what's an all natural progressive relaxer?

[naturallygoldie]

Ok so I've been transitioning now for a little over 18 months and one of my homies became a rep for this company http://www.mybautesofficicapelli.com/ProductLines/sofficirelaxingkit.html.

I was going through the site (picking out samples) when I stumbled across this: All natural deep conditioning progressive relaxer chemical free penetrates through the hair cuticle to nourish and relax curls. Excellent for hair that has not been chemically processed it relaxes the hair and controls frizz. Can be used between periods of chemically relaxing your hair it will maintain your relaxer longer and moisturize your hair. Attention this is not a permanent relaxer.

Has anyone ever heard or used something similar to this?? So far my transition/stretch has been going ok but will this make it so i don't need to flatiron after my rollersets??? hmmmm

PS I sent a request for the list of ingredients.

It is all natural and it relaxed my curls a little. It also is a deep conditions. I would probably try it before the progressive relaxer.

No, it left my hair shiny and more manageable.

I know it says all natural, but for some reason this reminds me of a BKT. I wish they at least had the instructions for use up there.

This is very interesting. I just read the testimonials of women who have used this product and they are all from Florida, which means a lot if this product can help reverting in Florida Humidity!

I gave the rep our site info so hopefully she'll come around to answer all your questions. She seems very nice

sounds a lot like that stupid bodiphier i tried back in '06.
you know what, i take back the "stupid" part. i was hoping for actually straight hair, but all it really did was soften my texture. imagine the texture you have when it's dry behaving like it does when damp. hope that makes sense.
if you want to keep some texture, it's cool, but i thought it was an actual relaxer alternative

i dont know how i feel about the ingredients. they seem like a regular conditioner ingredients no?

whats in the regular relaxer?

 

[jerseygurl]

I looked up the Guar blah blah blah, I think it is the main ingredient that makes the hair easier to comb but I didn't see anything about prolonged usage. I'd rather do a coconut relaxer first before using this "natural relaxer" which has little natural ingredient in it. JMHO

I agree with Napp, it's just a regular con with loads of slip :shrug:
