how to lighten hair naturally - #17637

Saanvi

I am really struggling with my hair color right now. I wanted to lighten it a bit, but I don’t want to use any chemical treatments because my scalp can get super sensitive. I've been trying to figure out how to lighten hair naturally for a while now. A friend told me about using honey and cinnamon as a way to lighten hair naturally, but I'm not sure how effective that is or if it might cause any irritation. A while back, I tried lemon juice, thinking it would work, and I could’ve sworn I saw a slight change at first, but honestly, it just made my hair super dry. I also heard that getting some sun can help, but with winter coming, that's not really an option. Right now, I'm thinking about trying chamomile tea too, because I read somewhere that it can help lighten hair naturally, but can that really match up to a salon treatment? I'm worried I might mess it up and end up with weird patches or something. Anyone has experience with how to lighten hair naturally? What worked for you? Like, I really need suggestions that are safe and won’t leave my hair a frizzy mess. Thanks!
