Relaxed texture question

[lilshama86]

Hi all,

I've been lurking for a couple months and I decided to really get serious about my hair. And instead of turning into a potential PJ (already bought a bunch of wen, jane carter, and keracare products...)I decided to get some real help from you ladies. So here's my question....

Even though I'm relaxed my hair is still VERY frizzy... its almost an afro but its a really soft texture and not coarse at all. I've stopped using direct heat and I've been trying to airdry but it always turns out really frizzy erplexed. I've seen some relaxed heads airdry with only a slightly frizzy hair. Is there a way to explain this strange texture or do y'all have any good tips for airdrying? TIA

Maybe you could try smoothing your hair down into a bun (after moisturizing and sealing with oil) while it is still wet and tie it down with a silk or satin scarf to smooth out the frizzies. I have a lot of texture too and that gets my hair smooth (although I still have waves)

HTH!

deep conditioning with a moisturizing conditioner and rinsing with cold water really helps smooth the cuticles. good luck and welcome.

Thank you for your replies! Are there any product recommendations?

Some moisturizing conditioners that i've used and like are mop extreme moisture, nexxus humectress, and honey suckle rose. Those are really great. You can just put some conditioner back in to air dry the hair.
