Hey sistahs!!
I’ve been having this long time itch to texlax my natural hair. I wanted looser curls and increased day to day manageability. My 5 year natural hair journey taught me so much about my hair and how to care for it that I know I’ll be successful on this new journey that I’m embarking on. I’ll likely do a Q&A video in the future if you want to know more about why I decided to do this etc. I hope you’ll continue to support me on this so called “hair journey” and until the next vid!
Check out the video and as always, leave your evidence and thoughts ▼▼▼▼
XOXO,
Ng

How To CORRECTLY Texlax Texturize 4C Natural Hair | Ng's Evidence
UPDATE 8/7/2015:
All products used to make this video were purchased by me. I wanted to give you girls direct access most if not all the products I used, so above you will find Amazon links. They are affiliate links, meaning if you purchase via the link I get a couple of coins from Amazon. Feel free NOT to use them (i.e. search the normal way on Amazon), just wanted to make sure I keep it 100% with my sistahs =)
I have 4c hair too and have been natural for 10 years...I'm Over it!!! Manageability being the biggest issue. Everything takes to darn long. Been contemplating texlaxing for a year. I'm sold now! Your hair is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing!!😊
Aren't you nervous that it won't look the same way tho? Don't you think your hair may look different or even become straight?
+Yoits Mee I am very nervous and after watching several pros and cons videos, I have definitely changed my mind. I can't commit to it!
I texlaxed my 4c hair after 4 years being natural and it's really been a God send. My hair texture looks the same (everyone still thinks I'm natural lol) but my curl pattern is stretched out and I have significantly less tangling. I did a lot of research before taking the plunge but I have no regrets.
I did the same thing yesterday, I was a 4c and doing my hair took FOREVER I literally hated it and had enough so I texlaxed it. Its been the best decision I have ever made it looks natural but just more manageable.
Rose Lavi 4c hair's so cute. If you don't like our beautiful & unique texture...Girl bye! :)
What a smart move to do a test run on shed hair and to add conditioner! This is the best video i've seen thus far, I feel more prepared to texture my hair in the future!
Duuu thats not new.. Its always been that way
How smart was this, y'all?!?!?!?! I swear this makes the most sense: to use shed hair for the test run and to use two relaxer mixes to see how it would react to your hair!!!!! SMARTY PANTS!!!!!!!! : ) I've been wanting to texlax my hair for a while and now I know exactly how I should go about it. Thank you soooo much! xo- from NYC
Your comment just seriously made my Saturday! I'm so happy you found this video and it was helpful. 🙌🏾😀 I'm also from NYC, much love!
Fatima Deen. The directions have always said to do a test first.
@@sophiam9886 Yes. The directions does n has always said that lol. ( What was the point of tagging me just to repeat the same thing I said.. Why the "but"? )
@@sophiam9886 Oooh ok. Thats my misinterpretation dear. "But whatever".. Hehehehehe--Didn't mean to irritateYa. Its fine. Thanks 4the clarification.
So you flat iron after tex laxing? 🤔Also as I watch more videos on tex laxed hair I'm starting to think that a lot of people on here are actually Tex laxed and saying they're all natural!! 🙄The way your hair hung after the tex laxing is how all the hair looks in these videos!! And I'm going crazy 🙃trying to figure out why my hair isn't hanging!! My hair never hangs when wet!! 😂I'll be 4 years natural next month, never flat ironed or tex laxed...
I said the same thing , when you watch old videos you can see a difference too
my gma an retired cosmologist pointed this out to me and I refused to believe it
F. Jones maybe your hair needs more moisture
F. Jones Wouldn't their hair be hanging because they just did the treatment? I have unprocessed 4C hair and it hangs while wet, it can depend a lot of thickness and length.
F. Jones exactly
Such a blessing to have sisters who can help you. The end result is beautiful, not too straight and nice texture, beautiful sheen.
***** Thanks for checking out my channel and subbing! 💖
I am natural and sometimes I like to see how texlaxed women do their hair. Your hair looks beautiful and it is very full. I respect people's decisions to do whatever they feel to do with their hair.
+Red J'dore Thanks for being so open-minded!
