I just purchased this at Marshalls. Just wondering too if anyone tried it? Any reviews to share?

Sounds scary... Provides permanent wave, haircolor and hair lightener insurance. Isnt your chemical supposed to do this on its own?

I don't think you will have any problems adding it to your relaxer...

Joico K-Pak Professional Formula E-L/80 Chemical Activator provides permanent wave, haircolor, and hair lightener insurance. Enriched with essential fatty acids, vitamin E and lecithin, this chemical service additive is used with color, perms, lighteners and relaxers to improve desired end results and overall health of hair. For all chemical services, hair is left with improved condition, shine and health.

You suppose this would this be the same as for those who add additional oils to their relaxer before applying?

This does sound a little scary.... chemical activator provides permanent wave????, hair lightener???

I guess if you have virgin hair and want waves and your hair lightened it might be something to consider, but if you're already relaxed or colored treated, I wouldn't try it.

That's a relaxer. Watch out. Idk what strength it is,but if it touches the rest of your already relaxed hair it's gonna be double processing and spell trouble. On your roots, it may not damage it (depending on the strength). Idk the product but be careful, is what I'm saying.
