How to Naturally Lighten Your Hair

Sometimes it doesn't take that extra money and time at the hair dresser to get your hair coloured.

Based on all my blogs, I love natural and money saving tips to create the same affect that you may get at a hair dresser or spa etc.

You can get either highlights or a full head of lightened hair.  All you need is lemon and a comb.

For highlights:

Take lemon juice and use a comb to dip in the lemon juice.  It is easier if you put the juice in a cup and dip in the comb every so often.  Dip the comb and keep the lines as neat as possible. Keep your hair out and head into the sun for 20 minutes. Shampoo your hair right after.  You will be left with natural highlights! You will be left with a slightly lighter tone in your hair colour without touching your wallet.

All over colour:

For all over colour, simply pour the lemon juice right over your hair and sit outside in the sun for 20 minutes.  Keep a mirror with you to see the progress, if you want to stay out longer, you can do so but don't stay too long as you will dry out the hair too much.

Doesn't matter which of the above you decide to do, make sure you use a moisturizing shampoo afterwards.  Yes, it is natural, but it does slightly dry out your hair.  To make you feel better, real hair colour is much worse and dries out your hair even more than using lemon and sun.

Hope this secret to lightening your hair colour helps your wallet! Till' next time!  Let me know how it goes!
