Is Vitale Mo Body No Lye a good relaxer

[jasmin]

I used Elasta regular no lye last touch up but I want my hair to be a little straighter. I think I reverted to fast with the Elasta.

I think I tried once in my relaxed days and liked it. My mother (3b/c) uses it regularly with good results - I like the foaming protein conditioner that comes with it.

Thanks for your response.

Hi Jasmin,

I use Vitale Regular strength (Lye) relaxer with great results. I've never used the no-lye, but the other one is terrific. If you'd ever consider switching to lye, it's good. Gets my hair really straight.

Hi Bree /images/graemlins/wave.gif

When I got my first relaxer (over 10 years ago), that's what the stylist used, and I've been using it ever since. I must admit that I did have a temporary "moment of insanity" for a few years (shortly after I got my 1st relaxer) when I switched to no-lye, but it's been about 6 years that I've been using Vitale LYE consistently. It gets my hair REALLY straight! Sometimes I wish my hair had a bit more texture so I can wash-n-go and have a bit of curl and not be bone-straight.

I use Vitale's Regular Lye, along w/the Positive Conditioner and Neutralizing shampoo. I love it! I only leave it on for about 15 minutes. I never have a problem w/burns, unless I scratch my head beforehand.

Vitale Mo Body is a lye relaxer - a sensitive scalp lye relaxer, but still a sodium hydroxide relaxer nonetheless. I just looked at the box my mom left over here.

Thanks Virtuasis! That means that she should be good to go. Mine isn't for sensitive scalps.

They have a new Mo Body no lye relaxer with shea butter.
