Ok I know you think it's crazy,
but you can dye your hair with Kool-Aid! It really works and
it's on around 50 cents! You do have to be patient though, because
for best results, you have to leave it in for 12 hours. All you
do is get a small mixing bowl, tin foil, plastic gloves ( without
the gloves it will dye your skin), two packs of kool-aid and
some conditioner.
You mix the conditioner with
the kool-aid so its pasty, not liquidy! Then you apply it to
your hair, if you are just dyeing your tips or highlights wrap
up the dyed sections in tin foil or plastic wrap. If you are
dyeing your whole head, pile up the dyed hair on your head and
wrap it all up with plastic wrap. If you can't stand 12 hours
at least try six. If you don't have any gloves, before you dye
your hair cover your hands in Vaseline, then once you are done
wash your hands in olive oil sugar and toothpaste once or twice
to get the dye off your hands! If your hair is dark, it won't
be as bright, more like a tint, but it still looks great. |

Sage rinse for hair...I have
just read this tip in "Little House in the Ozarks",
by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Also:
2) The addition of a little
baking soda to some rinse water will lighten the hair and help
to make it fluffy.
3) Buttermilk will whiten the
face and hands. ( Lactic acid)
4) Salt and soda good to scrub
teeth.
5) A bar of castile soap is
good, and no perfume which dries the skin out.

she was using the best of what she had. She was using rose water
and glycerine was her moisturizer. |
