Hey, can i dye my grey hairs with this ?
Will it cover my greys ? How long it will last ?
I hope you will continue to make more videos.
Hoping to make more soon. Fingers crossed!
I have a question! Were the walnuts themselves altered by freezing the entire thing, husk, shell and walnut meat? This is fascinating and I want to dye a cardigan I have a darker brown, and I just discovered this as a delightful method after discovering walnuts where I live but I don't want to lose the nut itself in the process.
They were not affected to my knowledge! After removing the husks, I left the remaining shells to "cure" and was able to harvest the walnut meat. I also leave the remaining intact shells (with the walnuts) out for the squirrels to harvest. :)
I'm so excited about your dye project! Do let me know how it turns out! I have learned that the longer you allow the hulls to sit (ferment) in water, the darker the resulting dyes.
Thank you so much for your reply and I will be sure to let you know how it goes when I get to it!
That's really good to know, since I'd like it to be a nice dark version of the amber brown in your video. I'm looking forward to the experiment!

Just curious, because of the strong smell of the husk, is it best to use a pot that is not used for anything else?
Hi there! Yes, you definitely want to use pots that will no longer be used for food.
Thanks
