    I think I'll try again tomorrow but with EVOO and honey.

    I am so sorry that this happened to you. It has happened to others too, and thankfully, like your experience, it was temporary.

    I would give yourself some time, a day or 2 at least before you try a treatment, to let your scalp and skin fully recover from sensitivity, even though the redness is gone.

    Honey lightening with added oil has not been reported to be a problem, however, I suggest that you start with 1/2 tablespoon of either oil, to mak it easier to wash out of the hair.

    It is the correct 4 to 1 dilution, the right honey and good water (distilled) that can make the difference for a treatment, plus keeping the hair very wet before and while it is covered.

    The boosters are great but they are less important than the honey, IMO.
