What will relaxer do to my hair?

Hey. My hair has big curls, if I grow it out long enough it looks like a jewfro / afro. I'm not black, so I don't have that really tight wound curly hair. If I put relaxer in my hair, what exactly will happen? I'm paranoid because this girl in my school relaxes her hair, and it's paper thing, and it doesn't move at all. I'm just wondering what it will do to my hair. Make it straighter or less frizzier or what? :D thanks.What will relaxer do to my hair?
Relaxer make your hair straight and less frizzy. It can also make your hair thinner, break off, or fall out - you have to know how to take care of it and apply it correctly, else some very bad things can happen. It's a permanent chemical hair straightener, which means if you want to keep it up then you'll have to retouch your roots every few months, and if you don't want it anymore then you'll have to cut it out.





Some whites on Answers say they put it in their hair with no problems. THere's also other types of permanent straightening, which are much more expensive, like Japanese and Brazilian straightening.
