Is there a natural, non chemical way to dye your hair/ make it darker??

I have really fair skin, blue eyes, and honey blonde hair... I don't think my hair goes well with my eyes and skin (at least I dislike it) so I want to darken it... Preferably safe and convenient... Any tips or suggestions? thanks :)

You could try these methods:

Method one: Sage Rinse

You need a fair bit of the herb sage, preferably dried sage.

Its best to use the herb from your garden and either dry it by placing it inbetween two sheets of paper towel and zap it in the microwave for around a minute or so to dry it out, making sure to place a mug of water beside it to prevent the air becoming to dry and the paper from catching fire. The other option is to purchase the herbal tea from an organics store.

Make a strong infusion of the herb by placing it in a ceramic bowl, never metal, pour boiling water over it and cover bowl with a plate.

leave it to cool. You can also use a bit of rosemary herb in this mix as well to give a bit of colour.

What I do is make up around half a litre and mix a few tablespoons of pure apple cider vinegar with it to prevent it from going rancid and to prevent hair from drying out. Some herbs can dry the hair a fair bit. Keep it in a glass bottle and just use this to refill a blue or amber glass spray bottle, don't use a plastic one. Make sure when you fill the spray bottle that you pour the mix through a coffee filter paper to collect any sedement to prevent it from blocking the sprayer nozzle. It helps to do this with the use of a funnel and place the filter paper inside it.

How to use:

Spray in your hair and rub in, this is very subtle and take along time to show it could be a month or more before you see major results depending on how often you use it. Some people spray it on every day and rub it in then comb their hair with a wide toothed comb.

The mix should give a light to medium brown hair colour the more frequently you use it the darker it becomes, if you want it lighter stop using it and it will gradually fade. Some people let this dry and then wash their hair but you can just leave it in if you wish.

Method Two: Walnut Shells

This method is one the Greek men used to use to colour their hair.

If you can get hold of some un-rippened walnut shells and soak them in pure cold pressed virgin olive oil, simmer for around and hour or so on a low heat, just hot enough that the colour seeps from the shells into the olive oil. Greek men used to use this as a hair dress, it stains the hair with a nice deep rich brown colour. (I haven't tried this one personally but have been told it works well if done properly) I believe you leave it in for as long as possible then shampoo out with mild shampoo.

Method Three: Neutral Henna mixed with Juice

Nuetral Henna on it's own is a hair conditioner but if used with herbal infusions of vegatable juice in place of the water used to mix it up into a past it will transfer the colour to your hair. Henna is a product which builds up on the outside of your hair it is often not recommended for grey white hair as it comes out more intense. You can buy pre coloured henna. Make sure if you get black henna that is certified organic natural black henna some chemical colours used in so-called black henna can burn skin so badly users have been known to end up in hospital.

The great thing about some of these natural colours is that even hairdressers cant tell you have coloured your hair synthetic colours can often be spotted to the trained eye but natural ones a much more realistic

Simply try John Frieda brilliant brunett range which worked for my friend by bringing out her brown hairs instead of her blonde ones. Anyways, the shampoo is very good (chocolate to expresso)

Talk to a hair dresser to find out if there is a safe way for you. Everyone's hair is diffrent, so what might be safe on some people, may not be safe on you. By the way, blue eyes and blonde hair go perfect together. You might just need a safe way to tan. Good luck.
