Add Color to Your Hair with Coffee

by Nilankeeta May 31, 2015

Natural hair dye recipes are numerous but are you aware of coffee is one of them? Yes, coffee can actually dye your hair, isn’t that a rather inexpensive product to use. What more could we ask for, right. Dyeing hair is just not for covering greys, but one can always dye hair to get great color in the hair and when that happens minus chemicals, nothing like it. These days premature greying is an issue that youngsters complain of.


The stress and tensions of fast-paced life leave their mark in one way or the other and premature greying of hair is one such issue. It might look really easy to head to a salon and get the job of dying done but is that worth it? Especially if you have skin allergies, health issues, or if you are pregnant, the chemicals can cause damage in several ways to your health. Hence going the natural way is always recommended.

Coffee

Method: To make your own coffee dye spray, brew a strong coffee. Then take it off the flame and allow it to set to room temperature. That’s it, your coffee spray is ready. You can transfer this into a pump dispenser bottle and spray it into your hair. Spray it on the desired area and massage the dye into the hair roots working towards the tip of the hair. Keep the dye on the hair for 20 minutes. You may also directly pour the coffee on the head after the shampoo rinse. To get the desired darkest shade of brown repeat the process for a couple of more days. Maintain the color by doing this twice every week.
