How can I bleach my hair with household products?

Question

Summers near and it's time to be blonde again!!

What can I use to bleach it without going out of my way or not even purchasing anything.

I heard peroxide works...That bubbly stuff the you put on cuts.

i put 2 teaspoons in my hair and mixed it in. It did nothing

my friend told me to poor a whole bottle into a bucket and pour my head in for 2 minutes and longer for whiteish blonde.

any ideas?

I have real dark brown hair with a little shine.

Answer 1

Do not put chlorine on your hair!!!!!!!Salon bleach is not the same as chlorine...Chlorine can blind you and it is caustic and can cause your hair to not grow back ever!!!!

Answer 2

There are NO household products to use to bleach your hair. If you want your hair bleached let a pro do it. You have to know what you're doing when bleaching your hair.

Answer 3

Hydrogen peroxide can bleach your hair but you can't control the color. If you comb it in and let it dry it will lighten your hair a little at a time. I have never heard of it to make hair white. It is not strong enough for that. Most of the time your hair will turn a reddish blonde. It will also affect the sun's lightening power.

Answer 4

There is no control with peroxide how your hair will look. If you have darker hair it will not take it all the way to blond.

Best to bite the bullet and buy a real hair product.

Answer 5

Don't be silly with that stuff it can really damage your hair and you don't wanna end up with no hair for summer!
If you really don't wanna pay for anything and you wanna highlight your hair use lemon juice, apply lemon juice to your hair when you go out and it will gradually lighten your hair. Will feel a bit hard but once you wash it it goes back to normal.
Does take a lil while though no fast shocks.

Answer 6

You definitly shouldn't be doing it at home.its way too risky. i knew a girl who bleached her hair at home, and her hair was down past the middle of her back, and it broke off to shorter than shoulder length. When you're lightening what you're actually doing is removing the pigment of your hair. so..either way, be really careful, even if you do a box dye, which i don't reccomend, be SOOO cautious. Good luck!

Answer 7

NO NO NO .........you will ruin your hair...........
if you want destroyed hair go this route........

come on
you are kidding right?
don't you care about your hair......
this is hard for me to read........

please be gentle......
go to a local hair school on their model night.........
You can always get your hair done by someone wanting to train..........
ALWAYS>
Every city has hair schools.

Call them and ask them when they have "model night"...it is usually free or $10. or something silly.........at least you have a teacher there watching over things.........
do not use peroxide on your hair unless you want it to sizzle off of your head.

Answer 8

peroxide alone may not bleach your hair, but peroxide exposed to light- like the sun, will lighten or at least give you reddish highlights.

Answer 9

Peroxide will make your hair color a orangish color. I would just go buy some hair dye, or you might end up frying your hair and ruining it.

Answer 10

Rub in lemon juice and go out into the sun, I don't know how good it will work depending on your hair color.