NG's Evidence you're welcome and thank you.
You mean I'm not the only one with a different hair texture in the back then the rest of my head? I'm not alone! Tfs
+Jewell Oconnor haha...no, we live.
I have five different textures. Two in the back. Two int the front. And one in the middle.
Looser in the back???
Wow we should have her own groups
Right, I got a texturizer the other day and just realized I had a looser curl in the back so now the back of my hair is straight and the front is straight and the rest is curly
I really wanted to see it dry without the cut and protein treatment
She has convinced me to finally texturize my 6 year plus natural 4C hair.
Including the deep treatment and olive oil is genius just perfect!!
Sometimes all our hair needs is a little boost to look good and be healthy.
Thank you so much NG's Evidence :)
The God giving 4c hair on our head is already good with or without a "little boost" lol
What a genius , I would of never thought to do a test run on dead hair , genius !
Did your scalp burn / tingle ?
Tai Banks Hey Tai! Yes I'm all about practice makes perfect and I didnt want my hair to be the "tester" lol. I used a lye relaxer which is harsher on the scalp than no-lye, but more gentle on the hair. So I made sure my sister BASED my scalp really well with vaseline and I was also starting on dirty hair. Towards the end of the 10mins I started to feel some tingling, ie the I could tell I had a relaxer on my hair vs the feeling of only conditioner. But I did not feel any burning if that makes sense. No burns at all! Hope this helps 😀
NG's Evidence Right , right . Makes perfect sense . Thank you so much & Enjoy your weekend .
Nothing genius about it. The instructions in all texturizers and relaxers tells u to do that. ALWAYS been that way. It also tells u the CORRECT way to comb thru your coils to loosen yr texture. Nothing new.
thanks for sharing! Been natural 4 years n just tired lol.
Girl I feel your struggle!
Going on 5 yrs and tired..granted this is the most hair I've ever had but I need a half way point and I think I've found it
Hello ng's evidence, o my hair it is curly 4B you think best I do what ? texturing or relaxer ?
Best texlaxed 4c hair video on UA-cam!! Thank you so much. 3 && a half years natural, && I'm ready to texlax
AWWWW!! Thank you so much! Please share or let us know your results. We need more texlaxed 4C girls here on YT. What's your reason for wanting to texlax?
Your hair is so thick and looks good. Love the result, and thank you for showing some love to my channel.
Omg thank you for this video because it's so hard to find a video for 4c hair. And your hair is goal can't wAit for my hair to grow like yours!
Saran Thanks for checking out my channel girlie!
No problem! And I'm glad I did.
Saran i have some.vids with 4c hair ..check them out
will do Saran !
Thanks I'll check your channel out right now
even though i don't personally want to texlax i love the process and testing you did beforehand. excellent video. thanks!
+Monique P Thanks Monique! I really appreciate you saying this!!
You are so lucky to have a sistah team to help you when you need it!
This is the first vid I've seen with a test run - thank you for the thoroughness of this video
+Breeann Morgan-Hunt Glad you found something unique in it!
Very well done--both the video and the actual texturizer application. You are so blessed to have two sisters supporting you in this process,
New subbie! I'm thinking about texlaxing and this video was so informative. I have watched numerous videos & this one is the best by far. You have made me feel so much better about my decision! Thanks Hun!
Testing the mixture on shed hairs is GENIOUS! I'm strongly considering texturizing my hair and this method will help me make sure that my hair doesn't get too straight. Thank You for sharing!
This was really smart.im so done natural hair is much more damaging I trimmed,protective style,moisturized and it still knots up bad and break no other things I can think of
Come on editing! Lol I loved how you filmed the whole thing Dimples! Your hair is thick sha! Can't wait to see how you will be styling it now.
Geri GeraldinetheGreat How did I not see your comment earlier! 🙈Thank you as always for your support and yes I will def be doing some style vids :)
thank God for sisters. great video
Yes o! #teamsisters
The part with your sisters was so cute omg you're very luckyyy :)
Awww thank you!
You're so blessed to have sisters that help you with your hair
Sis your hair came out greattttttttt omg 😍
IHeartHair89 Thanks sis! you again were a big help! 💖
Okay this is the best texturizer video I've seen on youtube. thank you for sharing the details bc them other videos had me lost. i like the method you used.
