Answer 1

You can't go blonde with lemon. It does lighten the hair a little bit, but to go from even light brown hair to blonde would be near impossible. You have to apply it every day and it's a slow process. You'd be better in buying one of those "sun-in" blonding sprays to speed up the process, or even getting some high-lights in your hair.

Answer 2

Don't dry your hair. It's fat, not moist you need to get out of it. Just wash it bit more often. there is a great shmpoo that provides both moisture and fatfree hair. It's called d'Oliva and can be bought at some chemist's I guess. As for natural ways to get your hair lighter - try camomile. Like camomile tea bath for your hair or products containing it. It's commonly known that camomile lighten hair and also make it very soft. Good luck :)

Answer 3

Lemon is only a supplement for people who are already blondes. If you really want blonde hair, you're going to have to use hair dye.
