Sexy Summer Hair - Lemon Juice Highlights!!

 
 
So you want to have some sexy highlights in your hair for the summer, but you don't want to do the chemical thing.  I can dig it.  There is a solution for you...Some of you may or may not know that lemon juice has been used for years to lighten hair.  Yes!  That tart elixir that can be found in the fruit bowl on your kitchen counter, can highlight your tresses with help of summer sun rays.  Here's what you do:


1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup moisturizing conditioner

Combine lemon juice and conditioner in a small bowl.  Whisk until nicely mixed.  Coat the areas of your hair that you want lightened with the mixture, and sit out in the sun for 1-2 hours.  Wash hair, and deep condition.  Lemon juice is extremely acidic, and very drying, so don't skip the conditioning step.  Repeat this process once a week until you begin to notice a difference.  You should notice a significant difference after 4 weeks.  Continue this regimen until you reach the desired color.

Enjoy that sexy summer hair!! - YB
