Restoring colour to boyfriends jeans and shirt?
Question:About a year ago, i accidently washed my boyfriends beige trousers (lightweight cord jeans) and beige cotton shirt with a pink top of mine. As you can imagine, his clothes went a bit pink! I've washed em a few times, i brought a box of something called "colour catchers" to try and get em back to beige but nothing seems to work. Anyone got any suggestions, i'd be really grateful. Serious ones only please!
Answers:
there is a product call "dylon fabric dye" which you put in your washing machine and re-dye the product in your washing machine. You can buy this in most shops that sell hardware type stuff, it cheap and works well! Hope this helps
In this day and age of the 'throwaway' society you should jolly well throw them away. Why waste your time and effort? You'll only regret it in sometime in the future when he dumps you. "Oh, and I even wasted time and effort trying to restore his clothes to new." In fact, why don't you throw him away as well? Sorted.
Its gonna be hard to get them back to beige and the pink is such a strong colour, why not try to dye them a darker brown? thats funky and will work
You should have used colour run remover, but it may not work now as the colour may be washed into the fabric. Why don't you just dye them charcoal grey or another dark colour instead?
Umm I think you are out of luck... it was a year ago anyway... whenever you dye clothes in the wash by accident you can only get the color out if you a. dont dry them and wash them immediately and b. use warm water.. but sorry it sounds to me like you are out of steam... Colour catchers is for use so you dont dye the clothes... If you feel that bad just go buy him a new outfit.
