      Another suggestion, you should use the olaplex after you rinsed out the relaxer. Your cuticles are open which allows the treatment to penetrate better and do it's job. Then follow up with the neutralizing shampoo.

    I don’t understand why so many ppl feel the need to say that they’ll never get a relaxer again when they see a relaxer video 😐 ok but this is a relaxer video & it’s not your hair .

      Miss S, THANK YOU 💯🎯! I couldn't have said it better myself. These natural hair Nazis are annoying af. Like...who asked you sis? Literally no one. They just won't quit it.
      I'm currently natural and will be chopping my hair off soon, but I make no judgements to those who still relax. I've never felt the need to badger the next woman over what she chooses to do with her hair because it ain't my business. Their hair is their hair and mine is mine. I don't understand why some of us are so deeply affected by what the next woman does with her hair. We gotta stop that. It's not a good look.

    The reason our hair was damaged from relaxing in the past was because we weren’t relaxing our hair properly. We used to just relaxed it an forget about it. We didn’t properly care for it after the relaxer since the hair become more manageable but in reality we should really take care of our relaxed hair the same as natural hair. I really like ur videos ☺️

And “all u have to do is wash, add a little gel, and GO”. It seemed quick and easy. Fast forward to now, there is nothing quick about a “wash n go”. It takes ample time, energy, and money.

      My sisters think I am the biggest hypocrite for going back to relaxing my hair but I don’t care. I remember that we use to do everything soooo wrong. I’m looking forward to see what will happened if I do it right this time!

      @ brown beauties, your comment caught my eye, does the conditioner still "respond" to your natural hair as it did when you were relaxed.

      @@AchieOtigo I would say stick to what you know. The products I use for my natural hair I used for my relaxed hair. Now some products may not work the same on your natural hair like it did on your relaxed hair it’s just trial and error but don’t go rushing to buy products out for your hair. I still use ORS and now African Pride Moisture Miracle line and it works wonders and it’s under $5. Far as conditioners; I use Suave and Aussie those are my favorites and for shampoo anything that is moisturizing.

      And? Hair is still hair and you should have a routine to nourish and care for it whether it's relaxed or not. Not having to detangle natural kinks and coils is what makes the relaxer haircare process much more convenient. The results of smooth and silky hair is preferrable to some women who do not look well suited with shrinkage, kinks and coils.

    You could henna your hair until you're ready to commit to the grays. That will turn the grey's an reddish orange and give you streaks overtime. It's really pretty when I've seen it done

    omg i have been natural for 4 years and i dont miss this relaxer method at all. even though i resort to wearing my hair in bomba twists or single braids and my hair doesnt take well to wash and go's because my hair is prone to single knots and its super thick 4c, i still cant see ever resorting to relaxers again. more power to all who uses relaxers. its funny cus i still enjoy seeing relaxer process by megz..been watchin for years when her twin used to help her do her touch ups in parents home bathroom.

    Thank you for this! It's June and I hadn't relaxed my hair since January after under relaxing with Mizani Butter Blend Lye. Just been wearing crochet and ponytails because I didn't want to deal with the process. Tried the ORS no-lye and the pre-part method. The relaxer was more liquidy than I'm used and I got a little worried about tangling and time taking down the twists at the end, but it came out great! I was able to get it bone straight which is what I wanted because I workout which makes it more wavy. My hair grew a lot under those crochet. Thanks, will definitely use this method again!

    How long is your relaxer application/processing time? Your hair looks great: straight, but not fried out.

    Sometimes I don’t understand the point of doing so much work to “ take care “ of your hair just to never wear it like you want to. We strive so hard to do the most to our hair but limit how we actually want to wear it. We’re all about the protective style, which is cool. But I just want to rock my sh*t 😅
