I'm dying a head maroon. How much water do I need?

[MeowMix]

I have a question that wasn't very clearly answered in the search. How much water, in floz. do I need to dye a Torque? I bought a bottle of liquid Wine dye, and a box of Cocoa Brown. Should I add the whole bottle and add a little of cocoa brown till I get the color I want? Thanks, this is my first dye.

use enough water to submerge the head, so the smaller the container the better

when i did maroon, i used a packet of scarlet and half a packet of dark brown. You only need enough water to submerge the head.

here is an example of what i got with this combo

A bottle is equal to 2 packs of powder right? And in the box with powder is 1 or 2 packs?

A box has one pack...also you shouldn't need to add the cocoa, from my experience just one bottle of wine makes the perfect color maroon.

Should I use the whole bottle of wine?

Doesn't Rit have a chart on their website that shows you what dyes to combine to get certain colors?

Rit has a website? I'll check that out.

Edit:I have wine and cocoa brown as zblax already said, but should I add the whole bottle and sprinkle the powder brown in?
