I chickened out of self relaxing....

[*ElleB]

I sat up here and detangled my hair, section it off, took all the stuff out the box and chickened out...

I need some tips and encouragement...I really shouldn't spend the money to go to the salon...I have it but it would better of used for something else.


Help.

Do it girl! there's soo many tips in here.

How can I help? Let' see..

• put some cholesterol on the hair that's been relaxed already
• base your scalp
• after applying and rinsing relaxer and a mild reconstructor to your hair (keritin 2 min) and prior to neutrilizing
• maybe if you have someone around you can get them to help especially with the back
• TLC, patience and some quickness in applying

I will let the other ladies come in with more. But you can do it girl!!!!!

Girl you could do it and I bet you can do it better than any salon!!!! Have patience- and make sure you prepare the hair and have all of your supplies on hand. In addition to above make sure you adhere to the time constraints!

Do a trial run or two with cholesterol cream.

It's how I learned that I have to much hair to relax in 20 minutes. (I have to do half of my head at a time)

Going throught the same concerns myself! I am debating whether to self texlax my head full of natural hair. Still debating.....

Let us know what you decide!

Thanks for the encouragement...the 2 min reconstructor you are refering to is the one by Aphogee?
