What are some different ways to KoolAid dye your hair?

I mix the packet with a couple tablespoons of conditioner then apply to sections using aluminum foil. I let it sit a long time -hours- then rinse out. Came out best on my niece's super blonde and my mom's white-gray hair. Have fun!!!

If you want it on your whole head then I would mix it with conditioner and water, and if you want to dip dye the ends then you can boil water in a pot, pour in your cool aid, stir it then dip. I have brown
Hair and I tried the first method and it worked for me, however koolaid has staining properties so it stained my scalp for a couple days after. Just a tip, make sure that you get sugar free koolaid

One of my friends used the red and it never came out of her hair. She had to bleach it twice to get rid of it!

If you have dark brown hair. Don't do the conditioner unless you bleach it first. Mine showed up green because I didn't bleach it. Good luck!

Look up chalking for a natural and on trend temp hair color solution. Cool aid has a lot of chemicals that are likely to fade out & hang around (and not in a good way!) it's also great for all hair colors and doesn't need bleach etc. to activate.

If they just want to do the tips boil water and put the cool aid in it mix it and dip the hair leave it there for like 1 min and then with a paper towel Dab the hair

If you're looking for temporary, take a packet of kool aid in whatever color you want, (make sure it's sugar free) and mix the whole contents with a tablespoon of conditioner. Paint it on to the area of hair that you want to dye and cover with tin foil when you are done and let sit for 8 hours. This method will last for about 2 weeks. The other method will be more permanent. Take 2 packets of what ever color you want and mix with about a half a cup of water in a mug and boil it. ( I just used the microwave) then take the section of hair you want to dye and dip in the mug. This method is really only useful for dip dying.. Anyway I tied the bottom 3 inches of my hair with an elastic and dipped in my mug. Let the hair sit for 15-20 minutes. When the times up rinse well and you're done!! I did this to my hair in July using sugar free grape kool aid. That was five months ago, and the purple is still visible on my hair. It's very faded, but still visible. Be warned, the boiling method leaves very vibrant color for at least 2-3 months. Sorry that was so long... Lol

I'm pretty sure koolaid is super damaging for hair...

Don't know the effects of kool-aid on hair, but I would definitely go with a professional dye. Both of them stain your hair, which means they both have amazing vibrancy for about a week, then they fade and take quite a while to fully dissappear, even if you try to bleach them.

Get the koolaid in whatever color don't put any sugar in it. Boil water on the stove & put the koolaid in the water after the koolaid is hot dip or apply the koolaid to where ever you want the color in your hair hope it helps!

If you have blonde hair like me it works really well but if you have dark hair and even if you do a dark kool aid color such as purple on brown hair it turns out as a light maroon color

But if you bleach your hair before you kool aid it it will turn out good. But you only have to bleach where you want the kool aid to go
