Your finished garments looked the best of all on UA-cam, so I followed your instructions. My hoodie and my wife's shirts are now full of holes. Appreciate it!
thats because she didn't actually use the same shirts. When you watch it she shows an old tshirt from her husband and then in the main photo she uses professionally made shirts...sorry that happened to your stuff

I did this step by step to 4 items (that I wasn’t attached to, thank Goodness). I did not dilute the bleach because she never says to, I didn’t wet the item before bleaching because, again, she never says to. I followed the video step by step and waited 4-5 hours (over my better judgement, because she says to), 1 of my blue shirts turned completely white and was shredding like a paper towel as I took the rubber bands off. The other 3 pieces didn’t look tie-dyed at all, this method just insanely thinned out the material and ruined all 4 pieces. DILUTE your bleach- DON’T “saturate” the clothes.
I did the same but I checked it within 3 mins and it was a perfect bleach tie dye! I did one one before this one and I left it for 4 hrs and it turn grey.. so I recommend to leave it for minutes instead of hours lol hope this helps!
Good video. Your visuals make clear what you're doing. I have wondered about doing the bleaching twice, but cut back the time drastically for the first rinse. And or start w/ a diluted bleaching solution. Then do a 2nd bleaching focusing on areas you want to enhance. And also with multiple bleachings, vary the strength ratio of the bleach. I assumed you are using full bleach in your method. I really like the crunch gathering method you use. You finished pieces look great. It is the modern update to tie-dyeing. Being in the geezer realm, the traditional spirals and such make me think that a VW Bus would be mandatory to go along w/ the old Hippie style. Looking forward to more videos from you.
Thank you for not only using black fabrics! I've been wanting to bleach one of my t-shirts (it's a pale orange) but couldn't find any videos that use colourful shirts instead of only black ones
I just tried this! I did a black shirt and only left it for about an hour but the results are great! Super easy to follow your instructions even tho i suck at crafts :)
Those are the prettiest patterns I've seen in a while. Do you use straight bleach or 50% bleach 50% water? Most videos I've seen use 50% water and maybe that's why it looks different?
You “Bleach Tie Dye” came out really adorable! I’m a little confused though... I was is using the “Clorox Bleach Tie Dying Method” back in the early 1970s. After only a couple of washing every one of the 100% cotton T-Shirts I dyed was falling apart. My Mom then explained that using straight up Bleach and letting it sit for 2 - 3 hours... Was weakening the fibers causing it to disintegrate. Was the Bleach of yesteryear, stronger? My Levi’s were fine and actually much softer.
You need to dilute it!! Using pure bleach and saturating the clothes will cause them to fall apart. 1 part water to 1 part bleach should be fine. So like 2 cups of water and 2 cups of bleach is what I heard works best. She definitely should have mentioned this in the video, as it seems many are having the same problem. Sorry to hear about your shirts!
I tried this with an 100% cotton black shirt and your idea of using a squirt bottle for the bleach. The color didn’t really change from 15 minutes to 5.5 hours, it remained a light brick reddish color. I took off the rubber bands after nearly 6 hours only to find that there were any bleach marks! I don’t know if I scrunched/rubber banded my fabric too tightly or what. Since it’s a cheap test shirt (fortunately), I just re-scrunched, literally SOAKED in bleach & threw it into a ziplock bag to sit overnight. I hope there’s a difference in the morning 🤞. Worse comes to worst I’m out $3
G. Antonette the outcome was significantly better (bleach to black ratio). I’d definitely blame the first flop on not saturating the shirt in enough bleach
The black tee shirt she bleached had a pocket and an everlane label, but the black tee shirt she revealed where she sewed the sleeves and cropped it had a groceries apparel label. The shirt she revealed isn't the same shirt she showed herself bleaching??
So, what ratio of bleach/water did you use here? Because using 1:1 will typically start shredding clothing after an hour or so... I like the look and it looks diluted, and clearly must be since you left it on for hours without the t-shirt disintegrating
You're video is great... just missing details. You never advise on what percentage of cotton was in your shirts, you're setting people up to ruin their clothing without full details of the process. Not to mention all of the health risks of inhaling bleach in enclosed environments. As someone who sells bleached clothing professionally please provide accurate information.
Did you wash the shirts separately or is it okay to put more than one piece of bleached clothing in the washing machine ? Amazing video by the way, I will definitely give it a try!
Ivanna Maria it was browny- black. I did two black tshirts and one turned out more red than brown/tan after it so maybe test a little bit of bleach on the corner of your black shirt to see how it will turn before doing it completely
Great idea in terms of the crumpling method. However, mix your bleach with water (1:1 ratio). And don't leave it for as long as the video says. I would say anywhere under 30 minutes is enough, especially if the fabric you're using is not very thick.
You don't dilute the bleach at all? Won't that make the fabric super rippable? When I was a teenager, I poured straight bleach on a pair of white jeans to make them really bright, and they were ruined. They ripped into shreds. I'm worried the same thing will happen to shirts.
i tried it out on my shirt and left the bleach on for about an hour or so. please tell me why my shirt looks nowhere near as pretty as hers :( my shirt looks orangey :( like how :(
Yes, any rubber bands work. They will snap with the bleach though, beware. And dilute the bleach with water! I used straight bleach on a shirt for 15 minutes (following this tutorial) and the shirt tore like tissue paper. Also, use a hydrogen peroxide mixture with water to neutralize the bleach after you've rinsed it out with cold water, or else it will continue to degrade the fabric.

