- I really wanted to find out if i could dye the Afri-Naptural Kanekalon synthetic hair. What better way than to test it out myself! Watch and see how i attempted this and whether it worked!
Kanekalon Hair - Colour 27 (£6.99)
Dylon - Woodland Brown (£3.39) Hand Dye Instructions:
1. Weigh dry fabric. Wash thoroughly. Leave damp
2. Using rubber gloves, dissolve dye in 500ml warm water
3. Fill bowl/stainless steel sink with approx 6 litres warm water (40°C)
4. Stir in 250g (5tbsp) salt. Add dye & stir well
5. Submerge fabric in water
6. Stir for 15mins, then stir regularly for 45mins
7. Rinse fabric in cold water. Wash in warm water and dry away from direct heat & sunlight
HELPFUL HINTS
• You will need 250g salt
• 1 pack dyes up to 250g fabric (e.g. shirt) to full shade or larger amounts to lighter shade
• Suitable fabrics: Cotton, linen and viscose. Wool, Silk, Polyester/cotton and polyester/viscose mixes will dye to lighter shade
• Not suitable: Pure polyester, acrylic, nylon & fabric with special finishes
• Wash separately for first few washes to remove any excess dye
• Please note: Colour mixing rules apply (e.g. blue on red gives purple)
MICROWAVE DYING
• Hand dye can be used in the microwave to create special effects.
• For cotton, linen, silk and polyester/cotton mixes only.
• Micro-Dyeing is not suitable for wool, viscose or synthetic fabrics.
• DO NOT USE ON VISCOSE, AS FABRIC CAN GIVE OFF HARMFUL FUMES.
• Remove all metal on fabric (zips, studs, etc).
How To Use
1. Wash the fabric and leave damp.
2. Select your special effect and prepare the fabric by scrunching, knotting, twisting or folding - tie all fabrics tightly.
3. Wearing rubber gloves, empty the dye carefully into the bowl and gradually add 250 ml / ½ pint of hot water. Stir thoroughly to ensure dye is dissolved. Add further 250 ml / ½ pint of water.
4. Place the fabric in the bowl and work into the dye.
5. Put the bowl into a plastic bag or plastic wrap and place in the microwave. Set on ‘high’ for 4 minutes.
6. After 4 minutes remove the bowl from the oven - remember to protect your hands from the heat.
7. Tip away the dye solution and rinse the fabric in cold water. To protect the pattern do not undo any knots, twists, folds etc., until the water runs clear.
8. Rinse, wash and dry as for the Hand method.

great video
I love the idea that you tried
what hairstyle are you rocking
Thank you, so nice :) Right now i have tribal braids on with my natural hair, doing other people's hair i have barely had time to do my own, but this Bank holiday weekend is for me so i will be doing something with the kanekalon hair definitely!
You need acrylic ink & alcohol to dye synthetic hair.
I know right, definitely going to try it again with the right things this time lol thank you for watching, have you tired it before?
oh my goodness, I have just checked out your channel! I love your style, you definitely have me on the team :)
Yes, I have, but I did it on hair that was slightly darker than the one you've used. I'm going to do it again but I'm going to use light blonde or white kanekalon if I can get it as the colour will probably be a lot more vibrant.
oh ok let me know how it goes, am going to try it with a grey/white hair and hope the colour sticks
I have 4 lines of vibrant blue and purple braid so i want to know if i use purple shampoo all over will it change the colour of my braids or no?

I have 4 lines of vibrant blue and purple braid so i want to know if i use purple shampoo all over my hair will their colour change or no?
I don't think so, it's really hard to change synthetic hair colours.
Use ink. It will stain it.good experiment to watch thanks for sharing
Oh wow ink i never even thought of that, thank you, i'll give it a go. Have you tried it yourself?
Abivision yes it works but only on blonde braiding hair
wow ok, i think i'll try it, cause i want this hair in brown, but they don't sell it in brown, so i have been trying to make my own colour for a while, i don't know why my mind never went to ink! I love this sharing i am learning so much! I really appreciate you telling me Tanzy, thank you!
Abivision your welcome could u subscribe to my channel and check it out i will subscribe to yours.i hope we can stay intouch.youtubefamily
Girl i am all subscribed 🙂 definitely stay in touch i think i can learn a thing or two from you! Thanks hun
.ukjm getting ready to dye using RIT fabric dye. try that
Thank you, I'll try it, does it work well?
It didn't work bc your dye water was not hot. It has to be BOILING hot.
oh I see ok's I'll try it with boiling water! I hope t works cause I have tried so many different things that people have suggested.
It doesn't work at all tried it several times I let it soak 24 hours.. it doesn't work.itll just wash right out ..the best way is to use permanent markers or black liguid ink mixed with lotion..let it sit 24 hours . And .rinse..worked for me👍
oh my goodness you are a genius! I have tried so many things I will try what you recommend and see if it works! thank you :)
Hi! I have black kanekalon dreads, can I dye black kanekalon with another color this way?
Hi Leonardo, I don't think you can dye black but I know you can spray it another colour with the new "dark and lovely go intense colour spray" try it an let me know your thoughts :)
wow thanks Ana :)
You're so cuteeeee
Thank you :) lol hope you enjoyed the video!
I tried something like this and it didn’t work at all I was so sad!! The hair was platinum and it wouldn’t take color
Idk how other ppl get it to work
I have found a new method that actually works but it takes time, it's with ink, I just need to edit the video and post, lol procrastination sucks!
