When you want highlight in your hair, you don't have to rely on strong chemicals and dyes. There are many natural ways that you can highlight your hair with things that you already have at home.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Add a little oil. Many different products on the market are designed to help your hair look and feel silky to the touch. Oils are especially good at making the hair shiny, and help it look three-dimensional. Add a little bit to your hair before blow drying for natural highlights.

  2. Step 2

    Deep condition your hair at least once a week. Well-moisturized hair is beautiful hair, so do a deep conditioning treatment at least once a week for shiny locks.

  3. Step 3

    Take an egg bath. Crack a few eggs into a bowl and beat until blended. Then apply the mixture to dry hair and cover it with a plastic bag. Let the egg sit in your hair for 15 minutes before rinsing it out with tepid water.

  4. Step 4

    Air dry only. If you want to add highlight to your hair, skip the blow drying whenever possible. The more heat that touches your hair, the dryer and duller it will appear. So let it air dry for prettier hair.

  5. Step 5

    Protect your hair from the elements. Sun and pool water can wreak havoc on hair, so always apply a conditioner before hitting the pool. This will keep the chemicals at bay and protect your natural highlights.
