Many of the hair products sold today were hair remedies used back in the day. So that is how that idea got in their head. Yes people cut cucomebers and place them on their eyelids, to help remove puffiness.
IF YOU don't like the idea of using the natural products, than you don't have to. Yes, some people use carrots (creamed in the blender...true carrot cream) on their hair.
You can go to other forums on this site and see that lemon juice is not uncommon. It's not used for "making waves" it is used for clarifying your hair instead of using harsh shampoos and shine. Now, ya'll have been hit with more knowledge there is not more information can you get that will help you to open your mind.

Lol damn a lot of yall shootin the man down. How yall think people figured out carrots are good for the hair, and why are carrots good for the hair? I'm a pure science man chemistry and various others or whatnot. Vitamin C is great for the hair and removes dead skin cells when applied to the skin, and since lemons have a good scent and are so easy to get juice from. It's not a bad idea. When I’m growing my hair I do research on the best methods for optimum hair growth. Lemon acid does have the tendency to dry out hair so when i use it. I combine lemon juice with jojoba oil. Not only is my hair softer and has a nice natural shine. It also grows fuller quicker. Be careful since hair is carbon based lemon juice will cause an reaction called acid catalyzed oxidation. Which tends to lighten your hair I suggest you do not do it wavekid's way since he sprays and leaves it in his head, and walks around outside with the juice still in his hair. I used this method before I grew my hair out and I was spinnin like crazy. Since I've had braids for 4 years I have 2 train my hair again. I will post pics of my hair in about 4 months to show the results.
Here is my method
In the shower (soft brush)
Mix 3tbs lemon juice w/ 2tsp jojoba oil
Wet Hair & Apply Mixture brush in your wave pattern rinse
Shampoo hair & brush in pattern rinse
Add conditioner keep brushing then rinse
Out the shower (What ever brush u like don’t use the same on u used in the shower)
Brush hair dry
Add luster’s light pink oil moisturizer in your hair brush evenly
Then add let jams extra hold (orange top) and brush evenly
Kjay how do you think people get carrot extract and carrot oil...it starts with u cutting a carrot?
I know it starts with u cutting a carrot buts thats not what i said , wat i said was that its not the same thing as using carrot cream, carrot cream is meant as a hair product lemon juice is meant to drink
do me a favour and look at the ingredients of ur carrot cream
deionized water, isopropyl myristate, cetearyl alcohol, ect. ( i didnt know all these things came from carrots)
oh my god im not even gonna wright all the ingredients but the point is that cutting a carrot and sqeezing the juice on ur head isnt the same as using the cream
aight be honest if sumone came on now and made a topic haha saying " yo man take a carrot put it in the blender shake it up real nice and just pour it all over ur head ....and du rag that nice and tight... it will make ur hair soft and managable" would yall use it and would yall be like yoooooo thats natural extracts man that'll make ur hair of the chain
yall are acting like im trashing his idea im not though wavekid if u dont have a problem with having lemon on ur head then its all good its just that i really dont want a sticky head, so right now the only thing ama stick to is my method u feel me, but if it works for u then keep doen wat u do man i dont want anyone to take what im saying the wrong way i just got interested in the topic u know
it waz in the bottle the lemon extract then a new lemon cut it but baller im glasd ur nit closeminded and these pics /\ where from like 4 days with lemon juice water ok im sayin it worked for me but yall no if cashflow waz like try des yall be like yay lemon juice
treat people the way you want to be treated

everynow and then on dis site there will be crazy methods and it might work for them. but it doesn't mean u hav to follow it. follow ur own method that has been working for u.
the wave game is a game of stategies, methods, and experience to become a champion!
still sounds stupid and taking waves to far....if u
told the average person on the street bout that they laugh at u forever
no matter how much u tell dem how good it is
so if lusters or hollywood beauty came out with lemon creme. n it was
the best wave product would u use it? probably. i dont know
what the big deal is. i actually tried it last night. n my hair had
alot more shine 2 it. its like the h20 method with some flavor added
in. when u use the h20 method du u ever mix i with anything? i used to
n that is when my waves started coming out. i bet if 360 spinna gave
the same info as wavekid yall would have jumed on his bandwagon. its
all about who has more credibility
lemon creame i cop not no damn lemon from frig and sqirt on my head...thats the gayest thing to do
