I'm relaxing my hair in about a year when it gets longer. Simply CAN'T BE BOTHERED

This is just me personally, but I got my first relaxer when I was maybe 4 (I’m 26 now) and I have also transitioned and went natural for 5 years. I’m relaxed again. Surprisingly, my hair was a lot healthier and grew a lot longer and stronger when relaxed. I think it’s because it requires a lot less maintenance and less “being in your hair” I think it’s important to just know your hair, personally. Some people thrive natural, some people thrive relaxed.

I don't really think it has anything to do with protective styling or not protecrive styling but more so the single knots & tangles that comes with being natural. Its the reason im going back to being relaxed. When your hair is straightened you don't have to worry about those things because there aren't any curls to wrap around each other creating single strand knots & excessive breakage. That's just my thoughts on it.

NATURAL HAIR IS NOT FOR EVERYONE! I AM GLAD WE CAN OPENLY TALK ABOUT THIS.

Love it I tried going natural for 3 years and once I started my job which is 12 hours I realized I had zero time to care for my curls. Also I did not feel beautiful with my curls and I grew to hate them. Being natural doesn’t always mean you’re going to just love how the hair looks. Relaxing my hair has never done harm to me. I’m sure people can go into depth about the damaging of my hair well whatever I keep it moisturizer and trimmed and taken care of and that works for me. Live your best life people.

Ur mom did a great job of not overlapping the relaxer onto previously relaxed hair. She did better than most professional stylist I've seen on KZread.

I don’t even relax, but i love this videos, they have such a cool vibe

Ive been natural my whole life, never had a relaxer, dye or anything.😫 But for some reason I love watching these relaxing videos. 🥰

Are you coating your scalp with Vaseline for protection? I didn’t see that in the video. If you didn’t, you DEFINITELY should. It keeps your scalp from burning and the skin from breaking. And you can keep the relaxer in longer.

I am so ready to start relaxing my hair again!

still blows my mind that people care so much about what’s on top of someone else’s head 🤦🏽‍♀️ 😩 i’ve had relaxed hair since i was 6 years old, i’m 21 now and i just went natural 5-ish months ago (against my WHOLE family’s opinions) and i couldn’t care less about if someone has relaxed hair or not. 🤷🏽‍♀️ i just came here to enjoy the video 😂 but, of course, i couldn’t help but scroll thru the comments 🙄 some people just can’t keep their rude and unnecessary opinions to themselves. keep doin you, girl. you’re gorgeous 👏🏽😩😍 ignore all them irrelevant naysayers. do what makes you happy and most confident! ♥️

I just relaxed my hair yesterday and I’ve done it myself since I was 13. I always dilute my relaxer with some kind of oil,Like a single ingredient Argan oil. About 2-3 tbsp. It slows the processing down so you have more time to work it also helps to protect the hair strands from so much damage.

Girl. I tried to go natural but it is honestly not for me. Ppl try and push you to be natural sooo bad but they don’t be the ones that have to take care of it. I love my slick hair when it’s freshly relaxed! It’s the freaking best!!! I’ve literally been getting my hair relaxed since I was about 8!! It’s no turning back now.. I’m relaxed and i’m proud.

If you’re looking for something to get you bone straight you should look into Japanese straightening/thermal reconditioning. It usually is much less damaging than a relaxer and gives much straighter sleeker results. The only drawbacks are the price and the fact that new growth is much harder to hide.

Deep conditioning helped my natural hair become more manageable. I’m mid-back length now and the entire process is less time doing my hair than when I was relaxed because blow drying and straightening alone was a good 2 hour process😂 Natural hair routine: Shampoo and condition and detangle - 20 minutes Deep condition - 20 minutes Twist and curl (6-8 sections) - 20 mins Sleep overnight and take down in the morning Regardless, I’m happy you found something that works for YOU. Please be careful though, the ingredients in relaxers is more of a problem than using the relaxer. The chemicals in there cause migraines, hair thinning and scalp irritation, etc. Best of luck in your new hair journey❤️

I noticed this too. Maybe its a result of relaxing for so long. But then again my Dad never relaxed and as he got older his hair got straighter. Maybe its like going back to a child as most babies hair is straighter and get coarser as they get pas toddler age, who knows!

So glad I finally found a KZreadr who is relaxed !

