I'm Asian and I want to dip dye me hair with Kool aid, but I can't find a good tutorial for me. There are plenty of tutorials but there doesn't seem to be one for Asians! Any suggestions or directions?

I think Kool Aid dye only works for blonde/ light hair. If you are still a brunette like in your profile pic, it won't work. But you are supposed to mix some of the Kool Aid into your shampoo and conditioner- that's what I've heard anyway :) Hope that helps!

I believe it is supposed to work for brown hair if you do red. I hope the shampoo works! Thanks!

It will fade really fade and stop looking good, if you do it then just get it professionally done so it doesn't fade :)

My best friend dyed a red streak in her fringe last year and it went from red to orange to pink to a salmon pink and it didn't come out of six months or so! At first it looked nice but then it went funny. Also if only works on light brown/blonde hair

You don't have to use bleach! I used the L'Oreal Super Blonde Creme Hair Lightening kit on the bottom portion of my hair and it worked perfectly fine. It's really easy to do at home too! Afterwards I dyed a bit of my hair purple on top and it showed up unbelievable well. There's another picture of my hair down on my Beautylish page. :)

It can stain, and it might help it you did a bleach treatment on the ends of your hair so the kool aid will really grab on to your hair!
