Review: Easy, cheap way for my dark brown hair to lighten up. - I have used Sun In for many years on and off. I recently was using the Tropical Breeze variety and it worked great on my dark brown hair. I didn't even realize how much lighter my hair was getting until I compared pictures from before I started using Sun In and after. The Lemon kind is fine as well. Some say the Tropical Breeze has more peroxide and is "stronger". I haven't really noticed much difference between the two. I spray Sun In on my dry hair and just leave it in. I don't even blow dry it or go in the sun half the time. Sometimes, I spray it and blow dry. When it gets warmer, I will certainly go out in the sun with Sun In in my hair because that will speed up the lightening. I like lighter brown hair but it gets damaged when my stylist does it. I get no damage when using Sun In. It's gradual but that's fine with me. It looks natural too. The only thing is that I don't really get highlights. I get all over lightening. It's probably because I don't spray just a few strands separately but just spray it wherever. Obviously where I spray, it will lighten. I have seen pictures of black haired women going blond just from Sun In but that wouldn't happen with me. It just takes me down a few shades which is all I want. In all, it's a cheap and easy way to lighten even dark hair. I have had my hair professionally highlighted and still used Sun In to brighten my look. It CAN turn a bit brassy at times. I recently dyed over my hair with a dark blonde hair color which toned down the brassiness but didn't lighten my hair overall since you can't go from dark to light without bleaching or peroxide. So now, whenever I see that my hair is looking a little yellow or brassy, I will just dye it with the dark blond and I am good to go. I'm pleased with the product and have been for decades. NOTE: The photo I attached is me at my darkest natural color. The second photo is after three bottles of Sun In and sun exposure. It was starting to get brassy so I eventually toned it down but you can see it really does lighten! I do think though that the second picture makes my hair look a bit lighter than it really is. It really depends on the lighting.
Review: Does exactly what it says it does. - awesome product. Does what it claims to do.
