Things to note before purchasing:
■ What is indigo dyeing?
Indigo dyeing is a type of dyeing technique in which pigment is extracted from the stems and leaves of the indigo plant and used as the main raw material for textile printing.
Indigo dyeing is a simple, traditional handicraft in which fabric is immersed in a plant-based indigo liquid, exposed to air, and dyed by repeated oxidation.
■ About the fading of indigo dyeing <br data-mce-fragment="1">The fading of indigo dyeing is also very common, but please note: when wearing indigo dyeing, the fading process will be relatively severe during the previous washing process, and the fading of the color in the previous three washings will be particularly severe .
■ Why does indigo dye fade?
All products in the vegetable indigo dyeing series are dyed by hand using traditional methods. The indigo dye used is made from pure natural plant alcohol. The plant dye itself has very low adhesion, and the blue color is formed when it comes into contact with air oxidation. Therefore, true indigo can only be obtained by repeated soaking.
Even so, the core is hard to see through.
Therefore, with prolonged wear and washing, the blue and white contrast will appear in areas that have been rubbed.
The mechanism of indigo dye fading is similar to that of the original cowhide.
If denim doesn't fade, how can I wash it to create a different texture effect? The cat whisker effect from wear won't fade. It's not indigo dyed.
Good indigo dyeing does not just prevent color fading, but also maintains its shape after the color fading has stabilized, does not deform, and has little shrinkage.
