Neither is healthy. Relaxing the hair breaks down the protein bonds and if you continue to get them, it leads to very porous hair, alopecia and breakage, not to mention chemical burns. Continuously pressing the hair or pressing the hair with too much heat can actually permanently relax the hair, causing damage to hair the same way chemical relaxers do. If you have natural hair, wear styles that compliment your natural texture. Having natural hair is NOT a bad thing. Its beautiful! I know I love mine!

well i don't think either one is very good for your hair---but i would definitely reccomment pressing, because perms have many chemicals that can break and damage your hair, and once you get a perm, you have to keep getting them and getting them, and pretty soon your hair will start to feel like horse hair or something! Stick to pressing!

I think that getting a relaxer (perm) constantly is never healthy to you hair. Although having your hair pressed is an alternative you still have to watch how much heat you apply to you hair.

pressing since once you get a perm you gotta stick to it and it takes awhile to get back to natural hair

I would think pressed would be healthier.
