un jugo – juice
I’ve been thinking of putting lemon juice in my hair just to make it a bir brighter.
But apparently staright lemon juice can be really bad for hair.
Is there anything i can mix it with to lessen the strength? Like conditioner maybe?
Dilute 50/50 water and lemon juice then after you’ve let the sun activate it (about 2 hours) put in a deep conditioner.
I have dirty blonde hair and I want to lighten it before the summer. I know that lemon juice makes your hair lighter (my friend used it) but I don’t want my hair to get really dry or damaged. How can I prevent my hair from getting dry? And how do I apply the lemon juice? Do I have to dilute it?
what you do is use the juice from 1 whole lemon, and 1 cup of water.
you could put a little splash of hydrogen peroxide in there if you want to get faster results, but if you’re worried about it getting damaged i wouldn’t.
put the lemon and water into a spray bottle, like and empty windex bottle or something. just make sure u wash it good first.
spray evenly all over the outside layer of your hair and brush it through until it’s as wet as you want it to be.
go outside IN THE SUN (it doesn’t work w/ out sun.) until hair is about 80% dry. after you come inside you can blowdry it then shower, or just go straight to the shower.
be sure to use a deep conditioner in the shower, or just leave your regular conditioner on it for a long time.
if you usually style it: you should probably do this on a weekend, w/ out plans, so that when you get out of the shower you don’t have to do anything to it and let it dry on it’s own.
you also might have to do this about 3 times before you notice anything, but be sure to keep it at least 1 week apart so it doesn’t damage your hair. i noticed some difference the 1st time i even did it though. it really doesn’t dry it out as bad as people say if you do it right.
good luck with it!! hope i helped some.
