Ben Nye Hair & Character Effects
by Special Effect Supply
Liquid Hair Colors
Ben Nye pioneered natural appearing hair colors vital to completing a performer's total look. Unlike sprays which can be stiff once dry, liquid colors can easily be managed after application. Hair Colors
contain a setting agent to keep them from flaking. Avoid use on chemically treated hair. Test
before use.
Applications: 3-10 per ounce. Flammable, Must be shipped UPS Ground
