Lemon juice on hair????

[kezia_88]

I hear that if u put lemon juice in ur hair it makes it blonder is this true? Because I didnt have any lemons so I used it from a bottle like the stuff u put on pancakes if u know what I mean? Is this safe and will it make my hair blonder if I comb it through and lay out in the sun???

I did the exact same thing today, including the part about not having any lemons and using the stuff in the lemon shaped bottle haha! I have mousey brown hair which naturally gets a bit lighter in the sun but i wanted to make it more noticable like highlights, the lemon juice didn't appear to work at all- so if any1s got any tips on how to make it work better id be really grateful and im sure kezia would be. Also i don't want to use sun-in because it made my sisters hair(which is similar)go ginger!

lemon juice definitely works but make sure you check your hair after applying. I once spent an afternoon on a beach with half a dozen pips stuck to my head.

my brother did it and it does work eventually, but will make your hair very dry. i'm sure there must be a better way...

Go to Lush where they have lemon and chamomile based hair masks, shampoos and other hair care designed specifically for that purpose without drying or damaging your hair.

I have blonde hair and I use lemon juice, and it makes my natural hghlights appear lighter. You have to apply small amounts of lemon juice (whhc i squezze from a lemon) to the parts of your hair which you wish to appear lighter. You then leave it in for a couple of hours, and during that time you either blow dry your hair or lay out in the sun. Make sure you wash it out straight after a couple of hours, otherwise it ruins you hair. x
