are there hair perms that donot contain proplylene glyco?

Question

I'm allergic to the chemical called proplyene glyco. what must I stay away from?

Answer 1

Proplyene glycol is one of the chemicals that make a perm reactive so it is rare to find a perm without this chemical. There is one perm I've found but it's marketed primarily for African-American hair textures.

It's described as a natural relaxer, it does not straighten hair like a chemical perm. If you have kinky, "typical" African hair, no product short of a perm will make your hair straight. Many of our clients use the Natural-Laxer products in conjunction with pressing on those occasions when they do want straight hair. Natural-Laxer Plus will make your hair much more manageable, loosen the curl pattern and reduce tangles. But, it will not make your hair straight.
