Tips to grow hair after relaxer scalp burn?

Question

I got a relaxer that ended up burning the sides of my hair really bad and now there is like no hair there, like its really thin and i can feel my scalp when i touch it. So yeah it got burned pretty badly. Im really upset cause it never happened before and I am not used to not havin that lenght of hair as my hair used to be paast my shoulders,. I had to cut it because of the burn. So i am wondering if anyone has any tips on how to grow it back. Right now I just have it in braids because in the past that is how I grew my hair. But I just need tips from ppl who know about relaxer burns cause I don't know what to do with it after Itake my braids out. HELP

Answer 1

Most of the people who answered my question said that i should go see a dermatologist. well, i think that aloe vera gel or the aloe vera plant would help too because it is good for growing back hair and for healing burns. try to go to

Be careful with the braids. They pull the scalp and can aid in damaging the rest of your hair. Try vitamin E and protein (egg conditioner). Use the egg conditioner after washing the hair. And use the natural vitamin E to massage the scalp. It may take some time to notice a difference but it may help. You may also need to see a dermatologist and let them look at your scalp. But keep the relaxers away. Hopefully they haven't done too much damage to where it can't be repaired because one you kill the follicles the hair will not grow back.


I have gone natural for over a year now and it was the be thing I could have ever done.

Good luck..

Answer 3

I would just make sure to keep my ends trimmed, condition regularly, and do not put a another relaxer in it until it has grown out a lot. Relaxers can be a pain in the *** sometimes!

Answer 4

Stop using those relaxers! I haven't put that stuff in my hair in over five years. It damages your hair, as you know. Pressing your hair is better.

But, for your problem..I don't know. You may want to see a dermatologist.
