Since they are wefts, it took me for-ev-er!!!!!! (6-7 hours)
Omg, I was doing microring strads before and it only took me about 4 hours...
Anyways..
This is about... 10oz or 300g, of 22" Wawa in #2, #4 and #613+Rit (fuchsia blended with Scarlet) the Rit color is actually very pink, like hot pink, not fuschia or scarlet.
I used Mircorings on the sides then Liquid Gold on the back ( I only put the LG on one side of the weft then stuck it to my hair then used a hot blow dryer to "set" it) Then microringed the sides of the back LG wefts to prevent "peeling" of the wefts from my head.
I still need tocut the end of the Rit color...but as you can see its very pink.

how about bleeding? does the color bleed or is it colorfast?
 
BTW...thank you, Im so glad you took the plunge and tried dying the wawa with rit...Ive wanted to try it for so long now, but just havent had TIME for any new experiments these days...time is NOT my friend lately!
 
I would like to try the tan or light brown to see if the colors come up with anything close to an actual  human hair color. Since the wawa is so limited in the light brown/dark blonce range.

It doesn't bleed, but I have a white brush and it's slowly getting pinkish...
I would LOVE more colors in Wawa.
BTW, kudos to all of you who can do wefts.
I cannot stand these.
They are driving me crazy, I installed partcially with Microrings and they slip right out.
...
Anyways, I bought a color ring of D-Lux hair, and just placed an order for some D-Lux hair in stick tip, which I'll be installing asap.
I'll post pictures after install.
I will say wefts seem MUCH less visable and feel WAY WAY WAY better than rings.
Maybe once I get the glue down I can do wefts again.

It tangles on me so frickin bad, I even took some wefts out.
I had it in a week.
Never again.

Poose, you put in a LOT of hair. Maybe that had something to do with the tangling? What happened when you tried to detangle? Did you tuck it away at night when you slept?
