To properly dye your artificial hair, you can use different tools. But with the help of Basma or henna (natural dyes) to achieve a good result will not work. It is better to resort to other materials. For example, even markers or markers will do. You can also use ink or acrylic paints.

With the help of a marker

After that, you need to remove the rod from the felt-tip pen and cut it so that in the end there is a sponge soaked in the desired paint. Next, in cooked dishes, it will be better to use ceramic, pour alcohol, and then dip a sponge into it. Then you can proceed to the very coloring, dropping into the dishes on a thin strand.

When the process is over, it is necessary to dry the wig or the colored curls, which can then be fastened on the hairpins.Drying should be carried out in a natural way so that the base on which the hair rests is not deformed. At the end they should be gently combed.

With the help of batik

Many use for the transformation of wigs fabric dye - batik. This material is good because it is absolutely safe for artificial hair. If any other synthetic paint can harm them or make them brittle, then this can be used, knowing that the hairstyle will remain as luxurious as before. The only negative is that the hair will become a little tougher, so they will have to be combed much more carefully.

Some girls also note another minus of such a staining method. The paint in this case falls unevenly. Therefore, it is advisable to use this dye only if there is a need to dye some strands, and not all of the hair.

Everything is done very simply. Three cans of paint mixed with three liters of water. Artificial strands are immersed in a container with colored liquid. All this is left to insist for three days. And to make the tone lay down more evenly, once a day the liquid must be gently mixed. On the fourth day, the strands are taken out and washed under running water until it is clean. After that, the hair must be thoroughly dried and well combed. Such coloring stays long and looks natural.

Ink

In order to dye hair with ink, you need to choose a suitable shade, wear thick rubber gloves and with a cotton swab slowly and very carefully process each strand. Having achieved the desired tone, the hair is wiped and carefully combed.

It is necessary to work with the ink as carefully as with iodine (which can also be used to dye nylon wigs), because ink and iodine stains are very poorly washed.

Acrylic paints

If all previous methods seem too ridiculous and time consuming, then you can go a simpler way. A fast and modern way to dye artificial strands - using cans with acrylic paints.

The process is so simple that even a teenage girl can handle it. By the way, it is worth noting that The same method of painting is used on dolls. Since the artificial hair and wig of any Barbie differ little, you can safely work with this material. Hue is saturated and very persistent. The paint is not printed anywhere.

But we are talking only about high-quality acrylic paints. It is better to buy them on specialized sites or in stores for artists. And in order to simplify the process of applying, it is necessary to choose a tool in cans. Working with them is extremely easy. Artificial curls are simply laid out on the newspaper, the balloon is pre-shaken, after which the paint is neatly sprayed onto the strands.

As in other cases, freshly dyed hair should be thoroughly dried for at least three hours. After that, colored locks just need to comb. This is best done with a good comb.

Sometimes in life you want to make a little bright colors. The easiest way to do this correctly is to change hair color. And in order not to harm them, you should use artificial strands.
