Girl, that's probably the most prepared I've probably seen anyone for an at-home relaxer. Congrats on taking the plunge. And great great progress as well

you did an AWESOME job! I have wondered about the Sebastian cellophanes since seeing them on bluebeez. Do you mind me asking if you used heat with your application? Was it messy at all? I used a semi-permenant by Matrix on my self relaxer day and it bleed something terrible.

Great job! Keep up the good work!

 

[TaraDyan]

LOL ... I really enjoyed your post. It was quite entertaining ... plus you did a great job on your first self-relaxing job.

Looks like you're well on your way to being stylist independent. That's something to celebrate.

Congratulations, you did a great job! I like how you had everything laid out, including your ginger-ale

 

[Nonie]

Very well done! Great progress too.

at your "wine glass" with Ginger Ale. I was thinking "This should be interesting, having a drink while you relax your own hair." Very funny.

Thanks, tishee! I did use heat with the Cellophanes. After shampooing, I airdried until my hair was about 75% dry, then i applied the Cellophanes, put on a plastic showercap, and sat under my heat cap for about 30 minutes. Then I took off the heat cap and the plastic cap and let my hair cool for about 5 minutes. Then I shampooed again and conditioned. It wasn't very messy at all. I really liked the texture, actually. It felt very slippery and silky.

Congratulations! You did a great job and I enjoyed reading your post. I did cringe when I saw the wine glass then laughed when you mentioned it was ginger ale. Your hair is beautiful and I'm confident your post inspired a lot of DIYers.
