Try shampoos that have henna in them (you can find them at a beauty supply store). Henna brings out the natural highlights in your hair, so your hair will be lighter but look natural.

Well it might work, it turns brown hair to blonde. In the summer spray a mix of lemon juice and water in your hair and go out in the sun keep repeating this until it lightens.

lemon juice lightens blond hair (put some on and go in the sun..)~ but i don't know if it will work for black hair..
chamomile, a handful of dried chamomile flowers to a pint of boiling water, and let steep for twenty minutes. Strain, cool and apply to just-shampooed hair. Let sit for thirty minutes, and then rinse. hope it works for you! I found that in an aritcle online
I think rinsing your hair with water containing a few drops of gentian violet (which you can get in any pharmacy) can do the trick. They rinse white horses with it to make them really white. Just need to be careful with it.. you don't want to end up to light..
good luck

you may try using fresh lemons, step outside on a sunny day and squeeze the lemons all over your hair. Then sit in the sun for a while, soon you will have amazing highlights! If you have blond hair you will have darker highlights. dark hair lightens up a little!

this past summer, i put lemon juice in my hair and stayed out in the sun for about 2 hours. It works great! If you're a brunette, like me, you might get light brown or caramel coloured streaks!

Only with color dye- and I strongly recommend visiting a salon for it, as they will need to bleach your hair.

in the summer, you can sit in the sun with lemomn juice in your hair. but i heard my mom used alchohol (beer) once. i reccomend the first.
