Getting a relaxing hair treatment (OT)

.:Shortcake:. · #1 May 3rd, 2012, 03:25 AM

Hey ladies! I got a perm in November and I HATE it! I've waited to go get it "fixed" because I don't want to fry my hair. But I think I'm going tonight to get a relaxing treatment. Has anyone ever had one of these before? Does it mess up your hair badly? Any tips?

Nope no perm, a chemical relaxer.

I'm African American and I get chemical relaxers about twice a year. My only advice is to not allow the product to sit in your hair for too long bc it can burn your scalp or cause excessive damage to your hair. It doesn't smell the best, but I've never had issues with hair breakage or anything like that.

Katie,

How did your hair turn out?

Did it work?

I actually couldn't get it done

My hair is soooooo damaged from the perm that they are afraid to do anything with it. I had to get 3 inches chopped off because it was completely dead. So now I'm going to work on making it healthy and just hope that it grows itself out.

That is awful. I am sorry that it didn't work for you.

Thanks dear! Right now my hair is just up mostly in a pony tail until I can figure out what to do with it!
