05 Feb 2012 Self Relaxer Results Using ORS

I like it and my hair is straighter than when the stylist relaxed it. I can now comb through it easily. I also clipped my ends and blow dried it. I didnt apply a liquid moisturizer but instead applied my mustard oil, almond and the mahabhringaraj indian oil. That mahabhringaraj oil is the business!! I was worried about a thinning area and the area looks healthy now. I am going to see if I can find a comparison picture. The oil is supposed to wake up dead follicles... One thing I like is that It makes my hair feel so soft. I want to try mixing it with my coconut oil. Anyway I can now hold the tip of my hair past the bra-strap even after dusting my ends so I'm happy bout that. I can see that I have hair growth and my hair is getting alot thicker. Those dead follicles have came ALIVVVVE, lol. Here are some pictures... More to follow.

Self Relaxing my Own Hair!

I know I got a relaxer on 30 Nov 2011, but you all know it didnt take and I refuse to use a super relaxer. I'm headed to Afghanistan so I need to make my hair manageable because I'm going to be living in a tent and I am not going to be struggling to detangle my hair... So I decided to self relax using the ORS relaxer. I havent self relaxed in about 12 years so I was scared. I followed the instructions to the "t" Total relaxing time was 18 mins. Now I'm sitting under the steamer. Here is a snapshot I took 4 instagram...
