INSTRUCTIONS NOT CLEAR!!

I wasn't sure if you were meant to wash hair first, or pour onto dry hair sorry Kate I did not find your instructions clear. What I did which may help any out there is look for other sites and the consensus was to wash hair first and condition. I thought that seemed a bit silly as I would want to condition after treatment.
Here is what I did and it worked. I have naturally blonde hair which always darkens over winter and then goes very blonde in the sun but with our poor summer last year it did not get its usual dose of sun.
I wet my hair then poured mixture through. I didn't add the extra 2 cups of water I made two cups of tea in a cup not mug,1 tablespoon lemon and simmered in boling water for about 15 mins. Let cool over night.
I left the misture in fro about 20 mins then dries my hair not to bone dry but held the dryer a long way away and sort of wind blowed my hair! Left another 20 mins then I washed my hair using chamomile and lemon balm shampoo ( bought from Boots) and conditioned with thier intensive camomlie and lemon conditioning balm. Then blow dried hair properly. It looked great shiny and had picked all the natural highlights beautifully. I plan to do this twice a week until the sun can take over.I am 52 and hair suffering the hormonal effects of menopause but it left my hair looking lovely so definitely recommend particularly if like me you are blonde already.
I hope this clarifies the procedure I used.
1.wet hair
2.towel dry
3.pour in solution, make sure all covered
4.leave in and then rough dry your hair
5. shampoo and condition
I have also read that you can add this solution to natural yoghurt and make like a paste to put on your hair. You lleave on for 50 mins wearing a shower cap or wrapped in clingfilm and this conditions hair at the same time. maybe better for people with chemically coloured hair. Hope I have helped .

Before the treatment my hair was a very light blond with gray at the nape of my neck and in the middle of the top of my head. After the treatment, the gray appears much lighter and has blended into the rest of my hair much better. My light blond hair picked up some wonderful warm tones, it's soft, bouncy, and definitely looks more youthful.
Tips and more Info: I made the treatment with fresh, organic herbs and a lime obtained at a local Grower's Market. I put filtered water in a sauce pan and heated it until the first little bubbles appeared at the edge of the pan. I turned off the heat, plunged in the fresh herbs and the lime which I cut in half and squeezed into the water, and covered. While I waited for the mixture to be ready, I took another lime and squeezed it into the roots of my gray hairs. I knew the herbal mixture was ready when the herbs and lime had sunk to the bottom of the pan. By this time, it was also cool enough to pour on my head. I covered my shoulders with a towel, put a large bowl in the sink and bent over it as I poured the tea over my hair, chamomille flowers, parsley,(Parsley has been used for centuries to protect the skin and hair from the effects of the sun.) and all. They mostly stayed in the bottom of the pan while the rest of the tea flooded my hair and was gathered in the bowl to repeat the pouring 3 more times. No sun today, and I didn't want to use the heat from a hair dryer on my hair. I wrung my hair out and clipped it back while I made a phone call to a friend. After maybe 30 minutes, I shampooed with a natural non-lauryl sulfate shampoo and followed with a conditioner. My hair still felt dry so I put a heaping tablespoon of real maynnaoise through it and let it rest for about 15 minutes. I shampooed, used more conditioner and rinsed. I let my hair dry naturally with fabulous results!

This does work on dark brown hair. Ive been using it the past couple of days and am finally seeing nice results. Dark brunettes may have to repeat this many times but eventually it will work. Its bringing out my natural reddish/blonde highlights and i love it
