well when u lighten ur hair naturally with brown pigment it will turn reddish not blonde but reddish .. you can use lemon juice and go out in sun or use hair dryer for chemcial reaction to lighten it.. but on ur hair to actaully lighten it a hair specialist would strip it then put a vcolor on it to lighten it as it will be brassy or red if u do this on ur own.if u want shine shine shine use rosemary leaves boiled in water strained as like that thru a coffee pot .. natural. enhances the shine..

Lemon Juice or Peroxide. Comb it through for highlights, soak it for all over. Go out in the sun for awhile and it will lighten. If it's not light enough do it again another day! Beer is a good conditioner for shine and softness.

Use henna... it won't lighten but it will brighten and add shine and enhance highlights. It is natural and you can add other elements to it to change the tones it gives your hair. It's all natural! It is good for your hair. Try www.hennapage.com and click on Henna for Hair you can download an eBook all about using henna.

It's practically impossible to lighten dark hair naturally.

If you were already blonde, using some lemon juice, blow dryer or sun rays would make you lighter, but that isn,t strong enough to change the color.

Only bleach or peroxide can truly lighten dark hair, and no honey doesn't work.

Sorry

try lemon juice, it usually works on lighter hair but it might work for you, give it a try. Jsut put it in your hair then go lay out in the sun for an hour or 2.
