I used the kid version texturizer on mine and my daughters hair yesterday. It was enough for me to slather all over mine and the last little bit I applied on hers later that day. I didn’t even part it any special way just made sure to apply to edges last. I applied mine within 5 min leaving it in for approx 2 minutes. Same thing with my little girl and washed it right out. Our hair came out perfect. Still curly, but mot tangled and hard to comb anymore. We have coarse 4c hair 😩

Literally the healthiest texturized I’ve ever seen! I myself am newly texturized (3 weeks now) and my hair is sooo much more manageable and is STILL SOFT! Wash days are way easier - only thing I’m missing now is all that length! Honestly if not for you, I wouldn’t have had the courage to do it - ❤

You just convinced me to do this. I have 4A curly hair and it gets real nappy at the roots. I have good curls, but it’s too much frizz and I can never do a wash and go bc of this. Im so tired of weaves and straightening my hair, so I might do this for the summer!
I have a question for anyone who can answer… why is it that my hair is SOOO much stronger and healthier with a texturizer? They say it weakens the hair but I ONLY experience breakage when I’m natural tbh. Unless I just don’t know how to care for my natural texture but it literally doesn’t make sense. Those chemicals give me length and strength!
@LifewithQuanda

Same , same! I feel like it’s because the hair is more manageable. Also it’s easier to detangle due to the looser texture and to properly apply products to every strand.

My ends were horrible when natural and those single strand knots. I found myself constantly trimming my ends. And my natural hair is crazy crazy thick. Wash day was literally an all day affair…
@kikicraig

The reason for that is because the more curly your hair is, the more tangles, fairy knots and split ends you incur FROM the FAIRY KNOTS. Looser curls (or straight hair) are less prone to breakage because of fewer knots/tangles. Hence why the hair SEEMS/Appear to grow faster, as well as having little to no shrinkage. This is why a lot of Natural Women with super long hair either wear it stretched (blown out), or in plaits/Braids. That way it can't get tangled or waayyyyy less prone to breakage due to no knots.

If anyone knows and sees this, when she says not to apply it in your hairs curly state, does she mean It should be applied to previously blow dried hair? (Like after I wash a few days before, blow dry as well, then apply texturizer a few days later)
when you mean it wont turn curly if you don’t already have curls so is it like a permanent wash and go but dry
What if my hair is two different textures? My hair is more coarse in the back and shrinks more than my front.
what if you have been relaxed for a year now with no new chemicals is that fine

I had my hair texturized by my stylist 2.5 years ago. I was texturized for about two years. When I washed my hair the next week my ends were completely straight. 😭 I usually apply oil on the ends of my hair. I think when she was rinsing it out the ends were straightened. I slowly grew out the texturizer these last few years. How do you protect your ends when you do a touch up on your roots?

does this actually loosen your curls though, like would my hair look longer since there’s less shrinkage?
Short answers to questions 1 & 2: This is NOT a Jerry Curl OR "Perm." It's a relaxer with oil added to it. What I'm trying to figure out for myself is just how exactly I want to do mine. The back of my head, mid head down and the perimeter is probably 4a. I shaved my head in 2020 and didn't know that about my hair. My crown however.............is like a coarse 4b not as tight as 4C. So I'm mentally trying to figure out how I can work the crown first and do the back and perimeter absolutely last. The struggle is REAL 😂

Or do you think i’m good to place it on top of the straightened hair(hasn’t been washed in a week).
