So this just struck me as I am looking around at making a lip stain from beets. I am seeing a lot of recipes that use beet root powder as opposed to fresh beets like I wanted to use but then I thought since cocoa powder is being recommended as a dry shampoo for brunettes then maybe beet powder is what us red heads need. Anyone try it? I was not aware of beet powder before this.

Only one way to find out...

I would be concerned about if it fell & got everywhere it would stain.

Let me know :)

I don't know about dry shampoo. I don't think anyone treats cocoa as a dry shampoo. It doesn't remove dirt and oil, it just soaks it up so your hair doesn't look oily.

It stains VERY badly.

Don't go there!!

Love beets! They're tasty and I use them as a natural Easter egg dye, fuchsia on white eggs, maroon on brown. Good luck!
