Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
I bleached my hair blonde from black. I did not want to rebleach right away so i bought this and i love it. My hair was blonde and still had some of the yellow color in it. I used this once on dry hair and then got in the tanning bed and i seen a diffrence i also straighted my hair for more heat. my sister asked me if i rebleached my hair again. The smell is a little bad but it goes away.

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
This lightened my hair in 3-5 uses just like the packaging said, I just did this last week, but it doesn't seem to have dried my hair, or cause any breakage, I don't intend on using it everyday, just wanted to lighten up a bit without paying for highlights at a salon, some of the reviews on here really freaked me out...so I'm going to use this sparingly.

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
I just bought the second bottle of this, and I am hooked on it. The product has noticeably lightened my hair and I have even gotten compliments on how my hair looks blonder. It is the perfect product for any blonde looking to enhance their color and embrace being blonde.

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
Thought this product was great until it ruined my hair in December 2011. It is now April of 2013 and even after seeing a colorist/stylist once per month for the past year and a half, I am STILL dealing with the irreparable damage on a daily basis. What I've gone through is definitely not worth the temporary benefits of this product. It will inevitably ruin your hair, and you'll spend tons of money trying to get it back to where it was

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
This is a terrific way to lighten your hair! I actually have brown hair. I dyed it way too dark last time and I thought I would have to add some streaks with dye to lighten it. I bought this instead and it is so much better than using chemicals to lighten your hair. It lightened my hair with beautiful natural highlights. I love it! It contains lemon and chamomile which does a really beautiful job.

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
I have naturally dirty blonde colored hair that lightens in the summer time. I use this every spring to lighten my winter growth. Looks natural, no smell. Way cheaper and less upkeep than highlights.

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
I started using this product about a year ago and used it until the end of this past summer. It turned my dark blonde hair very blonde and I thought all was peachy keen, until the aftermath.. I have always had very thick long hair (about to my belly button) and my hair is now broken off many inches. I would have been better off getting my hair bleached at the salon! Granted, this product is not meant for intense lightening, but I STRONGLY STRONGLY advise not to use it! It will damage your hair and you will be sorry. I haven't touched my hair with dye or heat since practically September, and my hair still will not stop breaking off and splitting. Worst decision ever

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
I asked my friend about her lighter hair and she told me this is what she uses. I read reviews before I bought it, and they were mixed it generally good.
I definitely didn't have a problem with the smell like some reviews. It didn't bother me at all. But I only use it on the ends of my hair - I have ombré and I'm trying to get the tips lighter.
Bottle says you'll see a difference in 3-5 uses and my boyfriend said something after the 3rd time I used it, so it must be working!
The only negative is that it dries out your hair, but it IS peroxide after all :)

Comments about John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray:
Use a minimal amount to avoid a nasty, greasy buildup. It takes a couple uses to show results, but it helps turn your hair lighter and it also helped me get some brassiness out of my color!
