Hi, Elizabeth - I seem to be a bit of a rarity, but I find with the
lemon juice, the problem isn't hair damage - it is skin damage! I got
a very nasty dermatitis from it, my first time round, including where
I had inadvertently splashed some on my breast during application. It
has taken over three months to heal. I hasten to add that I seem to
be in a very small minority, but others have mentioned itching as an
apparent result of using lemon juice. So the caveat is to do a patch
test with it [as one is supposed to do with hair dyes] before any
further work. If you already know that you have no sensitivity to it -
carry on!
