Benefits Of Natural Relaxers For Black Hair

By Nancy Gardner


Some women visit the salon often times but others go in scarcely. Salon services are very expensive and this is one of the reasons which make many of the potential clients shy away from these places in an attempt to cut on the budget of hair care. Those with long hair pay even up to double the normal rates. For those seeking other alternatives, natural relaxers for black hair may be the way to go.

Relaxers which are home-made are less costly than getting the job done in the salon. However, do not put your scalp and the health of your hair at risk for a few bucks. That is why before you undertake this you need to know the exact procedure and follow it to the later. Lime and coconut milk are the most popular non-chemical relaxers for black hair. The recipe of creating them is very interesting.

At some point in life, black women wish to have straight hairs. This may be just out of wanting to have the experience or a desire to eliminate the kinkiness of the hairs. It ends up being softer than it was before and forms waves. The outcome is breathtaking.

Commercially made hair relaxers are not the only option in relaxing the mane. In addition, because they are made from chemical, the possibilities of accidents while they are been applied is great. Some women have ended up bed-ridden after suffering from burns as a result of this chemical while others have been rendered bald in the process. Many things can go wrong when using the chemical relaxers and use of the natural type can save you the stress.

The natural technique of relaxing hair has been popular for many years. Its safety and efficiency have been confirmed. The mane ends up looking silky and becomes softer. The common methods used in relaxing black hair naturally are two. The first one is easy to follow but the second one gives you a better outcome and the waste produced is minimal.

The procedure starts with mixing the lime juice with half a cup coconut milk. The solution is allowed to sit for some hours until a foam layer appears on the top. The foam is scooped and applied on the hairs. It is left for a couple of hours and then the mane is washed. However, you will need a lot of lime juice and milk in order to get good results. Another drawback with this method is the possibility of the foam breaking down and becoming runny. It will not be effective this way.

The next ones require addition of cornstarch and olive milk to the mixture made in the first method. Cornstarch should be just one spoon or two. The resulting mixture is whisked under low heat until good consistency is achieved. This means it will be able to remain on the mane. The olive oil added works to hydrate the mane.

After the application, the mane has to be wrapped with a shower cap for some hours. The material of the cap should be plastic. When it is uncovered, it has to be shampooed and moisturized. The results are very good and the hairs is strengthened too.
