My relaxer day was very similar to my last relaxer
1.dividing hair in mini twists
2. Applying an oil to my already relaxed hair
3. Mixing my relaxer with an oil to slow down processing time
4. Set timer to 13 and go go go. This relaxer, I only used 9 mins before I was ready to rinse off. It was so quick! I just had to stopp and get my hair rinsed and neutralised. Maybe I had been messing with my scalp all week...9 mins was short. But got all my relaxed in in 7 so yay me! I still go the results I was looking for. Have lots of texture and volume.
I wore my hair in a wavy twist out. It was big and undefined by the end of the day but enjoyed it regardless.
I didn't do a length check but think it's safe to say am still in APL land. Will do an official length check and ends check soon. For the first time ever I have not been bothered about the length of my hair. My last relaxer days it was all about the flat iron to see the length I retained. Hope this feeling lasts it's so freeing p.s I still want length!! Don't get me wrong.

Yvonne,
ReplyDeleteI still cant get how w are worlds apart but our hair journeys are so in sync. I also relaxed my hair on Saturday at 16 weeks post. I also washed out my relaxer very fast because my scalp was starting to itch. I did not get any serious burn though. I will post me relaxer update later this week.
