My hair just won't take a relaxer. I've tried four different relaxers and three different stylists in the past 2 3/4 years. Here is my story.
My hair used to be extremely overprocessed from Dark n'Lovely No-Lye relaxer (mommie put it in). My hair was completely chewed, as seen in my old pictures in my album.
Then I started co-washing and following tips I got from online (motowngirl, LHCF), and my hair started getting thicker and stronger. I had found a new stylist and her relaxer, Variations Lye w/ Aloe, got my hair somewhat straight. Unfortunately, the relaxer is extremely hard to find, as it is manufactured in New Orleans. You must be a stylist to buy the product
I decided to switch stylists one time, and they used Affirm Regular. It did not get my hair straight at all. After going back to the stylist that used Variations, my hair didn't get straight again. Then I got braids...
Then I tried to relax my own hair with Vitale Lye Relaxer... it didn't take at all. I tried over 6 times, and it just won't get straight A dominican once got my hair straight but when I washed it... the waves immediately came back... stupid, weak Affirm
Please help me. Here is my regimen: I co-wash daily, rollerset maybe 1x a month and flat iron only my new growth 1x a month also. I only give myself light protein treatments once or twice a week. I have type 6f hair, it is very thick.
Thanks I am very frustrated.
