What Is a Relaxer for Hair?

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Liz Muller from Liz's Hair Design in Hollywood, Florida. In this clip, we're going to discuss hair relaxers. There's many types of hair relaxers. For example, we have her Affirm and Mizani and Affirm actually has many different types of hair relaxers. We have the process of, Affirm will have this tub here, and what you do hear is you mix your activator and this here together and it creates different strengths and what you could do with the hair is maybe use a medium, or a normal for just hair that's less coarse. Color treated hair, you might use a little less activator, and for hair that's, you know, just completely version, you might make it a little stronger. So it gives you options here with Affirm of how to mix your relaxer and what you would want for that client. There's also relaxer that just doesn't get mixed. It comes completely like this here. As you'll see in this tub of Mizani, it's white, it's creamy, a little more coarser for Mizani than it is for Affirm, but there's different types and it's used on hair that needs to be straightened out when it's coarse and has curl. Thank you. This has been Liz Muller."
