My lovely sexy jeans have been washed so often they're nearly white - but I don't want to throw them out. How do I stop them looking like they belong to an ageing rock star?

yes you can dip it in blue dye and hang it in sun for 48hrs and wash it and again dye it .it will become new

get yourself a good lite blue dye must be a machine dye and follow instructions and make sure you put plenty of salt in the drum as it will tell you and it works really well and the reason you have lost colour from your jeans is the fact you are washing them on a hot wash 30 40 is plenty hot enough for jeans and you need to use a powder for colours good luck and when you have dyed them in your machine put a drop of bleach in empty drum and put machine on a hot wash it will clear out the drum and all will be fine

Try "Dylon" they do a cold water dye - so you can colour without making the elastane break - as the hot ones you have to do on a very hot wash plus it makes your washing machine mucky - only removed by another spin with bleach - so 2 reasons to use a cold water one.
You just put the stuff in a bucket with cold water & some salt - stir it up, stick your jeans in.
I had very good results with the purple colour so I recommend it.

Dye will make them all 1 colour exactly. They won't look sexy any more, just like cheap work jeans from tesco.
Don't do it.

A tip i replaced into as quickly as given replaced into to function salt in with the bathing powder (a pair of million/8 cup salt to a million cup powder) and wash perhaps a nil.5 dozen situations in a row with that further in each and every time. It labored nicely for my denims, that have been a lot darker as quickly as I have been given them than they have been interior the catalogue I ordered from.
