RELAXING TONIGHT!!!(NOW WITH PICS!!!)

I only started this thread to say im finally relaxing tonnnnnniiiiight ohhh makes me so EXCITED!! Im a little anxious to see if im gonna be happy with the results, but even if i end up texlaxed i dont caaaare cuz i just miss my own little hair.

I BCd in feb last year and been wearing weaves for the past year. I trimmed a little(maybe 2 or 3times) inbetween some installs. My mommy is relaxing for me(she been doing her own for YEARS)

Oh and i wanna give a shout out to ALL the natural heads up in here.. i been natural for only a week and i found it haaaard, was struggling and all...i finally braided it and left it alone under my scarf for the past 3days. I TRULY respect you guys for being so patient with it!
:woohoo:

ETA:

So its all done... going on 3 in the morning LOL, i am BEAT
My ends are overprocessed when i did the cut months ago some relaxed inches were left and the relaxer got to it that will only make it harder for me to retain lenght now...

Also.. i discovered that i CANNOT take hair picture to save my life!!! LOL must be my tiredness... but i ended up having 2 ''postable'' pics.. ok the second one not so much bwahaha
Excuse the real dutty mirror!

LMAO...you have no idea how funny this is to me because I can relate soooooo much My mom just did my first "home perm" in years a few weeks ago. Usually go to the salon, but trying to texlax now so I'm done there. Anyway, Mom was helping me with my perm and we were trying to do it in 2 sections. I was yelling at her to smooth and not get water on the other section when rinsing, and she was yelling back, and water was all over the kitchen. It was tooo funny. My shirt was completely soaked in the end, and my mom thought I was nuts for the pre-neutralizing conditioner step. The whole thing was crazy, but actually went well. I'll let her do it again, but thank GOD that won't be for awhile

She used profectiv(I picked it).. its a good relaxer BUT i only used the relaxer and the mousse(its not a neutralizing shampoo.. its a neutralizing MOUSSE thingy! i love it) did not use the dc and leave in that came with it, i wasnt so sure about them... its good but i think ill go back to the ORS for my touch up.

Thanks for the compliments ladies. im happy with it (oh and my SO loooooves it) but i do have over processed ends(frizzy) gotta up the moisture game like crazy!!!
