Do natural dreads just gradually start getting lighter in color over time or is this always just because people have gotten their dreads colored?
It depends how what hair color the person has. My hair is brownish-blond, and when it gets sun for a month or so, it turns super blond..
sun bleaches hair but also using lemmon juice combined with heat or sun acts like peroxide and really lightens hair
I've noticed that most people's locks get lighter from the sun over time, no matter what hair color they have. I have naturally brownish hair, but the CAlifornia sun has pretty much colored it blonde...
