Hey every one! My boss told me the other day he wants me to straighten his hair for him using a relaxer or chemical straightener. I took 2 years of cosmetology and got my license but never went into the industry, so I am qualified to do this procedure. I was wondering what a good product was that would straighten his hair for him without harming the hair.
His hair is more wirey than curly or anything like that. The first thing I said to him was "you shoułd get a keratin treatment done, that should make your hair super soft and more smooth." Instantly he said he's already tried that and it worked for 5 days then his hair went right back to how it was before.
I want to know what products you ladies use either in your salon or if you do your friends hair at home then at your house. This is a question for professional hair stylists ONLY PLEASE!! I don't want any product sold at Sally's or anything with a lot of ammonia in it either. If there is anything else you want to ask in order to suggest a decent product please don't hesitate, ask away!! I appreciate everything.

Hair relaxers are meant for African American hair only. I know you didn't state that, but just in case lol.

Hmmmm...Kaitlin...relaxers aren't exclusively for African American's. I have a few friends who are white that use relaxers. Hair products are universal to ALL people. Sorry Andrea but I needed to correct her on that misconception.
