Relaxed Hair Thread

My braids are officially out and I still have not ordered my relaxer yet. I'll def need to order it this week, if I want to relax in Jan. I cannot wait to relax my hair. I have been dreaming about having straight roots the whole time I was in braids.

I'm also questioning the T word
My workout frequency has gone down significantly because I'm trying to maintain these blowouts and race season is coming up next spring , what will I do for a half marathon?Lol my roots can't stay straight for a half haha hayle nah
I feel like relaxed hair is much better for daily running and working out. I don't know what I'm gonna do I'm so frustrated

SuchaLady, I thought about transitioning when my hair was akkking all kinds of funky. The recent relaxer reset my clock and I'm all good with being relaxed.

Saludable84 well I use cassia sometimes, is that alright? I just don't want to get that red tinge that I know henna can give. And it's hard not to stress out about my sides lol. I see so many ladies here with even length hair and I for the life of me can't understand why my side hair is so slow and picky Lilmama1011 Well I've been trying to up my moisture game up so hopefully I'll bounce back to "normal" in a couple of weeks.

I love cassia. Mixed it with yogurt from time to time with good results. I know the pain of growing out sides but Sista With Real Hair has a video on that and her sides never catch up. I have the same issue. I just let them do their thang as long as they are healthy. As your hair gets longer, you will probably worry about it less.

Thinking about doing henna once a month. I like the color it gives plus the strength etc. Just have to figure out how to balance it with moisture cuz I know it can dry the holy crap outta ya hair.

Sometimes I have to do a search for long haired relaxed ladies, because every time I see someone with long hair, they tell me that they're natural. I need motivation lol. Gonna look on YouTube.

Just treat henna like protein. That's all. I did that and it worked well. Couldn't do it weekly, only monthly.

Getting my hair relaxed again after being natural for close to 4 yrs....question....i did a hard protein treatment 1 wk before the relaxer ....When I get the relaxer after rinsing it out should I do the apogee 2 min reconstructor..or just wait a week after relaxing?

Since its the two minutes it shouldn't hurt. If it was harder, Id say no.

I'd still do the 2 minute. Can't have too much protein as a newly relaxed head IMO. Anywho, welcome :bighug: !!! NGraceO
