Was I specific enough . . . what are you relaxing your hair with?
I am doing my touch-up this evening (texurelaxed) and am curious to know what everyone is doing (with success of course). Not looking for anything that will make my hair lose body or burn my scalp. I have been alternating between Soft and Beautiful and ORS Olive Oil (regular).
Also, do I need to do an ACV rinse during this session? If not, when?
Thanks!

are the chances?! I have been natural for about a year now, because my hair and my scalp just didn't seem to take perms well. But recently, I decided to texturize -- I used Elasta QP Mild Lye (got it from my local BSS for about $5, not in the kit) and mixed it about half and half with conditioner. I used Optimum Multi Mineral Conditioner to bring down the pH and then used Optimum Multi Mineral neutralizing shampoo and I must say my hair has NEVER felt so good with a relaxer! My scalp never burned (although I only used it to texturize) and my hair felt more moisturized that when I was natural! I did have to shampoo A LOT though, to get all of the relaxer out, and then on my next wash I shampooed again with the neutralizing shampoo just to make sure. It has been about 6 weeks since I relaxed and my hair is still as strong and moisturized as the first day.
