Step 1
Prepare your hair for coloring why mixing 1 Tbsp. of baking soda with your regular shampoo and massaging it into your hair. Rinse with warm water and allow your hair to dry naturally. The baking soda gently removes product buildup and oils, allowing the color of the tea to seep better into your hair.

Step 2
Use a tea rinse by pouring the tea over your hair and catching the liquid in a container. Repeat 15 to 20 times and then squeeze any excess liquid from your hair.

Bring out the red in your hair by simmering 1/2 cup of rose hips in 1 qt. of water. Again, simmer until the water reaches a strong color and then cool and rinse.

Darken hair naturally by brewing black tea. Add 1/2 cup of loose black tea to 1 qt. of simmering water and steep for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cover, allowing the tea to continue to steep as it cools. Once cool, use as a rinse.
