Jeans not bleaching?

Question

I've been soaking jeans in the wash with bleach since this morning, and nothing has happened! They aren't even any lighter.

I'm not trying to make them white, just a lighter blue, they're a really dark shade now.

Any help?

Answer 1

Use hot water and laundry detergent with bleach  might work.

Answer 2

Some denim is color fast and you will have trouble bleaching those.  But look in the laundry aisle and find the product just for bleaching jeans; that may work.

Answer 3

what kind of bleach are you using?(make sure it isn't the color safe bleach but regular bleach)

try washing them and see if it makes any difference.
