3. Hair coloring with onion peel
Let's say right away that the result will differ significantly - it depends on the structure, initial color and concentration. Blondes can get a golden hue, brown-haired women - red, brunettes - from dark red to red-brown. For a pale golden hue, it is enough to pour a glass of boiling water over just 1 handful of husks, leave for 20-30 minutes.
For lovers of bright and saturated colors: a larger amount of the original product is taken for the decoction. Don't forget to add some glycerin. Blondes will give the strands a red tint, brunettes will give a chic copper sheen.
If you continue to use paint, this method will not work for you - natural dyeing only affects the natural color. Try the best root strengthening recipe for chic and thick curls.
