    You do NOT need to use raw honey, because the pasteurisation process does not damage the naturally occurring hydrogen peroxide, which is the lightening component in honey. However, because the peroxide is not stabilised like it is in conventional hair dyes, pH levels of water can diminish the lightening properties. It is best to use distilled water, and avoid adding any ingredients that are particularly acidic in pH, such as lemon juice. Hope that helps people

      what's wrong with lemon juice for lightening hair?

    • @EmilyMckeon
      @EmilyMckeon 9 років тому +174

      Nothing if you are using it alone, although it is potentially more damaging/drying to hair! But adding lemon juice with honey lessens the lightening effect, because it destabilises the naturally occurring peroxide in honey. If you are using honey to lighten, it is best to use it alone with distilled water to keep the peroxide intact and the lightening effect maximised. Using lemon and honey together does not increase your lightening effect, as some might think.

    I gotta say, I am SUPER IMPRESSED with this method! I just did it for the first time, and I can already tell that my hair is at least 2-3 shades lighter, even while wet! ^_^ My hair is normally a medium to light brown (depending on who you ask), and now I'd say it's a light brown/dark blond.
    I used a slightly different recipe:
    A ratio of (honey) 1:4 (water)
    1 tablespoon of cardamom (I read somewhere that this does the same thing as cinnamon, but doesn't cause the scalp issues that cinnamon can; like burning or itching)
    1 tablespoon of olive oil
    1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar (which helps to condition the hair)
    lavender oil
    tea tree oil
    I let the mixture rest for 15 mins (so the peroxide could develop), and the put it on my head for 2 hours. I wrapped my hair in plastic wrap and then put on a shower cap, and for extra heat also a beanie (and yes I looked absolutely ridiculous! =3).
    I didn't even use high quality ingredients like raw honey or distilled water... so if anyone is worried about that, you can still get good results regardless! XD

    Honey has cleansing properties as well so it doubles as a cleanser (if you don't wear makeup) so you can use it everyday! I sometimes will use it everyday. It definitely won't clog your pores! I would do it at least once or twice a week though. I'm so glad you like it!!

    It's does work, but you need to pay attention to:
    1) using distillated water, because the minerals from the tap water can change the pH
    2) let it sit for one hour
    3) doesn't matter the time (like, sleeping with this in your hair) but hoe much your hair is wet with water and honey
    4) if you choose not to use cinnamon it's OK, or you can use cardamon
    5) it's OK not use the olive oil too, you can try only water + honey (
    6) also, if you don't like olive oil, try coconut oil

    I've done this (It works on thick, curly hair as well!) but I always mixed the cinnamon into either a conditioner or DIY Hair Mask (Avocado, Banana) and received great results over time. I did it in-frequently but you can notice the subtle change from my natural black hair while the ends and upwards/midlength are a lighter color that gives beautiful red-natural highlights under anylights and especially the sun!
    I'd recommend using Paprika for a red highlight, Cinnamon for a light honey- colored highlight and Cocoa for a dark tint!

      Omg I needa know all the details
      how often did you do the mask?
      Did you make measurements if so what are they?
      And what do mean by brown hair is it light brown? dark brown? medium brown? ash brown? chocolate brown?
      Sorry for all the questions I have super dark brown hair and I want it lighter so bad

      @@bored6453 haha sure! I done it once a week sometimes twice
      So I have really long thick hair so I take 2 tbsp of honey ,mix it with a leveled tbsp of cinnamon then a tbsp of olive oil and I don’t measure the water i just add it till its a mask like consistency, neither too watery neither too thick, mix leave it for about an hour and apply. I normally apply it in the morning on a day when i have lots of chores and work to get done at home and then take a shower towards the end of the day so like 5+ hrs for sure but that’s your choice.
      id say its the closest to medium-choc brown hair. But the thing is, my hair still mainly looks dark inside but when the light hits it a certain way wether its the sun or unnatural lighting, its this cinnamony chocolate brown and in the sun its literally honeyyy gold like i said so my hair can be so many different shades which i love 🤣
      Thatss ok if you have any other questions id love to answer them!
      if your hair is dark brown, mine was literally black its definitely gonna work 😍😍 ps its quite messy tho so i always do it in the toilet so its easier to clear the mess anyways do lmk when you do it ! Xx

    If you have dark brown hair, lemon probably will do nothing for you. You might need to use honey to lighten your hair. Natural honey contains a small amount of peroxide which lightens your hair. Cleopatra used honey to lighten her hair and skin. Just because it's honey, doesn't mean it won't cause some damage so it's best to condition your hair well afterwards. The ingredients you'll need are: room temperature distilled water, a dark-colored honey, virgin coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil.

    First time using it: I forgot to let it sit for an hour oops, but I let the mixture sit in my hair for a few hours (around 4 hours). After that I washed my hair and I noticed little to no change. I naturally have some lighter parts, but I noticed nearly nothing. Maybe those parts where lighter. But I'm not sad! I must start somewhere :)
    Second time using it: This time I actually let the mixture sit for over an hour and I let it stay on my hair for about 2 hours. After I noticed my hair was actually a tiny tiny bit lighter! Im actually excited to continue using this method. Yayy
    Third time using it: I let the mixture sit for a bit over an hour and I let it stay in my hair for about 2 hours. Honestly i didn't notice any change. My hair was still a tiny tiny bit lighter but not noticeable lighter. I'm still excited to continue though!
    Fourth time using it: I let the mixture sit for an hour and I let it stay in my hair for 2 hours. I think it's important to mention I don't use water, I'm only doing the mixture with honey, olive oil and cinnamon. Anyway my hair is actually looking a tiny tiny bight lighter, almost nothing. I read in a comment that you should let the mixture sit in a container that has a lid, so I'm doing that next time.
    Fifth time using it: I let the mixture sit for an hour and a half in a container with a lid and after I let it stay in my hair for about 2 hours. After that I think i actually noticed my hair was lighter!
    Sixth time using it: my hair is definitely lighter :) just a tiny tiny bit but I’m confident it’s working. I left the mixture in a container with a lid for an hour and a half and after that I left it in my hair for two hours. Next time I’ll leave the mixture in the container longer and also longer in my hair.

    Honey releases the peroxide slowly during the dissolving process, the raw honey will dissolve much easier than honey thats already been processed. And I think, though i could be wrong, processed honey doesn't have as high peroxide content. Also hydrogen peroxide is light sensitive, i find it works best if I use a container that isn't clear and cover the top with foil :D
