DIY Dip Dye Jeans

This Pair of Jeans is all about turning heads, the graduating dye style will definitely give you, your own fashion statement. This jeans is perfect to emphasize your hips, & make you look sexier, but if you have a pear body shape, where you have wider hip area, then you should definitely reverse the color gradation, & make the jeans darker from the top & fading towards the bottom into the lighter shade.

You’ll need:
- Old pair of light blue or white jeans
- Pair of  Rubber Gloves
- Black Fabric Dye
- Dark Blue Fabric Dye
- a Large bucket

Start with a pair of acid wash skinnies (and make sure they’re not your favorite pair & if the jeans already have a light shade, then you don’t need to bleach them).  Mix black and dark blue Dylon, and follow the instructions on the pack to create a dye bath – you generally just need salt and warm water, to which you add the dye powder.
Dip the bottom of the jeans into the dye bath to about 5cm lower than you want the color to go, then lift out and leave the very hems of the jeans in the dye for about 45 minutes. To achieve a cool gradient effect with the dye, slowly lift and clip the pants an inch or two every 15 to 20 minutes. Then (with rubber gloves on) rub the colour gently up the jeans to get the smooth colour gradation. Hang the jeans outside for 1/2 hour or so, making sure they won’t drip on anything that will stain. Finally, rinse thoroughly in cold water (and follow any other instructions on the dye pack for setting the colour), dry, and wear!

Remember to follow the washing and care instructions for the dye you use before you wear the pants.
Also, if you’re really feeling inspired, you can use this same method to dip dye just about anything!
