Re: Onion Juice *Update* Just in case anyone hasn't been dissuaded from trying this: the towel I used, after being washed twice, still smells like onions! (My hair, fortunately, got off scot-free). Oh, and the red patch on my nape is still there __________________

I've read that onion juice or extract is the main ingredient in Mederma and other scar healing ointments. I was rubbing on onion for a while but you kinda hafta have privacy. Othawise DH or SO may not dig it.

Wow, I've never heard of that! Be sure and post your results...

This is why I will never try this on myself, as I have no desire to smell like raw onions for weeks. __________________ nordic hennahead
