[greendayninjalicker]

tf?!? u have a plug soccet in ur bathromm???!!!!

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@greendayninjalicker what? I'm not sure what you mean.

[greendayninjalicker]

@Rebeccal997beauty ur able to plug in something electrical into ur bathroom that cant be safe :L

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@greendayninjalicker that's what I thought you meant. But most people I know have plugs in their bathroom. Just don't get it wet, that's all! (:

[greendayninjalicker]

@Rebeccal997beauty lol i dont know anyone with a plug in their bathroom not sure i know an electrician who would do that either :LLL well i live in ireland so its probardly alot different here :P

[luvinthedream4eva]

hi! umm will it effect the bleaching process if i already took a bath before i bleached it???

[TheLgcooks]

how old were u when you made that???

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@TheLgcooks I was 14, and I'm 15 now. Not that much of a difference. (:

[W33DNation239]

I'm sorry but how do you get it out because I just put on and My Mom got mad at Me and I don't how to get it out!?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@W33DNation239 The actually lemon juice should just wash out. But if you mean the blonde from the lemon juice, i don't think there's anyway to get it out. I'm not sure what exactly you mean though.

[sweetiepie20319009]

ur very pretty



[jdog6754]

when i did this my hair got all stiff and sticky.... is it supposed to do that? and when u showed me what it should look like after i blow dried my hair i did not see a difference... im a brunette, am i supposed to see it?

[CedePristine]

Youre hair looks green.

[nikelover3584]

this is cool i have done this but it hasnt done anything to my hair i dont if its because im brown headed but can u tell me if i am doing something wrong?

[barbiegiggles123]

can u stop touching your hair

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@barbiegiggles123 sorry! Its a habit.

[AussieGurls]

If you keep touching your hair it'll just get greasy quicker.

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@AussieGurls Actually not my hair. My hair doesn't get greasy, because I have very dry skin and hair. I know it's annoying, and sorry I touch my hair so much. Its out of habit, just trying to get it out of my face. :)

[gravitycat98]

Me and my friend are gonna do this this summer. Except our idea was to put the lemon juice in like a spray bottle and just spray it on the top layer, dry, tie up that layer, repeat. And I was wondering, since lemons make hair yellow, do you think cherries would make hair reddish? Cuz I wanted red in my hair too, or black (with blackberries maybe). I'd just paint that on in streaks. What do you think?

[sabaah96]

@gravitycat98 on certain hair types lemon actually gives the hair a reddish tone, but i think that's on darker hair.

i don't think you should put berries in hair:S

Why don't you try red henna that's good, healthy and natural..

Or just hair dye? :)

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@gravitycat98 You can do a spray bottle! That can actually be better. If you put water in half of the spray bottle, then do about a 1/4 of lemon juice, then the rest 1/4 with leave in conditioner/anti frizz-cream/etc(something that could cancel out the dryness and stickiness of the lemon juice), you can put it in your hair everyday before you go outside to do something where you'll be in sunlight. :) And I'm not sure about the cherry thing, I'll look into it though!

[frydazechild]

someones a little OCD on touching there hair>.....

[armandmadewnus5]

does this lighten black hair ?? and I mean JET black !!! will it have any effect ?

[armandmadewnus5]

does this lighten black hair ?? and I mean JET black !!! will it have any effect ?

[MsCass32]

i love Ur hair!!!!

[MsCass32]

i love ur hair!!!!

[Rme213]

OmG.. Have a bobby pin in.. You do that too much!!

[EmoCrayon21]

Lol maybe you should know that using suave brand isn't really the best. It takes out the juice and most of the acids. A good brand of conditioner to use when doing this would be pantene or something, but a cheap version that is good on your hair would be TRESemme. It costs about the same as suave :P

[misscarlaitaliano]

u actually touched ur hair like 10000 times

[VelvetRose1234]

does lime juice work? cause that's what I just did....

[people1oh1yeah]

i think shes cute



[bigblackpimpin080]

@people1oh1yeah CHILD MOLESTER!@!#$

[TheKawaiiLena]

Does This Work On Black Hair I Doubt It Will But Will It Make Some Parts Of The Black,Dark Brown Hair?

[TheKawaiiLena]

Does This Work On Black Hair I Doubt It Will But Will It Make Some Parts Of The Black,Dark Brown Brown?

[AllThatGlitter224]

@TheKawaiiLena

It does i had black hair and it took me 3 times to get to a light ash brown

And all i did was the lemon juice concept and then i sat in the sun for about a half an hour

[billygirl70]

it would be better if u showed us a picture or something of the after shot of your hair cause we dont know if it worked or not?

[billygirl70]

it would be beer if you showed us wha your hair looked like after you did it cause now im heaps nervous and not sure so yer

[18Sia247]

stop playing with your hair and moving around!

