4a/b Ladies Only - Relaxers

[MzThang]

What relaxers do you use. I am currently seeking another relaxer. I want to try Affirm or Elasta QP. I would really like to hear your input.

 

[jainygirl]

Revlon Realistic Mild (Lye). works great and doesnt make my hair that funky brown color like no-lye relaxers did when i used to use them years ago.

 

[Taliah]

motions, if you like your hair straight!

 

[iwantlongerhair]

Affirm and I love it

 

[nicki6]

Avoid Elasta QP(reg) if you want bone straight hair. I relaxed with it last Saturday and its only 70-80% straight. All this after my stylist said that it didn't seem to be breaking down so she put a plastic cap on me for about 10 minutes.

Off topic, but Jainygirl, it's funny that you got the funky brown from no-lye. I get it from lye and it is more like a reddish brown...Anyway...

BTW, I've used Mizani for YEARS.

My hairdresser uses vitale on me, but I want to try affirm.

*****= great
****= very good
***= good
**= OK/ passable
*= BAD

*****Affirm-Lye-->got my hair silky and straight.
****Design Lye--> was very good
**Motions Lye--> Was OK. It was passable
***Vital--> was good mainly after taking out braids considering had so much new growth.

 

[MizAvalon]

My stylist uses Motions and I like it. A lot of people seem not to, but I haven't had any problems with it.

 

[Redpoetess1]

I'm sorry the one that I use varies, but mostly it is Affirm.

 

[candibaby]

I love Design Essentials, it is the best.

 

[foxybronx]

Affirm lye regular

 

[Wildflower]

Affirm and not going back!!!

 

[greAtness333]

I used Mizani no-lye for years but my new stylist used Elucence lye, they both worked great.

 

[chellee]

The salon I go to uses Affirm. I love it!

 

[AJamericanDiva]

Affirm lye, regular strength...

I think the reddish brown color is kinda cool!

 

[lonei]

ORS Olive Oil Relaxer (no-lye), I never get burnt, its the best ever

 

[Neroli]

Affirm lye mild - EXCELLENT!!!
Design Essential lye - VERY GOOD

 

[Patrice]

Optimum care no lye relaxer, I LOVE it !!!!

 

[LEOLADYSW]

Mizani Medium

 

[sweetpineapple]

my stylist uses Designer's Touch

 

[GinnyP]

I love Motions I don't care for affirm or Mizani too strong for my hair..

 

[beana3]

i like the elasta relaxer. I guess i'm one of thpse rare heads who dont care for affirm.

Elasta straightens my hair rally well and i've had minimal problems since iusing it.

 

[dreemssold]

Motions...and Elasta QP is a close second

.

 

[UmSumayyah]

Mizani Sensitive Scalp. It is no-lye.
