Hi Everyone,
Last night I couldnt take it,I had to tame the new growth and I was in a hurry to do it too. So I whip out the relaxer (Motion lye w/oil......the best!!!!) and I start relaxing. I didnt even base my scalp with vaseline. Ladies I felt like my head was on fire. I had the worst experience. I was halfway through my head when I started to feel the burning. I still went through the whole process stupidly taking the risk of loosing my hair. I finally got through it and the relaxer came out better than ever.I'm getting all kinds of compliments and stares today (if only they knew what I went through......lol) and my hair grew so I'm about 3 1/2 inches from bra strap length.
I will never relax without baseing my scalp again,I dont know what I was thinking. Anyway this morning when I started to style my hair I could feel some scabs on the scalp and a little bit of white cakey stuff on some parts of my hair. My guess is something was not rinsed out properly,anyway I'm going to rinse everyday until its gone. Has this happened to anyone before? Was there any hair loss because of it? and should I do something to prevent hair loss? I'm terrified I may have damaged my hair follicles and maybe I might have a disaster over the next few days. This happened several times before when I was younger and I never lost my hair but I want to be pro active.
