Please let us know how it goes and feel free to drop us a line if you have any questions about the process! What about lightening the tights? I'm a very pale girl and skin coloured tights always look too tanned and I was wondering what the best way to lighten them would be x. It's a huge hassle and hard to do evenly.
Dyeing light colours is also difficult you get less time to evenly swish something in a dye bath , but it will result in a better outcome than removing colour. Hazel -- don't. Trying to remove dye, especially from commercially dyed products, is a cranky business and often involves chemicals that like to eat away at more delicate materials. I got a pair of patterned stockings, the one with the white cat and the skin colour of the stockings kinda washes me out, makes me look kinda ashy lol and I want to say I'm a mocha color.
I was planning on painting on the dye so the stockings won't wash me out. I am so happy I came across this post. I recently purchased this item here. It looks weird on my, because I am brown skin in color.
However they have sew on sequins. Would this item dye well?

The verdict These are the pair I Kool-Aided. The flash kinda washed them out mad photog skillz, I have , but they are a wonderful tinted green. And these are the pair that I did with food coloring. They started off yellow, which gave them a lovely lime-y bright green undertone.
All in all I loved how it turned out! Super easy, fast, and cheap! I will definitely be doing this again! This is a great option for dancers, cosplayers, and people in general who need tights in specific colors in a pinch! Thank you all! Posted by Jordan!
