Has anyone heard of this natural relaxer???

I found the recipe:

2 green limes
(Don't use more than 2 limes this is a catalyst and can dry the hair)
1-2 cans coconut milk (depending on thickness and length of hair)
honey
avodado oil or favorite oil
Instructions:
1. Put the coconut milk, limes, honey, and oil into a bowl.

2. Then mix well, you can vary the amount of honey whcih will make your hair more moisturized. One day before you will use mixture, and let it sit in the refrigerator until needed.

3. You will only be using the creme part that separates form the juice.

4. Section hair into 4 parts, smooth from root to ends, work through like hair colour.

5. Put on a platic cap and sit under a heat cap or hair dryer that works best (30 min). You can also just let it sit for more time with no heat under the cap (1-2hrs).

4. Rinse well, condition if needed with a thick moisterizing conditioner.

I have heard of women skipping the lime juic and adding more oils to the mix. I think I may try it.

I thought you was talking about a product called Copa that straightens and softens natural hair--like an alternative relaxer but it's organic and lasts for about a month or so.

I read about this on a relaxed hair care website. It sounds like a natural deep conditioner. There is a huge obsession with relaxing/loosening natural black hair.

Hello,
The Bodiphier natural relaxer that Jasmine2g3 has a link to in her post is the best! I have been posting about it until I am making myself sick! It's just that I know how long and hard I searched to find a good, product that really works! I stopped using regular relaxers over 10 yrs ago and could get by with just a blow dry and curling iron. Well, except on rainy days and humidity.

I tried Copa, I thought it was a too weak waste, I noticed no mentionable difference. Tried Naturalaxer, I think it made my hair too dry.

Then I stumbled on to Fresh Look's Bodiphier, and I can't stop raving about it! It's natural enough that you don't need gloves, or neutralizer shampoo. Apply using your hands, leave on 20-30 mins. Shampoo & conditioner come in the kit.

Ok, so on my 3b hair it comes out with a looser curl pattern- I don't comb the Bodiphier through, I just smear it on the new growth, and wrap in a warm towel for 20-30 mins. I can either air dry for a curly look, or blow dry. Two of the best things for me are that I can blow dry and add curl by using Caruso style rollers, so there is no heat! This has allowed me to eliminate about 75% of the heat I would use on my hair and virtually retire the curling iron.

Second best thing, the hair doesn't frizz in humidity or light rain. Yep the end of puffy, frizzy hair! That's how I can now style my hair with the Caruso rollers- they use steam and are slightly damp when you put them in. Before this product, my hair would frizz if I used them.

So, I've used the Bodiphier three times now, about five to six weeks inbetween applications. I still deep condition weekly. But have no complaints, no breakage, change in color (i.e. red ends).

Hould it work on 4a hair and where do you purchase it from????

I found a site if anyone else wanted to know their hair type.
