: Limes are a little more acidic than lemons. With fresh lemon or
lime
: juice added to henna (side by side) .... no visible difference in
: results. The 3 dried lime experiments I did gave me results
identical
: to the fresh juice. However .... if you want to make a "witch's
brew"
: , boiling up dried limes is ideal, because you can throw in
cloves,
: rose blossoms, dried orange peal, grenadine syrup, kumquats, angel
: wings, fairy dust .... that is to say something that is not only
: intensely acidic but wonderfully fragrant .... that will enhance
the
: aesthetics of your henna (and of course the cloves will darken it).
: Fun. Harmless.
