There are many ways that someone with light hair can keep it without dying it. Here are 10 natural and non-damaging ways you can easily and cheaply lighten your hair:
1. Fill a spray bottle with lemon juice and water (or just lemon juice, as much as possible) and spray it all over your hair and sit out in the sun. The suns rays will dry the lemon juice and your hair will literally soak up the sun and then your hair will appear lighter and/or have highlights. This only works with lighter shades of hair.
2. Honey. honey is also a natural element that can lighten hair. It contains hydrogen peroxide which helps lighten hair. Take a tablespoon or two of raw honey and add water until it's a slightly thick but still liquid-y substance. Apply it to your hair and let it sit for around 30-60 minutes in the sun if possible.
3. Plain hydrogen peroxide is also a great inexpensive way to lighten hair. Hydrogen peroxide is like a light and less damaging and effective bleach. The amount of time you let the hydrogen peroxide soak, depends on how much percentage the hydrogen peroxide is.
4. Dampen your hair and add conditioner and brush your hair while the conditioner is in. Make a paste out of cinnamon and water and put it evenly in your hair and brush it with a hair brush. The conditioner will help the cinnamon stick. Put a plastic bag over your hair and keep it in over night while you sleep.
5. You can also use tea (preferably chamomile tea) to lighten your hair. First, boil the tea and let it cool. Once it has cooled, put it all over your hair until your whole head is damp. Rinse it out with water after 15 minutes. Do this process around three times before rinsing your hair with shampoo and conditioner.
6. If you apply baking soda and water a few times a week, it will not only lighten your hair over time, it will also strip your hair from harmful chemicals and chemically clean it. You have to go through this process at least twice a week for results to show.
7. Vitamin C is great for your hair. Take around 8-10 Vitamin C tablets and crush them up into a power or close to a powder. Mix them into your shampoo and use it in the shower. Shampoo and condition normally.
8. By mixing vinegar and water, it will lighten your hair gradually. The results are slow, but it's 100% natural and safe along with all these other tutorials. Keep mixture in for 15-20 minutes. Do this a few times a week.
9. Rinse your hair with salt and water and let soak for 15-20 minutes and then rinse clean. It has the same effects as if you swam in salt water like an ocean. This also has gradual results.
10. Stay in the sun!! (With sun screen on of course) Your hair will naturally lighten in the sun. You probably have noticed how your hair is lighter in the summer than it is in the winter.
Hope these ideas helped!
