[@americansuperOG]

This is the most legendary guy to ever make a video on youtube

[@colorfulsteve]

itll still look decent but the black is what really makes the colors pop

[@TadRaunch]

That looks sensational!

[@lillithseraphine3649]

that tiger hat was beautiful

[@chrissym1249]

Love that design!!

[@mendyWZRD]

That's an awesome design

[@HannahG533]

Does it matter which side you put the black on? Thanks for these great videos!

[@NinjaBunnyPro]

you mentioned speeding up the dye setting in by putting the shirt into a plastic bag & into the microwave. which tie dye kits have the most harmful stuff in it if you try speeding it up via microwave? the tie dye kit i have is "tulip".

[@ytihnic72]

This is simply stunning what brand t-shirts do you use and tie dye and where do you get it? Also are you a furry?

[@Ozpanzini]

This is so creative damn!

[@paulajzt]

nice!

[@BrayantB123]

Thats so dope do you know how to make it look more galaxy type ish?

[@sharkley100]

That's awesome man!

[@leslie4778]

if you don't add in the black at the end, will it still look decent?

[@joshjones3497]

Is there a reason why you didn't do black on the other side??

[@gemmendoza9512]

68 hours or 6-8 HOURS???

[@urwashedlul]

6-8

[@bayedbob204]

so I don't put black on the front of the shirt

[@jamiearquiro4627]

is there any alternative for soda ash ?! :) or I can dye without it ? thanks :) thumbs up for your dyes :)

[@allancederberg1307]

you can dye without it but it will not be as vibrant and it's gonna wear out after a while! I dye without it and it gets kinda blurry... :-D

[@khione8044]

@jamie arquiro I'm just curious, but what is wrong with soda ash that you gotta find an alternative to it? Soda Ash is just Washing Soda (Sodium Carbonate) and is pretty cheap.

[@taylorgleason610]

Nice hat brah

[@eFenuska]

what colour do you use? I mean what brand...?

[@CessTess]

was your tshirt wet before you put the dye on?

[@BeamtownHoops]

Hey can u show us how to tie dye socks?!

[@jonhaire1968]

is the shirt soaking in anything in particular beforehand and does it NEED to be wet before adding dye ?

[@shainahinton2681]

soaking it in a soda ash solution helps the dye bond to the fabric so it lasts longer. damp fabric is much easier to manage aswell

[@erinbug7]

Do you put it in the dryer afterwords?

[@isaaconeal8086]

can anyone tell me how to tie dye just the hood on a hoodie?

[@tiedyetimc2537]

Yes. Since the hoodie will be thicker than a t-shirt you will need twine instead of just string or rubber bands. Tie off the hood really well with the twine, make it as tight as the twine will stand then just treat the hood like any other tie dye project. You can put the coat part in a plastic bag to protect it from drips if you want and a little bit will seep past the tie but not much and it will sort of give a ragged edge to the color like tie dye should.

[@priscillamorales597]

Please tell me were you get the dye.!!!!

[@jelanianderson4954]

"Push the button. "

[@colorfulsteve]

haha i have 10 of them. i have an obsession lol

[@stupidsk8erchick]

nice hat

[@epiphanyamorclothing]

is it possible to do it to a crew kneck

[@colorfulsteve]

for black material it will not work very well. what you could do is reverse tie dye which would be instead of using dye to dye the shirt you would use bleach. has some cool effects

[@chyndb]

What kind of dye are you using

[@colorfulsteve]

excess dye will always run off the shirt when you rinse it but it shouldnt fade. i know rit dyes tends to fade alot. i wouldnt reccommend rit dye.

[@priscillamorales597]

Can you get the dye at craft stores?

[@itismebee]

Priscilla Morales yes!

[@OliviaLovesYuuu]

Which side does the black go on ?

[@sydneylucas4687]

Amazing 3 Ima do this now i love love love tie dying c:

[@colorfulsteve]

yeah you should use an old microwave you dont use for food anymore

[@Fr3nchbuilder]

where did you get the bottles?

[@metanoia.CHANGE_OF_MIND]

69 years!? No, 6-9 years. Madagascar 2 reference.

