My mother started putting it in my hair and told me it was to make it softer. It did when I was really young. And it does depend on how porous your hair is. Your sister was right to keep her hair wet cause the lemon juice didn't soak all in to certain areas, it was 'watered down' and that probably kept her hair in better shape.
