:dollar: How do u know when your hair is done processing? WHAT SHOULD IT LOOK LIKE? I know that different people want different results from their relaxers. Do you want your hair to look the same way with the finished relaxer in it that u do when u wash it out? For example, if you want your hair to be bone straight, do u wait for the hair to look bone straight while the relaxer is still in it? Does anyone know? :dollar:
I am having a really difficult time finding an answer to this question. This is odd to me since so many people on this board self-relax. (This could partially be my fault. Maybe the original thread that I made wasnt catchy enough?) Anyway, I feel frustrated searching the internet for info on self-relaxing. This isnt smthg that I just wanna jump into. I want to be educated on it because these are harsh chemicals.
I can't find any books, article, nothing on how to self-relax except for Southerngirl's website (Thank you, Southerngirl!). Her site is very informative, but I still have questions because I don't want to ruin my hair at all.
TIA

I DO appreciate all of the help from my original post, but I am hoping that this one is clearer and that more people will respond.
