Its been almost a year for me, and I'm feeling the itch. I gotta do something!
I don't want to relax, I haven't found a stylist that is willing to texturize my hair, (I have a lOT of hair, and it is past BSL now with natual roots and relaxed ends!). I've been told by a couple of stylist that they are afraid to over process sections of my hair, because my hair is so thick and long, that the front of my hair would be straight by the time they got to the back, or vice versa.
I want to do something with these natural roots to calm them down, but I don't have a clue as to what? I still want to switch between curly and straight styles. I like the versatility of natural, but want the styling ease of a relaxer.
Is the answer a mild relaxer, texturizer, text-laxing???

Hey Vanity3 girl, I see no one has answered any of your last two post and Im sorry to tell you that I can't really answer your questions either. Im still looking for the same solution actually.
Right now Im doing my research on facial clay or french green clay to help with that manageability.
I thought about texlaxing at one point but, for me that would be a big step. I don't think I want to do something so permanent right now, you know no chemicals.
The clay is suppose to be a gradual release of curls with the ability of reverting back when ever you feel like it just by stopping the treatments.
Sorry I couldn't help more.  ------------- Natural since: Spring 00' Type: 3c |