*ATTENTION ⚠️* HERE ARE SOME MISTAKES I MADE RELAXING MY HAIR WHICH I ENCOURAGE YOU NOT TO MAKE: 1. I didn't do enough research - before I got my very first relaxer, I genuinely believed that I could turn my 4C hair to 4A. That was a bit embarrassing 😂 2. I oiled my scalp every single day - My scalp was extremely greasy and developed product buildup overtime. This actually prevents growth, as too much oil in the scalp can mess up with your natural hair oil balance the more, which leads to fragile and damaged hair. 3. I brushed and played with my hair too much - I now go by this one policy: *The less hair you pull out, the more hair you'll have.* When your fingers touch your hair too much, they can actually steal away natural oils, leading to dry and fragile hair strands. And don't even get me started with brushing 😅. Brush your hair when you need to, not when you want to. And don't be too rough with your hair. 4. I washed my hair every week but eventually started putting less oil in my hair - Okay, I know I said that I overused my oils, but eventually I got lazy and stopped oiling my hair (which is just as bad). There is nothing wrong with washing your hair once a week, but shampoo and oils go hand in hand. Shampoo takes out the dirt and oils, you use oils to moisturize hair again. But oiling my scalp less caused a lot of dandruff build up and breakage overall. 5. I used heavy products - Unless you have high porosity natural hair, I don't advice heavy products use. Putting too many products and putting too much of one product falls in the same category. You really just need a shampoo, hydrating conditioner, deep moisture treatment, leave in, curling poo, and a strong oil. Everything else is really extras. 6. I didn't part my hair - Mostly because I didn't know how. However, this made my hair harder to deal with. If your don't learn to part your hair in some way (whether with your hand or with clips), relaxed hair then becomes hard to manage. You can always watch videos on youtube to teach you how! That's all!

I love the results omg your hair is getting really long!♥️ I stopped relaxing my hair around a year and a half ago, it’s really tempting but I feel better now. My hair broke off a lot since I relaxed+Box dyed it so I decided to stop relaxing it, and I stick to just dyeing it. What I do though, is an aminoacid treatment every now and then😋. It doesn’t last that long but it helps with the texture. I still have really short pieces in the front but I hope they grow some day🤦‍♀️💔

honestly watching this video and scroling through the coments has made me feel a little bit more at ease with my relaxed hair because i have always had insecurities about it thanks so much lisa onuoha

For me I have my mom put my hair mini braids for about half a year. This helps me not have to manipulate my hair as much and it'll grow faster.

I'm like u, like I've been relaxing since I'm 7 or like that, cuz my hair is really really REALLY hard to handle, i really lived your video♥️ new subscriber

i think its so crazy that people say their hair is more manageable relaxed. i have 3c/4a hair and my hair was so tangled and a nightmare to detangle and style when it was relaxed.happy for your results though!!

everyone’s hair is different! what works for u may not work for others

100% recommend affirm relaxer kit, it’s boom! You should give it a try it will help.✨❤️

I enjoy watching your video your hair came out looking good and shining 😊✨( happy healthy hair journey👑✨)

Girl you do not have to explain why you relax your hair it is perfectly fine is your hair your choice. Love you 💜

I’m natural but it’s nice to see some relaxed hair videos... wish there was more. Everybody has a preference 💕

I've been using relaxers at home since forever lol. I love that ORS relaxer because it has actually been helping my hair grow. My hair is very thick and it doesn't cause damage, and it actually doesn't really irritate (burn).

My mum used to relax my hair all the time in primary school (elementary school) and then when I got into secondary school ( middle/high school) it used to be only at Christmas and during summer and I’d have braids during the school year. Now I’m 15 and only relax it once a year at summer but the ends are thin and so is my hair. How did you get your hair to be so thick and long. Also, love from London.

I have relaxed hair but want to completely natural. I still love to watch your videos. Very relaxing

I love your channel❤️and the fact that you have relaxed hair. There aren't many KZreadrs with relaxed hair 😞

I like seeing someone apply the hair relaxer with a brush and letting it sit on your hair, rather than combing the relaxer through your hair after it applied, this seems like a less harsh process.

your hair has grown a lot !!

