Natural Black Hair Styles

There are products on the market that call themselves “natural relaxers”. We have gotten many questions about them. After years of research, we finally found a natural hair manageability product we can sell with confidence. But, it is not a traditional relaxer. Read on for more information.The majority of product that pass themselves off as “natural relaxers” are just as potent and potentiall harmful as any “chemical” relaxer. After all, lye is, in a sense, natural. Lye was first produced by running water across ashes. So, don’t let the term natural make you think a relaxer is mild. If its effect on the hair is permanent, if it actually straightens kinky hair and if it instructs you do to things like wear gloves when applying, apply a neutralizer, not apply on chemically treated hair and/or isn’t clear about what its ingredients are, those are red flags that it is harsh, even though it might be “natural”.That relaxer is the Natural-Laxer MIX^TM from Baka Beauty Products. However, the term “relaxer”, in this case, may be misleading. We think that may be why the natural relaxers have gotten a bad rap. The natural relaxer we sell is an all herbal hair treatment. It is kind of an herbal texturizer. It is not a straightener. You simply are not going to get kinky black hair to become bone straight in an “all natural” (as in mild and not potentially harmful) way. What our relaxer does is gradually allow the natural curl pattern to loosen. This causes the hair to be less kinky and somewhat straighter. It also makes the hair softer. Some interesting side effects of this relaxer is that you end up with less tangles, less breakage and the hair is actually strengthened and encouraged to grow by the relaxer. The relaxer also helps prevent reversion of pressed hair. The relaxer works with a cumulative effect. After the first application or two, the differences will be subtle, but noticeable. Over time, the relaxer makes the hair softer and softer. This is an excellent treatment for damaged permed hair, an aid in transition from perms to natural hair or a conditioner/detangler for natural hair.
