also was told that black beans help in darkening of gray hair....... any1 has constantly tried it out b4...wonder does it really work??

Then better not eat green beans, or the hair will turn green..

wormy:

so red bean for \"ang-mo\" haircolor
and soy bean for \"Blonde\" :rotflmao:

haha.....it dun works this way lah......the color of beans determines the color of hair.....
liddat, i have been drinking red beans boiled with chicken feet soup since young......
i dun have red brown hair leh.....still black in color ..... :rotflmao:
