Relaxer Fail ?? Idk
I relaxed my hair by myself yesterday for the first time. I always have my hair in a pony tail. I’ve been relaxed for 9 years (I went natural for two). I usually do two month stretches but this time I did three months. A week before relaxing I just had my hair in a loose bun, no products and I didn’t comb it.
My hair in general is medium thick. I used a dark n lovely box dye last December so it has ginger ends.
Anyways when I was washing out the relaxer with neutralizing shampoo some of my hair came out. It’s the usual amount that comes out when I wash my hair but idk if that’s suppose to happen when relaxing. Did I keep it in too long? Of course, my blow dryer and flat iron stopped working so when I finished, I put leave in conditioner and mousse in my hair with some rollers and let it air dry. So it’s not salon quality smooth.
I’m gonna try attaching a video of my hair in the comments. I could use a trim. Idk whenever I relax my hair at salons I always get a trim, my ends always get uneven and thin. My ends have always been like that before I dyed it.
Anyways any tips? Product recs? This time I used Hawaiian silky but I usually buy ORS relaxer or whatever the pharmacy has.
