The TRUTH About Hair Relaxers

- čas přidán 2. 07. 2024
- Hey GlamFam! So I get questions about hair all the time, but one of th things that I see common misconceptions about is relaxers. They get a bad wrap, and I can see why, but part of the damage done is due to them being done incorrectly. I commonly see people doing relaxers too frequently, selecting the wrong strength of relaxers, not properly basing the scalp, leaving the relaxer on too long, among a plethora of other issues and misconceptions.
This video is to help dispel the myths, give proper information, and ensure that people have healthier hair as a result. If you found this video to be informative or helpful, please let me know in the comment box below!
Be blessed, stay Glam, have a wonderful day, and you know I love you boo!

I'm so glad hair professionals are making their mark on CZcams. There are so many random people doing hair videos giving bad advice. It would be good for everyone if CZcams did something to incentivize licensed/working professionals across all fields to make video content.
+Amina Melancon I totally agree, especially with some of these hair challenges and such! CZcams could definitely use more skilled professionals sharing.
Did you see the young lady that did the video using mud to define a curl pattern? I couldn't believe it.
Sincere what's wrong with that? Genuinely asking because I've used Aztec clay mud to get rid of build up and it did define my curls. Of course I've realized shampoo probably does the same for cheaper but at the time thats all I had home and thought why not.
Jasmine Valiente : It wasn't so much wrong as different or unheard of to me .... At that time. Hoping that answers u
I agree with what you said here
EXACTLY! say it with us......relaxer is meant to RELAX the curl NOT REMOVE the curl!!!!!!
+Aeija Blu AMEN!
I know right!!!
I just learned this today. I ended up over-processing my hair because I thought it was supposed to be straight
“If you remove all of the curl, you have removed all of the hairs strength” 🙌🏾
How do you not have more followers. This channel is the bible for hair. Thanks for this video, I am a mother of 3 girls. I need this!!!
Priscilla George I agree!!
Priscilla George indeed! I also want to know.
Priscilla George i wondered the same thing...i loveee this channel
Thank you all! I’m am thankful for the growth we do see daily, it’s definitely a blessing! Thank you all so much for your support!
Thanks !so informational! Pls continue to make these videos
Damn so Informative 🧐.. Where I'm from (South Africa) "Beauty is Suffered for" , "the relaxer is ready to be washed off only when it begins to burn" and being uneducated about our own African hair after apartheid oppression is normal 😣😓... Your videos are changing lives ✨🌼
czcams.com/video/ta4q4Y_-VM0/video.html
Look
I use petroleum to protect my scalp, use coconut oil on the already relaxed hair before applying a touch up, I stretch for 16 weeks minimum, and only leave the relaxer on for 5-7 minutes - I'm not a hair stylist but I feel like this is all common sense... I'm so shocked to hear some people do it every 4wks and re-relax the ends that were already relaxed. Yikes.
LolaW don’t forget your application time that needs to be factored in
@@mtchar9312 I do the same as TMPH. I use texturizer (but whatever) lol. My application and processing time is a total of 4 minutes. And my hair is short so I can do that. Any longer and my pattern will loosen a lot and I Definately don't want that. Really the texturizer removes my frizz i guess because that's the only changes I see. AND I have about 4 different textures on my hair. I have to time and apply correctly
Very good information about the hair Thanks
Very good information about the hair thanks
When i was relaxed, i used to retouch or relax as people call it twice a year so every 6 months and my hair was doing just fine.
Yes, finally someone who gets the purpose of a relaxer! I always used to put relaxers on my hair religiously (Every 6 months), before I let my hair go natural in 2013, and my purpose was to relax my kinky curly 3c-4b pattern in the root of my hair. Due to the hard process of detangling my hair and frizz, I put relaxers on my root because it helped a ton with shrinkage and a whole load of other thing's. As someone who has learned to deal with my own natural state of my hair now, I would never sit here and bash relaxers, because relaxers helped me when I didn’t know how to manage my hair before 2013. Thank you for explaining what the real purpose of relaxers are for😆 BTW I love your channel and have learned a lot from your tutorials and informative video's. Keep up the great work!
+Nicole J my pleasure dear ! It is definitely my desire to help educate and share my knowledge with others, it’s the only way we get better! 😊
The kiddie relaxer...there's a child's face on the box.......crickets!!! Lol. Thank you for explaining "No base". Not a curl Remover! I would think pulling the relaxer all the way through is over processing &;Jesus....more than 6 wks. W/o, as soon as a cm of new growth shows seems to be a sin.
