Post by: rasetsutaisho on October 01, 2005, 06:41:35 am

okay guys, right now my hair is black, sometimes if too much sun hits it it turns kind of brownish/red. anyways what im wondering is if anyone knows any good or easy ways to get hair to turn grey, or even white that doesnt damage it too much... i've never dyed my hair so i really dont even know if this is do able but i wanna cosplay as suzu from peacemaker kurogane and this whole hair thing has been kinda odd to say the least

You can buy cans of hair paint at most costume stores, and that is very temporary.  You might need to carry the can around to do touch-ups even.  Another trick that we use in theater is to apply white liquid shoe polish using a soft-bristle brush and then use a hard-bristle brush to put little bits of black in it to get a salt-and-pepper look.  This second method will stay longer, but it can be really annoying to wash out, and you *need* to wash it out before like sleeping, or the pillow will bond to your head.  I kid you not.  Hope that helps!
