Lightening my blonde hair with vinegar?

I have light blonde hair, but it's starting to get darker. Now it's a dull blonde. My aunt said she thought she heard somewhere you can lighten blonde hair with vinegar without turning it orange. Does anyone know how to do it?

never heard of vinegar but i do know that if you put hydrogen peroxide in your hair after you wash then let dry that will lighten it. i sometimes do it to bring out my natural highlights if i'm needing a change=D OH %26amp;ITS CHEAP TOO:)

Hey actually vinegar won't work but lemon juice will! Do a mixture that is 3 parts lemon juice and 1 part water and spray it all over your hair, it will lighten it! For even more of an effect go out into the sun...however, don't use sun-in it's terrible for your hair!



Good Luck!



I do not recommend using Peroxide, if not done by a professional it can dry your hair so badly that it will literally break off!

After shampooing your hair, rinse well,



than use vinegar mixed with a bit of warm water



and rinse your hair again. Towel dry and do your normal



stuff - blow dry, curling, etc.



Vinegar will give your hair, blond or any other colour a nice



shine, since the vinegar will remove all the build-up residues from your hair, like gels, mousse, hairspray etc.



Now, if you want do lighten your hair, but don't want to use



hair colouring products, simply use 1% peroxide.



You can buy that in any drugstore, price around $1.



If your hair is long, I suggest putting the peroxide in a plastic



spraybottle and spray it all over your WET/DAMP hair.



Make sure you devide the hair, so you get most of it covered



with the peroxide. Wait a few (2-3) minutes and rinse well.



Use a bit of conditioner afterwards and your hair will be



lighter and shineier.



Depends on how light you want your hair do be, you can



do that every time you wash your hair, or whenever you want.



But use the vinegar rinse every time you shampoo.



See what people, your friends, aunt have to say to your



shiny golden hair!



EDIT: don't leave anything in your hair, lemon, peroxide.



both are acidic and will damage your hair over time if left in your hair and not rinsed out. Always use a little conditioner,



not to much and rinse that out too before you style your hair.

  1. hey do not listen to any of these people i use to hVE VERY BLONDE HAIR and it got darker too so i used a mix of vinegar and water and sat in thesun for about 15-20 minutes and it turned noticably blonde just from one time, my mom actually thought i lightened my hair with bleach. TRUST ME! VINEGAR DOES WORK!and it doesnt damage your hair its actually healthier than shampoo.

  2. I also just sat in the sun for about 20 minutes with a mixture of white vinegar and lemon juice in my hair and it is noticeably lighter. I began the process by shampooing as normal, then added a vinegar rinse that I made my boiling 2 cups of water and 2 tbsp. of white vinegar together. After the shower I then put the lemon/vinegar mix in. The mix is equal parts vinegar and lemon. I used just two tbsp of each, as I just want a sunkissed look. I definitely shampooed after my 20 minutes and it looks fabulous. Vinegar definitely works!
