Using coffee as hair dye?
Has anyone done this? I posted about possibly using Henna, but I've continued to research options and found some YouTube videos on using coffee. Let me know your results if you have done this. TIA!

I've never used coffee, but I have used henna in the past.
I loved the henna, though it makes your hair smell for a day or two. Not bad, just....henna-y.
I always used the cremes, like this:

I'd recommend trying this first before you try any powder mixes, as it's easier and will give you an idea how it will look and how long it will last in your hair. (or me it was 3 months or so). You just shampoo, apply to your hair, let it sit, and rinse.
Also, don't forget that once you use henna on your hair, you can't use any synthetic dyes on your hair until the henna-ed part grows out.
Hope that helps?
