What are some alternative natural ways to make your brown hair blonder if you don't have access to the sun?

Answer 1

I have the same question. I live in California, but not in a very sunny area. Strange, I know. So much for being the "sunny state". I am naturally blonde but I dye my hair ALOT. I have been just about every color you can imagine. I dyed my hair blonde on top, and nearly black underneath. I liked it for about a month, then deicded I hated it. So i dyed the top blode part a dark brown. The first few days it matched the almost-black underneath, but every shampoo job I did, it got lighter. I ended up with light brown and black hair. It was hideous. Since, I have re-dyed the light brown, and I am getting better at shampooing less. The problem is, I miss my blonde hair more then anything. And I desperatly want it back. My family is telling me to just grow it all out, but that would mean I would have half blonde, half light brown/blakc hair. Ew!

Anyway, I have done some research, and lemon juice apperantly will lighten the hair a little but if you have antural gold in your hair. It will give you a red tint if you have natural red in your hair. It works better in the sunlight, which is unavailable to you and me both. Chamomile tea bags soaked in boiling water for a long time, then applied to the hair works too, I guess.

Don't ever, ever, EVER dye you hair if you haven't already. YOU WILL REGRET IT!
