Today we tell you all about natural hair bleaching .
Yes, unsightly black hair can become bothersome...
Especially if they are black and clearly visible on the face.
Personally, I decided to use a natural discoloration and I am delighted.
The chemical cocktails on my face... No thanks!
Fortunately, my grandmother gave me tried and true recipes for natural hair bleaching.
Here are 6 effective grandmother recipes to bleach your hair naturally . Watch:
To make your homemade bleaching cream, take a look in the kitchen cupboard.
You definitely have all the natural ingredients needed to bleach those unwanted hairs.
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 bowl
- moisturizing cream
1. Mix all the ingredients well in the bowl to make a thick paste.
2. Cleanse your skin well.
3. Apply your cream to the areas to be treated (eyebrows, upper lip, etc.).
4. Leave on for 15 min.
5. Rinse thoroughly.
6. Apply a little moisturizer to the treated areas.
7. Repeat every day until you get the expected result.
In general, it takes a week of treatment, or even a little less, to have a good result.
You can replace the moisturizer with a moisturizing vegetable oil:jojoba oil, coconut oil, sweet almond oil, argan oil or olive oil.
You can also use pure lemon juice.
In this case, just squeeze some lemon juice and apply it with a cotton ball on the hairs.
Leave on for 20 minutes and rinse. Repeat several days in a row.
Carefully avoid putting lemon in the mucous membranes.
In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with clear water.
The tomato is another natural alternative, very practical in summer!
Cut a slice and rub it on the areas to lighten.
Leave on for 5 minutes and rinse.
Repeat several days in a row to see the hairs lighten. That's it!
Finally, hydrogen peroxide is probably the fastest and most effective method.
It is not without reason that it is found in bleaching creams (with ammonia).
But it is also the most aggressive for the skin.
You have to be careful when using it, because after several uses it can also discolor the skin.
Especially dark or mixed skin.
For hair discoloration, hydrogen peroxide is used in a 20 to 30 vol formula.
To bleach your hair with hydrogen peroxide, soak a cotton ball in it and apply it to the hair.
Leave on for 20 minutes and rinse well. The result is very fast.
This trick should not be used on sensitive areas.
It is therefore to be avoided to bleach pubic hair or bikini line.
In addition, this method really whitens the hair.
It is therefore not recommended for dark or mixed skin. The contrast is too strong.
Finally, some people have reported that bleaching the hair with hydrogen peroxide has an unexpected side effect.
Hair bleached with hydrogen peroxide may fluoresce under the effect of black lamps.
Always good to know if you're going clubbing and want to shine on the dance floor... Or not!

These organic homemade recipes have no major side effects on health.
But even if there is no health hazard, you still need to take some precautions.
- First of all, these recipes are acidic. Check that you are not reacting to the acidity of these natural products. To do this, test the recipe on a small piece of skin.
If your skin is sensitive and reacts quickly, use the first recipe with lemon and honey instead, which will soften the skin.
- Hydrogen peroxide dries out the skin and can irritate it. Do a test before you start bleaching hair.
- Next, the lemon is photosensitive. Do not expose yourself to the sun, after having made your bleaching with lemon. You risk having a reaction and seeing spots appear on your skin.
- Some of these recipes may slightly lighten the skin. Consider it if you have dark skin. This is one of the main drawbacks. But be aware that this phenomenon only occurs after several applications.
- Same note to preserve your beautiful even tan!
- That being said, the natural discoloration of the hair will actually turn it blond. So on matte or mixed skin, the contrast may be too great.
- Do not apply these recipes to bleach hair on pimples, wounds, scratches or moles. Otherwise it will sting very hard!
- For the same reasons, also be careful to avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes in general.
- You should never ingest hydrogen peroxide. If ingested, hydrogen peroxide is toxic.
