Hair Relaxers                      Sprite 9.jpg (2420 bytes)

 
The best solution for ultra-curly, coarse hair.types hair relaxers are a very diluted form of depilatory, meaning that they soften hair to the point where it can be restructured into a straighter form. The result is that curly, coarse and kinky hair looks smoother, shinier, and is more manageable.

I think you already know my opinion on this one, but I will say it again. Leave this to the professionals!  Don't try this at home. The chemicals in hair relaxers and hair straighteners are quite unpredictable. Even long time professional walk very carefully before this chemical hair treatment is attempted.
