I did this just this last summer in June and it stayed in all summer long! I think we did it wrong or something. Maybe let it sit too long? I thought all the color was coming out so I stopped washing it half way so all the color wouldn't come out. That was probably my mistake. oops. There are still some small tints if it hits the light right but not very seeably at all anymore. I had red in mine. I have blonde hair. I might try purple or blue this next summer and maybe it will stay right. lol
leaving it on for a couple hours does make it last a little longer, but what really determines how long it will last is the condition of your hair. Your hair cannot hold any kind of color, wheter it be kool aid or permanents, if your hair is in bad codition. it will just come right out and maybe leave you with a not so pretty tint.

It IS good for one day use. But the length of time you leave it in your hair will also determin the leangth of time it will dye your hair. if you leave it in your hair for 5 minutes then yes it will only last a day. If you leave it in for 8-9 hours like i did, then the result is longer. Mine is still there in fact. very faint but still there.

Alright. With darker hair it doesnt work. you have to bleach it first. sadly. But you can have fun with it. And as far as the smell goes. It washed out when i took my first shower.
How long does it last? And I have pretty dark brown hair, but I only want subtle streaks of green, do you think this would work for that? I really don't want to dye it any more with chemicals.
When dying yarn with koolaid, you add a bit of vinegar to the dye and that sets the dye in the yarn. I wonder if that would help with dying hair as well?
Thanks for the how-to :]
