Lemon
Juice |
|
For volume
Mix the juice of one lemon with 100ml of water and put into a spray
bottle. Spray lightly through your hair, then blow dry. The acidity
of the lemon juice swells the strands giving volume. Remember though
if out in the sun the lemon will lighten your hair so take this
into consideration.
