Is there anything this plant is unable to cure? Sleeping problems, poor eyesight - I bet
it can probably provide you with unlimited riches as well...

~*back to serious mode*~

I would assume the stronger brown color from the mix you used is because the acid in
the tea/coffee released some iron from the pot/bowl when left over night. Maybe this
is equivalent to using a mordant when dyeing cloth/yarn - perhaps someone with
better knowledge of these processes could chime in...

You probably won't move away from henna, but if you should do it I'd be very careful
with what I put on it afterwards as there could be unpredictable reactions with the
henna/iron already on the hair.
