How to Achieve Sun Kissed Hair Without the Sun

I partnered with John Frieda® Hair Care in this sponsored post.

You know what I’ve always loved about the summer as a teenager? Those beautiful natural highlights it would give me every year. Now that I’m older [and hopefully wiser], I know that it was probably not the best way to treat my hair. However, my love for subtle highlights still remains, but instead of baking my strands in the sun I opt in for specially designed hair care, created specifically for this purpose.

Want to find out how I achieve sun kissed hair without the sun? It’s actually really easy with John Frieda® Hair Care products that you can pick up at Walmart. Released earlier this year, Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Brighter™ lineup is exactly what I was looking for to brighten up my brunette locks. I already wrote about this collection before when it first appeared in the stores, but now that highlights are “in season” I thought I would revisit these products and remind you how awesome they are.

Visibly Brighter™ Collection includes three products:

• Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Brighter™ Subtle Lightening Shampoo
• Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Brighter™ Subtle Lightening Conditioner
• Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Brighter™ In-Shower Lightening Treatment

Visibly Brighter™ Shampoo and Conditioner are designed to be used in tandem to gradually brighten brunette hair without brassiness, giving it a warm golden hue. The effects are subtle and will gradually build with continued use, which is perfect for someone who doesn’t like drastic changes. As for me, I am a huge fan of Visibly Brighter™ In-Shower Lightening Treatment. It lightens my hair up to one shade in just one wash! These products work on natural, highlighted and color-treated hair, so there’s no reason not to try freshening up your hair color this season. I’ve been using this line since January and love the way my hair looks right now.

For those of you who would rather darken your hair, John Frieda® Hair Care Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Deeper™ collection is worth checking out. Like Visibly Brighter™, the line includes three products, but instead of lightening they are designed to deepen brunette hair color, giving it more richness and depth. You can find both collections at your local Walmart.
