Sure! I just brewed triple strength black coffee (the darker the
roast, the darker the result) and poured it through hair after
conditioner-washing. I just wrung it out, and left the coffee in my
hair to dry. Use and old towel, it will stain!

I just used regular coffee (would like to try the darker roasts) and
ended up with richer, darker hair with some red. It was a darker
reddish brown, very nice. My hair is medium brown, I can never tell
if it's ash or warm because it has both colors! But I look better
with the warmer brown.

Black tea also gives the same effect, pop about 5 teabags into 3
cups boiling water, cover it and let it steep until cool, then use
the same way as a final rinse.

I also have other color rinses, all homemade, for other colors!
