Okay, so I have this book and it explains how to dye/hilight your hair with kool-aid. Here are the instructions (for highlighting, since I don’t want to dye it)…
WHAT YOU NEED:
- two packets of your favorite kool-aid color (the longer and darker your hair, the more packets you’ll need)
-conditioner
-vinegar
-pipe cleaner/painbrush/toothbrush
-foil
-hair-dryer
-plastic gloves
-mixing bowl
-vaseline
BEWARE! this project is messy, and kool-aid will stain. Wear an old T-shirt to protect your clothes, and have a buddy help you.
HIGHLIGHTS
Kool-Aid highlights are a great solution for darker hair, which doesn’t absorb the kool-aid color as dramatically as lighter shades. For this, you’ll be applying concentrated amounts of kool-aid color to dry strips of your air rather than drenching your whole head in color.
Ina medium sized bowl, mix the two packets of unsweetened kool-aid with several generous dollops of hair conditioner (about twice as much as you would usually use on the hair you’re highlighting). Stir it until it forms a nice paste, with no lumps. If it’s too thick, you can add a few drops of water. If it’s too gritty, add more conditioner. For more vibrant color, and to help the dye stick, you can also add a teaspoon of vinegar.
Grab a small section of hair, and use the pipe cleaner/paintbrush/tooth brush to apply the paste from root to tip. Once you have the paste spread on evenly and generously, wrap that section of your hair in tin foil and go onto the next section. Once you’ve done that to al,l the sections you want to color, use a hair dryer (on low) on there foiled sections to bake in the color. Remove the foil when you’re done.
What I want to know is- has anyone ever tried this before? did you do it like this? has it worked well? ect

I just want to try it cause it sound like more fun (than regular dye) and I’ve been bored
