Can you texlax a relaxed head during touch up time? Please school me

[Bmack]

I am so darn tired of perms and I am not sure I want to go natural again. Can I just texlax from now on? If so are there any good brands to look for. In addition, how do you do it I need tips. Please advise.

Hey Friend - yes you can do this ...I recommend putting texlax or texlaxers in the search engine as there are many ways to do this...

Thanks I am going to do a search.

yes...texlaxing is just intentionally underprocessing a relaxer. There will be a difference between the texlaxed and relaxed (bone straight) hair though...maybe even a line of demarcation.

Yes, I just started texlaxing last year and there is a noticeable difference in the thickness of the texlaxed hair versus the relaxed.

I'm soooo tempted to go natural it's not even funny

I use ORS no-lye normal and I don't leave it on as long, giving me the results I want.

I like it so much that I will probably eventually go natural in about 5-10 years.

As another poster said, be careful with the two textures.

do you mean it will be more fragile?

do you mean it will be more fragile?

Not more fragile but easier to break, if you don't handle it properly, because you have thicker hair and thinner hair together (demarcation line).

I was relaxed just about all my life and finally made a decision to texlax my hair this month which was last week Thursday incidently. I had my stylist trim off 3 inches already and will be trimming with every texlaxer until all the bone-straight hair is off altogether. i can't wait to have 100% texlaxed hair on my head and I am able to do my wash and goes without looking like a deseased wet rat.

If you don't mind 2 textures, then by all means, texlax. If you want a whole head of texlax, you can slowly transition and chop your relaxed hair off bit by bit.

You sure can, just be careful about that darned line of demarcation!
