    The spraying method is also as easy as the dipping method. All you have to care about is to use the right amount of ink and follow the mentioned steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Things to Remember While Dying The Wig<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    1. Don’t ever put the whole wig into the dye. Instead, color it bit by bit. You can even use the spray to color the lace wigs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Always prefer hot water while mixing the dye. It will work more effectively than cold water. We would suggest changing the water after dying every streak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. It is comparatively difficult to dye dark color wigs such as black wig or brown wig. Therefore it is recommended that you dye only light color wigs or blonde wigs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. As the dye is going to drip everywhere, make sure you cover the workspace beforehand using plastic paper or cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    5. No matter how well you dip or spray the wig, the roots are always left uncolored. However, you can always use sharpies to color the root.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Many people use markers or ink to dye lace wigs. But these things often come off in a short time and are also not suitable for wigs. Besides, it may also make stains on clothes. Therefore it is recommended that you avoid using these products to color wigs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
