Kool-Aid Girls

Cat has been wanting to try some kind of hair dye for months now.  We decided the Kool-Aid method was something we could both live with: fun, spunky, cheap, and temporary.  We used these directions, and it worked out perfectly!  Eliza wanted to do her hair also, but she used a slightly more diluted solution, and her ponytail wasn't as long as Cat's, so her result was less vibrant and the dye doesn't show up as much in the front, but she still loves it.  We did it about a week and a half ago and both girls' red is fading, so I think they'll be back to their normal hair color before school starts.

Soaking the ends of the ponytails in the Kool-Aid solution for 10 minutes.
