Hair Loss Cure

A hair relaxer is a chemical that is in lotion or cream form that helps to alter the structure of hair, making it less curly; or “relaxing” it. These products are formulated using strong alkali or ammonium thioglycolate. Since this product chemically alters hair structure it can have far reaching consequences for the hair. And since many of these products are available easily off the counter, there is much misuse that results in hair damage.

Hair relaxant have been blamed for a number of different problems such as breakage of hair, thinning, irritation of the scalp, hair loss and hair damage.  Hair relaxers may be even more problematic when used in conjunction with other hair treatments such as extensions, braids or weaves, which are typically preferred by those of African descent or those with very curly hair.

So when using hair relaxers, use good quality hair relaxers and make sure you follow instructions of use properly. After treatment care is also important; even if you have the procedure performed professionally.
