My hair was frizzy and dry so I used a relaxer.This has made my hair feel like straw and or the relaxer did not rince out. What can I do to fix it besides cutting it all off?Does a hair relaxer make your hair feel like straw, what can i do to fix it?
Relaxers dry out your hair so make sure you follow it with a good deep conditioning treatment and give it plenty of moisture.
My advice is to research relaxers and how to take care of them, so you can minimize this problem.Does a hair relaxer make your hair feel like straw, what can i do to fix it?
=( My hair after relaxers feels great! But it could be that I use a moisturising relaxer. Just buy a deep conditioning treatment. And treat it twice a day. MAKE SURE YOU RINSE IT OUT TO AVOID BUILDUP!
try leave in conditioner and a real good shampoo

Chemicall relaxers can have different straitening agents. First are the Sodium Hydroxise (lye) relaxers. Then you have the ';no lye'; relaxers. These would be the ones that use an alternative straigtening agent: Lithium, Potassium, Calcium hydroxide or Guanidine Carbonate. The degree of damage even though they are different chemicalls, is the same. It is just a way to fool the uninformed into thinking that the relaxer is less damaging because is a ';no Lye'; relaxer.
Then you have the Thioglycate ralaxers (or Thio). Thio is a milder chemical.
Some of these chemicals like sodium hydroxide or sodium bromate are actually used in sink cloggers because it eats hair. That is why relaxers are so damaging if they are applied incorrectly or overused. Hope that helps.What are the ingredients of hair relaxer?
lye relaxers contain sodium hydroxide as the active ingredient.

Has anyone used baka natural hair relaxer before?
I heard about this relaxer that it does not break the bonds of the hair as it only relaxes it, has anyone used it? is it true? or is it just a gimmick to get our money since a lot of black sisters have started to turn away from chemical hair relaxers? I am trying to stay away from chemical hair relaxers and just looking for alternate healthier options for my hair to become more manageable.Has anyone used baka natural hair relaxer before?
i suggest nooo cuzz i did it and well yea some partas are straight ans some curly so now i defanitlly have to straighten every day :( but if u blow dry all the tiem or just never let it dry alone it should be fine i must say its easier to styleHas anyone used baka natural hair relaxer before?
My experience using the (baka) natural-laxer plus was good, just like they stated...makes the hair more managable, less tangled, soft and lusterous. It's natural alright! But it does not make your hair straight like a regular perm. I would only recommend this product to those with natural hair.
i agree with the lady above a defo for a no no no....its best to use what you know....also do google search on best reported hair relaxers i use DARK n LOVELY it leaves you hair smooth soft and fresh and very moisturized...depends on your hair type.....
Do a search you will get reports of what millions of people rate the best relaxer
type something along the lines of ';what is the best hair relaxer for dry damaged hair....or best relaxer rated by public not to break hair etc....';
or even better ask yahoo people which relaxer they suggest and why
No. It's a advertisement. I used Optimum Hair relaxer and it stated it was redesign to help prevent brekage, but yet I still got breakage (I followed the directions closely).
You should either stick to what you know works (like the above two post) or go to your hair dresser. In the end relaxers basically have the same type of treatment process; however, a few may vary with more conditioners and creames. It's also about the process that you do (timing, hair stregth, type of hair you have, etc).
Personally when I do relaxers I actually do the apply a type of coating on my hair, apply the relaxer, rinse the relaxer out, and then use a deep conditioner, rince and continue with the steps. That's what I do. I have to use a relaxer because if I don't my hair gets super curly and harder to manage. In fact I think my hair comes out more without a relaxer than with one. Good Luck.
I've used the Baka Beauty Natural-Laxer and it is not a true substitute for a chemical straightener. I wear my hair natural and investigated Baka as an alternative to a texturizer for manageability.
I discovered that it was a messy procedure. The Baka clay was difficult to shampoo out and smelled funny. There is not enough Baka shampoo or conditioner provided to adequately cleanse or condition the hair after the clay. After the entire situation was finished, my hair was indeed more manageable. It was slight and would definitely require multiple applications to be worthwhile. Having medium length hair, the price tag for the appropriate amount would be near ridiculous.
After some research on NaturallyCurly.com, however, I found that I could recreate this by applying Queen Helene's Mud Masque to my hair instead. At near 2.50$ a bottle, it became a much more reasonable solution. (Also, the clay has a very nice clarifying property--something that I find exceptionally helpful when dealing with hard water here in Germany.)
If you are looking for a relaxer replacement, this would not be the solution unless you are prepared to attempt the procedure NUMEROUS times. Even then, I believe it would be most like a texturizer and would not provide you with an easy to maintain straight look.
I did when I was transitioning from my curly perm, and It loosed my curls. No notice of damage of any sort. I still have a bit of the product and may used it on my natural hair now.

What's the best hair straightner and hair relaxer for frizzy, thick curly hair?
Where can I get it, how much does it cost and is it good?What's the best hair straightner and hair relaxer for frizzy, thick curly hair?
Try Glatt. It's wonderful. I'm not sure about the price, though.What's the best hair straightner and hair relaxer for frizzy, thick curly hair?
get a WIDE chi you can get it at ulta it CAN be up to 200 dollars
You sound like you need super strength because you have thick hair.
You also sound however like you are new to relaxing your hair.
You need not just consider your hair texture but must also think about your scalp.
Hair straighteners can ofter burn your scalp and not only damage but cause your hair to fall out.
If you can afford it go to a salon or a friend on your family who you trust to apply it for you.
If you cannot afford it maybe you can raise money by babysitting or volunteering to help clean the local salon in exchange for getting your hair done.
Hair relaxing can give great results, they can also be harmful and devastating if done incorrectly.
In all honesty, avacado oil. Fruit and vegetable oils fuse to the hair shafts and weigh them down, pulling the curls out naturally without destroying the hair with chemicals. I found this out on accident when I used a shampoo that contained avacado oil. I was devastated when I notice my curls were GONE! My emergency trip to the salon taught me that fruit and vegetable oils can uncurl hair like a straightener without a second thought.
Apparently ALL fruit and veggie oils have this property but avacado seems to be the best at it. Garnier Fructis products contain avacado oil but it can also be purchased (link below).
On the chemical side, KMS Flat Out Hot Pressed Spray works wonders on curly hair when used in conjunction with a straightening iron. For more permanent results I guess you'd have to get your hair chemically straightened, something I do not have experience with.
Good luck!linux web hosting

What is a good hair relaxer for african american?
Hi,
I use a No-Lye relaxer. I've always heard that you should use No-Lye, but after researching and using haircare forums. I've found that Lye relaxers may actually be better. But I'm sticking with what I know works best. I use Organic Root Stimulator Olive Oil Relaxers because I love how soft my hair feels afterwards. And I just love all of the ORS products. It does wonders for helping hair grow and keeping it moisturized. It also helps give your hair great ';swang'; and shine after straightening it, lol. Anyway, I've also used other relaxers such as Creme of Nature. Silk Elements may be a good one. I love silk elements products.
Hope that helpsWhat is a good hair relaxer for african american?
something that doesnt require you to touch it. you might not ever be able to grip anything again with the large layer of grease
