can you lighten your hair using lemon juice ?

Answer 1

It works pretty good if you are out in the sun and you are blonde. I would use a deep conditioner afterwards b/c it does dry your hair out.

Answer 2

depends on your hair. Be careful. If you have blonde hair put lemon juice in your hair an sit in the sun nature highlights. If your hair is brown it will get orange highlights. NOT PRETTY

Answer 3

Sort of, it brings out the natural higlights in your hair. I have dark brown hair and it works pretty well on me, normally i get shimmery blonde highlights with a few auburn tones even! The trick is soaking your hair in it, wrap it in plastic wrap (mainly to keep it wet and out of your eyes, and sit out in the sun for at least an hour. After that be sure to use a deep conditioner because it will dry out your hair a little.

Dont forget the sunscreen!

Answer 4

Yes, put some on your hair where you want it lightened and go outside in the sun for a couple of hours.

If you have light hair to begin with, then it can lighten it with the help of the sun.
