Lemons are a wonderful natural remedy for many health problems.
I have a full head of 50% silvery grey hair with lots of cowlicks. I have been using lemon juice on my hair for many years, with no ill effects whatsoever.
I saturate my hair with lemon juice and water and brush/finger my hair to about where I want it to be. When the hair dries, it is as hard as if I had used mousse on it, but the cowlicks are somewhat under control.
An added benefit is that the lemon juice tones down the grey so I look like I have much less grey than I really do. I hope this helps others with cowlicks and greying hair they prefer to take natural control of.
