Here a couple of my pics of damp, texlaxed hair:
Your hair looks really nice and looks a little like mine.
What conditioners do you usually use and how do you style your hair. I am looking for new inspiration apart from direct heat.

Actually what you are doing is underprocessing your hair. I prefer to use lye relaxers and at the moment using Silk elements Lye relaxer. I started adding Silk Amino Acid to mine (I got the powder form), some add olive oil to the relaxer. I basically use a mild relaxer 15mins. I am 4b, so I wasn't expecting curls, but I get waves and it is more managable for me than when it was natural. It was easier for me to be texlax as I was natural for 3 years, so I was starting from scatch.

I'm sorry jade...I'm just now seeing your post. Thanks for the compliment. I cowash once/week with VO5 conditioner, and I DC every 8-9 weeks with Motions Moisture Plus Conditioner, during the relaxer touchup process. My complete hair regimen is in the "About Me" section of my fotki. For my hair styles, I have pics in my fotki; check out the "Hair Styles" and "How Is It Done?" albums.

Originally texturized, but I wanted bone straight. This is what my stylist gave me
The first picture is when my hair is wet, as it dries you see that the roots are straight and relaxed, the ends arent.

What is a corrective?
Aggie

The corrective I did on my hair was when I transitioned from using no-lye relaxers to lye relaxers. The way I did it was I relaxed my entire head of hair with the lye relaxer including the already relaxed hair so that my hair would behave a little differntly and absorb moisture better - it worked. There may be other ways to it but this is how I did mine.
Thanks, Aggie! I posted a reply to your question in your fotki guestbook.
