Dark to Black Hair
1 1/4 C. each of bruised walnut husks and coarsely chopped leaves.
Soak them both in a gallon of spring water for 24 hrs.
Pour the water into a large saucepan and boil until the liquid is reduced by half the original amount. When it has cooled, strain and add 1 1/8 tbsp. of gin, bottle and store in a cupboard. A small amount would then be put on the hair daily with a sponge, wherever there is gray until a darker color only drawback to this is, what ever the dye touches, including the scalp, tuns somewhat dark as well. |
