Are there any home made ways to highlight your hair black temporarily?

I was just wondering... because i was just going to streak it with a permanant marker... i've done it before, and it works... but its probably bad for your hair... and i have really nice hair... so is there any other ways?Are there any home made ways to highlight your hair black temporarily?
There are tons of temporary dyes that you can buy if you just want to test how a color would look in your hair. There are two types of temporary hair dye, called semi-permanent or demi-permanent.





Semi-permanent color is designed to deposit color onto the hair only and has no


lightening effect. The formula includes an activator that develops the color and helps to


raise the cuticle of the hair shaft so that the color can be deposited there. Semi-


permanent color doesn't penetrate into the cortex of the hair, but it will usually last from


six to eight weeks, gradually washing out with each shampoo.





Demi-permanent color is also a deposit-only color with no lightening effect. The


difference between the Semi- and Demi-permanent colors is that with demi-permanent


color the color molecules are smaller and therefore penetrate into the cortex of the hair,


as well as being deposited on and in the cuticle. This makes demi-permanent color a


better choice for covering gray hair. The color achieved also lasts longer, but will fade


due to the formulation of smaller color molecules being able to come back through the


cuticle with each shampoo.





So, in short, demi permanent and semi permanent last about the same amount of time, but it really depends on what effect you want. If you want really intense color, I would go with a demi permanent, but if you don't want your color to ';fade out'; as much, go with semi permanent.





Most of these dyes are fairly cheap, depending on where you shop. My favorite temporary dye is from Hot Topic, its called Raw Color... it costs around $15 per bottle. You can also pick temporary dye up from Wal-Mart, or any drug store. Make sure you get SEMI or DEMI permanent, or the dye will stay much longer than you want it to.





Hope that helped!Are there any home made ways to highlight your hair black temporarily?
Sharpie
Mascara. Just make sure it's not waterproof.
use a temporary hair color that will wash out the next time you get your hair wet or use semipermanent color for it to last like 6-8 shampoos.
