Make some coffee and pour it with the grains onto your hair. Takes a while to rinse so be prepared. Other than that, you can buy a hair gloss. I like Proclaim- cheap and good.

Brighten ypur dull hair
Following the steps discussed above will help protect the cuticle and brighten dull hair.
Watch the Pool Water
Pool water contains chemicals that can dry, damage, and discolor hair. To minimize damage from chlorine and other chemicals, always wet the hair with tap water before entering the pool. This will help prevent your hair from absorbing water from the pool. Haircuts for Men recommends taking a spary bottle filled with tap water and a tablespoon of conditioner to the pool. Before getting in the pool (and frequently durning swimming), wet your hair completely with your water/conditioner mixture. This will help prevent damage, dryness, and discoloration caused by pool water. If you notice discoloration, use of a Clarifying Shampoo (discussed under "Styling Advice") can help.
Caring for Straight Hair
Wash every other day with a gentle shampoo and follow with a light conditioner. If you're maintaining a longer style, have it trimmed ever six weeks to remove split ends. Pomade will help keep hair relaxed and natural while adding shine and separation.
Caring for Thinning Hair
Choose water-based products that won't leave a heavy residue and weigh hair down and provide volume and lift. A thickening shampoo and conditioner will help. Keep the cut short and choppy and it will appear fuller. Longer hair will make hair appear thin and stringy.
Caring for Wavy Hair
To minimize excessive volume (pouffiness), use a hydrating product and dense conditioner to add weight. A medium-lenght cut will work well for a versatile look. For styling, an oil based was or pomade (such as American Crew's Grooming Cream) will add shine and weight.
Caring for Curly Hair
Curly hair's structure can stop natural oils from reaching the hair's ends leaving you with a frizzy look. Use a strong moisturizer to keep hair soft. Keeping hair cut short will help maintain a neat look. Longer styles should be layered to reduce volume. Wash hair no more often than every other day and follow with a good conditioner. A good leave-in conditioner will help add extra moisture. Style hair with an anti-frizz serum such as John Frieda's Frizz-Ease or American Crew's Shine Tonic.

Theres a couple of ways to do that 1)you could get highlights, or 2) if you don't wanna change your haircolor at all just make it brighter you could go to your hairstylist and have them put a gloss on your hair *no not lip gloss, a hair gloss is just a brightener, hehehe*. I know this because I am a liscenced HairDresser =)

To brighten your color you can try a glaze on your hair. It makes it shiny and inhances your color. Its available in every hair color at salons for $25 to $100 dollars. But if you wanna do it at home for less you can try john frieda luminous color glaze for $10 at a local drugstore.

Go for a weekend at the beach and if you don't see improvements that weekend then try some highlights.
Make sure to wear sunscreen!
Remember, don't wash your hair too often. It can strip away the natural oils that make it look less dull. Also try shampoo/conditioner that keeps the natural oils.

You could dye your hair one shade down from yours and it will brighten it. Also try a few highlights. If you want something simple they make shampoos that will make your hair healthy so it looks bighter.