When I was younger before relaxing my hair my mom greased my scab with Vaseline to keep it from burning before she finish my whole head

I always use the kids one and the one time I tried ORS my hair didn’t take to it at all. 😢😢 I’m going back to using the kids one because it made my hair really sleek. Great video sis !❤❤

FINALLY! Your hair looks so bomb, always asked myself how you do it 🤩

Hey Lisa, just wanna say you look waaaay more beautiful without makeup

Thank you for explaining because I have straight hair and these lady at the salon keep recommending me to get my hair relax and I was totally confused

Doing a marathon of all of your videos and I'm beyond glad I found this one today, cause precisely TODAY I got my hair straightened by my mom over the same method. Its been a while since I've been using this tecnic but somehow lately I found myself feeling ashamed of it cause some people critized me. Ppl seems to always wanna tell you what to do, but you know what? Fuck them. Only you know what's best for you, I decided not to let ppl tell me how I should treat my hair, life's too short to please em all. In conclusion, this encourages me to do what I think is the best. (Sorry about my English)

Thank you for this. I've always had my mom or a hair stylist relax mine and it's been relaxed for as long as I can remember but due to many life style changes recently, I attempted to be natural... Not for me. I have way too much hair, it's never felt so unhealthy until now and I work way too much to give it the care it needs. Back to relaxed I go. Can't wait for it to look as nice as I used to have it, hardly even wear it down anymore cause I don't like how it looks. Guess it isn't for me and that's okay. Maybe if I ever have more time to care for natural hair, I'll try again 😋

I didn’t go natural because my permed hair was damage, my hair was actually super healthy and pass my shoulders. But I was tired of being so high maintenance about it. It’s chemical in your hair, so you have to be careful because a short period of neglect could lead to a whole head of damage. As a natural I’m still learning, I transitioned in 2012. My hair is longer and more versatile and I don’t have to worry about rain, pool water, wrapping it every night, or even breakage. However all permed hair performs differently because of the type of natural hair. So whatever works go with it.

You are beautiful!! And this video is sooo helpful since at the moment, I have to put my relaxer in myself.

Your makeup and hair growth😍🥴

It’s so healthy and you’re gorgeous! 😍❤️!

can you guys just let black women do what they want with their hair? i specify black because i feel like the world feels like they’re entitled to tell us what’s “in style” or “professional”. white women can have short, long, colored, curly , you name it but the second a black woman relaxed her hair she’s trying to be white or everyone’s concerned about her hair health. her CHOOSING to relax her hair says nothing about who she is so just enjoy the video !!

Woke up like this... because good hair days start with my zala tapes MMMHMMM!

love your honesty

Hair goals like this can come true... if you have a zala clip in set!

Been natural for 3 years, I just remembered why I transitioned 😅😅 back to the silk press I go😁

If you leave the relaxer longer you will get straighter hair and won’t need to use the flat iron as much, therefore reducing the heat damage. I also recommend you to use a protein treatment, relaxed hair opens up hair cuticle, preventing the hair from locking up the hydration, protein treatment rebuild those cuticles, your hair will get stronger and healthier. 🤗

you’re result was beaaautiful💕 honestly I’m from the UK and I feel like this whole talk on natural hair being a cult or difficult or whatever😂I only really hear that type of talk (as in comments) in American videos like do the majority of black woman in America have relaxed hair or what?

This was so good. I was looking for another biracial gurl with similar hair to mine. I haven't relaxed my hair in years because im always doing different stuff with it. Colouring,bleaching ,braiding,wigs extentions, poufs, you name it ive done it. But i did a big chop during quarantine and now i look like a clown. Funny little half curls,frizz,ringlets everything. I gotta relax it.

Your hair line is SO BEAUTIFUL

Uuuummm can we get a tutorial on this makeup look cause girl 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for the coconut oil suggestion! I feel like breakage happens during the relaxer the most when your hair is dry and fragile.

Just a tip if you want but maybe grease the scalp to protect the scalp. That’s what I do and when I don’t I get burns . Also I comb it through the only the new growth to get best results rather than having it on my head for long cause my head so sensitive . Your hair looks good sis

Wait wait wait, we need a review in that Dyson please!! I’m relaxed and just purchased one!

My hair breaks in the front😭 so I know how you feel🤦🏾‍♀️. But I’m believing that my hair will be thick and healthy again 2020🙏🏾🙏🏾. And my mom does my relaxers at home too

yes girl!! we’ll both be working on that in 2020 💕

Ah! Your hair grew so much so fast, looks pretty! Super pretty and so do you 😊

I've been natural for 6 years and I love hair relaxing videos.

I was relaxed for so many years and my hair was healthy. I only went natural because I had never gotten a chance to have natural hair since I had it relaxed so young. It's only been a year since I've been natural and I LOVE my hair but it's honestly too much to manage because it's thick as well as the fact that products are SUPER expensive while in med school so I'm relaxing it today :)
