Tried to dye my hair blue last night, once again proving that my hair is NOT interested in doing anything but being it's own natural magnificent self. Which could be worse, obviously, but apparently I can't really have a lot of fun with it LOL
Took the packet of blue Kool-Aid and mixed it with half the amount of (cold) water suggested for making the drink (I can't believe that people actually ingest this crap voluntarily! Yikes!), poured it into a wide bowl, and read a book, the lower half of my hair soaking, for ten minutes, and stirring occasionally. When the buzzer went off, I rinsed briefly in the shower, and revealed myself to have....normal looking hair.
Naturally, darling hubby offered all of the usual supportive commentary, like "Why aren't you dying ALL of your grey hair?" and "My blue-haired old wife" and "Why aren't you dying the upper half, where all the grey is?"
*SMACK*
Grey hair doesn't make me look old, dear, wrinkles do, do I have wrinkles? (clever lad said that I did not LOL)
Anyway, Kool-Aid as a hair dye is a failure - not even the greys took on a blue tinge, have to say I'm rather disappointed!
(But my head DID smell like Kool-Aid until my hair dried, which made me laugh)
