I plan to relax on Sunday, I want to find a relaxer that works that I can buy at the store. So far Ive tried Optimum and ORS. Any suggestions on a good relaxer??

LexiDior I have been self-relaxing for years and the best one for me is Linange Shea Butter Relaxer. I get it online!

I keep hearing great things about Linange Shea Butter on LHCF...I have used Mizani BB for a while but I'm not married to it. I think my next touch-up in July/August is going to be Linange. Thanks for the info.
 
My hair does not like Shea butter, olive oil or any "natural" product except for Shea moisture retention shampoo. My hair LOVES cones and glycerin..I'm thinking I need to totally revamp my regimen
 
I can use Nexuss Emergencee every 3 weeks and be fine. I love that stuff. I've used it weekly before after I've gotten a relaxer to give my hair some much added strength. I always follow up with a moisturizing conditioner used with heat 15 minutes. I started washing in sections and I apply my conditioner to the sections, this way my Emergencee is thoroughly applied from root to tip. I love this stuff. I hope they never stop making it.

I wash in sections, I will usually use 4 hair claws/clamp thingys. My hair is kinda bone straight so sometimes when I twist it will unravel.
 
Anyone ever use protein and rinse on the same day? I'm thinking of doing it, but I don't want hard hair either.

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together

If you mean tea rinse, I found that rinsing after a poo or conditioner gives me protein overload. In conjunction with my brahmi prepoo and conditioner on hair shaft has given me the best results. I don't know about a protein conditioner though.
 
ive DC'D x2 this week and my hair is doing great with it. i used SD vanilla silk both times but today i added Wen 613 and raw honey:lick:

Even though I had to cut a few inches in January due to a setback, my hair has been growing like a weed since then, to the point where others comment on it. I think God answered my prayer to increase my hair growth since I was so depressed about having to cut in the first place :lol:

It's been a 1.5 years since I decided to relax my hair again and I still don't regret it, I'm enjoying my relaxed hair and plan to grow it as long as possible :yep:

Raspberry, Hey lady! Where have you been? Why aren't you posting in the Relaxer Hair Buddy thread? Come and hang out with us or maybe I need to hang out more here.:yep:

I'm glad you're enjoying your relaxed hair. I'm enjoying my newly relaxed hair as well, even though its under wigs 5-6 days per week.
 
Finally got a aphogee 2 min reconstructor sample and a two step with the balancing conditioner sample to see if I like it.
 
I finally found me some Roux Porosity Control after searching for 2 weeks. Apparently, its on back order. All I know is... This stuff is like gold right now.

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together
 
I forgot how much I love washing my hair for the first 8 weeks following a relaxer.

No long detangling sessions, no having to tiptoe through your new growth...I love it!
 
Aphogee 2 minute reconstructor is a keeper. I will purchase the full size bottle in a couple of weeks. Shame on me for not trying this out a lot sooner
 
I want to just start praising since I have relaxed my hair now. It feels so good and smooth. I cut my ends a very on the spur thing while at work. My ends feel awesome now. I am thinking of missing church today so I can dc with heat and do another color rinse on my hair as I just don't want to rush today.

Yes!

I'm going outside in the heat to workout and I look forward to washing my hair. No detangling spray, no being super extra delicate around your newgrowth, just wash, comb, and airdry. Hair life is so awesome at 3 weeks post. :yep:
 
I purchased mane n tail the original conditioner I cowashed with it mixed with castor oil and argan oil I can finally say I found something that really softens my new growth like overall my hair feels amazing Im so happy lol
 
hello Ladies,

I am very new to this forum. I have been relaxed since I was about 5 years old and I plan on relaxing forever. I am also new to this hair journey process. My hiar is BSL almost at Bra strap length. I'm excited to be here and learn about making my hair longer and stronger.

I have lots of shedding I've always had shedding. I've been reading up on what would help that.

I just began sealing before bed and bunning hopefully I willl have strong results soon.
 
this no heat challenge is killing me. it's getting to summer time, i'm always sweating during workouts. after my wash and style, my hair is a poofy mess. i have a good 1/2 of growth in 3 weeks.

time to pull out the hot comb for my roots?
