If you have are tired of using chemical based colours on your hair and are dying to try something natural, it’s time to dump them in the bin and head to the kitchen.

You will be surprised to know the beauty benefits of tea, specially black tea in darkening grey hair. Here’s a look at five black tea concoctions that can promise you dark black hair!
Black Tea
Black tea is full of tannic acid which can darken your hair over time. Brew a few cups of very strong black tea (using 6 tablespoons/ 6 teabags), cool it and pour it through your hair. Let it soak for up to 30 minutes before rinsing out with warm water.
Coffee + Tea = Black hair
It’s a known fact that brewed ground coffee beans or instant coffee granules can temporarily stain your hair to dark brown and you can mix coffee with tea for long lasting results. All you need to do is boil three black tea bags into three cups of water. Now, add three tablespoons of instant coffee to the mixture. Boil the mixture for 5 minutes. Once the mixture has cooled down, take a brush or the hair colour applicator and apply the concoction onto your hair. Let the liquid sit for an hour and rinse it off with regular water.