This is like a science experiment I love it
+Ayanna Hogan lol! didnt think of it that way, but I def see it!
Great video!!
Haven't relaxed my hair in 7 years (Late Sept/ Early Oct 2013) & I've been thinking about doing this method for a few months now. I'm about to Tex-Lax later on today! I have 3C and it gets tangled so easily! I'm just over dealing with it! Thanks for having a ratio to go by! ORS is my favorite line to use.
I am 12 my 4c hair is a struggle especially with school I am currently in 7th grade seems every one has either beautiful curly hair or straight I have neither its just looks nappy and I have come across a few curls but only in the middle ugh
Your 4c hair is beautiful & unique! Cherish it. 💜
JAIDA GREEN yes it is very beautiful I have the same hair. Don't give up with the right products and keeping your hair moisturized you can bring out your curls and ypu won't even think about a perm
You can love and embrace your natural 4C hair texture by not degrading it and calling it "nappy" for starters.
If your doing it just because of everyone else don't do it. I texlaxed and I have no problem showing my naps when new growth comes. I'm proud to show the stretch and my roots. This is part of our culture and it's fun to experiment sometimes. I don't have shame in my naps n I don't have shame in my texlaxed. You see my point? I care about me not anyone else.
this comment old asl but same girl only thing i can say you could try is flat ironing your hair a few times after i flat ironed mine twice my curl pattern got looser cause of heat damage which made it easier to mange lmao and when you comb it wet it first and use lots of product and do twist outs
omg your texlax got bone straight...that's why I'm scared to do it but you hair is very thick & looks pretty healthy! did your hair pattern change long term?
I really want to do this but I'm nervous my last relaxer was 2013 rock the tapped look until December 2015 my really grew ... now I'm thinking to relax my hair for better time management and styling it's tough to style my natural hair
How do you feel in 2020 about texlaxed hair?... are you still texlaxed, full relaxed or back to natural. Any advice for a natural considering texlaxing
I textlaxed after 4 years of going natural. Ended up having to big chop again. My hair (4c) just cannot endure any chemical. Hope you have better results.
+Mybrwnisbeautiful Hin oh really?! Sorry to hear that. I hope youre on a better and healthier hair journey now =)
OMG!....I've been thinking about texlaxing but was afraid it would come out looking completely relaxed. This method is IT! I'm so going to mix in conditioner with the relaxer.
or use a texturiser instead :) they're a lot milder so over-processing is harder
+Rikki Aoki 👍👍👍
The beginning test is SO smart!
This is the video I needed to make a decision to use oil vs. conditioner! Thank you for this!
Wow, this is beautiful, NG! I would love to see what it looks like completely air-dried, before the blowout to get a better sense of the new texture. Any pics? :-)
BeautyNaturelle Hey girlie! I usually dont keep my hair out to fully dry without it being twisted/braided. So I could definitely take pictures of how my hair looks when dry, after I take the twists/braids out. I'll post them on IG later this week! Thanks for watching =)
Awesommme. Look forward to it!
I love your results, and you got an even curl pattern all around! I'd really love to see how you touch up your roots in the future
+TWANation This will def be a video! I'll prob end up doing it again in another 2-3 months for a total 6 month stretch
Trust and believe I am not trying to be critical when I say the following:
The term “texlax” to me is just covering a truth....just say that “I got a perm that I didn't let sit for that long”. Perming is perming, tbh.
I thought that we were moving forward as natural sistas, but then I see this. 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Good Lord...there is NOTHING wrong with our hair...no matter how kinky it is. Like someone else said, I'd rather just straighten it, not do all of this....
Then you have to keep it up, like a perm...cause it is well, a perm, you know?
But I will say this...if she's happy, fine. But me, nah, I'm not doing this.
Texlaxers (?) Are not the same as perms

This video is super informative and helpful! I love watching hair videos! Great video girl!
Nikki G aww thanks Nikki! you know I love your channel!
Thank you so much! You're so sweet! I can't wait to see more from you!
soie es
Job WELL DONE! Excellent and informative video, which moved along very quickly and was straight to the point.
