Sun is the only thing that will naturally lighten hair. Do NOT use lemon or sun in or anything like that. The reason these products lighten hair is the acidity. Acidity will eat away at your hair and cause irreversable damage. If you want to go a few shades lighter, ask your stylist to color your hair. It will be an easy process to go a few shades lighter, and shouldnt be too expensive!

MORE FUN FOR BLONDS

Chamomile is probably the most popular herbal hair colorant among blonds. A weekly rinse with this herb tea will also remedy the brown streaking that results from overexposure to the sun, and brighten "dishwater blond" hair.

To prepare a chamomile rinse, steep half a cup of the flowers in a quart of boiling water for half an hour. Then strain the mixture, and let it cool while you shampoo. Now, pour the brew through your towel-dried hair at least 15 times (catching it in a basin each time, in order to use it again). Wring the excess moisture out and leave the solution in your hair for a quarter of an hour before rinsing it out with clear water.

Don't limit your herbal experiments to chamomile, however. Just about any yellow-blossomed flower or herb can be used on blond hair . . . including calendula (it's also called pot marigold), mullein blooms and leaves, yellow broom flowers, saffron, turmeric, and quassia chips.

Lemon is also a time-honored hair lightener. The juice of two of the citrus fruits, strained into a quart of water, makes an excellent rinse that can be used in the same way as the chamomile preparation. Try to dry your hair in the sun after using a lemon rinse, in order to get the most from the treatment's lightening effect.

Another native dye favored by blonds is prepared from rhubarb root ... and it'll add attractive honey gold tones to light brown hair, as well. To put those glints in your locks, pour three cups of hot water over four tablespoons of chopped rhubarb root, and simmer the concoction for 20 minutes. Strain it . . . pour it through your freshly shampooed hair 15 or more times ... rinse in clear water ... and again, weather permitting, dry it in the sun to strengthen the effect of the dyeing agent.

A BONUS FOR BRUNETS

For over 5,000 years, Egyptians have used a dark powder made from the henna shrub to give their hair and beards an auburn tint. Nowadays, you can buy henna powder from many herb supply houses, and some health food stores and co-ops. It's known as a safe, healthful dye, and閳ユ敃ince it coats the cuticle layer of each strand閳ユ攰t'll actually make your hair feel thicker. However, be warned that henna tends to produce an almost brassy orange-red shade when used alone . . . so it's best to mix it with a "lighter" herb like chamomile. (Since it is so strong, henna shouldn't be used at all by persons with white, gray, or very light blond hair.)

Always try a timed test swatch first, too . . . otherwise, you might end up with an unexpectedly bizarre orange head! If you'd like to mix up my favorite recipe (I've found that it puts pretty reddish gold highlights in my dark mane), measure one part of powdered chamomile and two parts of powdered henna into a nonmetal bowl . . . then add enough boiling water to make a thick paste. Stir in a tablespoon of vinegar閳ユ敋hich will help release the plants' colors閳ユ攣nd let the blend cool for a few minutes.

When the paste is lukewarm, put on a pair of rubber gloves (henna can stain your palms and fingernails, too) and massage it into your clean, wet hair. Comb it through with a wide-toothed comb to insure even distribution of the dye. Next, pile up your hair, fit a plastic bag over it, and wrap a heavy towel around your head to hold in the heat.

You'll need to leave the dye and towel turban in place for anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours: The darker your natural hair is, the longer you'll have to wait for the henna-chamomile to take effect. When the time is up, remove the towel and bag and rinse your hair until the water comes clean, then allow the newly colored tresses to air-dry . . . as usual, in the sunshine if possible. (Any stains that the dye might leave on your hands or around your hairline can be removed with a little elbow grease and lemon juice.)

Should you prefer a simpler (and slower-acting) procedure, you can make a weaker solution of the herbs and use it as you would any of the previous color rinses. Just mix together one tablespoon each of henna, chamomile, and vinegar. .. then steep them in a quart of boiling water for 15 minutes. Naturally, you should cool and strain the liquid before using it.

My friend would put lemon juice on her hair and go out in the sun, and it worked for her. You can just go out into the sun too without the lemon juice, which also lightens you hair, just not as quickly I'm sure.

What natural thing lightens dark hair?

Sun, Hydrogen Peroxide and Citric Acid (lemon juice), Chlorine

Just a note...if you have medium or dark hair, these will all remove the color in your hair slowly leaving you quite orange...you are better off getting your hair colored properly by a professional. They also damage a lot if they are used repeatedly or for long periods...hair color uses a peroxide developer, but it's one application and the damage is much less.
