Got my hair done

[Chasney01]

I got a touch up. My hair came out nicely but im am worried that it might be underprocessed. The front seems fine but the back still has wave to it. I am fine with it, i am just concerned that the difference between the two textures could cause breakage which equal setbacks. I'd hate to have to relax again. Is there a chance that its just texturized and i can just leave it alone? Any advice would be much appreciated.

It's kind of hard to tell without actually seeing it. Did your stylist leave the relaxer in the back of your hair less time than in the front? My hair isn't relaxed bone straight, so I always have some wave to it (unless I'm get it roller set then wrapped to wear it straight). Some people tell me my hair is texturized, and some people tell me my hair is under-processed. To this day, I still don't know the difference. However, it's working out well for me.

Is it relaxed to a point that you are comfortable with or do you want it straighter? To me "under processed" and "texturized" are pretty much the same thing. I don't think either one is a bad thing. It just means that your hair has not been relaxed to the point of being bone straight, which is what so many hairstylist have done over the years. Hair that still has some of its natural wave pattern is stronger and maintains more of its elasticity, making it less likely to break. The back of my hair always maintains more of it's natural pattern even though I start in the back, but a wet set on large rollers usually makes my hair completely straight.
