Expert Answer

I would suggest using a purple shampoo to keep your blonde hair as vibrant as possible, but there's not much that you can do to stop that process, because that has something to do with genetics. Try putting some natural pieces of blonde balayage to keep it bright.

Question

Can I do blonde enhancement for brown hair?

Community Answer

Yes. While it may take a few years to fully see the effect, if you use chamomile (shampoo and tea) on your hair, you'll achieve natural golden highlights.

Question

When you spray it, will it only enhance a bit of your hair or the whole thing?

Community Answer

Tea coloring is targeted, so only the area you spray on will be colored.

Question

Will the black tea be permanent on a doll's hair?

Community Answer

If you wash the hair, over time the stain comes out. It could leave a permanent stain but the color will start to fade.

It will, but it will take more time than other types of hair colors for it to get lighter.

Question

Will the teas work on grey/silver hair, natural?

Community Answer

Tea color covers up a gray mane. If you prefer something gentler, you can darken hair naturally by making your own herbal tea dye. Dried herbs produce a tea that gives gray hair rich color and subtle highlights.

Question

What can I use to thicken the liquid to allow it to stay on hair?

Community Answer

I mix it in with my leave-in conditioner. You could also put it in a spray bottle; that way you won't have to thicken it.

Question

Does hair color using tea wash out?

Belle K.

Top Answerer

As the dye is a semi-permanent, no, not after one wash. It will take a few washings to get it out.
