Lemon juice is a mixture of chemicals so it is not possible to say whether it has covalent or ionic bonds.
The citric acid present would have polar covalent bonds. Citric acid releases a small amount of positive hydrogen ions, H+, that give it a nice tang on our tongue when we taste lemon juice.
Most of lemon juice is water that also has polar covalent bonds known as hydrogen bonding.
There would be dissolved sugars in the form of glucose or fructose that have hydrogen bonding.
The rest of the lemon juice is the organic matter from the lemon which has covalent bonds.
Salts have ionic bonds and all living things have to have dissolved salts to allow cell mechanisms to function so that means there would be some dissolved salts present in the lemon juice as well.

The hair as with everything begins with atoms, these build up to create amino acids which the hair contains 18 of the 21 amino acids, those build up to create polypeptide chains which produce peptide bonds or side bonds (there are 3, hydrogen, salt, disulfide) this create the Cortical layer which leafs to the cuticle
