Relaxer Day: Full Relaxer Video

If you follow me on Instagram, you would have seen the clips of my recent relaxer results. This time I went to a salon, after realising that the box relaxers (no-lye) that I used over the past 2 years did more damage than good and dried out my hair. I felt that I needed a professional to handle my hair, and I looked for one who was willing to listen to how I wanted my hair done.

These are the steps that the stylist took to get my hair relaxed:

1) Applied Mizani Protective Pre-Treatement
2) Followed with Butter Blend butter base
3) Applied the relaxer for 17 minutes
4) Did a corrective relaxer application on my previously relaxed hair that was under-processed. This took another 13 minutes
5) Rinsed my hair with Mizani phormulating shampoo
6) Olaplex treatment
7) Blow dried and flat ironed and tadaaaa!


Finally, I have just uploaded my first Youtube video, on the entire process above. If you are wondering how to relax your hair in the right way, have a look at this video for additional tips that you can apply or show your stylist.

I am really excited about starting this part of my blog on Youtube. I am hoping to be consistent with at least 2 videos a month - starting slowly but consistently.

See the video below, and enjoy :-)

Hair Update: 2 Weeks Post Relaxer

Hi there

I have been working on my regimen for the next 10-13 weeks, as I wait for my next relaxer day.

I plan on having a very minimalistic routine, just to give my hair a break from continuous manipulation.

My goal over the next 6 months of the year is to retain at least 3 inches and get to armpit length. Currently I am at Shoulder length, but I am going to baby my ends to
So here we go:

1) Wash and Deep Condition every 1-2 weeks
2) Dust my ends every 6-8 weeks
3) Protective style most of the time with wigs or halo braids/ twists
4) NO Heat, except for blow dry every month to keep my new growth stretched
5) Join a hair growth challenge
6) Take a healthy hear vitamin daily
7) Cover my hair at night with my satin bonnet

What are your hair goals for the remaining part of the year?