+Lisa McKinney Im glad it was helpful! I try to make videos that I'd like to watch lol!
nice result. I'm thinking it would be best to leave it on for a little lesser than 10mins overall. and perhaps add some vaseline to the hair before application, like some others advised.
The intro song is strangely satisfying....your hair looks so cute and amazing boo boo
+true trini girl hahaha! I think I know what you mean! Thanks for the encouraging words!
Very well informed. It was definitely smart to test it out before applying. However I'm not feeling the end result I don't like perms but I like hair to be all straight or all kinky o hate in between or roots that look kinky and straight ends. Not my style but to each their own
SIstah Sistah(my Nigerian sister), first thanks for showing some love on my channel,
thanks for bring us along with your journey and your hair looks fabulous, being natural my self I'm at a stage I'm like "she nah by force?"..lol
Im bout to go indulge in more of ur vids
ps we should def keep in touch..:*
Do you have any updates on how your texturizing is going after some touch ups?
Best video I saw on texlaxing. Many thanks
Best texlax results I've seen!!!!
zheahra Aww thank you for saying this!
This was very helpful last time I did this to mine it was straight in the middle of my strands I know what to do now
Great video and beautiful hair!! Can't wait to see your new regimen!
***** Thanks girl! Gotta plan that video out soon =)
Yeah i texturized my hair awhile back and. And i must say i love it!
Awesome video!:). I like how you did the test run first. That is a good idea. You hair looks pretty and healthy. I just subscribed to your channel.
+Kimberly Purpoz Yes! doing a test run is really important. Wasnt about to risk 5 years of work without testing first, lol! Thanks for subbing Kimberly!
your hair turned out great!
q naturally thanks girl! 😀
thank you!my hair is nappy im sure its past 4c. lol but i just dont wanna put a full perm in my head,so thank you i definitely will try this method.
+Donica Jones Did you try it? If so, how did it turn out?
Not yet im kinda scared
See, these videos are so informative. I've got 4a in the front and my crown, 3c in the back right and left. 2a in the back center and 4b on the sides. so bascially I need to apply the texturizer to the 4b and 4a spots first because I don't want my already loose curls to go straight.
Girl you have a beautiful head of hair, talk about a crown!
I liked the texlaxed result, but i felt the hairdresser trimmed off too much hair, and you were a five year natural. Hair relaxers tend to damage hair long run, in two to five years the damage usually evident. Even if you wash and condition the hair on a regular basis, the damage is there, but then there is a small chance that you might be one of the few people that can take hair relaxers. So i hope you success with your relaxed hair. (If hair relaxers manufacturers could make relaxers that were less damaging on afro-american hair i would texlax my hair too.)
This video is amazing ! You go girl
Azure B Thanks beau! Im so happy many girls here are giving my an approval. I know using relaxers on the YT can be sorta taboo lol
This is brilliant! Never heard of mixing relaxer and conditioner.
+Tara Chandler It can be done, lol. Actually, ANYTHING can be done, we just need to test it out first =)
I love this soo much ready for a new hair journey been natural for 3 years
Omg your hair came out beautiful
nevaeh tieasha yay, two comment from you, lol! I'm so glad I still get an approval from my natural sisters!
Idk if you'll remember but was your hair air dried, blow tried, straightened as the finial result?
I've been wanting to texlax my hair! Yours looks great!
Wokie L. Benson Glad to hear it looks good to those watching too =)
You get a protein treatment and deep conditioner the same day you texlaxed? Seems like alot of different products in one day, not sure if you should have all of those services in one day but I'm not a hairstylist.
How many boxes of relaxer do you use for a whole head? would one be enough? my natural hair is to my shoulders
buy 2 to be safe.
Your hair looks so cool! Great video!
***** Thank you Gretel!
It looks really great but the look I’m going for is slightly less straight. My hair is 4abc and I want it to be more 4b
Your hair came out great. Have you retouched since? Aaaand do you flat iron it or wear it mostly curly?
+Flairelle I havent retouched yet, trying to stretch for 6months, so I've been doing protective style since the new growth is showing it's colors lol
+NG's Evidence I know how it is. I am six months post. The ne growth is a pain
Are you relaxed or texlaxed?
