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.

Making your own hair relaxer at home will save you a considerable amount which could have been spent in the salon. Nevertheless, you should make sure you adopt a safe technique in doing this to avoid injury to your scalp and damage to your mane. The most common natural kind of relaxers is the coconut milk and also lime. Creating the recipe of these products is quite exciting.

Every black woman has desired a straight hair at some point. Sometimes it is just because they want to experience how it feels to have a straight mane or it could be an attempt to do away with the kinks which are notorious in black mane. It becomes softer and a little wavy.

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 process is complete, the hairs should be wrapped using a plastic mane cap for some hours. On removal, it has to be washed with a mane shampoo and moisturizing follows. The results are amazing and you can then style the hairs as you wish.
