Haircolor by Kool Aid
This is a super easy, super cheap, super messy way to temporarily color your hair!
We used about 3 to 5 squirts of hair conditioner to 3 packets of the same flavor Kool aid. DO NOT use it with sugar, just the flavor packet. Kool Aid stains everything …so be careful!
You may need to add a bit of water. You don’t want it to drip off of your hair but it needs to be spreadable. Remember to use old or disposable cups as this will stain whatever you use. We used paint brushes to put it on our hair.
Seperate hair into sections and paint some of the Kool Aid color on to hair. Avoiding scalp and skin.
Next we wrapped the colored hair in foil to keep it from staining anything else.
It is key to leave it in your hair as long as you can…the longer the better. So we slept in ours. It does get a little itchy!
Then we rinsed it out really well and gently washed our hair.
Voila…strawberry, black cherry, cherry and blue raspberry hair color!!!
It has been almost a week since we colored our hair and since the girls went swimming a few times theirs has faded some but mine is still pretty bright. We all have really light hair so the color took well. If your hair is more brown it won’t be as dark as ours. It was only supposed to last about a week…hmmm. I may have pink hair for a little longer than expected!

i think my hair’s too dark. but i can live vicariously through you.
They look beautiful!
I also used Black Cherry. I had a friend that wanted to do his hair blue. The only problem was he had very dark, almost black hair. So the blue kool aid only stained his scalp blue. IT was hilarious!
Is it going to turn my tub pink? That should be interesting
Thanks for sharing this!!!
