I was wondering how long it will last in my hair if I dye the ends with lime juice?

That's a permanent natural bleaching process. If you'd like to speed up the process, sit with it in your ends and stay in the sun.
It permanently lightens the hair. It is also drying, so make sure you use conditioner.
Lime! Wow! That is new to me.
I used to use lemons as a teen to turn my brown hair, red. It would last for a few weeks then fade back into brown. I would assume the lime bleach would eventually fade back to your original color or grow out. Maybe it is different for just the ends. I did all of my then long hair when I was young.
I would squeze all the juice into a bowl, massage it into my hair and out into the sun I would go! It took a couple of treatments but I used to get it to a really pretty dark red.
Since that method isn't the healthiest because of the risk of skin cancer, looks like the internet gurus came up with better methods using lime and conditioner.
This link looks interesting. If I wasn't mostly gray, I would try it. Sounds easy:
It is permanent so wait several weeks in between dying with lemon or lime juice.It is drying to your hair.
it is a permanent tint-removing process
Lemons and limes will lighten your hair slightly by bleaching the pigments in each stand of hair, and permanently, but will do more damage to delicate hair as that method is extremely drying.
The product called Sun-In for instance, can do the same thing, and was made for hair, so it's gentler, plus, you can use the heat of a hair dryer to enact it, not just the heat from sitting in the sun.
