Oh my gosh I haven't done that since high school which is sadly a long time ago lol. I do remember that you must protect your hands and any exposed skin bc I stains really bad. My bf had blue hands for over a week. People kept asking her if she was dating a surf lmao.

Please don't. It's super damaging, and you won't get it out. It basically tears open the hair cuticle and sticks inside it. Causing lots of damage and split ends way up. So if you ever want another hair color you have to wait to cut it off and grow it out. Plus you'll need a huge cut to get rid of the damage. There are dyes made specifically for this that are much safer for your hair. They are usually around 12$ and condition rather than boil and dry out your hair. There's zero risks to using a veggie dye like manic panic. There are tons of risks with using Kool-aid.

Just be aware that it does not fade...at ALL. My friend used it on a small strip of hair and it was present until she redyed it.

It shouldn't be damaging as you are just depositing color but I guess you should maybe google it to be safe.
