Winter has come. I have already prepared my winter essentials and placed a few of my summer must-haves at the back of our closet. However, there are still a few things about the summer season and warmer climate that I simply can’t let go. One of these is having beautiful highlights and ombre streaks on my hair.
The cold season can become quite gloomy and one pick-me-up that I use to ward off the anxiety and depression that comes with the winter season is adding a hint of lighter shade to my hair (preferably the tips). Ombre hairstyle makes me look more young, fun, and carefree.
If you are curious as to how I can still afford to lighten my hair despite having a cute little baby boy, well, I will share my secret with you—the SunIn Hair Lightener! Having a lighter hair shade used to be a summer thing but because of this product, I am able to enjoy sporting sun-streaked hair all year long!
Since I have medium to brown hair, I got both shades that help me achieve my desired hair color, and those are the SunIn Lemon Fresh Hair Lightener and Tropical Breeze Hair Lightener. And YES I love both products! Believe it or not, this product is alcohol-free which means no unwanted damage! It brings out ones natural highlights effortlessly. In fact, even my husband said that the color of my hair is like a breath of fresh air from the gloomy winter weather. Ain’t that sweet?
The thing that I love most about this product is that it does not only lighten my hair—it conditions it as well! Not only that, this hair lightener is so easy to apply. Just merely spray it to damp hair and comb it through. If you want to achieve the perfect sun-streaked look, you just have to spray only on the strands that you wish to highlight. Just like what I do for the ends/tips of my hair. Guess what? This product is readily available at every local Walmart and also at Walmart.com – super convenient!
Making your hair lighter has never been this fun and EASY! This hair lightening treatment works even without the help of the season since it also works with your hair dryer. Talk about combining beauty and convenience in just one product! Check out the following editorials from other beauty bloggers and learn more about Sunin.

December 18, 2017I used this back in the day when I was a teenager. I had no idea it was still around. How fun.

December 18, 2017That sounds like a fun product! I think it’s awesome that you’re able to lighten your hair without having to dye it. It’s definitely convenient!
Laura @ MommyDearest
December 18, 2017I never thought to use Sunin in the winter months. I have only ever used this product once, I have fairly light hair on it’s own though as I am getting older it’s not so light anymore. I think I might give this a try. .

December 19, 2017I want some of that. Love the fact that you can just spray it on and comb through. Do you any idea how it works on grey hair Angela?

December 19, 2017Growing up, living in the south, I was outside by the pool every year when summer vacation hit. I had my sunscreen, towel, float, and SunIn! I had no idea that this was still around.

December 19, 2017I color my hair a lot but I’ve never used a product like this before! I like that it’s easy to use and that you can just put it on when you need your hair to be a shade lighter!

December 20, 2017Oh my gosh, I totally remember using this when I was younger! I was so obsessed with light, blonde hair. But now I’m embracing my natural, darker red locks!

December 20, 2017Although I oil and condition my hair every week, have never tried this product. I love light shade, so I will try it soon. I guess it easy to use and good for hair.
Maria
December 20, 2017I have medium brown hair as well, so I’m wondering how lighter I’d get my hair! I tried the sunkiss jelly from loreal last year and it worked well, but this one seems less abrasive! my hair got super dry….
Nati
December 20, 2017What a fun product! I have never really thought to lighten my hair, I have very dark brown hair (and now I also have a few white ones, lol)
