is it true that if you put lemon juice in your hair and sit in the sun you will get blond highlights?

Question

i heard that some where
i just want to know if that is true

Answer 1

Yes it is true, for some people(usually not lightening past the brassy orangy/yellow stage). Others see no result in color change at all, only to see that there hair becomes very damaged.

Sun-in and lemon juice are two of the worst things you can put in your hair and then sit in the sun. It does nothing but bake in all the really bad acids and chemicals in each.

It doesn't have enough lightening power to lighten (beyond orange) but, it sure can cause a lot of damage.

Hope this helps!!

Answer 2

It is definitely true. It's very subtle though, which is a good thing. If you're going to squeeze a lemon directly onto your hair, try to disperse it well with a comb. Otherwise, put the juice into a small water spritzer (just the juice, no water) and spray it on. This should help you get it throughout your hair.

Answer 3

I tried it and it worked slightly for me. I used lemon juice and sun-in spray and my hair turned out this yucky orange color. Don't do it. It's worth the money to get them done professionally.

Answer 4

I tried that once and it fried my hair and barely changed the color. Get professional highlights. They'll look better and be healthier.

Answer 5

Well it lightens your hair. You won't get highlights per se but you will see a different in the overall color.

Answer 7
