Yes. Whenever I go out into the sun, my hair changes colour. It's naturally light brown/dark blonde. But in summertime, it is a LOT lighter and more yellowish. I do not use any chemicals or dyes like hydrogen peroxide etc etc.
Please explain to me why my hair is crazy.

The color of your hair is due to melanin, a chemical our bodies produce naturally. The sun breaks down that chemical, which leaves the hair blond (or close to it).

This may not be an answer, but my daughter's hair did the same thing until her hair stylist told us to put some leave-in conditioner into her hair daily over the summer. it helps not only for going in the pool, but the hot-day frizzies, too. The type of conditioner isn't a big deal, just that it's a leave-in version.

if you swim in chloronated water this willadd to the problem, before you swim wash your hair x1 rinse thoroughly add in a good conditioner and leave to dry - when you have finished swimming wash your hair and treat as you usually do. Wear a hat in the sun

If you go swimming a lot, the chlorine in the water has a bleaching effect to you hair causing it to lighten, some times drastically.

Because your hair's eyes get blind in the effect of sunshine.

your hair is trying to tell you that it wants to be shaved off.
