Just to say i also bought a charity shop £5 dark denim skirt and your instructions gave me the confidence to lighten it. Looks great. Thank you 😍

[@hennessytheblackrose6519]

Thank you

[@senecaoak7173]

if say the jean is stretchy will bleach affect its elasticity?

[@senecaoak7173]

floor bleach works too?

[@senecaoak7173]

does it matter which bleach type?

[@rollyro71]

Great job!!!
I want to try bleaching a dark denim Jacket of mine. It's 2% elastane (spandex)
Will this method work??

[@herlifethreads7213]

Thank you for watching! You probably completed your project by now (sorry for the delay!) but I would think this method would work as long as the material is mostly cotton! I hope this helps someone!

[@senecaoak7173]

how does it goes, did it work for elastane?

[@rollyro71]

@@herlifethreads7213 Black Denim Levis commuter jckt %2 elastane took multiple hours soaking and turned to light Flamingo pink 😆.
I wanted it light as possible to dye it brown.
Then 2 bottles of RIT Dark Brown dye and turned from pink denim to a head turning orange brown tan. It gets mistaken for leather by some people. Definitely worth the time

[@naveedbasha236]

good idea baby

[@rheynsonza7380]

What is the measurements of bleach?

[@herlifethreads7213]

Sorry for the delayed response! I wish I measured it exactly but it was probably around 2-3 cups of bleach to a shallow tub of water. I recommend pouring a little bleach in your water at first and watch your garment, adding a little more bleach over time until it lightens to the shade you want. I hope this helps!

You have to turn it😉

[@preppy9663]

Is the water required? I’m trying it without water

[@ightwack2220]

It's probably best to dilute it so you don't get any spots

[@herlifethreads7213]

Thanks for watching! Sorry for the delay. I would recommend using water in order to control the intensity of the bleach.