Flairelle how long are you hoping to stretch for?
Does it still keep its wavy/curly pattern when it's wet?
So I guess this method is basically a milder version of a relaxer..so is it the same as someone applying a relaxer two or three times a year??? 🤔🤔
Nice results tho.
You are lucky to have your sisters' help. Your hair is very long. Very beautiful head of hair! TFS #IAmNoirTV #redteam
Your sisters are awesome,they disld a good job,your method is great,love it
Loving It!! Great job!!
mzblackpearlz Thanks girl! I love your channel BTW 😍
Your hair came out really nice I am thinking about textlaxing
great video
Thank you so much!
Love this video and team effort!!!!
your hair looks amazing, thank you for the video.
You're welcome, I hope you found it helpful!
Very helpful. Will be doing this to my hair in a few months. Thanks again.
When do you texlax, pls let me know how your results go :) Do you make YT videos?
I do not make videos but ive been thinking about it. But I'll let you know the results. Thanks
Do a follow up on caring for your texlaxed hair process
beautiful results!
+t washington Thanks girl!
Oh wow ur hair is so beautsss! x
Sandra Ajewole thanks hun!
Can you provide an update? Are you still using this? have you decided to stop? Interested as I am debating on trying a texturizer
Your sisters rock good job ladirs
nevaeh tieasha Yes they are very talented and more importantly, helpful! Your girls will do the same for each other 😉
totally love this and you great spirit
Great video girl !
SAIRASSECRET Thanks so Saira! ♡I love your channel.♡ I see you just posted a video, I'm off to watch it now :)
why does it keep some hair curly and make some hair straight?? I'm so nervous to get a texturizer because I don't want straight hair I want loose curly hair. should I do it or not?
it made my hair curly i literally left it on for 5 min. This was back in Feb. my hair now is getting really kinky so i might do it this weekend. i say the best thing to do is watch how your hair looks once you put it on. It literally transforms right in front of you.
You just have beautiful hair all together.😭
Loving your results! I would definitely love to see you do a review of Straight Silk Spray Heat Protectant by JuniorLabs. It gets my hair silky smooth 🔥
How many boxes of relaxer did you buy to this? Was one box enough?
This helped so much thank u!
Loving this! New subscriber!!!! xx
+Salt and Light Girls You just made my Tuesday, thanks babe!
I texturized my hair with A "just for me" texturized and I will say it didn't take or achieve the looser look I was going for , its kinda the same.
I'm thinking about doing this same procedure but wondering if I should leave in for maybe 7 to 8 mins
+Keya Keyz The already made texturizers are very weak and need to be left in the hair longer. I didn't have any experience using texturizers, and think I was more experienced using relaxers from before I went natural, which is why I decided to use a relaxer instead. Before you give it a try again, do what I did and save some strands of your hair, apply the relaxer or texturizer to the shed hairs, and see what results you like best. Lemme know how it goes!
+NG's Evidence I was thinking of using loose strands of my hair I would definitely give it a go! Thanks for the feedback 😃
It will work. I use to make a mixture of olive oil and conditioner to taxlax my hair. I however figured it out to late as when I started my hair was already too damaged so I decided to go natural.
Thanx for posting as Im contemplating after another 2 years of natural growth
I just did one and left it on for 5 minutes and it did absolutely nothing. When can I try again?
I'd do it again in 12 weeks
Great video and tips 💋
Sandrine Kamuzinzi Thank you Sandrine :)
Ng is it advisable to texlax short like ear length hair? Will it stop the growing process?
What's the maintenance of this? How do you upkeep it?
Can u tell me What kind relaxer u put on ur Hair because I want my Hair soft not rough
How often do you texlax? How much heat do you use on ur hair between treatments?
+Kay Bee I've only texlaxed once time since this video, and this was about 2 weeks ago, so I;ll say every 6 months. Minimal heat in btwn treaments. My hair is normally in wigs, so I keep my hair braided underneath.
This was smart
+Tear'n Paper Thank you! Love your YT name :)
sure lol thanks
This video was very informative.
