Dyeing wool roving



Has anyone ever tried to dye wool roving or yarns with commerical, over-the-counter, human hair dye? 
 
I'm trying to come up with an inexpensive way to do wigs.  With Halloween wigs running around $30 and roving at $0.90/oz. I thought this might be a good thing to try.  The roving only comes in white, black, gray and a whole host of colors that are only appropriate for Goth or something at the height of London Punk.
 
I know that there may be felting issues if I'm not careful, but can anyone think of a reason it won't work?
