I am not quite sure if it will come out of your hair right away, it seems like it would. I would try it on a small peice of hair that is towards the bottom of your hair and not easily seen first and then if it comes out easily you can use it on the rest of your hair. If it doesn't come out right away i'm pretty sure it will wear off.

Food coloring is safe. It will probably take about a week to wash out. I was BOZO the CLOWN one year and I had a perm and the color stayed in my hair for about a week. I wasn't the only one in school with color in their hair. There was alot of kids so if you are only going to school or college than that is not so bad.

Before you know it your hair will be back to normal.

(give it a week or 2)
