Merry Christmas everyone !!!!
I have a strange hair problem and you guys are the only ones that would listen or care. For the past year, my hair has not been taking relaxer like it use to. Meaning, everytime I perm my hair it becomes more and more underprocessed to the point where it slightly texturized. This is the 3rd time that this has happened to me in a row
. The first time, I used Soft and Beautifuls no0,ye relaxer, that was ok, not too straight. However, after one month i really really saw the underprocessed/texturized hair. I know new growth and I know hair that is underprocessed. Ok, so I bought Affirm Mild lye. I went to the hairdresser as usual, the smoothing time and time the perm was left on my head was 45 minutes. My scalp was starting to burn so I let her wash it out. I go home, 3-4 days later, I washed my hair (no protien) and my hair is wavy, completely underprocessed/texturized
. Fast forward, this was 14 wks. ago. Last weekend, I got a touch up and was determined to NOT have underprocessed hair, so I bought a perm that has never failed me, Affirm NO-Lye, Regular strength. Ok, the perm was applied quickly and smoothed well. Before I even began to relax my hair, I showed the hairdresser my new growth/underprocessed hair. As soon as the relaxer hit my hair the waves smoothed out. My hair looked bone straight. This process took a total of 17 minutes. I even asked the hair dresser if it is straight, she assured me that it was and told me I have a lot of hair but it is fine and easily straightened. Well, I wash my hair with poo and light conditioner about 5 days later and AGAIN texturized/underprocessed hair. I know that my hair is becoming resistant to relaxer b/c this is has never happened to me before and I have been relaxing for 12 years. I am thinking of texturizing my hair b/c. Is this some type of wierd divine sign? Especially since the healthiest/thickest part of my hair is the underprocessed/texturized part. Can u guys take a look at my hair texture in my hair album and give me some of advice on texturizing since it may be a strong possibility here.
