^agreed it needs to be done well. I have a tie die shirt with hendrix on the front, i know it sounds cliche but shits wicked old. one of my buddies who was an OFFICIAL dead head got it like 30 years ago and gave it to me, so i have to represent.
other than that i have mad plain white tight-fitting undershirts that i pretty much only wear underneath my scrubs. it would be really intense to wear em around town or whatnot.
tie dye is freakin awesome. We've made them a couple of times. With a little creativity you can make some kick ass shirts. I made one that totally looked like a sunset on the ocean.
i tend to like it more with colors that aren't the classic line-up, you know, just a rainbow. dark blue and green and then a really strong yellow highlight or a bright pink...it's nice.
yay, if you can do it yourself and it's not like every other tie dye you see on the street. for instance, i dyed a shirt once with the remains of the dye that i had, and it ended up being mostly white with a speckled spiral on it. i recommend trying it
nay as of recently, i've seen some kids with really dirty unwashed hair hippy like and way to many coulours, really didnt do it for me at all... i havent seen it tastfully done in a bit
