Kool Aid Dip Dye Hair Tutorial

        

       Hi there, so for this post I will give you a Kool-Aid hair dye tutorial we tried. My darling little lady wanted hair like the girls from her new favorite movie Disney's Descendants. I mean how cool are they! Heck I want hair as awesome as they have too! I did not want to put harsh chemicals in her hair so opted for a less invasive approach. Its really cheap too! I found lots of tutorials online. I tweaked one to get a brighter color and it worked out fantastic! I was hesitant to use the blue we picked because it looked so light, but the color took great on her light brown hair. Results were a beautiful teal shade! Darker hair I would imagine would have less vibrant results. With so many colors of Kool-Aid the possibilities are endless! I think that if you have dark hair you could apply store bought bleach for hair to your ends. Then the Kool-Aid and achieve great results too! * Disclaimer... I did not try this myself but if you are more ambitious and braver than I am go for it and let me know!

You will need:  

* 3 packets of Kool-Aid in any color you choose. I read blue, red, and purple take the best.

* Disposable gloves! Take it from me these are needed if you don't want smurf fingers!

* A pot with 1 cup water

* A towel or old shirt you do not care about

* Newspapers to protect your work space


Lets get started....

* First get 1 cup water boiling in the pot and dissolve the Kool-Aid.
* Remove  pot from heat and put hair in pony tail.
* Cover back with old towel or shirt.
* PUT ON GLOVES! 
* While water is still hot pour into a heat safe container .
* Dip the ends of hair into the container and let sit for 15 minutes or longer. We did 15.
* Take hair out and squeeze out excess water.
* Towel dry hair and let it dry completely.

Patiently waiting

Remember the gloves I said you would need!

The results! A beautiful vibrant teal

     We washed her hair later that day before bed. We wanted the color to really absorb first. This should last 5-15 shampoos or maybe longer. We are at like 10 washes now and the color has faded some but still looks really good.

After 10 shampoos.

     I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. If you try it let me know how it worked for you. Bye for now xoxox!
