Let me start off by saying: I am NOT putting this in the "health and beauty" section, because no one ever answers me there. *Shrugs*

My hair is naturally blonde, however its turning this nasty ashy color (Where its not quite brown, nor blonde) at the top. I look at my fathers hair (Of which I clearly take down from), and he was blonde up until his teenage years, and now is the same ashy color, as the top of my head. (Icky)

I was wondering any ways that I can hold onto my blonde hair, WITHOUT dying it.

Sunlight helps alot, so I have been attempting to spend more time in the sunlight, but such a minor effect. I heard something about lemons? Any other ideas, shampoo's, anything I can use or do to keep my hair blonde (Aside from dye)?

You can try a color glaze it isn't dying your hair it just pumps up the intensity of your hair color.
There are also shampoo that is designed for blonde hair that you can try.

Lemon juice supposedly brings out the highlights.

Bump! I need more answers!

Hair glazes definitely, also make sure your hair's in good condition as if its dry it won't reflect light as well. There are shampoos for blonde hair, go for the ones that look 'shimmery' as they actually work the best!! Thats all you can really do without dying, but remember there are natural dyes you can use to lift the colour to one you're happier with.

I'm using sheer blonde shampoo. But it only has minor effects. For all it is to do is to make light reflect off it better. Is that the same mechanics with a glaze? And where could I get one done? (I have never heard of it before)

No, the glaze is.. well, the advert says its like a nail polish for hair, but obviously hair friendly! Here you go - http://www.johnfrieda.com/products/lcg/WhatIsGlazing.asp - i'm not sure if its avaliable in america. But try it :)

Thank you so much! I will be trying it shortly.

Without dying it.. the answer is no.
Just have some really fine foils put through it, they look natural.

It's not uncommon for natural hair color to change over your lifetime.

You could lighten it with lemon juice, but really, that would be more harmful than just dying it. You can still be blond if you dye it, just get a golden or red based blond to nutrulize the ash color of your hair...might turn the rest of your hair a little more golden than you'd like though.

You could also try a blonding shampoo. These are made for blonds who get mineral deposits in their hair that change their hair's color...um...I've only ever heard of them used for brassiness though, I don't know if it'll do a damn thing for ash tones. Sorry.

where do you get the blonding shampoo?
I'm having the same kind of issue with my hair....its not naturally blonde but it has turned to a gross color and its too fried to dye anymore.

u hair changes every 7years, go 2 the salon n get it toned, just so the blonde is even all teh way threw,
