Jello Didn't Dye Hair

My daughter recently asked to color the ends of her hair. A friend of hers had used Jello successfully so we decided to give it a try. I researched it online and found a method that combined Jello and conditioner, making it into a paste. We followed the instructions exactly, my daughter has very light blonde hair, and we left it on her hair for over an hour. When we rinsed it out there wasn't even a hit of color! It was a waste of products and time. :(
