When you rub lemon in your hair and then go outside on a sunny day your hair will lighten. The wetter you get it, and the longer you stay outside the lighter it will get.

If you rub lemon in your hair and stay inside, you just wanted to freshen your hair I guess.

If you have medium brown hair, I suggest you do not rub lemon in it. Your hair may turn orange. Always be careful when bleaching/ tinting your hair if you aren't a professional. Mistakes aren't always easy or inexpensive to cover.

It lightens and brightens your hair. I use it and I have healthier softer hair. Dont just rub the lemon on, squeeze the juice into a bottle and spritz it on your hair.

It will lightly bleach your hair. It also makes it smell kinda nice for the day, but it can be sticky. Don't expect a drastic change in color, but if you go out in the sun with lemon in your hair, it will certainly lighten it a bit, especially if you do it every day for a while.

Attempting to "naturally" lighten their hair. Yes it will work, eventually, but it tends to dry hair and make it more brittle.

Lightening ones hair color should be done cautiously, and preferably by a professional, to minimize hair damage.

.Lemon will add suttle highlights to your hair when you layout in the sun. Blonde highlights for med. browns and lighter. Can add a redish tone for darker hair though.

It conditions them and makes them shine. Lemons contain acid and it stabilizes the pH balance of your hair. I have never heard of running it down the hair though. Usually, the lemon juice is dissolved in 1 litre of water, and you rinse your hair with it after the shampoo. Vinegar can also be substituted for the lemon juice. I think, running the lemon without deluting it with water first is harsh for your hair, because the acid concentration is stronger this way.
