FAQs:
Q: Will this dye work on all hair types? A: Yes, coffee dye works on most hair types, but it tends to be more noticeable on lighter hair. Darker hair will likely see a subtler change, but it will still add richness and shine.
Q: How long will the coffee dye last? A: Since this is a temporary dye, it will last for about 2-3 washes before fading. You can reapply it as often as you like to maintain the color.
Q: Can this dye be used on chemically treated hair? A: Yes, coffee-based dye is gentle enough for chemically treated hair. Just ensure your hair is not too dry before applying the mixture, as it could further dry out your strands.
Q: Will coffee dye stain my skin or clothing? A: While coffee can stain, it is generally easy to remove from your skin with soap and water. To avoid staining your clothes, wear old clothing or use a towel around your shoulders.
