I'm not going to lye... I don't even have relaxed hair 😆. I just like watching your videos !
Love my curl friends 😍 thanks for watching Queen ❤️
I like the pun
I saw what you did there...😏
😂😂😂
Same😅
I have (had) virgin 4c hair and used the ORS lye relaxer….yea my hair laughed at me. Went from a 4C to a 4c lmao
did you smooth your hair?
@@ambrosia1917 yes! It just texlaxed my hair. It honestly seemed like a good thing though after it was all over. Hair seemed stronger since it wasn’t bone bone straight. And it was still easier to manage
Yes it's Lye for me too. I used to use the box kind when I was alot younger. Noticed overtime my hair started to look dry and brittle...made the change and my hair immediately looked less dry and had a much silkier feeling.
Thanks for watching hun❤️❤️
@@BriannaRashay what’s the name of the brush you using to apply the cream
No Lye also turns hair a redish brown a lot of people have reported
I use to put some pine tar on my chemical burns back in the day. Also I got relaxer got on my face and I used a grease called Fuji it healed my skin instantly.
Thats why I stopped 8 years ago because my hair would get dry over time post relaxer and it would be brittle once I needed a retouch. I definitely wish I came across this info I tried two years ago and again same outcome with box relaxers. I have used lye like maybe twice but retouch only. Looks like I might start again.
I've had way less breakage using silk elements I also love the heat protect
When i use lye relaxer at home my hair is always under processed. Thank God I finally decided to go back to no lye
You are just so awesome! Thanks for such an informative video. I love your personality, honesty and transparency. Thanks for always keeping it real and 💯. Many blessings to you dear!
I'm half black and started straightening my own hair as a very young man. It takes me almost exactly 17.5 minutes and I don't play no nothing, I'm by myself and brush it in fast and thick with Dark and Lovely. I begin ready and hop in the shower and follow each step, but I follow up with my own conditioner which is Biolage. If I had long hair like you, I'd have to be far more careful and I have had very long hair down to my chest. I love my hair but it's a pain in the ass and lookin good is a matter of perspective. I want my hair flat as hell, so I can easily comb and brush it any which way I chose. I'm a 41 year old Italian black man with beautiful hair and in happy. But you do you. Anyway I appreciate you and wish you great success.
Respect and love!
You are adorable and I say that as a grandmother/mother okay? You're just so pretty. God Bless.
New subscriber here. Thank you for sharing this information. After using No lye relaxers for many years, I started my natural journey after a very critical experience with Covid in 2020. I’ve been a Registered Nurse for over 30 years and I had to retire myself from bedside nursing. I’m now focusing on & prioritizing my own health and wellbeing. Again, thank you for sharing. 💢♥️💢
New subscriber 🌹ty for the information !! I’m ready to get a relaxer.
Bri. Thank you thank you for this video. I was just talking to a friend about this
Your air dried hair looks amazing and I think you dont show it very often. can you a video about the pros and cons on having texlaxed hair vs relaxed hair and natural hair?
Thanks for the video
Lo-lye relaxer would be just right for me!
My hair was healthier when I was relaxed and when I tried to go back I noticed my hair was dry. I didn’t know it was because I used no lye. I get a lot of buildup because I have bad dandruff and didn’t have such a bad problem when I was relaxed. It’s made me not so much with my hair and just throw on a wig but I’m going back. I’ll still do wig but want to take care of my hair and relaxers help me do that. Thanks going to get a jar relaxer tomorrow!!!
Great advice btw!
Thanks baby girl you are a life saver ❤ 💕 ❤.
The box relaxers worked for me but getting braids ( especially twists) break off the hair after taking them out. But tbh I guess it depends on the person
Thanks for this .. the box relaxers makes my hair dry and trashy at the end. Think it’s time for a change .
Thank you so much for this video!! After 13 years with a natural TWA, I decided to get a relaxer recently while traveling. Got a pixie cut and absolutely love it. But here’s the catch: Now I’m back home and am having a hard time finding a local salon who uses the brand relaxer I have Syntonics (lye-based, verrry gentle, botanicals, no breakage, love it). I want to still use it but if I can’t, what do I do? Should I just use a different relaxer as long as it’s the same base (lye)? I’ve heard you shouldn’t “overlap” relaxers because they have different formulas, but what do you do in this case?
come through my hair crush with another banger, love your vids, keep n up the good work
Thanks for watching ❤️
Thanks Briiii
I use the box dark &lovely regular relaxer it works for me
Great video, I've always wondered why my hair is always so dry no matter how much I deep condition and pamper my hair. I big chopped last month but I think I will switch to Lye relaxer when start to relax again.
