Using Temp Hair Dye with Highlights?
Hi, I naturally have dark brown hair but always have bleached highlights in it. My question is, if I use one of the wash off red hair dyes for comic relief, will it still wash out of the bleached highlights?

That depends on what type of color you use.
Temporary colors come out of your hair with no problem but they only last until you wash your hair again.
Semi permanent colors should wash out of your hair. They are meant to only last 30 days or so, even when they're applied to bleach or high lift hair colors.
Demi permanent colors on the other hand, are more opaque and have more staying power. These act more like a permanent color in that way.
So, that being said... if you want the red color to wash out, use a temp color or a semi permanent color instead of a demi permanent color.
If you should have a problem removing the color, try a purple shampoo on your hair like
Clairol Shimmer Lights. Always follow up with a good shampoo or conditioner for colored hair like
Loreal Everpure.
Shea Butter Conditioners are also excellent for color treated hair but not many people know about using them.
