Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it last?
Results will stay light. Whenever you lighten hair, whether at the salon or with Sunbabe, it’s permanent because pigment is lifted from hair to create a lighter shade. Sunbabe lightens gradually over a few uses, so results are in your control. Continue use to lighten up to 3 shades!
How do you compare to other brands?
There are key differences between us and other brands. Sunbabe includes violet pigment to counteracts brassiness. Sunbabe Solar Hair Lightener is also slightly stronger and includes quality ingredients that support your hair during lightening. We omit ingredients commonly found in other methods of lightening, including alcohol, parabens, sulphates, phthalates, metallic salts, aluminum and ammonia. We are also proudly 100% cruelty free, vegan and made in Canada.
Will it damage my hair?
Our formula acts as a gentler alternative to conventional hair bleach. Sunbabe lightens hair gradually to avoid stressing out strands and is buildable over a few uses to avoid going too light too quickly.
Does it work on dyed hair?
Yes, Sunbabe will lift the dye from your hair to help to achieve a lighter shade.
What if it's bleached?
Yes, Sunbabe safely and effectively lightens bleached hair. Both bleached and natural strands will lighten 2-3 shades over a few uses.

Why Sunbabe
Customer Reviews
In 2 summers I got back my childhood blonde with just sunbabe! Dark dirty blonde —> Barbie blonde💕 thank you sunbabe for an amazing line of products keeping my hair beautiful, light, healthy, and luscious. I also want to say that their hair oil is AMAZING as well. Not only does it help my hair and make it soft and shiny, it smells wonderful. If you are on the fence—INVEST IN THIS!!! It is magic in a bottle.💕💞
I like brightness around my face, but my stylist added too many lowlights, for the third time. Out of frustration, I ordered Sunbabe. When it arrived, I nearly changed my mind. I associate spray lighteners with brassiness and was worried about ruining my (technically good) professional highlights. But the instructions advise doing a test first, which I did on a lower layer.
I am shocked at the results. Sunbabe lightened my hair beautifully, with no brassiness. I had quite a bit of root growth, and it lightened my roots to blend perfectly with the lengths, which had been highlighted and lowlighted. Even my unprocessed roots have some dimension after using Sunbabe, making the color look very natural. I've purchased so many products that don't do what they claim, but Sunbabe delivers!
I have absolutely loved this product. I bulk buy 3 bottles that have lasted me for months and have continued buying for 3+ years! It keeps my hair blonde and with living in Hawaii, the sun and this product work so well!
I am so happy with SUNBABE! I use it regularly on my roots and this keeps my hair blonde. Thank you for this great product.
I have long hair and have colored my hair in various ways for a long time. For many years I paid over 100.00 every 6 weeks. I used Sunbabe for the first time and was surprised at the delicate blonde color that emerged. I now use it to keep up the beautiful color.
