I'm curious about using lemon as a natural remedy for my hair. If I mix half a lemon with a mug of water, can I use it to rinse my hair every day? I'm really hoping it will make my hair feel smooth and help with dandruff. Just want to make sure there's no harm in using lemon this often. Also, on days I don't shampoo, is it okay to just use the lemon water rinse? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!

I've been dealing with some itching in my crotch area and inner thigh, and there's also a noticeable smell. I think it might be because I work out but only shower about twice a week. I just picked up Candid TV suspension and itch guard from the chemist. I'm wondering if using these will fix the issue or if there's more I should be doing. Also, is it okay to use soap in the groin area, or should I avoid it?

No. continue same treatment.
