How much hair do you have?

I can remember spending that much getting my "extra long"- their
word for my mid-back length hair- colored at a hairdressing school a
long time ago(never again).

rhubarb how to from http://www.rhubarbinfo.com/rhubarb-uses.html

12.2 - Hair Color
This is a fairly strong dye that can create a more golden hair color
for persons whose hair is blond or light brown. Simmer 3 tbsp. of
rhubarb root in 2 cups of water for 15 minutes, set aside overnight,
and strain. Test on a few strands to determine the effect, then pour
through the hair for a rinse. 26, 39

haven't tried it myself, but it looks all right.

I did do something similar with chamomile on my sister's blond hair-
only a slight tint was evident.
