Wig Sharpie Dyeing
« on: December 23, 2008, 08:48:10 pm »
Hey guys!
I got a Hanna Montana wig from Joanns [IT WAS ON SALE!] For $1.50
SO I cut and styled this wig. The quality wasn't that shitty so I decided to work with it.
I cut bunches of hair off, and I actually plan to style it into Zexion 8D Donno if I can do it or not...
Whatever it was a Dollar fifty wig.
This is what it looked like after I was done with cutting it and washing it and attacking it with a blow dryer to make it straight:

So you know that oh so much used sharpie dying method everyone uses to dye their wigs?
Well I tried it, as a test.
I only used one blue sharpie marker so I was expecting it to turn out ehh~ since i was using a small amount of alcohol.
I started to spray it...but no color was coming out so I started getting pissed...
After spraying the sample with the alcohol until it was covered i  thought it would be easier just to directly put the sharpie on the wig.
[So I did.]
I washed it out and it turned out okay. Here's the results on the sample:

The one on the left is the sharpie dyed one and the one on the right is the original.

REMEMBER I ONLY USED ONE SHARPIE~
