If I remember right (I did it mid-90s!) boil the water, add the Kool-Aid, DO NOT add sugar (perhaps that's why one PP's friend said it attracted bees?)
If you want red, Black Cherry works great. My hair was like a medium-light brown back then, worked great.
Thanks for the info...I think we might try this for my dd. She has been wanting a red or pink stip for a very long time.
