The only way you will "naturally" lighten your hair is being out in the sun. However, your only other option to get immediate results is get some highlights done to your hair.

Then rinse it out of your hair, then with the cap still on apply the color on top of the bleached hair (it's okay to leave it wet). Leave on no more than 10 minutes and voila you have a beautiful sun kissed look to your hairstyle. This will look natural and going into summer it'll be easier to maintain and blend in with the summer highlights.
