hey it's renee so just to clarify myfirst name is katie my middle name is renee i know a coupleof videos i said my name is katie i don't want you guys to think i havelike double personalities or anything so you can call me whatever you want katierenee katie renee anyways i am so excited to do this video todaycoffee hair dye my two favorite things
organic at home hair color, in the whole worldhair color and coffee so i'm not exactly sure if this is going to give like goodresults are not i've never used cofee as a hair dyebefore it's supposed to be like a natural colorwith like natural highlights going through
before we begin make sure to subscribeto my channel so you never miss another new upload is so to make this coffeehair dye you're going to need to brew two cups ofcoffee if you don't have a coffee machine at home you can simply go to like yourlocal starbucks and just get two cups of coffee which is like a regular size cupand make sure to not put anything in it just plain black coffeeso i brewed up four cups of coffee two cups as going on my head and the othertwo is going in my mouth yeah that's good coffeeso because this is a liquid i would suggest using this kind of applicatorbottle that way it's easier to apply it
to your hairso they sell these at sally's i'm probably for like a dollarit just looks like this then you're just going to pour two cups of coffee intothis bottle oh and make sure you let the coffee cooldown for a little bit before you put it on your headso if coffee can stain your hair then it could probably also stain your shirtso make sure you're wearing a shirt that you don't mind getting stained or youcan simply just put a towel around yourselfso i just brewed the coffee and it's super hot and i'm super impatient so ijust put the coffee in the freezer
t's probably gonna take like 10 minutesto like actually cooled down enough to go on top of my hairso if your impatient like me then just throw the coffee in the fridge or thefreezer and you let it sit in there just to cool down and while you wait just drinkyour coffee ok so here's what it looks like in theapplicator bottle i really doubt i'm going to need thismuch coffee to soak my hair if you have a lot of hair you mightneed to use more than two cups of coffee so once it's on and covered you justgoing to leave it on for 30 minutes and then just wash it offyou can probably just do this over the
sink or tub because this is super messy anddripping everywhereso if you have a shower cap i would highly recommend wearing it becausecoffee is dripping everywhere so 30 minutes and we're going to see itthis beauty hack works or not this is the nextday i was in a little bit of a hurry i had like a little carnival thing to goto at my brothers school so i left the coffee in for 30 minutes and my hair wasstill a little bit damp so i just i put a hat on and i let the coffee just setin my hair and the smell of coffee started to fade after a little whilei didn't really feel like it left any
residue again it's just like coffeegrains and water so i actually got a couple of compliments on my hair colori was like yeah i got coffee in my hair and they're like whatand i was like yeah just like smell my hair i found this smell to be quite pleasantactually i'm not sure why they don't have anylike more coffee smelling products out there so my hair is a little bit darkerfeel like it's more of a richer kind of like caramel colori didn't feel like it left like a huge differencebut i am really happy with the results so a couple of tips if you're going totry this at home
i would make sure that you shampoo yourhair before you apply the coffee and then rinse it out with apple cidervinegar that way you're not stripping the haircolor out like right before right before it really sets and i will leave it infor at least an hour or even longer if you can so i used to work in ahair salon and people would come in with a ton of reasons why they didn't want tocolor their hair number one they were pregnant and theydidn't want to smell like the harsh chemicals that were in a traditionalhair dye number 2 but they were allergic to the chemicals that were in the haircolor number three
they just didn't like putting chemicals ontheir hair and skin and number four they just didn't want to damage their hairwhen you use the coffee and it doesn't damage you hair itactually stimulates hair growth i felt like my hair was a little bitmore shiny than it was before so i'm going to so i'm going toexperiment with different types of i know that there is like darker roaststhat leave like that's like more pigmentation i'm going to try maybe a organicexpresso i know those are a lot darker than theone that i used i just use like the traditional coffeethat i got from like walmart after you
brew the coffeeyou can take some of just the coffee grounds and put it right into the coffeethat's already brewed and that would make it even more pigmented so i'm goingto post the before and after pictures on
