Warnings and Risks When Using Coffee Hair Dye
Below are some additional tips to help ensure your success:
If your hair then gets excessively wet (in heavy rain), some of the coffee dye may leak out of your hair and onto your clothes.
Make sure to wear an old t-shirt or cloth around your shoulders when applying this mixture; it will stain clothes and be difficult to remove.
You may want to divide them into smaller parts if you have long hair to make the application process easier. Use clips to hold the sections in place.
If you have light hair, consider using a darker roast for best results.
You can also use this method to conceal gray roots: simply apply the coffee mixture to your scalp and let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing.
Don’t forget to condition your hair after using this dye – this will help keep the color fresh and your hair soft.
