I was just wondering what would happen if you used a hair relaxer but didn't actually straighten your hair with a straightener afterwards. What would it look like? Thanks!

You're better off using a texturizer

Not trying to be rude or anything but that's not the question I asked and I was just wondering..

I'm going to straighten it in a few days but I just don't have the time right now.

Alexis: ok. well you asked for advice and I was trying to tell you what was a smarter idea but ok. probably almost every other African American on this site will tell you the same thing

When you say don't straighten it...do you mean like right after the relaxer or don't straighten it ever?

You don't have to straighten your hair after using a relaxer. a relaxer is used for straightening.

relax... then blow dry.. that's it. style it as you wish

It's going to look like whatever you hair looks like after you blow dry it? I mean, that's going to depend a lot in your hair type how it falls and how it looks. If you're not going to use a flat iron afterwards then your hair isn't exactly going to be walk out the door ready (but again, that depends on your hair type and personal preference)
