is lemon good for scalp - #24709
I am having this really annoying itch on my scalp these days, and I was just reading about natural remedies and stumbled upon info that says "is lemon good for scalp?" I mean, I've heard that lemon is great for a lot of things, right? Like, doesn't it help with oily skin and brightening stuff? But I'm not sure if that translates to the scalp! I tried squeezing some on my scalp after mixing it with coconut oil, but it felt kinda sticky and I couldn't tell if it was helping or just making my hair icky. My boyfriend was like, are you trying to cook something on your head? Lol. But I wasn’t really cooking, just trying to deal with this itch. I also noticed some flakes, which is kinda embarrassing because I’m in that phase of wearing a lot of black lately. So, is lemon good for scalp health or should I be looking at something else? Plus, I've heard that it's acidic and could potentially irritate my already sensitive skin. Just feeling a bit lost here! Any ideas, tips, or experiences would really help!
