I ordered a relaxer, acidifying shampoo and conditioner from Elucence last Thursday. I figured it would be here either yesterday or today so I washed it on Sunday and blowdried it (my hair is natural so this would make it easier to part while relaxing) put it in a fat plait and left it alone in preparation for getting a relaxer today. Well today my package comes in the mail and I'm estatic! SO I tear open the box and there is the relaxer, there is the conditioner but NO moisture acidifying shampoo so I can neutralize!!!
I emailed the company and they are going to ship my shampoo out today but my question is what the heck am I going to do until then?!?!?! My head itches like crazy and I don't want to wash it because I'll feel compelled to blowdry it again. In order to leave my hair alone the days before the relaxer I have been completely bumming it at work. I have been wearing a scarf to work and because my head look a mess I don't feel like putting on decent clothes (besides, they would have to match my scarf) so I've worn jeans the last few days and I'm sure my boss and others around here think there is something wrong with me. I'm really trying to slap this relaxer in my hair before someone comes to me about adhering to dress code! So what can I do for tomorrow and Friday with my head that won't irritate my scalp and will keep me from looking like a bum?
