I have a quick roach quesiton. I am in the process of shaping a roach for a friend. The inside hair is white and the outside hair is a great royal blue. In the past, I have had a little bit of the dye come off on my elastic wrap (after I sprayed it with water to help in the shaping), but it hasn't been a problem as both the inside and outside hair has been the same color.

I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion on shaping this roach so that I don't bleed some of the blue onto the white. I am open to just about anything. Thanks in advance.

Instead of just spraying it...shampoo it, rinse it and then wrap it up. Will take longer to shape (dry out that is) but will prevent the bleeding you are worried about.

Bum...thanks for the idea. Any recommendation on the type of shampoo?

No need to buy anything fancy...just use the same stuff you use on your own hair. Oh by the way...I hope the base isn't lighter than the Blue you used cause the shampoo washes out the excess dye in the tail and could stain a lighter colored base.
