Start by brewing a strong cup of black coffee and let it cool.
Mix the cooled coffee with the ground coffee and conditioner until it forms a thick paste.
Apply the mixture to clean, damp hair, focusing on areas with white hairs. Make sure to cover your roots to the ends of your hair.
Put on a shower cap and leave the mixture on for 30–60 minutes. The longer you leave it, the deeper the color will be.
Rinse your hair with lukewarm water (no shampooing right after).
Allow your hair to air dry to achieve the best shine.
Here are a few tips to ensure you get the best results from your DIY coffee hair dye:
Repeat this process 1–2 times a week for longer-lasting color. The more consistent you are, the better the results will be.
While the effect is semi-permanent, the color will build up beautifully with continued use.
If you prefer a darker shade, you can add a teaspoon of cocoa powder or a splash of black tea to the mixture.
Avoid shampooing your hair right after applying the coffee dye. It’s best to wait at least 24 hours for the color to set properly.
With just coffee and conditioner, you can achieve naturally tinted, shiny brown hair right in the comfort of your own home. Say goodbye to harsh chemicals and hello to beautiful results straight from your kitchen!
