When i made this for the first time i put it on alinium foil... not the best idea. haha It got stuck to it and it was pretty hard to get off... wax paper would probably be a better bet :)

One of my best friends I went to hair school with brought this to class and shared it with me... I have been dyeing to get the recipe from her even since. i just got it from her a couple of weeks ago and I decided I would share it with everyone... Thanks for the recipe Kelli, you are the best!! Hope you enjoy!
