How much is Lye? I will have to try to come up with whatever it takes to get that...funds are nil to none at this time. I’ll try just about ANYTHING at this point...though I’m not sure how to use that in my hair or on my face near my eyes.
About $3 or so for a small jar.
Ask a neighbor, they might have some for drain cleaning.
Lye won’t harm your face, or eyes. Just don’t over-do it by saturating the towel too much because it has a drying effect on skin.
Let the towel drip for a moment before using it.
