Yeah, you can use lemon juice for a few different things. It works good on your nails too! But anyway, putting lemon juice in you hair will make it lighter if you go out in the sun. Especially if you're a Blonde. I have used John Frieda- Beach Blonde Lemon Lights. It's like a highlighter. =]

Hey, yes that is very true. Well at least it worked for me, so I am pretty sure it will work for you but if it doesnt you can use sun-in or just die it!

Yea it is true, lemon juice does work for lightening your hair. But the results of doing it do vary with different people. That's the natural way to do it but they're are also some products you can buy that aren't that expensive to lighten your hair. Try 'A Touch Of Sun'. I used it and it worked very well.
Hope I was able to help.

Yes, lemon juice does indeed make your hair lighter. Your hair just needs to be wet while you are outside with lemon juice in your hair. You can also try Sun In. It's pretty much the same thing, except you have to pay for it but it works.

I've never tried the lemon thing, but I've heard a lot about it, and thats what people say--if you put it in and then go into the sun, it makes it lighter. But I have tried the product "Sun-in". It works good and lightens your hair. You don't even need to wait until its sunny. You can do it at 10 at night! All you need is a blow dryer. You take your damp hair and spray Sun-in in and blowdry it. You might have to do it one day (half a bottle), and then use the rest of the bottle the next day. Then theres some knock-off products of Sun-in, like "A touch of Sun", etc. ♥ Please rate.

Lemon juice does work but I wouldn't expect dramatic results in a short time. It tends to be a gradual lightening. Also if you're going to use lemon juice, fresh lemon juice (just squeezed) will work much better.

Chamomile (Look at your local health food store or the natural health section of your local store) steeped in hot water then poured on your hair and left in to soak for 15-20 minutes will also help lighten your hair.

A product such as Sun-In will also help to lighten your hair. It costs about $5 at CVS.

A shampoo such as John Frieda Sheer Blonde has ingredients that help bring out the highlights. I'm a faithful user and I can tell you that you will get results. It costs a little higher than regular shampoos but I love the results. I pay around $5 for it at WalMart although it does run a little higher at some other stores.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

yes that is true. the sun works with the acids in the lemon juice to lighten your hair. if for some reason it doesnt work, try sun-in. its not a dye but you put it in your hair then go in the sun n it gets lighter
