it does not work if you have brown hair, and you put lemon juice and water in a spray bottle and then when your hair is wet you spry it in and then sit in the sun and there is stuff you can buy(it is meant to be used at the beach)

it lightens your hair up. it comes out over time. It isn't like it's permanent. But it'll be there for a while. I take a lemon and run streaks down my hair. but maybe that's just me.

Hey there. I was just reading the other answers. Hmm...i never knew they worked. But think about this. Lemon juice is acidic. It might damage your hair or might harm your scalp. I dunno. It's like the pepsi thing.

Yea this works! In the summer time when you want to give yourself highlights. And no..its not an actual lemon. In any grocery store you can find this lemon juice stuff. I actually did this once and the lemon juice came in a little green containor. Anyway..its the sun that makes your hair lighter (some chemical reaction with the lemon juice...idk) so where ever you put the lemon juice..your hair will get lighter! and yes..in time the streakes will wear out. Hope I helped!! <3 Candace

Well, you can go to the store and buy a bottle of lemon juice, I am not sure what kind. From what I remember, you get your hair wet, and then sprinkle it on your hair and leave it in, and then lay out in the sun for at least 20 minutes, and then take a shower. I tried it once, but there were flys swarming my head because of the lemon juice scent and I got pissed and went inside, but my friend tried it and its a well-known old fashioned way to lighten your hair. Im not entirely sure if it works on dark hair, but give it a try anyways.

It doesnt exactly dye your hair. It just makes it lighter and it kinda highlights your hair. Just squeeze it over your head or whereever you want it.

you can dye your hair with lemon juice it is more like highlighting though. it works very well on brown hair. i did it to my hair one summer and i got a lot of compliments.

you can use lemon juice it a squeeze bottle. the best way to do it is to take strands of hair and cover them in lemon juice. then you let it dry. wash your hair after you are sure its dry.

it does work if you have dark hair you just hve to put more on it. it eventually fades out after a while or it goes away when you grow and cut your hair.

Teza answered Thursday June 30 2005, 11:43 am:
No! Its acually not lemon. Everyone is saying it is but its not. Its lime. You use it with vinager and you put it through your hair and you go lay out in the sun for like 2 hours. It does work a bit but if you have really hark hair it wont work so good but it depens. It might turn a bit orangish. It does come out after a while tho. &hearts;// ex_oh

IceAngel13 answered Thursday June 30 2005, 10:24 am:
I would't suggest it, my cousin tried iyt and it turned her hair a really ugly orange color and it's perminant for a couple of months, until ityy wears off. Not only that but it made my cousin's hair break and madew it really dry. And she had really dark brown hair, but it doesnb't matter what color your hair is, it turs out the same. I definetly wouldn't suggest this method. Hope I helped.

Yes, you CAN dye youR haiR with lemon juice. The woRd on the stReet is that it's best to mix it with PeRoxide oR VinegaR. I've neveR done it, so I couldn't PERSONALLY Recommend this method, but I've heaRd fRom souRces that it looks fantastic, and I've heaRd fRom otheR souRces who feel like it was a complete TRICK! But the best way to do it would be squeezing the lemon juice on a COMB, and Running it thRough youR haiR, that way it's nice and even. You WILL see a diffeRence with dark haiR, yes. And can you get it out???? Not Really, because you aRe taking away youR haiR's natuRally coloR and oils.. peRmantently. FiguRe it to be two shades lighteR. AfteR you comb the lemon in, you have to sit in the sun foR an houR oR two. Repeat this daily foR two weeks, and you should see a diffeRence.

Hope this helps!!! Goodluck out theRe, TigeR!! :D
