Hollyberry Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Has anyone ever relaxed their hair? My hair is kinda wavy and I am thinking about getting it relaxed/straightened for my trip. I have a really good flat iron but I dont want to be flat ironing my hair every morning for 1 hour :shrugs Does anyone know if this works or if this is a waste of money? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinsChik305 Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 My friend got it relaxed and it never returned to its natural self. I think it depends on what kind of hair you have. If its curly, its probable that itll stay straight/wavy. Youd have to ask the hair stylist whos doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TariAJ Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I'm assuming you mean a chemical relaxer... It depends on your hair's texture. My hair is really thick and wavy/nappy, so I relax my hair on a regular basis. I still need to use a flat iron after I wash it if I want it bone straight. It makes your hair more susceptible to damage (especially if you color your hair as well), and you can't undo it unless you grow it out...so be certain it's what you want before you do it.
