When Do You Switch Relaxers?

By

 Using a particular brand of relaxer doesn't really matter until you probably notice changes in their ingredients or how your hair feels after use.

You may also switch if you've noticed a certain problem with each use. For example, dry and itchy scalp. You may also be using a high strength relaxer which leaves your hair thin. Consider using 'fine to medium' instead of coarse. 



Another factor to consider is the texture of your hair. Do you get the texture you want? If no, then it's time to switch.

If your relaxer leaves you with burns despite all the healthy hair practices or measures you put in place prior to touch up, then you should consider switching.

Lastly, if you are just curious to try other relaxers, be sure to read reviews first.
