I'm trying for the negative brainwaves this time.

hair dye works
comes already as almost a paste/gel so doesn't need a carrier


I used too much, a little goes a lonnnnnnngggggg way


Edit: ignore the bumps the disc was well used/abused when I messed with it

^ hmmmm.... nice color.... Just wonder if the color will dim in the couple of days.

I'll keep y'all updated on it

I like how bright it is.... just can't see myself paying that much for it. I think once we figure out a good carrier, we can get a group buy for some good dye (I am guessing that Jeff had spoken to a dye retailer in the same way) custom bright colors from a manufacturer.

Yeah $15 is pricey, but I used about a quarter sized gob of it. Didn't really make a dent in the amount remaining.

Interesting....... that may be my next purchase when I run out of my current dye...