THANK YOU FOR PROPER EDUCATION! #TEAMGLAM
+S T my absolute pleasure! Thank you so much for watching!
I been telling my clients this for 30 yrs
Dude, you know your stuff! I stopped relaxing my hair and my kids 12 years ago, that burn, ouch!
+Jomi Bleau that burn is no joke!
Jomi Bleau did someone say ouch?
If you’re feeling burn, you’re doing it wrong.
I’ve been getting my hair relaxed for about 2 years now. Once every 4/5 months. I personally don’t like my curly hair. Get it professionally done and take great care of your hair afterwards. I’ve never felt that burn.
Seven7as the “professionals” severally burnt my scalp, and use an intense among of heat... a lot of people that are considered professional don’t know wtf they r doing ya know
@@seven7asable I remember getting heat damage a few years ago (as a kid) when my mom put relaxer in my hair. It was awful and I don't know what happened to my hair, but it felt thinner. I still put relaxers in my hair (even though I'm planning on going natural), but it was a really scary experience.
Disulfide bonds! Converts to lanthanide bond! You go boy!!! I have my biology and nursing degrees! So I hear you! You are on point!!
Thanks so much! I’m big into educating, so I try to share as much as possible 💜 thanks so much for watching!
I am soooo glad I found your channel. You give great advice, educate us and all while keeping it 100%. Thank you for this!
Always getting some really good info on hair care on this channel.
Linwood, you da best
I got my hair relaxed about 3 months ago and to be honest I don't regret it and I hope I won't later. I didn't let d relaxer stay more than 5 minutes on my head and I won't be relaxing until at least every six months. My cousin started relaxing her hair 2016 after going natural for about 4 years and believe me her hair has grew really longer than before and more healthy. I have asked her how she cares for her hair. She said she doesn't use heat frequently and massages d hair alot with avocado oil and coconut oil, castor oil and most importantly she relax every 6 months or even more. There is so much more she does but can't start typing it lol but I do know she really do take care of her hair alot. Wish me luck and if this relaxer doesn't work for me, am not afraid to start from the beginning again.
How did your relaxer go?
Young man, you know your chemistry 🙏🏾 thank you.
You broke this down so well, thank you. 👏👏👏. I'm sure many viewers were grateful for this knowledge.
Great amount of crucial relaxed hair information. Thank you so much! And the bonus? You are a wonderful presenter.
This is why I am so Happy that I came across your video. Very informative. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos and keeping us up to date on how to properly care for our hair. ❤❤
+Nicole Barnes my absolute pleasure dear! I’m happy to help!
Thank you thank you thank you! I started relaxing my hair when I was 14 until I was 53 until illness made my hair fall out. I decided to go natural once the illness was under control and I now have healthy hair within the confines of my medications. I'm not judging anyone who uses relaxers but for me personally, I will never relax or dye my hair ever again. I'm grey and loving it!!! Thank you for all you do on this channel. Blessings x
+Fay Samuel totally understandable and I am so glad you are well! 🙌🏽
I'm a new subscriber so Im binge watching your videos. I'm relaxed and I appreciate how informative and unbiased this video was.
Glam Fairy you are❤️
I've been following you since before I was in school for hair and I'm there now... I've watched this video multiple times, but going over it again now everything makes so much sense. You have always helped explain things so well. You are such a great teacher!
Thank you for being so real. I am learning so much from you! I can tell how genuine and how much passion you have for this industry. We need more hair professionals like you. God bless you and your beautiful family.
Thank you so very much! I appreciate that more than you know! Be blessed and thank you for watching, as well as for your feedback!
This was great information. I've been relaxed for years and I found this super helpful. Thank you!
Such a pleasure dear! Thanks for watching!
I love watching your channel. It’s very informative. I am a licensed cosmetology teacher and you give great information about hair. I love how you broke down how the structure of the hair changes during the relaxing process.
Thank you so much for that information on relaxers. So glad I found your page earlier this year, it's ben quite informative, helpful and fun. Peace and blessings to you and your beautiful family.
I am natural, but I wish I knew you when I was relaxing my hair . You are a wealth of knowledge and of saved me a lot of pain and heartache .
One of the BEST hair videos I've seen yet. Thank U and God bless.
