temporary hair dye

[topaz]

I started to ask the Internet this, but then I realized that my friends are actually way more awesome than the Internet:

How well do temporary hair dyes work? Do they wash out right away? Do they produce bright and vivid colors? Which brands are best?

ETA: this is a one-day thing, so super-temporary dye shampoos and the like are potentially fine.

If we were to apply more than one color--say, a mohawk with colored sides--is that likely to be way too complicated for an amateur to attempt on their first try? Would we want to use a semipermanent dye for that, rather than the totally temporary ones?

Closer to home, Newbury Comics or Hot Topic should both carry it.

Last I checked Hot Topic now carries their own,really crappy,Manic Panic ripoff. I also like Special Effects. In your family hair is pale enough you probably won't have to bleach first too much, but to get really intense colour it helps to prebleach what you want to do

also, temp colours last longer on paler hair
