It's a stripper, and will give you highlights when you lay in the sun. But it's an acid, and very hard on your hair, so use sparingly.

It is way to strong to put on your hair. If you want highlights L'oreal has a good product, it is a spray which lightens up a tone or two three depending how much you use it the sell it in US and in EU costs about 8€
Lemon is not good for your hair nor your scalp. Ever seen shampoo with lemon? If you want a natural product that is good for your hair than you can try egg whites, but I never tried it, my grand parents did and do some times and they have a bunch of hair still...

Lemon juice is supposed to make the hair more shiny. I really think that's the only benefit. I don't know about using it everyday. I think it manly just gives your hair a more healthy glow.

lemon juice is successful in highlighting hair
y? bcoz..
lemon= acid
Acid + oxygen + UV = bleaching.
It happens in the sun and air naturally, but slowly.
The acid in lemon juice helps it happen faster.
The chemistry is called acid-catalyzed oxidation.
It happens to a lot of carbon-based substances, hair included.
Its not damaging though, but what color is your hair? If your hair is dark it WILL NOT give you sunny blond highlights; instead your hair will turn very, very orangy. I did it when I was in like 6th grade and was very disappointed with the results.

Lemon juice would lighten your hair over a period of time but since lemon is acidic it would also weaken your hair causing breakage.

Hi i use lemon juice once for about a week and it ruined my hair as its pure acid, it left my hair brittle and frizzy and nothing could fix it also my hair went ginger not blonde. So i would say less healthy.The only way lemon is good for your hair is in small quantities like in shampoo and conditioner. try lemon and cammomile.

Lemon juice will make light colored hair more shiny , Vinegar does the same for dark hair.

the citric acid in lemon juice will lighten your hair, like sun-in. it will also weaken your hair, like bleach. the frizzy blond hair look just isn't pretty.

It will make your hair dry and if you use it everyday, your hair may end up real frizzy. Other than that, it will make your hair lighter in color. Don't think it strengthens the hair though...I won't reccomend it.