I use a mild no lye relaxer. It just always works for me.!
Mild does it every time for me!
Which strength and brand did you choose?
I love Affirm Fiberguard.
I've been self relaxing since the beginning of the pandemic and I see a complete difference in my previous strands vs the ones I've self relaxed. Thicker, stronger and darker.
I love self relaxing! Once you get comfortable with it it’s a game changer
Where do you purchase it
Great info Brianna 💜💜💜💯
Hello 👑Bri
I would like to ask your opinion on the Mizani relaxer and you mentioned that we should look at the ingredients in most of your videos but I wasn't apply to find a video that explains those ingredients
So my request is your opinion on Mizani relaxer and what are the ingredients to avoid and to go for ...if you could try the relaxer and make a video after it would be highly appreciated plus Mizani seems to be a trend 😉
I jus started my hair journey and I recently changed my relaxer from no lye to lye because it didn't do anything for my hair I have course texture hair and my scalp is sensitive so I will try to put in my creme base overnight because I like my new growth straight so I use motions relaxer nw I love your videos alot continue to give us good advice.
Thanks for watching! Hopefully the switch does better for you ❤️
¡Great video! Thank youuuu 😘
Like your video now I know the difference between the 2.
Definitely use the lye relaxer, except if your hair color is over two levels.
I used both. But the lye relaxer didnt take after a while and yes i used super 🤣
Also scalp burns can be triggered by scalp irritation such as scratching the scalp and having plaits and braids immediately prior to having it done.
You are naturally beautiful,
i don’t relax my hair i texturise my hair, and i use no-lye box texturiser and my hair loves it (it’s soft and beautiful botanicals regular so it isn’t just a normal texturiser it caters to the hair). i only actually texturise my hair twice/once a year as i tend to keep it in protective styles, i let my real hair out in the summer and maybe in the spring/autumn but never in the winter. whenever my stylist texturises my hair my hair is always left looking shiny and healthy (we don’t use all of the steps only the texturiser, before she uses her own products)
A texlax is a relaxer just underprocessed.
@@lushpuppy21 a texturiser is different to texlax, texlax is using relaxer but under processing it
Gurllll! U look breathtakingly beautiful in this video.
Thank you!
Thank you for your information it was well informative ❤
I got a relaxer burn ONE time and that’s all it took for me to be scared for life🤣🤣 Great video Gorgeous ✨👌🏽
😂😂 I use to get them all the time when I was younger but when you know better you do better! Thanks for watching ❤️❤️
Great sharing dear,have really Learnt dear
Thank you for this video
What about beautiful beginning the one for kids
Thankyou for this video! Can I color then relax?
I'm here cause you are one of my favs and black love ya
Love you back ❤️❤️
Your hair is beautiful
Hi
I love when my hair is relaxed but I'm now learning that hair relaxers are causing uterine, breast and ovarian cancer. I'm 61 years old and have been relaxing from age nineteen. I really don't want to have any of these cancers. I last relax my hair last year October but to tell you the truth, I can't manage with my new growth anymore. It's course and hard to manage even tho I use hair softener etc. But then there is the cancer scare. I need your advice and suggestions
Thanks from Jamaica 💕🇯🇲
Hi! You mentioned you haven't had a scalp burn in years. How about now? Also is it a case that the motions relaxer doesn't burn you whereas other brands do?
Beautiful❤
Thank you so much this information is going to help me a lot
How long can you keep the jar of lye relaxer once opening?
What if you have mold in your scalp, is it better for you use mild perm.
Hi! How long should I leave the relaxer in if I still want to have texture in my hair?
Love your jewelry!
Thank you Tracey!
@@BriannaRashay YOU'RE WELCOME 😁
Me too🤩
I don't understand my hair at all that is the problem am having.
I had relaxed my hair back in 2020 my mom told me to leave it in longer even though it was burning, I washed the relaxer out after 30 MINUTES (BIG NO NO) my hair was falling out and melted and my scalp had really bad burns, I shaved my head the next day and my mom felt really bad for not listening to me. I am now natural after shaving my head again in summer 2020 and getting a fro-hawk in summer 2021 I am not considering relaxing my hair soon and this video has been a MASSIVE HELP, Thank You!
