I relax my hair every two months after stopping the whole stretching thing. My hair is thicker, longer and has almost 0 breakage. stretching looks great on you, but for me I was able to go from shoulder length to waist length hair once I stopped in just a year. You really have to stay in tune with your hair to know what it wants. Great video as usual

I love being apart of the relaxed community ❤❤❤ thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences!!!! Your hair is THRIVING! Give me alllll the chemicals 😭😭

Oh my goodness, your hair is so long and healthy and pretty❤

22:05 Beautiful! I only relax my hair once or twice a year, as well. I put mine in August, and will not be relaxing again until April or May of 2024. Now it’s time to protective style. My styles include braid outs, knotless braids, or I pin curl and leave it pinned in a cute style until my next relaxer in 2024. Thank you for sharing.❤

I feel you on the washing. I use the ORS neutralizer first before I use the Motions one because the ORS is a sulfate shampoo and it lifts everything off better. That way the motions neutralizer acts like a moisturizing shampoo before my conditioning treatment. Got to get every little bit of relaxer out.

SO SATISFYING! Your hair is so shiny, healthy, and bouncy. I love it! I am definitely going to follow your tip for the color rinse when I relax my hair next week.

Your hair looks so healthy and shiny! I just went back to relaxers in May this year have touched up at every 10 weeks but starting in January I am going for every 4 months maybe 5 if I can 😁Love your videos and hair is beautiful

Been waiting on this video all week. ❤❤❤

you’re so funny lol I love it!

You are really good doing your home relaxer. My hair dresser does the same as you , she only relax my regrowth and washes my hair with the neutralising shampoo as much as you until there is not a trace of pink. Then she washes again with Davines shampoo and Davines conditioner, ( Italian Organic Range ); twice. My favourite leave in conditioner is Revlon Uniq One 👌

I was wondering how you got your hair to have so much volume and movement, and it’s really because you’re not relaxed straight straight. Your hair is straighten to a slight wave? Maybe I’ve been processing my hair too straight with relaxers, because I barely keep texture.

Every time I watch your videos, I get the itch to relax my hair. ❤ Do you do more of a texlax? It looks like your hair still has some texture, which is what I’d want if/when I decide to relax!😍

If you ever go natural you’re gonna love it AND your hair will be even more beautiful 📌

How long does it take you to relax you hair from second 1 where you start applying it until you wash it out? Some relaxed girls like hairlicious say it shouldnt be more than 25 minutes overall, because to have stronger hair you should relax like 85-90% max, not full bone straight, leaving some texture makes it stronger
