So I got a relaxer at JCPenney Salon and LOVED IT!
Very nice experience. 16 weeks post relaxer and she used
Affirm Sensitive Scalp. This is gonna be my go-to relaxer now because I experienced NO :burning: on my scalp whatsoever.
She was ON TIME! I barely sat in the waiting area before she called me up. Didnt even have time to open up a magazine. She based me up and let it sit in my hair for a lil' bit while she rollerset another client. She was fast and asked questions.
She said she'd like to use other products like Affirm Fiberguard and Phyto, etc. but being that JCPenney is more of a corporate salon type atmosphere, they can only use certain products.
What she know about Phyto?
LOL
I said NO scissors and she listened. I said NO crunchy, setting lotion and she listened. In fact, she used some
Joico K-pak Leave-in..What she know about Joico?!
AND, she used a RECONSTRUCTOR on my hair BEFORE neutralizing!!
Who does that? No one knows about that!
Affirm 5 n 1!!! That stuff is NICE!! She kept laughing at me and my questions. Kept asking what kind, whats the brand, who is that by, lemme look in that dye bowl first, etc...
Suggested a Demi-permanent rinse instead of semi since i complained of always having to do rinses. Think it was called MATRIX Prizms in Black. LOVE IT.
My hair turned out so pretty...until I went outside in the humid heat and it turned into this
. But i ran a little KeraCare essential oil through my hair, popped in my rollers and the next day it was nice and fluffy.
Price? Never spent this much on a relaxer/style in my life.
But I will pay it again because it was a good experience. Great time management, professional, I even got a coupon punch card,etc.
Was kind of different getting my hair done right next to Becky
..but i'll gladly leave traditional salons for better service.
Please DO NOT QUOTE PICS, yall know how we hate that and these pics are too big for all that mess! THANKS
