ExploreTo lighten your hair, you need to go to a salon and invest in a chemical procedure, or do the technique yourself at home if you're skilled. However, some natural ingredients, such as honey, help to make the strands more illuminated. Of course, this recipe doesn't work on all hair types and it won't even have a professional result, but it's worth trying the homemade mixture to get naturally lighter locks. Check out!
Honey lightens and moisturizes the hair
Honey has moisturizing and nourishing properties that are very good for the hair. It is rich in vitamin A, D and C, in addition to antioxidants, which give more strength, shine and softness to the locks. That's why the natural product is one of the most used in homemade hydration recipes.
However, just like chamomile and milk, honey also helps to lighten hair, because it contains a little carbon peroxide, a substance that acts in lightening. It is worth mentioning, of course, that the use needs to be constant so that the result becomes even more evident.

Lightening with honey is indicated for blond or streaked hair.
Another point that is important to note is that honey does not lighten overnight, nor does it work the same way on different hair types. In darker strands, lightening is very smooth and gradual, showing some reflections along the length.
As for blonde hair, the result is more noticeable and, in fact, the hair becomes much lighter with use. Those with light locks can also take advantage of honey's potential to accentuate reflections and brighten the look even more.
