There's a good one on coscom....I can't find the link now, but basically you use isopropyl alcohol and acrylic ink, spray it on and comb it through.

Edit: This isn't the one I was thinking of, but there's this one http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=154280 which should be pretty helpful :)

I've had generally pretty good success with the FW ink dye method~ C:

...Maybe I'll do a photo tutorial when I do the next dye batch... Wig dying tutorial plz? 974377

Key thing you need to keep in mind is the kind of fiber the wig you buy is, and the base colour of the wig. Eleora fiber does not dye well at all (we learnt this the hard way for Edge orz), but Kankelon dyes beautifully. And remember - dye tints the existing colour rather than making a clean slate - so a dirty blonde wig will make a dirty colour, for example. Therefore it's best to get a wig similar to the colour you want and tint it (it must be a lighter colour! You can only dye wigs darker, not lighter!) or a white one. :3

Any questions?
