Answer 1

Girl I got thick hair that is uncontrollable if i don't have a good perm. I don't do weaves so I got to take care of what I got. I perm it about every 10 to 12 wks I know some do sooner perms but I think over processing causes breakage. In btw perms I make sure I wash my hair every other week and be sure to condition. I discovered the bomb conditioner by Proclaim, its actually Conditioning Cholesterol with Protein. You simply allow it to sit on hair 5 to 15 mins after washing comb through and then wash out. Girl when I use this my hair is soft, shiny, untangled, and bouncy. After I wash I wrap my hair with Motions Foam Wrap, then blow dry while wrapped. After I finish drying I put African Pride Hot Six Oil (smooth around the wrap) Right before I comb it out, then spray with Proclaim Oil Sheen. Then I flat iron out the kinky roots and BAM! Girl My hair has great shine, bounce, and great body. Now if u want to add more body, u can put about four medium to large rollers (depending on the length of your hair) in the top of your hair and re wrap the bottom, I do that before I go to bed and I sleep with my hair like that at night. I suggest always wrapping your hair up at night, tied with a satin wrap scarf. Anyways u would only half to set it like that once every other week at the time you wash it. It works girl try it u cant go wrong with a wrap. Its easily maintained with simply spraying it with oil sheen and most time its comb out n go!

Just for clarification perms and relaxers are two different things. I know some women of color use the term "perm," but when asking questions pertaining to our hair it becomes very confusing...so let's get har savvy ladies and use the proper terms for hair, kisses
