bleaching indigo colored jeans



Name: Miyyu
Message: Hi, Please help, I have a pair of indigo colored jeans with a whiskered effect that i would love to lighten, but am unsure how to go about it. They are a very dark indigo color, i would like them to be vintage in color :) Thanks

Some people use chlorine bleach for this. Other prefer a Rit brand product called "Fast Fade for Jeans", which is less damaging to the fiber. You will probably need several packets of the latter; be sure to follow the instructions closely.
