TCB Hair Relaxer (Regular strength, 7.5 oz) is a no-base / no-mix crème formula designed to straighten textured hair by loosening its natural curl pattern. It comes as a standalone relaxer creme (i.e. not a kit), so additional items like neutralizing shampoo, gloves, conditioners, and protective agents may need to be purchased separately.
Features & Benefits
-
Regular Strength: Suited for fine to medium textured hair. Using a stronger relaxer on hair that can’t tolerate it may cause damage.
-
No-Base / No-Mix Formula: Doesn’t require mixing with activators. This simplifies the process and reduces chances of incorrect proportions.
-
Conditioning & Protecting Ingredients: The formula incorporates proteins, natural oils, and other agents to help protect and strengthen hair during the relaxing process.
-
Versatile Use: Can be used on relaxed, texturized, colored, or permed hair (within limitations) to help maintain straight styles.
-
Controlled Application: Because it’s a crème, it allows more control in applying only where needed (e.g. new growth / touch-ups) to minimize overprocessing.
Use Instructions (Summary)
-
Strand Test: Try on a small section of hair first to check tolerance and possible damage.
-
Prepare & Protect: Apply a protective base (e.g. petroleum jelly) along hairline, nape, and on scalp edges. Wear gloves.
-
Application: Divide hair into sections and apply the relaxer crème starting from the nape area, moving towards the forehead. Apply to new growth only for touch-ups.
-
Smoothing: After applying, smooth hair in the direction of growth to ensure even application and desired straightening.
-
Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with warm water until all traces of the relaxer are removed.
-
Neutralize: Use a neutralizing (acidic) shampoo (ideally provided or purchased separately) and shampoo until pH balance is restored.
-
Condition & Style: Follow up with conditioning treatments and style hair as desired.
