1. Coffee
Coffee isn’t just for your morning wake up call. It has potential to become your next hair colour. So if you are in the mood to dye your hair a shade darker, then try the coffee, coffee grounds and conditioner mixture on your damp hair. This may help to hide those grays and are great for a quick, temporary colour change.
2. Beetroot and carrot juice
The beets, as their appearance suggests, lend a beautiful reddish colour to your hair. For a beetroot dye, mix beetroot and carrot juice together and spray the mixture on your hair. You can add some coconut oil to this mixture too. After applying, cover it up for an hour before rinsing it with cold water.
3. Lemon juice
The only job of lemons is not just to make lemonade. Try a lemon hair dye and you’ll know. Mix lemon juice and water in equal portions and spray on your hair. Sit in the sun, leaving it on. This will give you a natural lightened hair colour. It may take a few sittings to get your desired lightened shade. Mind you, unlike other dyes this one last really long and cannot be undone within a few weeks or months. Trimming your hair will be the only way.
4. Chamomile Tea