It is definitely true. Not at first but over time it rots away. I did this with some shirts a couple years ago and within a couple months all the white parts were completely see through. Good luck!

@@jllianelise the only thing about using undiluted bleach is that after a few washes the clothing can go into holes as the bleach rots the fabric. Best to do 50/50 bleach water
Yeah, hi, just wondering why the first t-shirt is actually two different shirts? And if its two different shirts you dyed yourself then how come there is no bleach on the black tag on the second one? Not cool, my dude.
Anyone else tried to do this yet???
SUTTON GROVE I did with a tshirt and it turned out awesome! I want to do a sweatshirt next! What brand/material is the sweatshirt that you used?
I'm trying it, now i just need to wait for 2 hours
I am doing it right now!
I did but didnt need to wait that long only 10 min and it gave a nice brick red color.
I just tried it and now gotta wait 4hrs before the big reveal !

I love how the brand changed from Everlane to Groceries Apparel after letting it dry for 2-5 hours.
Yeah wtf I just noticed that too...... Questionable
So weird I just saw that too they’re two completely different shirts why would she do that 🙄
I noticed! I'm surprised more people didn't notice it. Her whole video is a sham LOL
Woooooooow just saw that. Why would she do that to ppl?!!

How much would you recommend to dilute it
@@kalybholder3043 All the other tutorials I have seen say to use 1 part water to 1 part bleach.
I did the same thing, shirt ruined after 15 minutes
Same!!! :( I've lost 2 good shirts now! Also DO NOT leave it 2-5 hours. 8-10 minutes is fine!!
Same. My sweatshirt is white now. Should have watched another video.
this is a nice way to kill some time in home isolation, perfect!
Thank you! I think so too.
The pink one looks sooooo pretty
The first shirt isn’t the same one you dyed? They have different tags
Good catch!
Lol true. Sketchyy
Thank You for the awesome idea tried it and I giving it as a gift for my cousin and I will be giving it to her after some days
love the look of them. and you could easy make some face masks out of the left over fabric from cutting. cool tutorial, thank you!
One of the best results I’ve seen
I did the same but I checked it within 3 mins and it was a perfect bleach tie dye! I did one one before this one and I left it for 4 hrs and it turn grey.. so I recommend to leave it for minutes instead of hours lol hope this helps!
you explained that really well, you are quite talented for this
That's very kind, thank you Gina.

They turned out so cute! You're so cute too!
Hey guys, I used half bleach and half water mixture and left my shirt for 15 minutes and it came out perfect😊
that hoodie came out amazing!!
Did you wet your tops first before bleach? These turned out great!
Thank you for not only using black fabrics! I've been wanting to bleach one of my t-shirts (it's a pale orange) but couldn't find any videos that use colourful shirts instead of only black ones
Beautiful!!!! Bellissima idea! Grazie, proverò anch'o a realizzare magliette e felpe con la candeggina!!
Grazie dall' Italia!
I will have to do this with the kids!
Christian and Tiffany great idea!

So nice!!! I ruined one of my fav hoodies, I will try out bleaching it too
Lovely creative ideas 💕👍

Don't use straight bleach. Shredded my shirt after 15 minutes with straight bleach
She bought a pre-made shirt.

This is really helpful. Nice work and the way you explain it is clear and understandable. Thank you so much for sharing your skill. 🙂🖖🖐
These ones look soo good!!!
These look so good!!
All videos I’ve seen have used a 1:1 ratio of water & bleach in a bottle, did you just use straight bleach?
Don't use straight bleach, I shredded my shirt after 15 minutes by using straight bleach
That second one 😍😍😍😍
Awesome tutorial! I am excited to reverse tie dye a couple old sweatshirts. I am excited to see what colors they become.
Sriracha bottle is a great idea!
Brooke Here Now haha it’s all I had on hand , nice t reuse/recycle
Great video! I like how it’s very simple to follow! 😀😀

