does anyone here know how to self relax and still get good results? i have used a no lye before and i dont have a problem with dryness (sp?), but my hair remains coily.
TIA
I do the 'half-half' method in that I relax the front first, wash it out, then relax the back. This means that each section gets equal relaxing time and it is very straight.
i think it may be the strength of relaxer i used. i used regular gentle treatment and let the relaxer stay in for the time limit for fine hair but i guess that aint working.
oh well i will try again in like 8 weeks. my friend has relaxed my hair with dark and lovely regular no lye and my hair came out fine. she just left it in much longer. ah well, ya live and u learn.
and lonei, ur method sounds really good i may try it. im just nervous.
