im gonna dye my hair with red kool~aid ?

Mikoto

my hair is [now] a dark blonde with the underneath and bangs light blonde so if i dye it with red kool~aid what color is it gonna turn ?

Answer
You should just buy real hair-dye.
I know a person that dyed their hair with Kool-Aid and said it smelled really bad hours later, and it causes an itchy, burning sensation on the scalp, the smell also stays and takes days to get rid of.
You're better off with hair dye, it's not expensive.

Red Kool-Aid on brown hair..?

Lisa

how many packets and how long should I leave it in for?

I've heard of two different ways to go about this: mixing the Kool-Aid with conditioner and applying, or mixing the Kool-Aid pouches with water accordingly, boiling in a large pot, and applying after cool down. which one sounds more promising?

now I know everyone will say I should just buy the temporary dye, but I'd rather stick with this method for the moment.

I've never dyed my hair before, don't want to spend much on it, and don't care if it washes out after a day. as far as I'm concerned, this is just a test on-the-cheap.


thanks and appreciation for all feedback, as always.

Answer
my friend did this and it worked really well. Just make sure you use unsweetened kool aid or your hair will attract ants, or extremely thirsty people. lol

It depends on how thick and long your hair is
my friend that i mentioned earlier, used one packet just to do a strip of her hair, and the brown in her hair was completely masked by the red of the kool aid dye. Its not actual hair dye with all the chemicals in it so it doesnt matter if you leave it in too long. Probably about 10-20 minutes should do it? And if your unsure leave it in an extra 5 minutes. It wouldnt hurt.

You'll probably have to use one packet per strand. Just measure how many strands your going to dye and seperate them with clips or scrunchies. :)

lol @ the other answers: she's not crazy! some people actually do this. We were young when we tried it, like 13 yrs old, and yes we were bored. BUt thats beside the point. It works...lol

Will blue kool aid show up on my red hair? It's sort of lightish red. I tried pinkish purple and it barely showed. Would soaking it in peroxide first help? Thanks!

If you want purple hair go right ahead

How do you die your hair red with kool- aid?

JeSuSfReAk

I need instructions step by step on how to die my hair red with kool aid, red.

Answer
Kool-aid hair dye has been uses for ages on kids and people wanting a fun look on the quick -easy to do and easy to undo-my oldest must have changed her hair a dozen times with this technique. BTW it works best on blonde or light brown hair, will only highlight black, darkbrown or red. Good Luck!
*****Make sure you use unsweetened Kool-Aid. Anything else and your hair will be a mess.*****

Mix two packs of unsweetened Kool-Aid with lots of conditioner, in order to make a pasty mix.
Dampen your hair.
Apply mixture to your head.
If you're doing tips or highlights, use a highlighting wand and wrap the dyed sections in tinfoil.
Leave it in for 12 hours if you have dark hair, or 6 hours if you have blonde hair.
Rinse out when you are done, and voila!



Tips
To avoid getting the dye on your pillow, wrap your head in plastic wrap, then cover your head with an old ragged towel.
If you don't like the results, the quickest way to get it out is with toothpaste or super hot water.
Be patient! Some people think that this could damage your hair, but you are letting conditioner sit in your hair for 8 hours (average).
Gloves
Small mixing bowl
Conditioner
2 packets of unsweetened Kool-Aid
Highlighting wand (for hightlights, but if you don't have one try a pipecleaner)
Tin foil/plastic wrap
Vaseline, to put on the edges of your face so it doesn't get dyed too.

how to get kool aid off skin?

red hair kool aid image

Kristin Ni

i colored all my hair red using kool aid, & now my hands are ALL red, & so is my face. whats the best way to get kool aid off skin? please no negative comments. especially about coloring hair with kool aid.

Answer
Liquid dishwasher detergent.. Apply to effected skin, wait 5 minutes, rinse well.. Remember to apply lotion/moisturizer after, the detergent will remove natural skin oils...

In the future when coloring your hair take a few minutes to smooth a thin layer of hair conditioner over your forehead, ears, the back of your neck, etc. It creates a barrier the dye/koolaid has to penetrate before it can begin coloring your skin buying you time to fully apply the coloring product then wipe away the conditioner and any coloring produce that got on your skin with a damp paper towel....
