well i was wondering if there was any way to make your hair lighter without dying/highlighting it and swimming a lot
 and i know there's this spray-in stuff called Sun In or something which is supposed to make your hair lighter and i was wondering if that works if anyone has used it before so yea..

for all over lighter hair, soak your hair in lemon juice and spend a lot of time outside. For streaks, well, rub it on your hair, and spend a lot of time outside. The acid and the heat lightens you hair color. Or just buy some sunin. But if you want it to get noticeably lighter, do it a few times, but try to give your hair a rest every other day. you dont want to damage it.

Well putting lemon juice in your hair works but it damages your scalp, the acid in the lemons cause the scalp to become irritated and may cause 1st degree burns [since your scalp is very sensitive] so before pouring lemon juice in your hair, try to dilute it and mix it with a small drop of conditioner.

yep, lemon juice and sun=highlights.
Also, if you squeeze lemon juice in your hair while you shower, it'll give you highlights too. I know someone who did that, and it worked for her. |

SUN IN works on only light colored hair ..light brown and up. ..cause i used it back when i was in elemenatary school (on my natural black hair) ..and my friends cLAIMED that it got a little lighter , but i begged to differ.
..soooo YES it does work. .unless your hair is very dark or dyed ....and LEMON [juice] works just as same as sun-in. |

Staying out in the sun a lot lightens your hair. I used to swim a lot, so instead of the natural black my hair is, it turned a lighter brown.
