DUMB S-CURL QUESTION

[calliope]

This has probably been answered already, but is s-curl safe for relaxed hair? I always thought that it was jheri juice so I was always afraid to try it, but I did and now I'm in LOVE!!!!! This will always be a staple product for me at 6 weeks post and beyond. But, anyway, does it have any of the ingredients that a jheri curl does? I mean, you know how you should not go from one process to another like curls to relaxer and vice versa. Does it have any of the stuff in it that a jheri curl process would have or is it just a moisterizer? The bottle says for curls, waves, and natural hair, so I'm a little concerned that it doesn't say anything about relaxed. Can an experienced user help me out here? I think that this stuff is so good that if it's bad for relaxed, I'll just finally go natural .

Its not bad at all, I use it, and a lot or relaxed heads use it too.

This isn't a dumb question...The s-curl moisturizer is just a moisturizer...it has no chemicals in it that can cause any problems to your hair...I used it b4 in the past and my hair hates it...It left my hair feeling dry...but to each it's own...so now i'm using wave nouveau for moisture instead...it is safe for relaxed heads to use s-curl moisturizers or any kind of moisturizer...no harm would be done to your hair...Just added moisture which your hair would love. HTHs

Yep its just a moisturizer, the first two ingredients are water and glycerin so its nothing that will harm your hair. Its one of my staple products, my hair loves it too.

Yes! S-curl is graaaand! I've been using it for the last week on my ends before bunning AND it's been a savior to my kitchen! That's the dryest portion of my hair and with just two very light mistings each day I've seen a HUGE difference (moisture retension, less breakage). It's thoroughly moisturized and not greasy. I've heard it's great for new growth. I will definitely be stretching (hopefully until February/March).

Thanks for all of the replies ladies -I'm no longer scurred- I feel like I could stretch 4-eva!

Ditto, to all of that! My hair loves it, too!

Ditto! I tried StaSoFro because it was cheaper, but I'm going back to S-Curl. Gonna pick some up at Walmart tomorrow. I'm going to TRY to stretch my relaxer and this will definitely come in handy.

For some reason, I can't use this when I am in a bun, but my braids just LOVE S-CURL! Everybody in Japan made fun of me when I had my Jherri Curl juice but they had no idea that it's packed with moisture!

heres another dumb question... besides moisturize does s-curl really make you hair curl? Like is it ideal for me as a natural for a washngo?

Personally S-Curl Activator made my relaxed hair very weak. The S-curl wave pomade works well on my natural hair.

I wanted to try S-Curl. Just to see how it would do, but I'm still not sure.

I love S curl for my relaxed and my natural hair. For my relaxed hair, it makes me be able to catch my thin edges when making my lil bun. For my natural hair, it helped bring out a sheen in my natural hair. No other product even came close to doing that for me.

I used to use s curl but it made my scalp so itchy and made my hair so greasy. now i use sta sof fro because it's what my mother uses and i love it way more. it's much lighter but still very moisturizing.
