HOW TO: Dye your hair with Kool-Aid


This photo is from Brenda's Nintendo, but I swear it is actually blue. So here is what we did. First of all, Brenda has a lot of hair, so we bought enough kool-aid packets to make a thick paste for her hair (5 I think for her, 3 or 4 for Bret's shorter and less thick hair). Squeeze enough conditioner into a bowl to cover her hair (for Brenda this was more than 1/3 of the bottle, no kidding!) and mix the kool-aid into it. Then apply thickly onto the hair. Cover the hair with a plastic bag (I used a Kroger bag and tied it at the back of her head so it was tight around her head.)

Leave the hair sit over night. The girls both tell me it was itchy on their scalp. Bret's hair was pink lemonaid. It washed out pretty quickly within a month. Brenda's blue never did wash out completely, but this is not a concern of hers and she is ready for her next color. lol.