[RosbifFrog]

Aww your cute :-)

[GKTify]

I have dark blonde-light brown hair and i'm just wondering because the suns gone down already, I want to try it now. Will it still work if I use a hairdryer and no sunscreen?

[ILUVPRINCE1]

umm everywhere else i looked up this thing it say that the suns uv rays r wat makes it blonder not heat i.e hairdryers shouldnt work lol :| and also sayin that oily hair is best for this becoz its harder for the sun to dry out ur hair. question did it actually work at all for u ?

[97Bluestars]

your hairs mousy

[carolineleahy11]

i have the same colour hair as you and when i was smaller i had blonder hair so it helped having the same hair as you

[carolineleahy11]

i have the same colour hair as you and when i was smaller i had blonder hair so it helped having the same hair as you =]

[pari317]

Can be a little loud? I coudnt understand what ure sayin.

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@pari317 I'm sorry! I was in the bathroom, and I didn't want to be too loud because bathrooms echo. I'll try to be louder for future videos. Thanks for letting me know! :)

[monseisawsome]

@Rebeccal997beauty  can you use pink lemonade instead of lemon juice

[iiEmoBaby]

OMG!! haha i was borrd witth blonnde hair tooh annd it turnedd darkk likee your (but a lil bit darker)...

[98u5]

did you say you have never used conditioner before

??????? =0

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@98u5 no. I always use conditioner. I have really really dry hair, and really dry skin. I use conditioner all the time, and I have to deep condition my hair at least once a week, sometimes more.

[iloveanimals2k11]

your hair is different lenths at the front

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@iloveanimals2k11 haha ik! It's really annoying. My hair dresser cuts my hair with a middle part, than moves it to the side part. So it's always different lengths. (:

[thestupidgurlz751]

ARE YOU JUST SHOWINGG OF YOUR HAIR !?

[babixlarra]

Your supposed to shower before and only use shampoo not conditoner, because it will lessen the effect, also your supposed to go out after applying lemon juice because the sun hitting the citric acid is what brings out the colour.

[xV4L3Rii3]

@babixlarra But if you don't wan your hair to dry, you can you conditionner riight?

[TheLadydee1]

i couldn't rlly hear u

[012JUICEY]

HAHA you were not blond but oke

[xzara4]

i have dak brown hair , i used this technique before , it worked a little bit, my hair got redder a bit redder only under sunlight !! :3 my sis asked wht did u done to ur hair ? i said nothing . i said god changed my natural hair color by wish !! :3 ( big liar) !!!

[veelovesstarfish]

It worked for me!!!! I sat out in the sun, though.

[priyakoko]

So it just stays for a long time like that right?? For how long

?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@priyakoko Sorry I never got back to you. I don't get notified about my comments and I always I approve my comments. So again, sorry. It pretty much stays until your hair grows out, but its definitely not as noticeable as dying it. Like, if you know someone with naturally dirty blonde hair and their hair gets blonder in the summer and it grows out and its a bit darker. It just looks like that. Hope that helped :)

[06andriannette]

Okay, I have like long light brown hair with red & blonde natural highlights. What do you recommend? (:

[mpegany]

im not trying to be mean, but omg you fixing your hair every few seconds, is really annoying and distracts the audience from what your talking about; please focus on not doing that so much;)

[sweetcatracha2009]

It did not work with mine I have JET BLACK hair and it did not work

[shanel588]

Can i use a straightener? (:

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@shanel588 NO. It'll fry your hair. Because the lemon juice is wet, you don't want to use your straightener on wet hair.

[justforfun474]

@Rebeccal997beauty can i use lemon juice from the store?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@justforfun474 Yes. Thats what I use. (:

[marrbarr3]

How do I know what color my hair will turn? I've never done this before. You you think that I can make a streak undeRr my hair in the back if I do this? This is the first time I'm dying or doing this to my hair, so any tips would be really helpful! & how many times should I do it to get it to a color if my hair is 1 color & so it doesn't really stick out cause of my dad..?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@marrbarr3 Yes you could try a little section. And I wouldn't do it a lot. It takes a while for it the achieve color. Because the lemon juice really dries out my hair, I only do it about every 3 to 4 months. It looks shiny, but it actually is really dry. Maybe do this on your hair once a month, being careful and putting the conditioner in it and stuff. Also, sitting in the sun gives you more blonder highlights. I hope that helped! You can message me if you need anymore help :)

[ilovethejokerr]

Omg so annoying watching you talk about nothing for like 20 minutes and making faces...you might have wanted to do some research on how it works before just guessing (wrongly), lemon lightens your hair because its acidic and stips your hair of its pigment, just like bleach - and seeing as it has a MUCH milder outcome, its obviously better for your hair than bleach.

[justmehere36]

@#@$%#%@! I just put lemon juice in my hair & I have red natural highlights):

[nasalem1]

@justmehere36 what happened?

[nasalem1]

@justmehere36 what color did it become?

