Questions about hair relaxer?

Ok first of all what is it, i have an idea but not completly sure.


How long does it keep your hair straight for?


Do you have to get it 'redone'?


Are there any 'side affects'?


Is it better to do this (hair relaxer) or strighten your hair everyday?


I know its diffrent in diffrent salons and stuff but about how much does it cost to get it done in a hair salon? (in AU dollers)


THANKS!!!Questions about hair relaxer?
ok a relaxer is like a perm, uses same chemicals, but instead of curly, its str8.





again like a perm - its permanent, just like a colour. and just like a colour u'll need ur roots done every 2 months.





'side effects' - as with any chemical treatment (colour, bleach etc) u will damage the hair to an extent, however if the proper aftercare, the damage will b kept to a minimum.





one ur hair has been relaxed, it cant b reversed, so if u like ur hair straight and ur hair is thick/unruly/frizz than relaxing mayb for you.





as for the price am not too sure as it varies from salon to salon here in the UK.





to keep hair in good conditioner after having it done..


- do deep conditioning treatments


- use leave in conditioner


- avoid using heat on ur hair and if u do, use a defrizz cream/serum





products:


shampoo - TIGI dumb blonde shampoo, matrix biolage ultra hydrating shampoo and TIGI oatmeal and honey shampoo

** the TIGI dumb blonde range isn't just for 'blonde hair' - its for chemically treated/damaged hair in general.Questions about hair relaxer?
if u relax your hair usually it will last for 6 to 8 months, and retouch will be 1 year after the last relax. you should treat your hair with hot oil /hair spa twice a month for maintenance. if you iron your hair everyday it will get too dry,not safe. it depends on the length and thickness too. ;)
