Are you searching for a natural way to bring back the color of your hair when it was younger? If you want to stop using chemical hair dyes, you can try making your own dye with instant coffee and indigo powder. This natural blend can make your hair darker overnight. If used regularly, you may notice long-lasting effects. Here is an easy guide on how to naturally darken your white hair using these ingredients.
Why do people use coffee and indigo powder? Coffee has a lot of antioxidants. When you use it on your hair, it can make your hair color look darker and livelier. Indigo powder comes from the indigo plant and has been traditionally used to dye hair and fabrics in dark blue to black colors. When you mix these two together, they make a dye that is good for your hair and scalp.
List of ingredients:
2 tablespoons of quick coffee
2 tablespoons of blue powder
1 cup of warm water
You can add a little bit of salt to help the dye set.
Directions:
Mix the dye:
In a bowl that can handle heat, mix the instant coffee with one cup of hot water until it dissolves. Let it cool a bit.
After the coffee cools down, mix in the indigo powder and, if desired, the salt. Stir until you get a smooth mixture.
Use:
Put the mixture on your hair when it is clean and dry. The best way is to wear gloves and use a hair dye brush to spread the mixture evenly.
Separate your hair and put the paste from the top to the ends. Ensure that every piece is thoroughly covered.
Let it sit overnight.
