A good option is to dye your hair at home safely and without damaging it. Here are some ideas:
If you want to get a reddish colour, try marigold, rosehips or hibiscus. If you like brown better, try rosemary, nettle and sage. If you prefer blond, try chamomile, marigold, saffron and sunflower petals.
Simmer the herbs in water for 30 minutes, let it cool, strain it and apply it to your hair.
It works very well if your goal is to darken your hair. You will get a chocolate colour without damaging it.
Make a black coffee, it's best if it’s organic. Let it cool and mix it with your natural conditioner. Add two tablespoons of organic coffee beans and apply it to your hair for at least one hour. Rinse it with apple cider vinegar to make it last longer.
You can use black tea to darken your hair (although not as effective as coffee) or camomile tea to lighten it. If you want a red shade, you can use rooibos tea.
Boil two cups of water and put in 3-5 tea bags. You can apply it alone or mixed with your regular conditioner. Leave it on all night and wash your hair normally the next morning.
Ideal for achieving a more coppery tone in natural hair. For a more intense red, add more beet juice, and for a more orange tone add more carrot juice.
Mix both juices, add a spoonful of coconut oil and apply it to the hair. Leave it on for at least one hour and rinse with apple cider vinegar. Repeat the process if you want a darker shade.
It's a perfect ally if you want to make your colour lighter. Spray lemon juice on your hair and leave it on for several hours. The results are gradual, so you will have to repeat the process for several days.
This method is perfect for getting a dark-brown colour. Just shred the shells and boil them for 30 minutes. Let it cool before you apply it. Leave it on for at least an hour and rinse your hair with warm water.
These two products also naturally lighten hair by working together.
Use one cup of raw honey, two cups of distilled vinegar, one tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil and one tablespoon of ground cardamom or cinnamon. Mix them to form a paste.
Wet your hair and then apply the paste. Wrap your hair in plastic film or a towel. Leave the mixture on overnight and rinse it in the morning.
Henna powder, formed from the leaves of the henna plant, has a natural colouring pigment that works very well on hair. When used alone, henna generates a red-orange colour.
Mix one cup of henna powder with two cups of lemon juice and one tablespoon of vinegar. Let it sit for 4-6 hours and apply it. Leave it on for about 3 hours and rinse with warm water.
