Making potato peel water

Then use a brush to evenly apply the potato peel water to your hair, trying to apply as much as possible.

Finally, we wipe the applied area clean, and then compare it with before, you will find that the hair color has really become darker!

Tyrosine will gradually turn into another substance, and finally these substances will aggregate to become melanin. But this melanin is water-soluble and will fall off once washed.
