Is Mizani Sensitive Scalp a No-Lye Relaxer?

[Supergirl]

friend and I were trying to figure this out. She says it's guanidine hydroxide. I thought this was no-lye. Help us out--thanks

Guanidine hydroxide is NOLye

Sodium Hydroxide is lye.. Hope this helps!

That's good to know!

It sure is no lye. This is the Vitale relaxer that I started out with (years ago). From what I understand, all relaxers contain some type of lye.

Bumping to ask:

Is guanidine hydroxide the only straightening ingredient? There's no calcium hydroxide?

I can't find the ingredient list online, so I'm hoping someone has a kit lying around that they can reference.
