Newbie with a few questions

[Mum2L]

I've been lurking for a while but decided to subscribe today. I've learnt so much already from reading the posts. But am racking my brain to know what co washing and texturlaxing means. Can someone enlighten me?

Co- washing is when
you wash your hair with
only conditioner...

Are you asking what telaxing is?

Welcome to LHCF!!

Cowashing - is conditioner washing. It's literally just washing your hair with conditioner.

I think you meant texlaxing? - I believe it's using a chemical to losen the curl pattern a little. I think some use a normal relaxer but leave it in for a shorter time ... just enough for it to loosen the curl pattern, but not enough to make it completely straight.
