tips for texturizing at home

[Keep1Belle]

Hi all:

I have been natural for 2 years. 8 weeks ago I went to the salon and got a texturizer on my new growth (the rest of my hair was pretty loose because of repeated flat ironing)

So 8 weeks out its time to texturize the new growth but, i really dont hae time or money ($130 to be specific) to go the salon.

Here is what I have so far/options in steps that I am stuck on; any tips?

Step 1: Should I coat my hair first with a creamy cinditioner

OR​

use my EFA oil

Step 2: THen apply texturizer (should I get a relaxer -mild, or a texturizer, or kiddie perm)


Step 3: wash texturizer and apply restructuring pack and then use the neutralizing shampoo then condition

OR​

wash and then use the neutralizing shampoo and then do deep conditioner

Any help would be appreciated

She did a good job, I guess. i didnt really need the style I just need my curls to loosen, I'm pretty sure I can do it myself ( i did my own relaxers in college), I just dont want my hair to be too loose/straight.

Any help/suggestions?

I use JFM texture softener and then follow up with ORS Penetrating Pak. I've been texturizing my hair for 2 1/2 years now, and that's what I've used. No issues here. I love my hair.

I loved the Motions mild texturizer but it was discontinued..my hair grew and never fell out.I colored it too and still never had problems , then i used just for me and had a disaster. my hair does not like no lie!!! Now I will if i do try again use dudleys sensitive scalp relaxer with two parts protein conditioner and one part relaxer with a wide tooth comb or SCurl with one part conditioner.
My girl whom has great hair uses the Dudley's

There was a thread recently where someone had had success with an S-Curl texturiser product. If anyone knows where it is, maybe they can post the link?

I use Organics African Pride texurizer. It is the only one that I tried that does not make my hair dry. I do not add anything to it ie conditioner. But I do have to buy two of them b/c of the length of my hair.
