    I love this! So many questions. I have warm coloring instead of cool. Do you think using blond wig would work better to give me a warm tone? I’m 68 but want to try color. The only thing is most colors are cooler and don’t work as well for me.

      I’ve only used grey wigs, but according to color theory, you might be able to use a blond wig if the color you’re going for is warm, like red or warm salmon. Let me know if you try it.

    More questions. Have you tried painting multi colors or maybe add a root to an Unrooted wig? Have u tried this on heat friendly?

    What a great way to fashion up a wig that is gray but not one you like.

    Would rit dye work? Im so excited about the possibilities

    • J Lester on March 16, 2022 at 6:23 am

      If you want to try Rit dye, try the Rit Dyemore line made for synthetics, not the original used for cottons, wools and silks.

    What color ink would you use to get a pink multidimensional wig?

    • Lynne again on March 9, 2022 at 8:24 am

      Start with multidimensional white, platinum, silver wig…or get a rose wig that is multidimensional and dye it… either way just one pink dye will give you 2,3,4 colors depending on the original dimension

    When I get brave I’m going to try to get a burgandy- red. I’m not that confident yet. Thank you for another great video!

  16. nancy anderson on April 24, 2022 at 2:13 am

    Hello I love this idea could you please send a link on where you buy the ink and what colors do you think would look good on a warm skin tone thank you so much

  17. Revell Mach on April 27, 2022 at 8:24 pm

    Have you ever tried putting your ink and alcohol mixture inside a large zip lock back, adding the wig, zipping of course and squeezing it around so it all is soaked,letting it it sit inside the bag. It would seemingly reduce alcohol fumes and lessen getting color on things you might not want it on. This color looks great on you!!

    Where did you buy the ink? Would like to get a blonde wig I have and turn it green.
