Color Hair With Food Coloring

Color Hair With Food Coloring


Food coloring can safely be used as a hair dye for coloring your hair. It is semi-permanent and usually takes two to four weeks to completely wash out of your hair. The longer you leave the food coloring in, the darker the color of your hair, and the longer it lasts. Colors show up better on lighter hair than darker. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Mix several drops of food coloring and a couple tablespoons os shampoo in an empty shampoo bottle. The more food coloring you use, the darker the shade of color created. Put the top on the bottle, and shake it well to mix. You can add a couple of drops of water if it seems to thick.


2. Wet your hair thoroughly, and then massage the food coloring and shampoo through your hair. Be sure to cover your entire head of hair evenly if you are trying to dye your whole head. You can also separate segments of your hair and dye only part of it.


3. Leave the food coloring in your hair for six to 12 hours. If you have blond or light brown hair, six hours is probably enough. If your hair is dark brown or black, leave it longer.


4. Jump into the shower, and rinse out the colored shampoo. Towel dry your hair, and then dry it with a blow dryer, or let it dry naturally.


5. Avoid washing your hair for three to five days. After that, you can wash it as you normally would, but each time that you wash it, the color lightens. Depending on how dark you dyed it, the food coloring completely washes out within a month.
