I may self-relax in mid May. I have heard mixed reviews about it. I am just so tired of stylists overlapping relaxers! After my last relaxer, I vowed to learn how to self-relax. Please post suggestions here!
Well, in a way, yes. The front of my hair is much coarser than the back, and I kept underprocessing it.This caused some breakage when I would stretch before I would get a corrective, but I've gotten much better. What really helped me stay focused was the HORRIBLE jobs stylists did with my hair. People coming up and telling me "I have my certificate" are doing a worse job than me. They would not put enough relaxer on my hair and wouldn't base me. My scalp was burning up! I'm happy I've started doing my own relaxer but like someone said before me, it is not for everyone. If you look through my past posts I have a link to my first self relaxing experience
