Ask an Expert: What Is the Safest Approach for Relaxing My Hair?

  • Avatar by Staff
  • March 7, 2018
  • Ask an Expert / Care / Straight Styles

 

Yeluchi Master Stylist, Kyia Jones addresses your hair concerns. Remember, if you have questions for our experts, you can submit them on our submissions page.

 

Question: What is the safest approach to relaxing my hair?

Answer:

  1. Consistency is key. Continual use of the same brand/strength relaxer is vital.
  2. Regular trims are an absolute must.
  3. Opt for roller sets instead of blow-drys.
  4. Always keep hair protected from UV rays, chlorine and salt water.

If traditional roller sets aren’t your speed, try out this alternate heat freestyling method with Curlformers!
