go get highlights. it increases the sexy factor by at least 2 fold. the women really love it. i usually hit mine in the summer. it looks good in contrast with a tan. it just says "im sexy". Also. ask the stylest to give you a "marbled" look. there are definate do's and donts good buddy of getting highlights. just tell her you want the streaks a little lighter than your hair, but not BLOND blond. Go easy the first time, then slowly increase. They darken back week to week. So after 2 weeks you may need another visit. Tell her you dont wanna look like an idiot.

then look for some type of spray in lightener. on the uk we have something called sun in. you spray it on and sit in the sun, or use a hair dryer ( which isnt as effective)

go to the hardware store and get yellow paint, mix it w/ some bleach and hairspray. Sit in the tanning bed with it on your hair for about 12 minutes, then go home and wash it off. It works great!!

salon is best option to be honest.

Best advise. I hear over the counter store products are really rough on your hair so i would stay away from them.

Hair colour can nautrally change over time - about every 7 yrs your hair goes thru somewhat of a change i have heard.

also the sun will nautrally liten your hair.

what is your natural hair color? If it is light, then squeeze some lemons in it, and sit out in the sun, you will notice it get lighter. IMO highlights are so 10 yrs ago..

just check out sun in, they are probably 2 types ( different strengths ) decide how drastic you want the change and buy the appropriate ones. its like the lemon thing posted above but stronger..

Sun in can lighten it. Just be carefull, and monitor it.

Otherwise I'd get it professionally coloured, or give up on the idea of having lighter hair.

Depending on how mild, one day could be enough.
