In the US, Canada, and some other countries, dialing *67 (or equivalently 1167) suppresses sending your caller ID for that call only. Conversely, if your line suppresses caller ID by default, *82 or 1182 will send caller ID for that call only.

Either code should be dialed first, before any other "star codes" or the number itself. For example, to suppress both caller ID and call waiting, dial *67 *70, not *70 *67.

If you were to dial star-67 before you dial star-69 on your home phone will it hide your phone number?

Yes, if you dial *67 (or equivalently 1167) to block your outgoing Caller ID, and then dial *69 (or equivalently 1169) to call back the last incoming number, it should show up on the other person's phone as "blocked" or "number withheld." In order for *67 to work, it should be dialed first, before any other "star codes." For example, to block outgoing Caller ID and also cancel call waiting, you should dial *67 *70, not *70 *67. The order shouldn't matter, but it sometimes does. In the US and Canada, you can dial 11xx instead of *xx, if you are using a rotary or pulse-dial phone.