Thanks so much! 😊
This is the best video I've ever seen in my life! So often people think they know so many things about hair, and they really don't. I love the details about how the hair chemical bonds are changed, and I love the fact that you felt like just because we may be lay people we wouldn't understand. Let's give out the information and have people be informed about their hair, so thank you.
Thank you so much for putting some clarity around this very important subject, and helping people understand that they really should entrust their chemical work to the professionals, for all of the reasons that you succinctly spelled out. Thumbs up on being short, sweet and to the point!
Thanks for not bashing us relaxed haired sisters. Very informative, and amazingly executed ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the caffeine tip. Never heard that before.
Your information and your delivery is on point. I’m 63 and found out I was dumb as hell about this stuff. Thank you young man.
Great video! It’s always good to learn new tips for healthy hair growing.Thank you!
Class is in session! Thanks for the lessons. I’m a relaxer client and am grateful for these handy tips!!!
+Michelle Hamilton my pleasure! I’m so happy to help! Thanks for watching love!
Can't understand why someone would thumbsdown this video. This is so informative and helpful. Take care and have a blessed day! Thanks for the info👍👍
Re Giss, I was wondering the same thing. Probably someone who is butt-hurt.
Nikki Royal Exactly. You know, there are people are there that's just unhappy and like to spread their misery unto others.😊
+ReGiss . #SaltyFolk lol
ReGiss cause the hairstylist makes money thru perms /relaxers liquid gold that's their jackpot
RG people hate when they watch someone more educated than they are or that says something they don’t like. Its just so ridiculous
Amazing! Thanks for setting it STR8!The follicles suffer for lack of knowledge!
YOU ARE SO KNOWLEDGEABLE AND YOU PRESENT INFORMATION AND EXPLAIN IT EXCEPTIONALLY WELL!!
I so love u lol.. It's a child's face... You're welcome.
Mokakes Yes!!!!! He is so awesome!!!! He's like the brother I wish I had.
+pier tolliver Lol thank you! I’m sure I’d be an annoying sibling though! Lol
Oh wow 😮. Thank you so much. I’m one of those people who thinks it’s not working unless it burns a little, but I knew better. Now I know what is actually happening to my hair when I do that, no more burn for me. When you know better you do better. Thank you again.
blkstang46 I'm a covert, I used to believe it needed to burn a little. I no longer relax
I am loving this upload schedule! Love watching your channel grow. Great vid as always
+KaiamaraLove thank you so very much!
Thank you for making this video. I believe there is so much misconception about relaxers and you're educating people with the facts. Once again, thanks. 💙
Yes, I had healthy relaxed hair. I stretched every 6 months. I wish my natural hair was as healthy. I'm still learning about how to care for my natural hair. This video is very informative. Thank you!
it was very Informative I am texlaxed with waist length hair. and do touch ups at about 3-4 months
+KidneyGirl91 glad to help provide information out here! 😊
Someone posted this video in one of my healthy hair FB groups. Very informative! Thank you!!
Oh cool! What’s the name of the group? Thanks so much for watching!
Best info I have ever heard on relaxers. You really know your stuff. Keep doing your fabulous tutorials.
+Lisa Pyles thank you dear!
Thank you!!!! I am natural right now, but am going back to my relaxer. Keep getting fussed at about the damage it will do, but my hair was very healthy with my relaxer and was never dry like now with me being natural. I loved my wraps and will happily apply a relaxer. Just subscribed.
This information was was gold. I love that you take time to educate ppl on hair care instead of "just styling."
In hair school my instructor used to call calcium hydroxide relaxers the "no lye" lie. I agree with relaxer getting a bad rap. Mainly because they are being applied incorrectly. For my relaxed clients and myself. I've always used a mild "lye" relaxer. I've always found that I had beautiful results without that "hard" calcium buildup on the hair. I don't recommend ppl doing relaxers themselves because it's hard to see overlapping, especially in the back. One tip I would like to add if you don't mind. Someone taught me to add a heavy conditioner to the length on the relaxed hair before doing a touch up. This doesn't completely stop the damage if overlapping happens, but it buys a few minutes to get to the sink if a small amount is accidentally overlapped.
Lastly, would you please do a video on relaxing, snatching edges in tight braid, adding tight weaves to small children? I see so many kids with no edges or over-processed/heat damaged hair at such young ages.
Keep the vids coming!
thank you for the info!!!! please keep em coming, my girls and I love your channel!!!!
You made it plain, simple and to the point. Don't change a thing and thank you so much for sharing. Stay Glam!!!!