You shouldn't of put on relaxer in the first place it causes breakage and of it burns, then take it out of your hair right away. When my mom relaxed my hair it started breaking OFF and falling out , so that's why my mom doesn't do relaxers anymore
I'm so sorry that happened to you 😢
There's a cream that relaxes natural hair and it leaves the hair almost natural but easy to comb.i don't know if u Kno Abt it becoz am a natural and don't want to be relaxed fully.if u Kno some good cream for that I will be happy if u prescripe for me.🤗
Do you have a video telling us what products to use for the things the relaxer takes out?
Ors olive oil relaxer or Motions

What base cream u use for sensitive scalp? I need tht Asap 😩
Question: I put the Luster's Pink Shortlooks (Texturizer) Curl Softener in my hair but instead straightened my hair(like bone straight). Since it is straight now and i wont be able to get my curls back anytime soon. Do you have any suggestions on what to do with my hair. Please let me know so I can figure out what to do with my hair
All you can do is be sure to do bond rebuilding and protein treatments so you don't get much breakage and save the integrity of your hair. Sorry that happened
Any box relaxer are to strong and they say it’s no lye but most of the time box relaxer do have lye in them so be cautious. You have to use a professional relaxer from the retailer. I sometimes I ask my stylist to order my products so I can keep up with my hair myself as well when I’m home.
I for one would love to know the salon relaxers cuz they tend to help my hair more than I try no lye Perms to me tend to be weak in stores for example my friend went on vacation one short swim her perm was not right she said for the next few days What happen to the perm withstood water and more any one know any I dont use relaxers but getting to the point soon i wanna try
You’re right that the salon brands are more effective and give longer lasting results. I’ve been on vacation swimming a few days after a no-lye home brand (Optimum) and my frizz was so puffy. But washing my hair or swimming after salon relaxers didn’t produce really any frizz because the process seemed to be permanent. The 3 professional brands I am aware of are: Affirm, Mizani, and Design Essentials. There’s probably more, but these seem to be the most popular.
💯💯
I have coarse hair
You have received
do you think i can dilute a lye relaxer with conditioner to make it milder for my 3a hair ?
You can put oil in it. I always put castor oil in mine. Slows processing time so gives you more time to apply
Thank you I thought you ignored me!
How should leftover relaxed (premix)be stored? I always end up with a lot of relaxer that I have to throw in the trash because it can only be stored for 4 weeks?
Back in the day we used to just store it in the fridge until the next time we relaxed.
Why is it that you do the edges last? My edges is what I want the most straightened.
can you use another brand relaxer on one part of your hair when you have run out of the relaxer you're using. even if they are both no lye. or go get the same relaxer to finish
I suggest not using different relaxers at the same time, because each brand is different. So your hair would have two different textures
Sometimes I'd use the same brand but one super and one regular because my hair in places are so coarse.
I’m trying to figure out the difference between no lye and lye relaxers. I did see lots of articles about relaxers cause cancer
I’m more of a lye girl myself. Specifically Affirm Fiberguard, because it allowed me to stretch suuuper long for me with very little breakage. I just got remember to base EVERY LITTLE THING because it will bite me 🤣🤣🤣
For the affirm relaxer, do you use only the relaxer or you have to use the entire line ?
@@cherubinjudith8525 I only bought the relaxer, shampoo, and conditioner. Technically you could use a neutralizing shampoo and conditioner from a different line, but I just like to use all 3 together because they’re made to work with each other.
How do you base your hair?
@@gabriellanyirenda649 I just part my hair in small sections and put the base on my scalp. I try to avoid the new growth.
I’m transitioning to natural but I’ll continue to support your channel because I enjoy your content
Thanks for watching ❤️❤️
Why if I may ask?
@@realmaureenoyakhilome been relaxed since I was 12 and I needed to see what my natural hair looks and feels like. Always was told that it’s ugly so o wanted to see for myself
@@iheartshan8328 O’kay then. Best of luck
Is anyone going to talk about why should we be using something safe .. Hello haven’t anyone heard what’s happening to our black women from relaxer , they say it’s linking to cervical cancer.
