Dye Brown Hair With Kool Aid

For dark brown hair.

Dye brown hair with kool aid. For instance in light blonde hair grape kool aid creates a pinkish purple while in the dark brown base it will leave hair with deep reddish purple after 30 minutes to an hour s leave in dye. It was almost a bright teal color. Boil water and kool aid on the stove in a small saucepan.

Depending on how much hair you have you will need to use about 3 6 packets of kool aid powder. Time may vary depending on your hair color. My sister has almost the same hair color as me but she used purple and it didn t show up at all.

Pick up a dollop of the pre mixed kool aid dye paste with the brush and apply it directly to your hair. You can refer to the kool aid hair dye color chart for more details. Brush it on working from the roots to the tips until the whole section is covered.

For other colors such as blue and purple it s best to lighten the hair. Kool aid is best known as a drink mix for kids but you can also take advantage of its bright color to create a homemade hair dye. I wanted to make sure the color was bright bold and lasting so i put 3 kool aid packets in with 1 cup of water.

I have used the mixed berry kool aid to dye my hair the slow way and it actually showed up really well. I left my hair in the kool aid for about 2 3 minutes since it has already been dyed with kool aid. If you have dark brown hair lemon probably will do nothing.

Sadly this method is a bit biased the color shows up best and most vibrant on blonde hair lighter brown hair and hair that has previously been bleached. Leave your hair in the kool aid for about 5 7 minutes. Use a highlighting brush to paint 1 in 2 5 cm sections of hair with kool aid dye.
