Acidic rinses remove product build up and make healthy hair more shiny (vinegar is the most common natural acidic rinse). It basically works the same as a clarifying shampoo does -- removes gunk that makes it look dull.





Anything that naturally lightens hair will also increase how obvious your red highlights are. Sun is the most obvious natural source, but you can also use a honey + cinnamon hair masque to create a slow-acting gentle lightening. Honey and cinnamon create natural peroxide when mixed with water, so you could gently lighten the hair this way. It's much much more gentle than bottled peroxide and smells amazing. Honey is also a natural humectant (sucks up water) so it moisturizes hair wonderfully too.





1/2 cup RAW/uncooked honey (pasteurized or cooked honey will not work)


1/2 cup filtered or distilled water


1 teaspoon ground cinnamon





Apply to hair and wrap your hair up in a swim cap, a shower cap, saran wrap, or a plastic grocery bag, then wrap your head up in a towel over top. Let sit for 2-10 hours depending on how busy you are. I've only left mine on for 3 hours at a time, and had to do it twice to see a difference, but it did work. You wont be a peroxide blond by any stretch, but it does work and is damage-free.
Yes there is. Use hibiscus tea for red hair or to bring out red highlights.

You can also use 1 tablespoon of beet juice (about 1 tbs, be careful it stains) and 1/4 cup of fresh catnip.





Boil one cup of water for tea. Let the tea bag in for 15 minutes. Add the rest of the stuff. Let it cool. Rinse your hair. Be careful not to stain theclothes or the whole house.