[charityiloveyou12336]

does lime juice work? ;)

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@charityiloveyou12336 I really don't know. It does have the citric acid in it also, so maybe. I'll have to go google that sometime (;

[superweird30]

Dude lemon juice doesnt damage ure hair

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@superweird30 It does with mine. It dries it out really really badly. My hair will be really disgustingly dry after I do this to my hair.

[whatchulookingatshaw]

@Rebeccal997beauty Use a deep conditioner afterwards if tou experience dry hair after the treatment.

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@whatchulookingatshaw Thanks! But do you know a good drugstore (or target, because target does tend to have some more better quality stuff, even though its a bit more expensive) deep conditioner? Garnier frutice has on,e but it has mineral oil in it, which overtime is really bad for your hair. That would be amazing and helpful for me. :)

[whatchulookingatshaw]

@Rebeccal997beauty I've heard Biotera Reconstructioning conditioner works well. I personally never used it but many of my friends and fam use it.. Its available at Sally Beauty Supply and isn't really that expensive. I will try the product soon. You can review it online and think about what you wanna do. Hope this helps!

[xkillzbillzx]

omfg if i do this my hair will probably go orange xD not a good idea....imma do anyway because imma dye my hair purple soon

[rockydog18]

what if u have dark brown hair??? what color will it be?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@rockydog18 I really don't know. My hair looks really dark sometimes, I'm not even quite sure how to explain my hair color, its just the weirdest. But I would say, be light with it, and try it on a very small section (like less than an inch) first, and see how it turns out! :) But be careful if your hair has a bit of red in it.

[ashluvmckymous1010]

why does she keep putting her hands in her hair -_-

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@ashluvmckymous1010 I'm sorry. I know I do that a lot. My mom gets really annoyed with it, she's like "stop putting your hands in your hair you're going to make your hair greasy" But thats just what I do. Sorry if it bothers you.

[redspitster]

When your hair grows out does it get a stripe like it does when u color it?? Thanks!

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@redspitster Not really. It might look darker on bttom, then lighter towards the top, but there's no definite line, it just gradually fades out. It looks like your hair just got lighter in the summer and grew out.

[latengirl]

would this work if u have black hiar cuz i have black hiar and i just wanna do red or blond high lights wich my mom will get mad cuz im only 12 but id care but would it still work if u had black her plz messege me back pleas

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@latengirl It will probably turn your hair orange. You could use a lot less lemon juice and a lot of conditioner and water, and take a paint brush and do highlights on your head. Thats all that I would recommended doing. I would use barely any lemon juice.

[smartercat]

It took at least 5 minutes before you actually got to the part where you put the lemon juice in your hair. But are you sure orange juice works? I have only heard of lemon juice working. But anyways, I tried with lemon juice, and it didn't work. It should have, I was in the sun for more than an hour and i also used to be blonde as a child, why didn't it work?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@smartercat I'm sorry! I talk a lot .Plus I wanted to try to answer as many things as I could in the video. I did orange juice once when I ran out of lemon juice, and I liked the way the color turned out. I'll try to get a picture of it, so you guys can see that. And maybe use a bit less conditioner, if you used it. You can also use water instead if your hair doesn't dry easily, or chamomile(that is totally not spelled right) tea.

[jarsky]

@smartercat how many times did you do it? you typically have to do it a few times a week for a couple of weeks to get it lighter. to use lemon juice, you have to go out in the sunlight. the citric acid from the lemons lets more UV light from the sun pass through into your hair and break down the melinin in it, which is what lightens your hair.

[TheSourSkittles]

could i use a tangerine instead of an orange?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@TheSourSkittles i assume that you could. I reccomend you don't use like orange though, i took a risk doing that. I'm not sure how it will show up on other people's hair. Plus you don't really want pulp in your hair thats why I use already squeezed lemon juice.

[indiantwo]

My hair is orange. Dyed it with lemon juice. Im in tears. Don't do it.

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@indiantwo i'm so sorry it did that! It doesn't do that for me. If you have darker hair thats probably why it did that. I believe I tried to explain yellow undertones and red undertones in the video. But I'm super duper sorry that it did that! :(

[melaniexgwen7890]

Do u need to use orange juice

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@melaniexgwen7890 no.

[littlemissaloveable]

you don't condition your hair?!?

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@littlemissaloveable i do i have really dry hair so the lemon juice will fry my hair.

[SmileyWileyFun]

going in the sun helps

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@SmileyWileyFun i know but it was only 40 degrees outside when I did this, so I wasn't gonna go outside. But yes it does help.

[PINKBERRYHOT]

ok

[Rebeccal997beauty]

@kaiteyloo the lemon juice I recommend using the already squeezed stuff, same with oranges. They both have natural sugars, and most orange juices (unless you're drinking sunny d, etc) don't have added sugar, just the natural stuff. I really don't recommend squeezing them yourself, because the pulp will get stuck in your hair (:

Hope i answered your question correctly.
