I'm not relaxed, my avatar is about a week into a flat iron, so my hair doesn't take to protein anyways. But I've been studying some of the other relax ladies fokti and messages, as I've been considering going that route. Silver, the lady with the gorgeous thick long hair, has said she never uses hard core protein, just an egg mixed into her conditioner. So for future reference, if your hair hates protein, you might want to consider doing this. But for now, find a conditioner that is purely moisturizing. I thing aubrey organics at whole foods carries some (I usually by avocado conditioner from shescentit.com and I know that you need something asap), and I've used them in the past. Good luck!
