I am thirteen and I have been dying my hair with semi-permenent colors for almost a year, and I would like to try something different. I really want to dye the tips of my hair either blue or green. I wanted to know if I could use some sort of food coloring so I can change it often. I went to a website and it said that I could also use Kool-Aid or Jello to acheive this look. How do I use them and how long will they stay in? I go swimming a lot and was also wondering if the color would come out in the pool? If you could help me it would be appreciated! Thanks! Eryn

it depends. if your hair is blonde food colouring or kool aid will turn out more but i imagine it won't turn out on brown hair. i'm 13 too and alot of the guys in my grade use kool aid to dye their hair and it doesn't damage your hair and i don't think it lasts very long so if you have blonde hair then go for it!!!  ------------- Caileigh |

Don't use Kool-Aid or food coloring! Especially if you have blonde hair. Depending on how damaged your hair is it could stay in for a loooong time! Go to a drug store such as Walgreens and look at the brands of semi-permenant hair color in unnatural shades. They have quite a few different brands! Get the one that fits your needs. Keep food coloring for FOOD and Kool-aid for your mouth! ------------- |
