Nowadays, the problem of graying of hair at a young age is increasing rapidly. Many people lose the color of their hair at the age of 25 or 30. Often, people consider it only a result of increasing age or excessive use of equipment like hair dryers and straighteners, but the real reason can also be a lack of nutrition, stress, and wrong hair care habits. In such a situation, the question arises – is there any safe and homely way to make hair black and strong again? The answer is – yes, and for this, a combination of alum and coconut oil is very effective.

Alum – Natural Protector of Hair
Alum is known for its antibacterial, antifungal, and deep cleaning properties. It makes the hair roots healthy by removing excess oil, dirt, and dandruff from the scalp. Regular use also reduces the problem of hair fall. But the special thing is that, when alum is applied mixed with the right oil, it can help in gradually blackening even white hair.
Coconut Oil – A Treasure of Nourishment and Strength
The fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals present in coconut oil deeply nourish the hair. It not only makes the hair soft and shiny, but also helps in maintaining its natural colour. The combination of alum and coconut oil increases blood circulation in the scalp and encourages the production of melanin (which gives colour to the hair).
Method of Preparation of the Recipe
- Take a small piece of alum and grind it into a fine powder.
- Heat 2–3 teaspoons of coconut oil in a pan.
- Add alum powder to the lukewarm oil and mix well.
- After the mixture cools down, apply it to the hair roots with the help of fingers while gently massaging.
- Wash the hair with a mild shampoo after 30–40 minutes.
Method of Use and Precautions
- Follow this recipe 2–3 times a week.
- If you have wounds, cuts, or allergies on your scalp, do not use it.
- Always apply a freshly prepared mixture; do not store old oil.

Other benefits of alum and coconut oil
- Reduces dandruff and keeps the scalp clean.
- Reduces hair fall problem.
- Protects the scalp from fungal and bacterial infections.
- Makes hair soft and shiny naturally.
If you want to avoid expensive and chemical-rich products to get rid of white hair, then this home remedy of alum and coconut oil can be a better option for you. It will not only help in blackening the hair, but will also make them strong and healthy from the roots.
