well i bought a blow out kit and i jus wanna say those instructions are confusing and scare me cus i dont wanna end up bald, o yea i bought the black magic blow out kit texturizer kit. i jus wanna kno if any of u found it as hard to use cus they say use the neutralizer after applyin the cream wen the neuttralizers purpose is to remove it from ur head right? And to clip hair and test it on that first and also they didnt state how long it should be in hair. they jus say not over 20 minutes.

Neutralizing shampoo well it is a shampoo, therefore it should remove the cream from your hair and helps to stop the chemical reaction that takes place when the cream is added on to break the bonds of your hair. U have to do the strand test to see how long u want it on there. Everyone's hair is different so they give u a maximum time period to leave it on, depending on what results u want.

 Texturizer is the same as a relaxer, except that you keep it on for a shorter period time. Usually people leave on just long enough to have a curly result.

I was wondering about texturizers and how they worked. I love curly hair and the way texturizers loosen the curl but do not completely straighten them. But I'm a chicken when it comes to trying things like that in my hair.

Yes, texturizers are permanent.

Depending on your hair, it can make your hair straight instead
of curly.

That's what I'm wondering too Missfro. I also wonder if I can you can texturize new growth you have a relaxer?? I've been relaxing forever and I think I want to leave some of my curl there.

Alot of people switch up to texturize their new growth. It will look like 2 different textures for the most part. For the majority that do switch up like that, they either cut to where the texturizer is or continue to texturize the new growth and trim away at the relaxed ends. Similiar to transitioning.
