The invention relates to a method for the continuous dyeing of warp ends, in particular cotton warp ends, with indigo or other dyestuff groups which, after impregnating and squeezing out, require oxidation or thermal treatment for fixing. The method eliminates the disadvantages of traditional methods for the continuous dyeing of warp ends. In particular, the required bath amount is considerably reduced by this method. By using a new dyeing reactor (1), the residence time of the warp ends in the dyeing installation can be varied without having to increase the bath volume. The option of heating or cooling the dyeing bath enables a fixing temperature between below room temperature and over 100° C. to be chosen. Optimal conditions can thus be created for all dyeing methods which are habitual for warp ends. In this way, the number of immersion-oxidation processes in the indigo dyehouse can be reduced and the growing demand for indigo blue jeans material with different wash resistances and shades can thus be catered for with increased flexibility. And the same can be done for black and colored denim.