[@christinan.5742]

I wonder how many tshirts he buys a month...

[@jksprecast2957]

I just got a beautiful white robe and want to do a galaxy style but real nervous on where to start. I have an idea as the bottom would be black and gets lighter towards the top like dawn's raising. I trust your great style and techniques to help me with this dilemma. Great videos from you. Demo this idea on your next video would be GREAT.

[@colorfulsteve]

@qonejalove after 6-8 hours you have to rinse it with water. i usually put it in the washing machine but you can rinse it with a hose or in the sink

[@Sun-soilproductions]

How do you wash your tie dyed shirts? cold water? do you hand wash em or pop em in the washing machine? do you only wash it with other tie dyed shirts? will the residue from the dyes remain in the washer and stain the regular white clothes? and do u use regular laundry detergent or must i buy something else?

[@colorfulsteve]

it doesnt have to be damp you just have to make sure the shirt was soaked in soda ash water before hand

[@meriammeriouma4011]

I love this .this is cooooooooooooooooool

[@656tutucat]

Love your tie dyeing, but your tablecloth is very distracting. Maybe a plain one would be better. Thanks.

[@LaurenOrion]

i dont live int he us and i cant buy that dye i cant ectually buy it anywhere here unless its like 35 euros any ideas ?

[@abigailkaras5812]

you make me laugh steve

[@CC-Equestrian]

thankyou for a great tutorial :-) where can you buy the bottles to dye with? ( UK )

[@joziewozie3444]

heyyy does anyone know if it's possible to do this on a sweatshirt ? sometimes sweatshirts are more thick than a regular white t shirt .

[@spencergibb5138]

A few things: 1) Make sure you soak your shirts in soda ash (dye fixer) solution before dying them. 2) Make sure that while they're setting (after you dye them), they don't dry out (plastic bags help) and the room they are in is AT LEAST 70 degrees Fahrenheit (this is necessary for the dye to react with the fabric and permanently color it) 3) Apply some sort of heat after they've set (either wash them in hot water or let them dry, then iron them, then wash them). Try it out!

[@divyamalhotra7726]

Nice!!

[@colorfulsteve]

the colors would alternate. could add a cool effect

[@captainsbaseball9]

To help hold color, hand wash your tye dye material in soda ash for 30 minutes before you dye it and then once the dye is set in after 8-12 hours, you can wash it with other tye dye clothes in cold water, but what we do is take a shower in our shirts and let the dye set in that way, but if you're not looking to dye yourself in the process I wouldn't suggest it.

[@colorfulsteve]

its a spirithood you can get one at spirithoodscom

[@spencergibb5138]

One more thing, try mixing your dyes at a higher concentration than the package recommends; they want to be able to advertise "This kit dyes 30 shirts!" so they tell you to use very little, but the colors look way better (and last longer) when the dyes are more concentrated.

[@3greatgreyhounds3]

Awesome job really like this one, gonna try to make one like it.

[@fluffybunnylove1]

do you fill the bottles with dye that you mix with water (eg dylon) or do you buy it filled? can i fill them myself with dylon dye? thanks :)

[@marblenailexpert100]

@harrypotterwatch n cause it wil ruin the affect just wash it in salt water untill the watr runs clear and then let it dry for another 24 hours

[@kerrij.6565]

That's really awesome thank you for teaching me something new 😊

[@bobbypowell9080]

i have a Q everytime i do a shirt i let it set for 1 day and every time i wash it the color comes out....how do i stop that from happening

[@elenasanchez2574]

Wow!! Gorgeous! You work so calmly...Thank you!!!

[@gonorrleah]

you wouldnt be able to get the rainbow bit in the middle and it wouldnt look very marbley and contrasty in the scrunch part

[@ALS1994yippee]

Normally before you tie dye it is best if it's damp... not sure if his was or not? I'd do it damp to be honest.

[@colorfulsteve]

yes it is!

[@rowanbun3162]

Niiiice, I'm going to use this for a dress. You look cute in your hood too lol

[@Noisycatstephanie]

Thanks for all these awesome videos! I appreciate it!

[@kutiegsweet]

How much time does the microwave cit off from the drying time?

[@krazyass420]
