I did.
It was straight all over.
I hated it.
My stylist did it.
He did my texturizer too.
I hated the texturizer as well.
I have not posted them in my Fotki, I've been l.a.z.y.

Why did you hate the texturizer and the relaxer?

I am texlaxed, I went to the salon last week and he blowed and flat ironed my hair bone straight. I must say I hated it. My hair was limp and lifeless. Don't ge me wrong the style was beautiful, but I felt like my hair was damaged. I washed and conditioned my hair ASAP. While this not the same as relaxing bone straight, it did get me over the idea of doing so.

Well it was not because of my stylist (he's a god :luv2:)
I hated it b/c the texturizer was supposed to loosen my curl pattern but it was frizzier and even more unruly than natural. A wash and go was out of the question. My hair did not turn out like some of the texlaxed ladies on this forum. I summed it up to my natural texture is just not one that will yield those results.

The relaxer after or on top of a texturizer was the final nail in the coffin. My hair was super straight, no life, no body, thin, would not hold a curl.

It was my idea to do both b/c I told my stylist that I was tired of my natural hair - I felt that it was too much work. He told me the pros and cons and I did it. Just like w/ everything in my hair life, I knew that if it did not work out, it would grow back. At the time I had every intention of stying relaxed but when I looked at my hair, I missed my natural waves and curls. I missed the fullness and if I did want a straight or curly style, all I needed was a flat iron & nothing else.

I would not recommend it but everyone has to make the decision that they feel is best for them.

^^^^Thanks for the reply. I'm sorry neither worked out for you but at least now you know. Sometimes I think we just have to try and see for ourselves.
