Get your hair naturally black without using chemicals

 Get that inky black hair color you've always wanted with these simple tips!

A great way to get that inky black hair color you’ve always wanted is to switch up your hair care routine. Black hair color fades easily, so using gentle but effective products will help keep your color looking fresh and vibrant longer. These five tips are designed to help you achieve healthy and gorgeous black hair!

Step 1: Use a sea salt spray

Sea salt spray is an easy and inexpensive way to get the look of beachy waves. To use, simply spray a light mist over your head after towel drying and brush through for added texture.

Step 2: Wash your hair with activated charcoal shampoo

In order to achieve the perfect black hair, we recommend using activated charcoal shampoo. Activated charcoal is a powerful ingredient that can help remove the build-up from your scalp and will also leave your locks feeling fuller and healthier. 

The best part about this product is that it won't strip away any of your natural oils, so there's no need to worry about stripping out any of the color in your strands.

Step 3: Add lemon juice

With your hair wrapped up, apply the mixture to the roots and leave it on for at least 15 minutes before rinsing. You may need to reapply if your hair is extremely dark. The longer the lemon juice stays on your scalp, the darker your hair will be. So, if you want to go a little bit lighter, keep the mixture on for about 10-15 minutes before rinsing. If you don't have time for this step (or want just a small pop of color), leave it in for a few seconds and rinse off quickly.

Step 4: Mix avocado oil, coconut oil, and mustard powder

Mix the avocado oil, coconut oil, and mustard powder together and slather it on your scalp. Leave the mixture on for at least 30 minutes before rinsing it off with warm water. Then, continue with a normal shampoo and conditioner routine to make sure you're getting all of the ingredients out of your hair. It's recommended to repeat this process once a week for a month or two to see results.

Step 5: Use henna on the ends

The final step to maintaining your new hair color is using henna. Henna is a natural way to maintain your dyed locks without harsh chemicals. You can purchase it at any health food store, or even make it yourself! It's as easy as boiling the henna leaves and then letting them cool down before applying them to the ends of your hair.

Steps 6 - 10

6. Take a shower and shampoo your hair to remove any product buildup or build-up from daily use. 7. Rinse your hair thoroughly and towel dry it. 8. Apply the mixture to your scalp, roots, and ends of your hair, making sure that it is completely saturated and not just on the surface of the strands. 9. Comb through your hair with a wide-tooth comb to distribute the henna evenly across all of your strands. 10. Wrap yourself in plastic wrap and cover your head with an old t-shirt, hoodie, or anything else that will protect your clothes and skin from staining. 11. Sleep for four hours or more so that the henna has time to penetrate deeply into every strand before washing out
