How to Gradually Lighten Hair Color
- 1). Pour hydrogen peroxide in a dark spray bottle without diluting it. Fill it three-quarters of the way full.
- 2). Wrap a white towel around your shoulders, and put the headband on your head so it stretches under the back of your hair and across your ears and forehead but away from your hairline. Spray the peroxide on your hair so that it is just damp but not wet. Comb it through the hair.
- 3). Sit outside in the sun for 30 minutes to one hour to lighten it. If it is too cold or overcast, you can skip this step.
- 4). Wash and condition your hair to remove the peroxide until the next lightening session.
