      @@JesseMSimons the photos from which we choose our wigs often looks lighter because of their lighting. I just bought one I thought was streaked, even the description said it had multiple colors, but I got one much like the one you just used but more red. I didn’t want to return it, I liked the style, but can’t handle solid red. I’ve been looking at that spray and wondering. But isn’t that a glue you used to seal it? Just don’t know that product.

      @btomas225 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      thanks for the heart but I put my money where my mouth is as the saying goes and decanted a can of the product you describe and it yields a remarkably small amount of pigment. Not enough to even brush one or bundled strands....So to those of you wanting to do this you need to follow the original poster's instruction. Decanting will not work unless you have very deep pockets, that is. ;

      @@cherylj7460 I have never noticed. I am streaking a few pieces of hair though. You could wash the wig afterwards. Put it in warm water with 1/2 C white vinegar. I swish it, let it sit 5-10 min. Toss shampoo/conditioner or whatever you normally do to wash your synthetic. White Vinegar removes every odor I have ever found. I put 1C in every wash! Acts as a softener too. NO vinegar smell stays behind. Could also hit the wig with dry shampoo or comb through with a used dryer sheet. Careful the dryer sheet can leave a waxy feel. That is why I suggest a used sheet. Last tip, sniff the marker before using it. Name brand Sharpie and Amazon brand "sharpies" do not carry the same scent as "permanent markers" which are super strong. Best to you Doll!

Tulip disperse dye @Walmart for a big package so yeah. It is the best way guaranteed that your wig will come out perfect . What You do is use the dye with hot water I will post info on it too. Hope that helped a little
    Disperse dyes have substantivity for one or more hydrophobic fibres e.g. cellulose acetate, nylon, polyester, acrylic and other synthetic fibres.

      It will stay on unless you wash your wig with wig shampoo. I wouldn’t say it’s 100% waterproof it will fade slowly over time but it’s pretty permanent.

    I would like to do this in reverse. Purchased a long blonde synthetic wig that is too light, kinda grayish. I hate the return/exchange process, so thought about coloring it myself. I don't like the fake looking shine on synthetic wigs but human hair is just too expensive. Would like to use medium brown highlights, maybe even some blonde to take out the ash look. My own hair is blonde and I do my gray roots with medium brown and don't color the rest of it, but my hair is thinning, breaking, and getting so frizzy, I can't deal with it, i.e. the wig. Sometimes I have to do blonde highlights over where I have colored my roots because the brown bleeds out a bit. The wig does have some wave in it and some layering. I was afraid I would ruin the wig because years ago I shampooed some extensions and they went completely limp. Same when I put regular hair color on extensions. It seems nearly impossible to find a wig that is the right color so being able to do this would be fantastic. Your video was very informative and thanks for the list of products too. I will check out the rest of your wig hacks. So glad I found this info! Thanks!

    I have been following the really smart roots,high-lighting and low-lighting you have been doing! Great innovation!
    Now i am pushing!!
    I have short wigs with one exception. It is shoulder length with shorter around the head. Mullet if you wish. The top has great blonde high-lights but the lengthy part is quite brown (light to medium brown). I am not used to the darker brown any more and as i am older i am trying to stay highlights before going more blonde.
    For shorter wigs. How on earth should i use highlight spray like L’Oréal Root Spray to do hight lights or will i just have to spray and brush in spray and brush in to get what i like?
    One wig is just too yellow (Gabor) so that one i could just spray it. But for the more brown short styles - It would be really hard to spray just an inch or two at a time.
    I think you may have to digest all this. I don’t expect you to have an instant solution but i would love if you could think about it and one day maybe do a video on it.
    Thanks for all your courageous and innovative ideas!

    This is a great idea; however, the first time you wash the wig, the color comes out. Is there a permanent spray paint that can be used that will not cause texture alteration? Chalk paint? I have used sharpie pens with good results. Like the one comment, I do not like rooted wigs. In my day, if your roots were dark, it was time to dye them. Black 1, 1B wigs are hard to lighten to a 4. I have used a silver sharpie to add light or "highlights." I am in my 50's so a few gray strands is acceptable. Sometimes it is not enough. I have pale white skin and look pasty sick with black hair. Have you ever used gray or white Rite synthetic dye on a 1 or 1B to lighten it; then dyed it with a blonde for an ash brown effect? I was thinking about trying it. Just was not sure if it has been done already. I put a synthetic 1B in pure bleach overnight. No change at all. I thought there would be some change but nothing at all. Thanks for all you do!!

    • @JesseMSimons
      @JesseMSimons  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah it’s hard to lighten synthetic wigs with anything. I don’t wash my synthetic wigs except when needed so I guess by the time I go to wash it it’s been a while and the highlights have started to fade anyway. I wouldn’t spray any type of paint or anything on it but I will look into a few things and report back. 😊

    i think you should pin this. I did this and ended up in the hospital from inhaling toxic fumes for 1 hour. I should have known better. I am not someone who used root spray before. I also never used hairspray in 30 years, so it just didn't come to me to do this outside. I didn't do this in a well ventilated area, i did it in the bathroom to prevent mess. This needs to be done outside or a work area with air purifier/ ventilation with a mask on. It is a lot of root spray used. I have a lot of pain on my chest and the doctor said my wheeze is caused by chemical inhalation and chest inflamation. The iv steriod and ashma inhaler didn't help so far. He said it should take a few days to start feeling better. I never had issues with breathing before this, I have no lung health conditions, until now.
