    Default Natural-sun bleached highlights

    I’m currently growing out dye. It’s been over ten years since I started dying so I’m eagerly waiting to see some natural sun bleached highlights in my virgin hair. I find myself trying to walk in the sun to help things along. There are only a few inches of virgin growth at the moment so not much is going on. But what about those of you with virgin hair, at what length are your natural highlights, or more specifically a change in hair color caused by the sun, obvious (without holding your hair up to your roots)?

    Meh, mine's visibly not black just past shoulder length, almost blonde by tailbone. Looks damaged like that, on me, IMHO.

    I have some at the very front of my hair - about half an inch thick on each side. They go all the way down, and become more prominent in the summer.

    mine have really come out after I gave up die 2 years ago and I love them! I have a fairly thick one in the back and quick a few blond streaks at my temples. Over all my colour has gotten more depth thanks to loosing the dye and getting some sun - couldn't be happier with it

    My roommate has very long hair that gets noticeably lighter at the end. On myself, I'm not sure.

    As a child my blonde hair always got really light blonde on the top layer and dark blonde underneath from the sun, I hope it still does that! I'm growing out dye too! Can't wait till summer
