Bet this is a new one on everyone!!!
I am dressing up as The statue of liberty and want green hair! Any ideas what i can use that will wash straight out the next day ( i have blonde hair )? I have brought hair mascara but was considering crazy colour. what do you think?:green:

Why don't you use a coloured hairspray?
The crazy colour (or other semi) will probably take several washes before it comes out completely, depending on the porosity of your hair.
Or you could try coloured extensions?
As above, it depends on the porosity, if you have bleach etc, what about a wig ? X

chalks perfect, dont get oil base ones they stain hair, your looking for soft pastels! oil ones are a pain to get out and feel sticky :) xx

This would probably do the job - Coloured hair spray. - from Party Pants UK (http://www.partypants.co.uk/makeup/coloured-hair-spray.htm) - it's fancy dress coloured hair spray for kids... should wash out easily with shampoo...
How about this?

Try colour RUB from additional lengths, its like a hair chalk, goes really bright and washes straight out :-)
So really like actual soft pastels as in artists stuff? Wowzer I did not know this! And it washes straight out?

The hair spray does take some washing to get out!! My poor 8 yr old had green hair all weekend after dressing as an oompah loompha for school
As for the orange face paint!! Don't ask!!
