Walnuts darken hair. To make a natural walnut dye, you can add walnuts to a cup of water and let them sit for four days, when the color of the dye is your desired shade. For a quick dye, black walnuts are your best bet. Place a whole black walnut into boiling water and boil for about 15 to 25 minutes. For lighter hair dyes, use lemons or limes. Also, there is always the right shade of Kool-Aid as a hair dye option. Konstantin Tavrov/PhotoSpin