+kekeal thank you so much!
So glad I found your channel at a time when I am starting a healthy relaxed hair journey
Wonderful! I truly hope the videos help!
There's nothing healthy about RELAXERS.
Thank you so much for the info. This needs a million likes.
+Thea Goines aww thank you! My pleasure dear!
Love how ur so up front and tell the truth on the relaxer products I’ve learnt a lot from this video
Thank you, it is truly my pleasure!
So much good information. You touched on a lot of important things people don’t know about.
Love you! It's blowing my mind the extent that companies with use to trick customers. Your knowledge is power! Ty for sharing.
+tranquility aww thank you! Love you too!
I just watched this video in my cosmetology class and I thought it was really informative and my whole class enjoyed your video especially me and my friend henli btw she said you seem very nice anyways thank you for reading my comment❤🤗
This was very informative. I haven’t had a perm in over 8 years and I continue to take care of it by deep conditioning and a healthy lifestyle. I love your videos hun.
+Bridgette Cotton Thank you so much!
Your videos are always informative so please keep doing them!
Totally took me back to Betty Steven’s School of Cosmetology here in Florence SC. I love learning about hair. I love everything about hair.
+Ruth Foxe awesome! Thank you so much for watching!
Hello Ruth, I'm from Florence!
Good old Betty Steven’s
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 O-M-G You Are Amazing 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Finally a licensed professional speaking the truth about hair care and actually being honest about relaxers. I’m natural (my last relaxer was more than a decade ago), but I love the science of black hair in general and learning ways to get my hair in its healthiest state possible. Find it fascinating. There is so much conjecture and division about black haircare, so it’s refreshing to find your channel. I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to find you, but I’m so glad I have. New subbie. 🤩😍🤩
Thank you so very much dear! I greatly appreciate you and I am so glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you kindly for watching and commenting! Many blessings!
GlamFam thank you for your gracious response. It’s my day off and I’ve been binge watching you and your beautiful family all morning while doing my hair, here in the UK. Learnt so much more already. My healthy hair journey (I went natural after a bad chemical burn on my mid back length relaxed hair at a salon) has just been given an extra boost, thanks to you. You and Alison are hilarious in your chit chats btw. Love you both 😘😍😘
I am ever so grateful for that! It gives me joy to know that my videos are helping people! Thank you ever so much for your feedback, it is appreciated more than you know!
This video makes so much sense, all of the relaxer videos I've seen involve bone straight hair and they think that's what is supposed to look like. I need to show this to all relaxed people in my family, hair is bone straight, short and damaged.
Thank you for making this video! I am so sick of being bullied by natural haired ladies trying to make us feel bad. I go to a professional to have no relaxers done and have had nothing but great results.
I used to get relaxers every 3 weeks for years, and my stylist would always cut my hair, which left me wondering why my hair stayed the same length. It didn't start growing until I moved to a new location. And I always grew up thinking the burn was normal. Ever though my mom would tell me to let the stylist know when there was just a slight itch, I powered through the pain anyways. I stopped getting relaxers 8 years ago, when a bad relaxer experience(with someone else) took most of my nape area out. I still struggle with severe self-inflicted heat damage, but I will never go back.
Thank you for giving this scientific information in a basic "viewer friendly" format. Please consider doing a series on natural hair; particularly kinkier, tighter curl patterns. While every head of hair is unique, "generic" information on the following would be very helpful: wash day routines, protective styles, how to deal with multiple textures on one head, regrowing damaged or missing edges, tips for retaining length, etc. If you have any clients with 4b/4c hair that would be willing to come on camera as "examples", that would be awesome! The Glamily thanks you in advance😃
+Cece B sure thing! Let me see what I can manage to put together 😊
This is the best informative video I have ever experienced! I have truly learned a lot. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks so much! It’s my pleasure 😊💚
Thanks a million for all this info, it was not too much it was just what I needed to hear and I am sure others as well, because you covered it all.
Thanks so much! I’m glad you found it helpful!
love the scientific aspect of this video 🙌
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Took me back to high school science..lol Hair can be so complicated😩. I haven't had a perm in years, but after watching this video I realized I had some bad perms as a kid and in college (experimenting). ❤ your videos!!
This is one of the best and most informative videos on relaxers. I've always been under the assumption that the kids version was healthier or safer, yet when I used them, I found that the neutralising shampoo took ages to go from pink to white, as if my hair wasn't being neutralised are all. Now I know why.
great information. I no longer relax, but this is still great information.Thanks for the healthy hair education
"Only difference is there's a child face on the box." 💀💀💀
😂& then he was like🙂u welcome...
