No more natural gray hair
As we well know, over time the body stops producing some substances, precisely melanin is one of them. When this happens, the whitening process of graying begins to invade our hair.
While it is true that the genetic factor has a lot to do with it, it also has to do with this interrupted natural process. As a result, melanin affects the color of the gray threads, and they then turn white.
For this remedy, let’s see what we need:
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp. of Coffee powder
- 2 Tomatoes (grated and strained)
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
Preparation:
- To start, choose the 2 tomatoes preferably ripe, wash them well and proceed to grate them.
- Then, strain the liquid from the tomatoes. One suggestion is to do it with a fine sieve to get a very consistent juice.
- Next step, add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and mix well.
- Finally, add the 2 tablespoons of coffee powder and stir very well until the ingredients are completely integrated.
How to use:
- First, we’re going to apply this mixture with the same brush that we used for conventional dyeing. We will spread it all over the hair and each strand, with patience we will advance through each strand or strand to make the pass complete.
- Next step, leave it on for about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Finally, once the time has elapsed, wash the hair as we usually do.
The results are amazing!
Important: Obviously the results of the first application may not be 100% as we would like, but with patience we must repeat this method a few times until the strands are completely stained.
Recommendations:
It is a 100% natural product for dyeing white hair, so it does not damage the scalp, it is totally harmless.
Remember, it is not miraculous, however in some people with just the first application the changes are already noticeable. In contrast to purchased tinctures, we know their chemical components are harmful as they can irritate the skin and eyes.
