i straighten my hair almost every night for at least an hour........?

Question

i can't take it anymore!!! i want to use a hair relaxer but i im worried it'll ruin my hair should i do it? is it safe?

Answer 1

Talk to a professional stylist. Relaxers can be very damaging but so can a straightening iron. People usually use it too hot.

Answer 2

Speak to a good hairdressers. But i would say that a hair relaxer cant possibly be as bad as using hair straighteners an hour every night. By relaxing your hair u will save yourself time too and altho the relaxant may be chemical, it cant do anymore damage than the straigheneres do.

Answer 3

Theres something else thats its better for your hair and it can make it straight. Its almost like a relaxer but its not its called "Easy straight" its made basicly for white women that have curly hair, un like the relaxers thats are made for women of color ( you know what i mean ) Also, you can always relax your hair but just buy a really mild one, they have different typed, and mix it with hair treatment. I done it before and my hair din't get that damage, either way your still goin to harm your hair a bit, but you are doing that already by fixing it everyday

Answer 4

i used a chemical relaxer for about 2 years, after that my hair had a little wave but stayed almost strait. it was really curly before that, the first time i burnt my scalp but after that i had no problems. i also had it done in the salon don't do the home ones they will ruin your hair

Answer 5

Why? I have straight hair and roller set it every night as i want it to be curly. however i would never perm it as i do not want to damage my hair

Answer 6

I did once and since I colored my hair, I ended up melting it. It took years to get strong again.
