Self Relaxing Video - Part 3

This self relaxing video utilizes the "vertical application" method providing you more coverage in less time when I texlax. I also implemented the practice of adding "silk amino acids - SAA" to my relaxer which also provides a barrier from the harsh effects of the sodium hydroxide (lye) and imparts silk protein in my cuticles. This also buys me more time when applying the relaxer and reduces burning and scalp irritation.

I just wanted to know where you purchased the silk amino acid and how much it cost

[thatgirrl5]

i purchased it at lotioncrafters(dot)com - i can't remember how much but it wasn't expensive, it's been awhile ago

[foxyqueen08]

Why didnt you use a texturizer (since its already mixed)?

[thatgirrl5]

because the silk amino acids penetrate deeply in the hair shaft while the cuticle is at its most open state and that i can control the amount of "buffer" in my relaxer. any relaxer can be used as a texturizer, depending upon the amount of time you keep it on

[foxyqueen08]

I heard that you can use a conditioner, with a little bit of oil as well for a similar milder result, have you tried that before?

[thatgirrl5]

yes, that's correct...i just like the silk protein, it's your choice.

[kinoni86]

i dont use gloves either, but atleast i use a stick or something to apply the relaxer on my roots. honestly be careful, dont really think its healthy to be using ur fingers.

[Flurolamp]