Should we be worried about the reports that states that Lye relaxers used by African American woman over a long period of time can put you at a higher risk for cancer ? This information has been stated for years, but I saw a recent news segment on my local news about a couple of weeks ago and was wondering should we be concerned about LYE relaxers ?
I think it depends of the frequency in which you relax? Like if you’ve relaxed your hair more than 4 times a year. Also hair dyes. But you should read the reports. I believe they were testing women with a history of breast cancer in their family.
If you've read that article, at the very bottom it states that there's no evidence correlating cancer in AA to relaxers.
Pls post links if reports. Multiple people reading helps thanks
was it peer reviewed research with actual findings?
I actually find the no lye relaxer better because of the olive oil content which acts as a protectant, not to mention a tablespoon of olive oil is great for blood pressure and glowing skin. Olive oil has been used by Ethiopians and this is why their hair is so beautiful. They add a lot of olive oil. All relaxers have a timer so you will not to burn your head, but some people over do it. A salon burned my scalp and forgot about me as I said "my head is burning." I was only 11 yrs. old, but my sister who was a legal eagle came in and said "what the bleep are you doing, don't you see her head is burned????" So the salon lady washed everything out with warm water and added a lot of Vaseline and that helped get rid of the scabs over the next couple of weeks. But I never went back there.
That’s incorrect- Ethiopians have type 3 hair because of centuries of racial admixture- given the close proximity to the Middle East. They don’t use “olive oil “ to get their hair that texture. That’s ridiculous.
Hi i have a question how do you leave texture in your hair? please and thankyou
under process it. leave it in for lesser time than advised.
I use no - lye children's relaxer I find it isn't as harsh and muncher kinder to my hair and scalp than the adult relaxers
Here's a fun fact, the difference between a kiddie relaxer and an adult relaxed is that a child is on one of the box. The ingredients are exactly the same. You just leave it in the hair for less time🤷♀️
There is no difference between the two.
@@RSweetnessRivers🤣🤣
Heyy, please I'm thinking about relaxing my hair and I don't know which relaxer to use. I'm stuck between the ors relaxer and the dark and lovely relaxer.. Please which do you think I should use?
My mom and I have been using "Dark &Lovely" since 2009 and we think the product is simply amazing. I use it for Fine hair and she for Normal hair.
I love the ORS relaxer. I use the one in the jar. I have really thick hair. The normal strength works amazing on my hair every 3 months.
Can one switch from one type of relaxer to another/ from lye to no lye? If yes, any tips to do this best?
I wanna know too
Same here! Been using the Boxed for years n I would like to go Lye....
Couldn't you just put some vaseline or something on your scalp before applying the relaxer, so it won't burn your scalp?
Yes but be careful not to put it on your new growth or it might block the relaxer from working
@@adrienneguillepe1198 Yes... is there a good way to achieve that?
How long can spend to relaxe again please
It's depends on your texture 😀hope this helps
Is it true that a chelating shampoo can remove the calcium build up? TIA😘
Yes! Cheating shampoo is great at removing buildup but so it a really good neutralizing shampoo. Usually when you use the products that are the same brand as the relaxer they work together! But other times you may have to use different type of neutralizing/clarifying shampoo!
Great question!!!
I'm getting ready to relax my 14-year-old daughter's hair might get the just for me I just want to put it in and get it out
You look like a mix between Issa Rae and Shannon Thornton.
U make this movie to talk
You typed this comment to type🤨
Can I use a relaxer to loosen up the roots, But still leave the rest of the hair curly?. I like my hair type, But even though its long, i still cant lay it down,
hey, I see you asked this a while ago but its NOT recommended... having 2 textures long term would lead to breakage. Also if you only do it once, as time goes on you will have a totally different hair texture in the middle of your hair strands as well. this again will eventually lead to breakage and also a "poodle" effect/ look to your hair.
No
no relaxer at all..
No lye relaxers are stronger
None!
hey we dont know each other but i hope ur doing well and I wanna say that GOD still loves u and wants u to be with him all u must do is trust in Jesus (dying for our sins on the cross) and repent of ur sins. GOD loves u more than u can imagine.🎉❤🎉😊😊😊
Something I’ve noticed when doing my relaxers… is the box ones give me the most smooth and silky results. I’ve been using the motions lye one and my hair maintains the most texture which I kinda don’t like. I have always used super and my hair never gets straight enough for me even when leaving it on longer 🫤🫤🫤
