So I had to Stray from Silk Elements

[KhandiB]

I really liked the way it made my hair feel..
It underprocessed me and I left it in longer than specified on the instructions,

I did a bantu today and boy o boy... This will be my uno nuno relaxer

In the past it is the only relaxer I ever remember relaxing my hair totally straight. Application and smoothing only took 18 minutes and my hair is exactly how I like it

After I rinsed the relaxer out, I just CPR'd for 5 min, neutralized with Profectiv Mousse and Proclaim .. Now Im Conditioning with a mixture of SE Moisturizing Treatment and Motions Moisture Plus ..

Im very happy...

KhandiB,

Your hair always looks great! It has so much shine. Is that the Kemy Oyl that is giving it that shine? It is one of my staples, too, but my hair is brown-red with NO shine at all. I guess I have to dye it to get some gloss with the Kemi Oyl.

I am going to try ORS the next time I relax.

I am glad your hair turned out nicely.

Thanks Everybody for the comps on my boys

Candita - Yes it was my first time using it...

DAX - Usually just Kemi, but I use Garnier Fructis Sleek n Shine Serum and sometimes I use Fantasia IC Heat Protectant along with it. But just puttin the Kemi on myhair usually shines it up a bit!

I've used Bantu for years, (super strength) and loved it!! This was the only relaxer that I swore by for my thick hair to be nice and straight.
Glad you like it

Must be something wrong with me because Bantu has me texlaxed. I wonder what Silk E. will do for me. I gave up on the relaxing straight thing anyways, so I should be cool.

But Khandi, I am glad you are feelin' it again..

Khandi, I had the same problem with SE regular (used it twice) ...I have very thick, resistant hair too. Maybe I will give Bantu a try.

Use the one for coarse hair then (silk elements). That joint left my hair stick straight in a just a few min.! And my hair is usually left underprocessed by most lye relaxers. I have to use the regular next time b/c it's no joke!

I'll try SE for coarse hair my next touch up, because I actually like the way it makes my hair feel. It just was underprocessed.

No offense, Khandi, but I think this thread should be locked.
