Yes whips, I press report. He destroyed singing, of course, of course, Cheers. Oh, my god, person is singing no jamming. Today, I'm gon na vote for two different methods for naturally dyeing wigs and coitus touched my own hair, even though we're not dying with Mary guy wins. So this is the win. I'M gon na be dying right there. Alright, this just ain't gon na work, foldable gun. So you need really. I'M sorry, I'm sorry, but you can't be here. I know I'm sorry, don't sing from the living room you're! So silly! Oh! So this is the way we're gon na be dying. Today I got this from Lovejoy net. Was there an online cosplay supply company? This is their long golden cosplay wig. I know the names are really long because they're like character inspired, I tone I'll put a link in the description below. So this is the one. I got it's very long. It'S actually 38 inches long and I'm going to be using this for my honey line, cosplay. So it really has some natural differences in the wig. I don't know if you can tell, but it has some natural highlights and lowlights in it to kind of give it a more realistic look so to try to get that natural like dirty blonde color. Instead of this like lemon bright blonde color we're going to be dyeing it with tea and with coffee. So the first thing you're going to want to do is find a pot and fill it with enough water to fully submerge your lid and start boiling, the water. So, for the first month that I am using tea, this is going to give you a rather light and natural tone to it and I'm going to use one tea bag for every two inches of hair, so measure a wig and get out as much tea bags. As necessary and once your water is boiling, go ahead and add the tea bags, and I actually let them soak for about five minutes with the water consistently boiling go ahead and remove the teabags before you add the wig. That way, you don't have all this mess. Tangled up in your wig turn the heat down to a simmer and add the wig I let mine set for about 15 minutes how long your Inlet set is going to be how dark you're going to want the color to be the longer you set with the More consistent heat, the darker it's going to be, if you turn the heat off and only let it set for four or five minutes, it's going to be a lot lighter and a lot less noticeable. So it's up to you just keep, checking it and rechecking it and let it sit longer if you feel like the color needs to be darker once you're happy go ahead and remove the wig, but remember once the fibers are dry, the color is going to be Lighter than it is when it's wet now on to option two coffee, coffee, coffee table, coffee, okay, so I just choose to use a dark roast coffee for this because I figured the color would be darker. I don't actually know if that is true, but why not? I am also using a lot of it because I do want this wig to be of a natural darker blonde tone, rather than really pale blonde. I'M actually going to be grinding up about two cups worth of coffee. Boil your water once more and add your coffee grounds. I let the coffee boil in a separate pot for about five minutes and then strained it into another, bigger pot. That'S actually going to hold my wig once more go ahead and submerge your wig into the pot and let it sit as long as you like until you get the color that you're after indeed, this makes the beast miss. Oh dang. It make sure you rinse the wick very thoroughly after every time you diet, whether with tea or with coffee. I made this mistake after the coffee won and didn't really scrub it and I ended up having a little bit of fine ground stuck within the fibers. So really really try to rinse it out with cold water until it runs really clean and you don't find any coffee grounds or tea particles floating around in your wig, and I like to hang my wig outside to dry in the sunlight. But you can also use a hair dryer to speed up the process, so this is what it looks like dried out of the pot you can see. It is very crinkly and stuff from the heat it did set it. So I'm gon na go over the whole thing with a straightener, then show you the final look. This is the finished look of fluid after I've T dyed it and coffee dyed it. So you can see it's a very natural type of guide. It still looks like a blond color, but it's not as Ashley it's kind of more dirty. The top of the wig is rather thin. You can see the wefts kind of showing through, but I'm doing, honey-lemon with her outfit, so she's gon na have the helmet on. So it doesn't really matter the top of my wig. I just needed it to be the right length and I do like that. It is dual tone with the highlights and under lights to it and they still come through even after dyeing with tea or with coffee. I can still see the highlights and the lowlights that work came in the natural wig fibers. Overall, the wig is going to work really really well. For me, it's the right length. It'S pretty long. I might need to add some darker layers and, like the bottom half of it, because I feel like the underneath of honey-lemon hair is a lot darker than on the top, which is very natural for hair. But I can end up dying my way just a little bit darker for my personal cosplay, but as for the coffee and the tea dyeing, this is going to be about your outcome.
