Hello beautiful people!
It has been a while and I am back with a bang! After 8.5 years being natural, I decided to relax my hair. It was not a spur of the moment decision. If you follow me on Instagram (@ brendamang) then you probably saw how long I contemplated doing this over the past 2 years.
If you want a more in depth video about my decision to go back to relaxer, leave your question down in the comments below and I will cover it in a Q&A video!

Been binge watching all these relaxed videos 😂 I’m never relaxing my hair but it’s still really satisfying to watch.

lol this is literally me...I'm never relaxing my hair (I recently cut my natural hair after 8 years,), but I love seeing relaxed hair transitions :)

@sorasgirl0 Год назад

SAAAAME. I love my natural hair and will never EVER go back to a relaxer…but…these are wonderful to watch. I love relaxed hair videos! (I don’t even watch natural hair videos haha, I find a lot of natural videos to be toxic).

Yes...I've been natural for 12 yrs and I'm thinking about going back to relaxer. My hair has been damaged like it's never been and is now very thin.

@sheliamurdaugh4259 Год назад

I think all women should do what works best for them. It's your hair, and you do what works best for you. I noticed that when I was natural, I spent way too much money and time on my hair to not be satisfied with the results. Yes, I love myself, and my hair was not in a healthy condition it was dry and breaking. The protective styles was damaging my hair and edges even more. Back to what worked best for me. Now my hair isn't breaking or dry and the cost of being relaxed is not leaving me broke.

I'm pretty sure this thought has cross so many women's mind. I do not judge, whichever makes your life easier. There are so many who went back relaxed and their hair is longer and stronger than ever before. Either way, natural or relaxed hair have to be moisturized and taken care of. You got this.

@cassiedion4144 Год назад

@emmyl487 Год назад

I went natural in 2010. On my birthday this year (4/20) I texturized my hair. No regrets! I didn't hate my natural hair, but I just felt like doing something different. I have big chopped 3 times before. I'm not super attached to my hair. 🤷🏿‍♀️

@hillaryyfk1373 Год назад

What do you mean by you texturised your hair?

@marlbulshiter Год назад

Avlon’s Texture Release loosens natural curl patterns without permanently straightening it. Heat activates the proteins so if you wash and don’t blow dry you can still have your curls back but they’ll be softer.

@Fourwindsofsuccess Год назад

Gorgeous. Keep on shining lady. I love it. I was a natural for 5 years and my hair never 👎🏾 grew. Idc. I braid my hair under my wigs now and oil it 4x a week with moisture leave in spray. Yes I do wash my hair with the braids in as well during the months of my growth routine then I take it out and do a full wash but braid it back down to grow more until it’s time to relax, it I relax it like once a year. My mermaid tresses are long as heck to. Wear your hair however you want. Blessings. Embrace your long managed hair women of color , a woman’s hair is her glory. Forget the misogynistic and racist haters who want to police your hair.

@Beaneabean 7 месяцев назад

The “ive been natural for __ years” statement always boggles my mind. Is it standard that every black woman has had their hair relaxed since a young age? My hair has always been natural and a relaxer was never in the equation even though my mom has been relaxing her own hair since before i was born. But in hindsight, this also explains why I was bullied by other black kids growing up for my hair. Was never relaxed and I never wore braids/weaves. I just didnt understand what was wrong with my hair to them.

I cut all my hair in 2017, because I had cancer in 2011… After the procedure it left my hair not as full but the texture of my hair changed. I've been natural for 6.5 years and have no plans as of yet, to go back to relaxers. However, your hair is lovely and God bless you and hair jouney

I have only permed my hair one time when I was 12 so I always been “natural” let me just say I’m getting a perm box today lmfaoooooo I cannot with the 3-day wash days anymore. Not to mention I can’t do any cute styles with this shrinkage and puffiness. I barely wash my hair anymore because it’s just too much.

@satyrataylor8225 Год назад

Exactly how I feel

@chevonnedixon1708 Год назад

Facts!!! It takes 3-4 hours to wash and detangle. If I have time to blow dry it, that's another hour plus, not to mention styling. If it air dries, it takes days to dry. I have 5 sons and I work. Ain't nobody got time for that!! Relaxing mine next week for sure!

Congratulations for having the guts to join the relaxed club!🎉😊 There's no shame in it, girl, lol! It's so much easier having straight hair. It just is. I've been relaxing my hair for 40 years. It's past mid-back and healthy. And you'll discover if you let it dry naturally, it still curls. I'll wear mine curly in the summer occasionally if it's too hot to blow dry it straight. I'll never have my hair natural. NEVER. Just why?? Relaxer all the way. And yes, it's great to run your fingers through it, right??😂 Congrats! Your hair looks terrific!🎉❤

well relaxers increase your cancer risk marginally and only if you use them super often. smoking, drinking, lack of exercise, and unhealthy diets are much more of a concern and people still do that because they want to.

@comelitekang8873 Год назад

I’ve been natural 7 years now with kinky 4C hair. It’s satisfying watching ppl going back to relaxer but relaxer is not for me. I hated my relaxed hair especially the new growth stages. I really did not enjoy it and how limp your hair become over the years of relaxing. I also hated the 3 month commitment. I prefer my natural curls. Olaplex line works best for it. I think if I did not find Olaplex I would’ve considered going back to relaxer. But thank Goc for Olaplex it makes wash day and swim days a breeze. I stand by Olaplex, I’ve been using it for just over 1 year and has seen so much improvement in my hair.

@honeybdream Год назад

What does Olaplex do? I may go back to relaxed :(

@comelitekang8873 Год назад

Olaplex treatment is primarily used to strengthen hair bonds. So, if you have damaged or weakened hair strands, Olaplex will rebuild those bonds over time. It doesn't happen over night. My hair was so damaged from blowdrying it had these visible breaking points. I've used Olaplex for over 1 year and most of my strands had been repaired. I could literally see how my damaged hair is getting healthier and more alive. Some strands were just too damaged that it just eventually broke off. I understand if you'd want to go back to relaxer, I would probably too if I had to live in wet, moist environments cos in the end you want to enjoy your hair. I don't wear wigs or protective styles, I just wear my hair but I'm also not a wash and go natural. I went from relaxed to blowdrying my natural hair after each wash@@honeybdream

I’m concerned about trying to use a relaxer again as I am now 54 it’s like my hair had stopped tolerating chemicals and I found I didn’t have the selection of relaxers. The best relaxer I’ve ever had was called Sensitive by Nature and when they discontinued this I was so hurt. I reached out to the company and they appreciated my compliments of the product but they said they weren’t going to make it anymore 😭I’ve always had long hair thank God but this silk press business is definitely challe
