Ladies: Do not apply at the roots first. You're risking a poodle look..the roots will process quicker due to body heat. You don't want that inconsistency that can result.
You gotta know your hair. I had some heat damage so my roots were kinkier than the rest of my hair. Even though it was a Virgin texturizer I still applied from roots to almost ends and got great results. If I had left the roots for last as recommended would have been severely underprocessed- like my ends were 😞
I texlaxed my hair and I am so happy I did. I texlaxed mine with olive oil relaxer. My curls are beautiful and if I want to wear it straight it will be beautiful just as well. I can also wear twist outs, sleek ponytails and an afro. I love it.
Had to come pass and show my sisters some love...great video guys....you really could see your length after the process and your curl pattern 😍😍😍....wash and go ready....your hair came out really pretty
I'm a licensed hairstylist please make sure that you're not scratching your scalp before a relaxer application and please use a petroleum base to protect your scalp from chemical burns. If your scalp continues to itch like the way that it did before you applied the chemical relaxer I would recommend that you don't use the product until your hair stops the itching and irritation. I think that the reason her hair was itching could be either 2 things one her hair was dirty before the application and two she could be suffering from product build up. If you're suffering from product buildup use a clarifying shampoo. I hope that you be safe using chemical products.
I want to try so bad but I’m terrified. Since mid 20s every relaxer I can bet put in took my hair out. I’ve been natural almost 3 years...but I just want to relax my coils a bit . Even natural with little heat they are unruly and dry looking no matter what products I use...not sure what is wrong
TexLax: Purposely under-processing the hair (with a Relaxer/Lax) so that it isn’t bone straight and that Texture remains (Tex/Texture). Process time under 15 minutes. With a traditional Relaxer you would process around 20+ minutes depending on the person/stylist to achieve bone straight hair.
@@dreyahallen1250 Thank you so much!! Seems the whole time I used relaxers I was really texlaxing b/c my scalp was so sensitive I never let it stay in long therefore never achieving bone straight hair. Just wanted the roots manageable. Didn't know there was a word/process for it. Thank you!!
No hate to you but,your not meant to be mixing things with the relaxer only the things that come with the relaxer in the box those are the things you should mix with the relaxer. Unless it's olaplex No 1 I. The relaxer this help any chemical damage that comes from chemical treatments eg relaxing, perming, dying hair/ bleaching hair with foils ect olaplex is compatible with all chemical services.
A texlaxer is a relaxer. You leave it on shorter. The same chemicals. Even if you have a child's face on the package. Your hair can become very dry. So think about it.
I notice that too about alot of naturals including myself. I think due to hair tangling, patience, improper hair tools and usage, genetics, strinkage, etc it's a complicated process to retain inches. It can be done though.
Being natural means you’ve never put any chemically altering products in your hair. That doesn’t mean that determines your length. It’s like people with relaxers people get haircuts like Bob’s or shave it off and start over.
@@madib.2567 genetics plays a huge part. My daughter had been natural and at 8 years old begged me to cut her hair because she so tender headed and her hair was waist length at just 8 years old....2 years later its at shoulder length. She didn't go to scalp but it was about 4 inches long when I cut it.
Everyone will be different. You have to pay attention to the hair and KNOW how to acquire the results that you're after. I.e. How loose you want your coils.

To each their own. This is the way I do it and I love my results.
@@eyekandy3000 A very rare exception, not the rule all.

Lmao why she let you scratch yo head like that before she put it on 🤣🤣🤣 you better than me sis
I know! luckily it didnt burn lol
I came on here just to comment about this lol
Wow, I’ve been thinking about texlaxing. This really helped!!
Had to come pass and show my sisters some love...great video guys....you really could see your length after the process and your curl pattern 😍😍😍....wash and go ready....your hair came out really pretty
How long did you leave it in?
Did she just scratch her scalp before applying????? Im worried for that babies poor scalp. and im only 1:28 minutes in...
That texture is gorgeous! 🙂( officially joined the family - new subie)
Thank you! Welcome to the family! 🤗
I love your technique and the care you took to protect her hair, Good Job 👍 ♥️
Great job the best one I've seen all the rest of the videos the hair looked termed yours looks like natural-looking curls you did an amazing job ✅😍

i think this is the BEST before and after i seen that looks like my haiir
This turned out beautifuly. What texlaxer did you used? I think I’ve lost the natural hair fight and I will texlax my hair once I remove my braids 😫
BeautyByTimtim me too
I got the same results and used the s curl texturizer regular strength in the blue container. Left it in for 25-30 mins
@@faithyayi That's a really looong time to leave it in. Your hair must be quite resistant to the chemical.
T G the first time I did it my hair almost nothing happened. It’s for men so it’s not as strong
@@faithyayi Oh I see. (Everyone will have to know THEIR hair. My hair would've fallen out after 30 min).
Awesome result! How long did you leave it in?
Kitchen and edges last...👌
For my night time routine, should I be braiding my hair or should I be wrapping my hair while it is texlaxed ?
Texlaxed today... Can't get any length without breakage... 4C hair So tight.
Absolutely beautiful 😍
Nice vid! Dig the intro as well

You need to understand your hair porosity
100 Texlax videos later and no one still has said what a texlax is.....this looks like a relaxer to me! What's the difference??

@@marquitafreeman9830 You're very welcome! -yup that is what you were doing. I did it for manageability as well.
There’s google
She aso added oils and conditioner to the relaxer-mix. Then its not that harsh
OMG! Great video, Fam.
Do you have any updates on your hair? Or videos of you styling your texlax?
LOVE how this came out 😩😍
can we have an update?
Thanks! I never heard of this so it was very informative.

Mines is dry natural so I’m thinking about it
Ok. I see. Thank you!
How long did you leave it in
What's the difference??? It looks her natural hair when its wet
It’s a looser curl pattern and more manageable than before
Came out 👍
I love it,all even
Good video 💯💯💯👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽❤️❤️❤️✅✅✅
I see yall!
Hey bro subscribe to my channel please....don’t have any videos yet but they on the way lol
Did you cut your hair to keep it that length? I’m just wondering why you’re hair isn’t longer since you’ve been natural all your life.

❤️
Your suppose do the back 1st
I don’t think you have to. Is there a reason ? My hair has a lower curl in the back so I do the front first
@@ilcouture same
😍
You should never put chemicals on hair that has oil build up
Why?
@@DivaDen it says it on the box
How long did you leave it in ?
I left this one in for 10 minutes but depending on the texture and coarseness of the hair vs the desired texture you may need more or less time.

She said 10 mins. Its smart to do it in 2 sections and to not do the roots first.
How long did U leave it ?
