I am an amateur at tie-dye! I used easy-to-purchase and easy-to-use dyes for that reason.
All shirts were pre-washed with a free & clear detergent and were damp when they were tied and dyed. Tulip instructions recommend a 6-8 hour dye time, but a rabbit hole of tie-dye info later and I left in a closed zip bag for 24 hours each. It’s hard to argue with the results! Each shirt was hand rinsed until the water was clear and then washed alone twice with detergent, each time with an extra rinse. The zip bags were also washed and dried for reuse for future craft projects.
If you’re looking to make your own tie-dye, I found great inspiration from the following channels:
