Relaxed Hair Thread

How are you ladies feeling about Mizani butter blends? I used to like it, It definitely left alot more texture in my hair than design essentials which I don't mind. I remember that it was super gentle? Is it?
 
I cut on airdried hair. I butchered it. *tear*. Made an appt this week to get it fix.

Thinking of switching from ors to affirm or phyto. ors leaves me underprocessed no matter how much smoothing I do *le sigh*

ORS is a no-no. Affirm as well. Phyto is expensive but I hear phase I is good. When I was bone straight only no lye relaxers worked for me.

I loved it until I tried Linange. Left alit texture. Mixture works great when you don't over process.

BOL!!!! LMBO!!!!! ROTHFL!!!!! Guuurl Im sure you said what most relaxed heads be thinking but never say! My lil cousin overheard a natural woman trying to convince me to go natural in the mall & she turned around & yell, 'NOT ERRRRBODY WANNA WEAR PUBIC HURRS ON DEY HEAD!'

LMBO!!!!!!! I just died!!!

:lachen::lachen::lachen:DEADING at the bolded. I'm late to the party but i sure am enjoying the chat. I'm looking to go back to relaxed hair because i cannot for the life of me handle these SSK I also have a more polished look with relaxed hair and so now after almost 4 years NATURAL i'm going back to the creamy crack in December and i'm looking forward to it because i have a large support group here of beautiful relaxed heads.

Well the luxury of this thread is that you have so many of us doing different techniques and not everyone processed the same. I'm sure there is someone in here (many actually) who will help you along the way if you do make the decision.
 
Dont shoot me but..................











I secretly love when naturals rerelax :look:

:grin::grin: you are naughty!

I really wanted to see what it is on the flip side and my hair has grown alot since my decision to go natural but i realise as my hair get longer i have having a bit of difficulty especially styling. I've only worn it out 5 times in the 41 months i've been natural. I hate styling my hair, my Bantu Knots flop, as i straighten a section it poofs and reverts so it's not working out for me. I have lived in wigs and weaves and i'm tired of that look as it ages me.

Now that i have seen and experienced my hair in its natural state i hope going back to the relaxers will see me trying new styles and taking less time to wash and detangle.
 
This is kind of a random question but do you guys get a runny nose and experience sneezing after airdrying. I've been noticing this pattern with me and I was wondering if it's normal.

I don't, but I can see how it's possible especially if your hair takes a while to dry.

KhandiB your hair looks boss!

OAN thanks for the input ladies, I'm going back to Mizani Butter blends. I know it's a little more work with texture left in my hair but I love the body I get from it.
 
sweetnikki_6 I use butter blends too and the latest container I bought said that it had 'improved straightening'. I had also felt that it left me underprocessed and I was going to stray. I used this improved version last relaxer and it came out great BUT I also left it on for about 30 minutes (which I am NOT recommending).
 
@sweetnikki_6 pretty much bone straight:yep: I don't go for texture:ohwell: There were 2 underprocessed spots ( I guess from lack of smoothing) that I will be double processing next relaxer for sure:look:

ETA: KhandiB I had to go on my phone to check our pic....you look amazing, hair and everything:yep:
