Default Dyeing hair for one night only

Is it possible? I want to dye my hair green but only for one night. What sort of stuff should I use? And do I need anything special to get it back out again in the morning?

Thanks

Dave, you need a temporary spray on dye that washes out with shampoo: Colour and Glitter Hair Spays Fancy Dress Costumes - Online Fancy Dress Shop - AbFab

Anyway, why? Is it a new pulling technique you're trying??

Is that not a bit drastic to cover up a bit of grey?

Im going as the Joker from the new Batman film for Halloween. Thought its a little more original to vampires and such like. Ive heard spray is the best way and if its too light a little boot polish to darken or dirty it up might go down well but dont know how hard that will be to get out.

And remember the best temporary spray make you can get is by "Permanent Limited", just look for the bottles that say Permanent on them.

I used the spray on stuff in my hair - bright orange and green stripes (Student days, went to a party as a punk).

It washes straight out - which is something to be VERY wary of... if it's raining, you need to go very girlie and use an umbrella

We all once tried to take the **** out of our Squadron boss by getting some silver powder to put a silver streak in our hair like his for a big squadron party. It worked very well on the night and he took it well, but we could not get the colouring out and we all had grey hair for a couple of weeks. Talk about having the last laugh!

Yeah, the spray on stuff is gonna do the trick, I'm sure.
I remember spraying my hair purple, for some reason, when I was a student.
I'm going bald now, fyi

Being a cruel bastid, and my *cough* 28th birthday being the day after Halloween, I'm insisting that everyone turns out as if they are James Bond or a Bond girl.

Apart from one lass, who I've told we're all going as Smurfs
