Finally Relaxing My Hair After 6 Months Stretch | My Relaxed Hair Journey

Foreign welcome back to my channel. If you can't hear me, I'm sorry, my voice has sort of disappeared, so I'm in a rush it's Sunday and the girl is headed to the salon. As you can see, I have my hair in these little ponytails um. I'M going to get my relaxer after six months and I am 10 minutes late. Luckily, the salon is right around the corner, so let me get going. I will see you guys when I get to tattoos. If you're new to the Channel, please don't forget to subscribe. Don'T forget to click the notification Bell, so you know when I upload new videos and yeah happy Sunday. I hope you enjoy the video apply a protective base onto your scalp, also in front of your edges and your ears. We all know this if you've been doing relaxes. You have to do that, so you can protect your scalp from relaxer Burns, but also protect from scalp irritations, just ensuring that your scalp is protected, and that is what tattoo is doing. She is opening lines going in section by section and applying that base to my scalp foreign with the relaxer she likes to start in the back of my head, because that is where my coils are the tightest and where it is most difficult to apply. She has potted my hair in four sections clipped it away, so she can work nicely at the back without the risk of putting relaxer on my already relaxed hair. What you can see her doing is she's using the petal applying the relaxer. Only to my new growth and she's, just looking it down with that green petal, applying it to the front and the back of the hair to make sure all my growth has relaxer on it foreign to the front of my head. She is still using the green petal to apply. I forgot to mention. I used the Mizani butter Blends relaxer and I've been using this for quite a while. Now I love how it treats my hair. The thing about this relaxer is, it doesn't make my hair, like all the way super straight and thin. It does leave like a bit of texture and I think that's okay for me for now, and I just love the way it treats my hair foreign. I am going through a relaxed hair setback, which is not a very nice thing. Um I neglected my hair while it was in my cornrows and as a result, my ends of drying out and my hair is breaking, but it is hair. It can grow back and I'm looking forward to going on to the journey of discovering what my hair now prefers, because clearly the cornrows are no longer doing it for me, but yeah. I just thought I should mention that foreign throughout my whole head she's, going back with that petal and you can see she's slicking it down so she's like slicking, the relaxer down to smoothen like the coils of the new growth, and that is basically what you do. This video is spit up for the reasons that I didn't want to make a vlog out of a relaxed day but yeah. That is basically what she is doing. Smoothing down my new growth um very important. Your stylus shouldn't keep the relaxer on for too long, like I know with tattoo even before it starts tingling like on my scalp. She will leave the relaxer on for between about 20 to 25 minutes, and my new growth will be stretched. Then we head to the Basin and she's going to rinse out the relaxer printing, the relaxer out, not with too hot water, because yeah chances are that it's going to Scorch your scalp you've just put chemicals on your hair, and now you want to Scorch it with Hot water so use warm water, not too hot and also not too cold, because remember they are fats and things and relaxed, and you don't want those things staying behind and continuing to work in your hair after you rinse it out. Foreign start we're going to lather with some neutralizing shampoo and we use a neutralizing shampoo after um relaxing our hair, because you want to balance out the pH in your hair, but also because you want to neutralize and remove any relaxer that is left over. So it doesn't continue to work, because if there is relaxed the left on your scalp, then it's going to continue to work processing your hair, but also possibly causing some damage and irritation to your scalp. That is why we use a neutralizing shampoo. You can repeat the shampoo process. Your hair status will repeat the the shampoo process until she sees that all the relaxer is moved out of your scalp, then she's going to apply conditioner and give me that Heavenly Massage we're going to leave that on. For about 10. To 15 minutes and we're going to detangle with a comb just to detangle the knot or whatever conditioner gives it a nice slip. So it's easier to detangle when there's conditioner applied to the hair, but oh my gosh, I'm living for this massage, like oh, my goodness. It feels so good foreign use a wide tooth comb to detangle your hair white tooth comb is the best. I love love. I'Ve stopped using brushes on my hair, only a wide tooth comb and sometimes finger detangling, but yeah rinsing out the conditioner and then we're going to head to the chair. I am going to be doing a very big trim today because I want to get my hair back to being healthy and it requires a trim. Foreign she's applied. Some of the Mizani Miracle mist spray into my hair, and that is what we normally use when we are going to use heat in my hair and what she's doing is. She is detangling, but also sectioning the hair so that she can blow dry it foreign there again, she's using like the blow dryer on the medium setting and then she's going in with her fingers detangling that hair before she goes in with a comb. This has helped my hair because, like she sort of removes some of the tangles with her fingers and when it comes to the combing, then there's no pulling or you know breaking of my hip with the comb or the brush that she uses. I will say: I've realized my hair is a lot darker than it was before. I don't know if it's because I use that as I am hydration Elation conditioner or I don't know if it's been the there's, a herbal spray that I've been using in my in my hair that I made in my kitchen, I'm not sure what it is, but Even tattoo said, my hair is a lot not darker. My hair was growing like a brownish color and now it's going back to being black and I haven't used a dye. So I'm really happy about that. So I'm going to stick to my current routine, because I like how my hair feels and we're going to use these are shearers. I think they call them she's showing you because she said not to use just any scissors on your hair. You need a hair, scissor or shears to be specific and yeah she's going in and giving me a trim again. Tattoo says she's not going to cut my hair too much. So I think this is like a primary trim. If I need to when I go in for my treatment, I am going to get the ends, trimmed some more because yeah. I think I've got some very dry ends and I just like to get rid of all the unhealthy hair. So I can sort of have like a fresh start but yeah. That is all she does going around my head and taking off um the unhealthy ends. The split ends. If I have any, I'm not sure if I want to get a blunt cut, but I am starting to consider blunt cutting my hair. We did go a lot shorter. You will see when she's done. My hair is a lot shorter than in the previous videos, and that is because of um the setback that I'm having, but we are going to get out of it. I mean this is me, we're talking about you, guys we're going to get back into this thing and I'm going to stop the corner is completely for now. Just so I can restore the health of my hair. Thank you, and once that is done, we're going to apply a treatment to the scalp and she's going to massage it in just so. My scalp is moisturized because I have been experiencing some flaking lately and that is it for today's relaxed hair video. What I am going to do is I'm going to draw up a plan of action how to restore my health, my healthy hair, you know with story to its formal Glory, how to grow it back and retain more length again, but yeah, no more cornrows, and I'm Going to try for deeply washing and deep conditioning - and that is my her - I'm very happy about it - um she combed the curls out - it's very hot and humid so yeah, but you can see my ends, look very nice and full and I'm very happy. Thank you. So much for watching, I will see you in my next video