Thank y’all for watching!
I am listening to this and it seems like common sense to follow the proper guidance given, and to take the up most care to the hair after using chemicals. It makes me so glad that my mom knew what she was doing. I grew up doing all that and more to protect my hair and scalp when relaxing, so it seems so strange to me that people are not following that (but then again I had very sensitive skin and eczema, along with severely dry hair - so she was always very cautious with what we used and how). Though I am so glad you spoke about the kiddie vs adult relaxer situation as I found the kiddie ones I had tried, did my hair so much damage and so I stopped relaxing. However, I couldn't manage my scalp condition well with the density of my hair as it didn't allow my scalp to breath, so I went back to relaxing but using a gentle ADULT one, and went on to have the best hair health ever when using a relaxer.
A lot of it seems like common sense to me to, but it isn’t for everyone, unfortunately I get asked these questions nonstop 😩
@@GetGlamFam Thanks for replying 😁. It's good you addressed it though, cause those simple changes will make the difference between damage to their scalp and hair loss/breakage to having relatively good hair health.
This was one of the most informative videos I have seen!
This video was so informative video on relaxers I've seen, I'm teaching a cosmetology class and I thoroughly enjoyed this video and will be sending it to the class as reference .
I am in agreement with everything you said, I have not relaxed my hair in about 10 years, I love being natural and wearing protective styles, great info, thank you🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾😀#Glamtober #GlamFam
+Beauty by Jay Morris amen! I love protective styles!
Whomp “unleash?” Is that what you call “spreading ignorance? Looks to be the case.
Like I said again, closed minded. The only thing you have effectively unleashed, actually “exposed” would be more appropriate is your hatred
Very, very informative..... Btw can u do a video demonstrating the correct relaxer process on virgin hair and retouch??? Thanks
+Simone Mark I’ll do my best!
Thank You!!!!!!!! We have been so brainwashed!! No one has ever explained in detail what you are now!! Excellent topic!!
You got this tone! I let you explain amything to me! I feel zen and informed! Thank you!
very informative, thanks!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
3 big chops and I’m feeling like going back to texturizers- very gentle loosening of curls. I just want less shrinkage and easier detangling. And maybe after 3 big chops I can stop trying to be team natural- so over it. Not for everybody lol
I totally understand, everyone doesn’t go natural for the same reasons, and you have to do what you feel would work best for you 😊❤️
Choose unhealthy ways over healthy ones. It's your life.
@@quartzzhuit no need to be rude
Thank you for the content in your video it was incredible!! I’ve been doing my research on the long term damage & balding of people who use too much relaxer & don’t give there natural hair time to breathe & recover from all the processing.
You’re so a valuable source of information for me as a hairstylist 🥰❤️
Good talk I am happy I am natural now. My hair is healthy and full love it.
+Stacy De Souza ❤️❤️ love it’
Haven't had a perm in years. Been thinking about getting one. because my hair is full and real thick.Happy I tuned in to you to know the difference between perms.
+Ann Crane glad to help sort it all out!
Did you get one?
Same...even started a natural hair channel! #nomoreperms
Go teacher! This is by far the best explanation to date
You are amazingly informative. I will definitely be subscribing. Honestly and not to sound any way shady or anything. I think you've been the most accurate and factorial you tuber I've had the pleasure of listening to. I will be on your page more often. I'm not relaxed or texturized etc... But you have a lot of incite on the do and don't and the which and whats. Thank you for the information and common sense.
Soooo informative! Not long enough!
Questions: what is the difference between heat damaged and "trained" hair?
Is hair length a game of genetics?
kimberly sawyer the length of hair can be impacted by genetics to a degree, although for most it’s a game of haircare. Honestly, “heat training” is a nice term for heat damage. It just sounds more gentle 😊
Very informative thank you
+Leslie Dawkins you are so welcome!
Thanks I just learned some stuff that I did not know about, always eager to learn new stuff!
A good lesson on the creamy crack. All jokes aside, I love that I'm leaning something new everyday and by a licensed professional. I appreciate that you're educating us with knowledge and experience. tfs
+Tunisia Rawles I’m so happy to help! Thanks for watching!
