LOL not unless you are boiling it from water from the earth's core

nah. although dont let it boil dry, and use twice as much powder as they say. it comes in little tins the size of 2 jaffa cakes on top of each other. just follow instructions, it needs to be in for a while.

there is no guarentee how it will dye tho. use lots of dye, and keep checking it, leave it in for a long time. thats yer best bet.
