I have blond hair but they hair on my arms is dark and I don't like it. Will lemon juice work to make it lighter? Also I cannot go out in the sun because it is winter and if it will work will you please give me directions? Thanks ahead of time!

it does work with lemon juice but you need to be out in the sun to make it really effective. i used it on my hair on my head. to just rub lemon juice on it and then go out. it is not drastic right away but over time it will make the hair lighter.

No, lemon juice will not work without the sun. Since it is hair on your arms, I suggest using hydrogen peroxide. On head hair, it dries and weakens as well as bleaches, but on your arm hair, all you care about is the color. All you should do is pour some on the hair every day until you see results. Chamomile tea works, but it takes sooooooooo long!! Good luck.

Sweetie, I have the same issue and everyone that stated to bleach it is right. It really won't make your arm hair turn ugly or to light. It will bring it down a few shades. I did it for my wedding and loved it. Go out and get the Sally H. bleaching and a big brush to brush the bleach mixture on your arms and let it sit for 7mins and then wash off and you will have what you seek. Good luck! :)

No you can't lighten it with lemon juice but you can bleach it. Contact an esthetician.

I wouldn't recommend chemicals.....the best way to lighten body hair is to visit the tanner once or twice a week for 20 min's at a time.....that's what I do and it works gr8

shave it. it will start to grow back but its really not as weird as you think. just shave it again once it grows back. a lot of guys dont think its weird either, i thought my bf would've been freaked out but he knows that girls do that sometimes. hair is gross. no hair is better