THANK YOU! ugh, I stopped going to my hairstylist because she was touching up my hair WAY too frequently (like every three weeks -_-). AND, she was not basing my scalp. I started doing my own hair for that reason (in addition to it being too expensive). I base my scalp EVERY TIME I relax my hair. It is also good to know that just because it says "sensitive scalp" does not mean anything. As I mentioned before, I touch up my hair once every 1-2 months. I'm definitely going to stretch that time frame out more. I don't think it is necessary for me to touch up my hair once every 1-2 months. I went back and read the "Mizani Butter Blend relaxer" kit (medium/normal strength) that I use and it has Sodium Hydroxide in it. I definitely will be deep conditioning my hair and using a more intense shampoo to get rid of the build up. As far as a deep conditioners go, what product do you recommend? I have a "medium" curl pattern. Does it matter what deep conditioning product you use for your curl pattern? Would you recommend deep conditioning once a week or once every two weeks for chemically treated hair?
+Jamie Smith I would typically recommend deep conditioning with moisture regularly and adding protein once every month to month and a half, in most instances. I have several favorites, Framesi makes an excellent moisture masque for the hair as well.
+Jamie Smith oh and LAWD 3 weeks?! That is the spirit and lifestyle of too murch! Lol
GlamFam yes she was doing THE MOST! very sweet lady, just doing a lil too much for me. Plus she really was trying to sell me on doing finger waves in my head and I am anti-gel lol I had a mini panic attack in her chair 😂
Lynnwood this is SO informative, thanks! Even though it's been over twenty-five years since I've gotten my one and only relaxer this information is just something I think we all NEED to know. Is there any truth to relaxers being harmful for pregnant women or is that just a myth?
+nvrnakednails1 thanks! Any chemical can be harmful to pregnant women, especially since relaxers and haircolor both have a certain degree of ammonia in them, among other chemicals such as sodium hydroxide, monoethanolamine, and an abundant list of others. 😊
As always, very through and completly understandable. You always give extra information that is much needed and I so appreciate that. Please keep being tge awesome Teacher and instructor that you are in your own uniqueness and the gift that God has given you. I learned something new from this video today. Thank you.🥰
I love this information...not over some...ppl need to know. Thank you very much!
+Marcia Chase thanks! My pleasure!
Great video. I have yet to find a stylist that does not relax the hair bone straight or close to it. I always thought that meant my hair was under processed and the relaxer didn't "take." don't trust myself to self relax at home either.
I totally understand! It’s a common misconception in the industry
Okay when relaxers first got popular they were made to solve all your problems. you were suppose to take the hair as straight as possible. Reason why was because at that time people were not putting direct heat on the hair . They were roller setting using setting lotion and sitting you under the dryer we didn't have blow dryers, and the hot marcel irons were only used on pressed natural hair and that's it, so the hair had to be bone straight at that time other wise it did not turn out good. I remember doing those relaxers in the 1960's and that was the idea behind them.
You can be a natural and wear your hair bone straight. Best of both worlds! Pls subscribe to my channel.
Great and simple video, is love to see one with the truth about blowouts! It seems like the process changes and I'm wondering if it's different if you are natural vs relaxed
I've also noted the Dominican blowout some say is too much heat for natural hair or they've had a relaxer mixed with the shampoo! 😩
+Georgina Opoku usually it’s not relaxer mixed with shampoo, it’s just a very large amount of heat and it permanently damages the hair. Unfortunately, too much heat breaks the same bonds in the hair that a relaxer does.
This actually explained everything for me....6 years too late but now I know for future reference for my daughter. Very informative, thank you.
+Catty Tomfoolery I’m glad I could help in any capacity!
This is a wonderful video!!!!! I knew most of it but picked up new points as well.
Go relaxers! Team relaxers!😂😂 This video was so informative, ty!
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching!
My foolproof no burn system was wash to wash my hair a week before my appointment. The next next day I base my scalp with anti inflammatory cream. Then once more that week, and then the night before my relaxer. Then the morning of the relaxer I based my scalp with Vaseline. Took me nearly two decades to figure this out. Worked great. (However, the realization that I went through all of that to mitigate the pain from a relaxer probably means I shouldn’t have been relaxing.)
+Oonagh72 hmm! That’s interesting! Yet you have a valid point! That was a lot to avoid burning!
Doesn’t it say in the instructions how to prevent burns?
What anti inflammatory cream did you use?
Thanks for the information, most needed .
"There's a childa face on the box.... Your welcome"...... Omg 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
