Took myself out for some self-care today at the salon.
But plot twist: I came with my own products 😂
I bought the "Motions No-Lye Relaxer Creme" kit to use at home later, but decided to test it at the salon first. The kit has everything: relaxer creme, neutralizing shampoo, silkening masque, pre-treatment conditioner, gloves, spatula, and cape. I even brought my wide-tooth comb + tail comb.
The stylist washed my hair, applied the pre-treatment, then the relaxer. Rinse, neutralize, masque... and that warm water scalp massage at the basin? Pure therapy.
Why I did this:I wanted to see how my scalp reacts before trying it solo at home. Good news - no burning, hair feels soft and straight. Now I’m more confident to DIY next time.
Do you bring your own products to the salon or trust them to use theirs? What’s your relaxer routine like?