Cool, werde ich ausprobieren.
Amazing! Im trying this
You make it seem really easy, hope I manage to do it as well lol
Comment back if you do give it a try!
You ought to use the cut off part to make other things, like scarves, headbands, scrunchies, belts, bags, book covers, mittens, etc.
Aren't you suppose to thin bleach 1/2 bleach 1/2 water?
Did you wash the shirts separately or is it okay to put more than one piece of bleached clothing in the washing machine ?
Amazing video by the way, I will definitely give it a try!
Thitinan Hanthong ya I ended up washing them together
So cool!! 💖
Greatttt
I’m definitely gonna try this one
do u need to dilute the bleach with water first?
She didn’t mention it so I could only assume not- I’ll let ya know how it goes. 🤷♀️
Dilute the bleach by half with water, and make sure to mix it together before applying.
Yes, dilute it!! I used straight bleach on a shirt for 15 minutes (following this tutorial) and the shirt tore like tissue paper
They look amazing! I am going to try this, this weekend and upload the video on Sunday! Just subscribed! 😊
They turned out amazing! what color is the first shirt, black or brown?
Ivanna Maria it was browny- black. I did two black tshirts and one turned out more red than brown/tan after it so maybe test a little bit of bleach on the corner of your black shirt to see how it will turn before doing it completely

So pretty

Do you dilute your bleach or just bleach??
omg that's good. I like it ❤😍
its not that hard as one might expect, cool! greetings from germany btw!! :-)
It's not bad and a great way to spend an afternoon stuck at home! My Oma and Opa are from Germany, so I've got some roots there!
Thanks for the tips now it help alot🦾🦾
Hi 🙋 Can you please tell me what editor do you use to edit your videos and to add text. I really liked the presentation 🤗👍
i tried it out on my shirt and left the bleach on for about an hour or so. please tell me why my shirt looks nowhere near as pretty as hers :( my shirt looks orangey :( like how :(
Do you need to wet the T-shirt first ?
⚠️WARNING⚠️ DO NOT FOLLOW THIS TUTORIAL
$5 shirt transformed into a $25 shirt. Good job.
hi just want to ask, is it okay to use colored rubber bands / ties?
Yes, any rubber bands work. They will snap with the bleach though, beware. And dilute the bleach with water! I used straight bleach on a shirt for 15 minutes (following this tutorial) and the shirt tore like tissue paper. Also, use a hydrogen peroxide mixture with water to neutralize the bleach after you've rinsed it out with cold water, or else it will continue to degrade the fabric.
Just did mine, I’m waiting :) will tell you how it turned out!
Salty Stark how did it turn out
Did u mix the bleach with water?

2-5 hrs? I heard over 10 mins can tear holes
Not true lol I just did it for 4 hours and it looks great

Genial muy lindos
Do you think you could use hair ties instead of elastic bands ?
kaylee ya , I actually had to as well because I ran out of elastic bands !
Wooww.. cantik sekali☺
Did you wet these before you started?!
Was this pure bleach or was it diluted with water?
Grecia Moran it was pure bleach. You can dampen the shirts a little before hand but the stronger the bleach the better

should I wear my facemask while doing that bleach part? not that good inhaling these fumes I guess
Ya you could - if you do it outside it won't be that bad though and it's only a couple minutes
Love!! Thanks for keeping the video straight to the point❤
Thanks for showing on a long sleeve!
lo ameee

It so evething,💜
terima kasih!!
i just did 4 shirts lmao really high risk btw can i leave it over night?
Absolutely not. Don't leave for more than 30 minutes, and not more than 20 minutes for a regular cotton shirt
can anyone tell me the brand of that bleach i need to try this
It's work or not... Tell me anyone... That it's is good or wrong
bleach name plzzz??
that bleach is bad for your health, no? but I'll definitely give it a try! Thank you so much!
Smile mit Weile if you wear gloves and don’t touch it you’re fine !
also do it out side or in a room with good ventilation to not breath it in!
Ah yes, my grandma has already put all the bleach in empty saracha bottles. I am almost there without lifting a finger.
For the shirt one,if you closely check the mark its different before and after,which proves that this is fake.
alguien que hable español?? creo que soy la unica :-)
Umm.. straight bleach for 4 hours will leave most shirts will HOLES.
Lindo! Porém o meu fico feio kkk
I’m sorry but if you’re trying to make a crop top isn’t it that effort is less when you cut it first?
True!
Is that bleach has a color? I'm so confused HAHHA
You need to dilute the bleach and you REALLY need to be careful about combining bleach and metal.
lesbians: alright the straights have snatched cuffed jeans from us so let’s cuff our shirts
the straights:
lesbians: well f^ck
Does the color stay / does it wash off everytime we wash them?
You’re literally bleaching the color out, it can’t go back to what it was anyway
