Message: I am a newbie dyer...can I dye royal blue scrubs to a grey or burgundy...change in dress code...NEED HELP PLEASE...THANX

It depends on what fiber they are made of. If they are 100% cotton, they will take easy-to-use fiber reactive dye brightly, which should allow you to overdye royal blue to burgundy or dark charcoal gray. However, if they are 50% polyester, they will take only pale shades of dye, which will not cover up your royal blue at all well.

If you can't find them locally, you can buy 100% cotton dyeable white scrubs from Dharma Trading Company, and dye them in the washing machine or a five-gallon bucket with Procion MX dyes.
