How to Naturally Dye Your Gray Hair with Onion Peels—No Surprises, Just Beautiful Results

Ingredients

 

Peels from 6–8 red onions

2 to 3 tablespoons dried sage (promotes darker tones and scalp health)

1 tablespoon ground coffee (adds richness and supports growth)

500 ml to 1 liter of water, depending on how concentrated you want the mixture

Optional: a few sprigs of rosemary or lavender for added scent and growth stimulation

 

Preparation Instructions

 

Place the onion peels, sage, and coffee into a saucepan.

Pour in the water—start with 500 ml for a darker, more concentrated result.

Bring to a boil, then simmer gently for 20 to 30 minutes.

Add rosemary or lavender during the last 10 minutes if desired.

Allow the mixture to cool, then strain the liquid through a fine sieve.

Transfer it into a clean container for application.

 

 

Optional Add-Ins for Deeper Color

 

To create a stronger, darker version, add one black tea bag or a handful of walnut leaves during the boiling process. For even richer results, green walnut shells can also be included.
