Gentle relaxers
Ultrarich conditioners are mixed with straightening agents like ammonia to minimize damage while taming the natural wave. Though you'll still need to blow-dry hair to get it completely straight, it will take less time and effort.
Who has done it: Tyra Banks and Naomi Campbell at Lisa Mitchell Salon
Works best for: Untreated and minimally colored (highlights and single-process) African-American or Caucasian hair; it's too damaging for double-processed or permed hair.
How it works: the relaxing solution sits on the hair for 10 to 25 minutes before it's thoroughly rinsed out. A deep conditioner is applied, followed by a neutralizer.
How long it lasts: Three to six months. Unlike thermally reconditioned hair, relaxed hair will eventually revert to its natural wave.
