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.

It is the wish of every black woman to have straight hairs at some point in life. Some may be just curious to have the experience while for some it may be the desire to take the kinks off the hairs leaving it with beautiful waves and a soft texture.

Chemical relaxers have been associated with many demerits and sometimes can even leave you bald. Instead of having to worry about the possible things which can go wrong if you were to use chemicals to relax you hairs you can just go natural and still achieve the same results peacefully.

The natural relaxers have been used over the centuries. This is a guarantee that they do work and are safe to use. They give the mane a silky texture and leave it softer than it was before. The first method is much easier to carry out but the next one produces better result and the waste produced in the process is not that much.

The first technique requires mixing of half a cup of milk from coconut with lime. The solution is given some time to foam. It is the foam which is applied on the mane. One of the challenges faced when this method is used is the possibility of certain foam consistency getting compromised. This makes it runny and it will not give good results.

The other method is adding olive oil to the coconut milk and lime mixture. One or two spoonfuls of cornstarch are needed too. The ingredients are whisked together over low heat until consistency like that of store-bought conditioners is achieved. This is to make sure it does not run off when it is applied on the hairs. The olive oil is added to maintain hydration of 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.
