Wish me luck!!!
I am going to the salon (b/c I don't do my own relaxer) to get my first relaxer in 3 years. I have called, confirmed and confirmed AGAIN that she knows what I want - texlaxed - so hopefully there are no surprises. Assuming all will go well, I will make sure to post pics!!!

I got my Phyto!!! I used Index I b/c I did not want her to have to rush and I wanted it done RIGHT. I am seriously HEART-ING on this stylist right now. She's the first to actually listen to me (but that may be b/c I actually told her what I wanted and sounded seeerious).
Anyhow, at first she was like, "this ain't no relaxer b/c it was taking it's sweet time even loosening the curl. || I have very thick hair. || So it got to the texture I wanted and she started on the rest of my hair. Ya'll, she had to have asked me like 200 times how I even heard of this relaxer. I HAPPILY announced that I heard about it from people on the hair board (I'm selfish and I don't tell people the name anymore unless they ask). Thanks to all of you for giving me the courage and information to start this journey again.
It took her about 20-25 minutes to get it to the point I wanted it.
AND, (check this out!) she only used one relaxer to do it!!!
OK, now that I have oohed and aahed, I'll let you see the pics. They are in my fotki but I'll post some here too. She didn't rollerset or blowdry me, she liked the result so much we decided to keep it curly (it's pinned up, so you can't see the length yet).
My name is shaydufblu, and I am another Phyto convert. Phyto rocks!
