How To Lighten Your Hair Naturally
Have you ever wondered how to lighten your hair color naturally? This is possible. But we must clarify one aspect: if, for example, your hair is brown, it will not turn silver blond. You will simply get a slightly lighter shade and brighter hair.
The most important thing is to be consistent in applying the treatments and to use natural ingredients that do not damage the texture of the hair. Giving up chemicals will make your hair look healthier, more beautiful and more radiant.
How to lighten your hair color with rhubarb
Rhubarb or revent is a common plant in countries such as the United States or the United Kingdom and, despite the ambiguity of its classification, is now considered a “fruit”, although until a few years ago botanists disagreed.
Rhubarb is a kind of red and green celery. In addition to giving a special taste to culinary preparations, it is also beneficial for the hair, giving it shine and adding more brightness to strands in the case of light or dark blond hair.
It’s worth a try. Here’s how to do it:
ingredients
- 5 tablespoons finely chopped rhubarb (50 g)
- 1/2 l of water
Method of preparation
- First you have to boil the rhubarb in water. Let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly and rinse your wet hair with warm liquid. Cover your hair with a shower cap and leave the remedy on for 15 minutes. Rinse and wash your hair again with a natural moisturizing shampoo.
- Repeat the treatment twice a week and you will start to notice the results.
