Hello! *waves*
I have been using Hawaiian Silky Mild No Base relaxer on my head when I texlax. It's time to buy more, and I noticed that I can pick from Regular, Mild and Super. I have a very sensitive scalp (I'm using base creme these days 'cause I used to burn bad with no-lye relaxers).
Is Mild the weakest type of relaxer in general? Or should I go with regular?
Thanks for any and all help!:grin:

I would think Mild is less harsh than regular...that's why it's called mild.

But I don't have a realxer so don't take my word for it.

I have actually heard the opposite. I have heard that mild is actually harsher due to the fact that "softer or wavy" hair actually is harder to straighten and break down the curl pattern. In my opinion it might actually be best to use regular for a shorter period of time, relaxing in smaller sections.

Regular processes my hair faster. Which now the relaxer i have used for years. No longer makes mild. Now i need a new relaxer

I used to work as a chemist for the Lady Velvet hair care line. Mild relaxers have a little bit less (not much) of the active ingredient than regular.

Consign that mild is the lowest level of relaxers. Its designed for fine/delicate or color treated hair. Therefore, its less harsh.

I use a mild relaxer to "texlax" my hair.
