I texturized my hair a few days ago with Silk Elements Texturizer in regular strength. Application and processing time totaled about 13 minutes on my 4A/B hair. Upon washing and conditioning, it seemed much softer, easier to comb thru and with more obvious waves and curls. Well, I did a dry set (rollers on dry hair) and it came out pretty cute, like lightly pressed hair that had been curled. Then I tried to see what would happen if I attempted a wash & go. I conditioner washed it, combed it thru and put in IC Polisher Gel with Sparkle Lites and some IC Polish Drops with Aloe. Well, the outcome was an afro with absolutely no definition that looks almost just like my natural hair air-dried, only the shrinkage is not as pronounced and it feels slightly softer.
Did something go wrong? Because at this point, there is minimal difference between this and my totally natural hair. I mean, I feel like I could never re-apply a texturizer and it would all totally blend in. I don't know what to do. I want a looser pattern but I don't want to risk going too straight nor do I want to risk damage from re-applying a chemical over hair that has already been slightly processed. Help! Help! Help!
