Relaxed hair?

Well i have relaxed hair and i hate it. MY hair is horribly damaged and my ends burn up very quickly. I've done the relaxer 4 or 5 times in the last 3 years. My hair is thick and used to be really, really curly. I have a few curls left but i want something that might bring them back. Any suggestions on shampoos, conditioners, leave-in-conditioners, treatments, or anything you can think of. Please i would really appreciate it.



Relaxed hair?

A relaxer permanently changes the structure of your hair, so you can not bring back the curls. The only thing that you can do to have curly hair again is let new hair grow back in. So, get your ends clipped and be patient. I ended up cutting my hair into a super short, sexy style because my hair looked so horrible with straight pieces and a few random curly pieces.

there is a product that you can purchase on amazon called ... curlaway that supposedly will soften your curls as much as you use the product, but will not have harsh affects on your hair and will allow your curls to return as you dont use the product. I dont know anyone who has tried it, but it is supposed to be a good product. If you try it let me know how it works.

since your hair is relaxed already and u want curls try putting some rollers in your hair overnight and maybe during the morning or when your not doing nothing that day and if that doesnt make an app. with your stylist to put curls in it 4 u.

Olive Oil, my dear.



Wash, rinse, then a dab of olive oil in palm of hand. Rub through the obvious damaged part of your hair. Let it soak in overnight. Do your washing as usual.



Look for PH balanced shampoo. Don't bother with the "special" shampoos. Your hair is dead. Nothing is going to bring it back to life. But olive oil will coat it with a very thin layer of mineral oil that will allow you to do with it 'as you will'.



Only your hair will know how often and how much. Let it whisper to you. Take pre-natal vitamins. Ask any pregnant woman... Her hair and nails grow fast! It won't hurt you and will definately help you stay healthy.

I know exactly how you feel about relaxed hair causing major damage. Relaxers are like addictive drugs to the hair.



Many of my friends, including myself have discussed how relaxers have permanently changed the texture of our hair, caused damage, etc. I don't understand why african american hair products have not improved. There should be a healthy alternative to relaxers at this day and age.



I have tried many products and nothing seems to completely restore my hair to the way it was in the past. Pantene has created shampoo and conditioner for african american hair. The pantene products help my hair along with the use of olive oil and hair mayonnaise.



Good luck to you.

1. Go to a stylist so they can remove all damage that can't be rehabed with product. ( While there get a consult on haircare specific to your needs, most stylist do this for no extra cost)



2. Buy products that moisturize.



3. If you don't want relaxed hair, stop relaxing. Slowly you can transition out of your relaxed tresses. Since you are not relaxing alot it might be easier for you. You will however, have to slowly trim/cut the relaxed hair out.
