I’m four months post relaxer and I’m trying to be patient as my hair transitions without cutting it off or going back to the creamy crack. I took the advice of Celebrity Stylist, Nadia Vassell (Interview with Celebrity Hairstylist Nadia Vassell) and tried out Mizani’s Thermasmooth Shampoo, Conditioner, Thermasmooth system, the SmoothGuard and the ShineExtend. My hair didn’t feel as hydrated as I had expected, but it felt extremely soft. Pair those products up with oil (coconut, argan, Moroccan, etc.), a good flat iron and Design Essential’s Sleek Edge Control and you’ll be straight!

I just want to say I LOVE your blog! I wish I would’ve came across this a long time ago. Keep up the good work!
I’m with you Ms. Rich. I’ve been trying to do this natural thing for 8 months now and it has not been easy at all, but I’m going to give Thermasmooth System a try. Thanks
You look fabulous! Will have to try thermasmooth.
Thank you ladies! Try it and let me know what you think.
