For a cost effective way to use Chamomile, use herbs instead of the essential oils. As herbs can cost around $9 and up, some EOs will run upwards of $20.

Lemon. Who hasn't tried lemons to lighten their hair! This method works great to lighten hair color. You can use the juice from fresh lemons or an easier way is to buy the lemon juice concentrate from the store. Lemon is VERY drying to the hair.

Spritz hair with 1 part lemon juice, 2 parts water and 1 teaspoon oil.
