welcome to my texlax video, PLEASE BE GENTLE. Lol Two years ago this was a cutting all my hair off video 😅🤣

If you have thick 4c hair you would understand “i am tired”

The fact that a person has to do a disclaimer for whatever they chose to do to their own hair is just not it.

Girl your hair is your business. Everyone needs to do what’s best for their hair and lifestyle. Congratulations on your new journey 🤎

🤣🤣🤣 “not I stole my mama olive oil” I’m never too old for the convenience of my parents things.

TIP: Make sure your texlax recipe and processing time is the same each time you do a touch up. If not, you'll end up over time with different textures all over your head which will cause tangles later. Speaking from experience!

Currently transitioning from relaxer but i will texlax some day. The struggle of dealing with 4c requires Jesus and all His angels. Guess what exactly 9months after my big chop, i am going back! I almost threw my whole head out, I can’t 😭

I’m not a hater. I followed that girls video too. Ended up loving it. Then ended up hating the dryness. Then got locks. With some Post partum shedding months later my behind is back to a twa. Moral of the story : None just sharing my journey lol

For those complaining about dryness; When you texlax your hair treat it as relaxed hair. Use relaxed hair products and relaxed hair protocols . Using natural hair products will work against your hair. So do your research, take care of you, do what makes you happy and be-you-tiful!

Not sure why, but I randomly came across this video. You’ve got thick beautiful hair and gorgeous skin. ❤️

“And I am tired” I understand 💀💀

Don't come for me. I clap back. 😂 That whole thing!

I am loving how hair care for us black women is changing. Do whatever you want with your hair. Natural, relaxed, straightened, colored, it's all good as long as you are happy. I became natural when I was 13 and for a long time I thought that I could not have fun with my hair if I was natural and it was only during quarantine that I decided f- it and went and dyed my hair bright red and cut it really short. It was hideous and I hated it but it was fun and then I had orange hair and now I have a purple bob cut and I straighten my hair all the time and I feel great. I'm tired of people judging us for how our hair looks and I'm glad that more black women are caring less. Do what you want 😁

Reading is so fundamental because I read the title and thought you were relaxing a two years old hair 😂. My bad.

I had never heard of texlaxing till I saw this now I’m interested. Because your hair still looks very natural but it seems easier to deal with and I want that, I’m over this natural stuff because my hair stay braided because that’s easier way for me to deal with it. I’m impressed.

Girl.... you won't regret doing this. I relaxed my hair after being natural for 7 years. I have no regrets at all and I do not care for anyone's opinion. My hair still feels and looks healthy. Your hair looks gorgeous 😍 😍 😍

I had to google what texlax was. Do not take away my Black card. Have had locs for 22 years. Had no clue. I sincerely didn't know. Just another way of saying texturized. Got it! It looks nice.

The disclaimer though 😂😂😂!!! Your hair is so thick. I never really thought about texlaxing but it looks good.

I just feel like people have to do what’s best for them. When my hair was relaxed I felt like it was it’s healthiest actually. So I can never agree when people say that relaxing eventually shows damage and that it’s ongoing. I went to the same person for years and got my new growth relaxed around every eight weeks. My hair was mid back growing and thriving. I felt like I started having issues once I hopped on the natural train. I’ve been thinking about texlaxing. I was never ignorant to the differences in upkeep of natural or relaxed hair. I’m pretty serious about my hair care. But I too am tired sometimes lol. I’m not trying to look European. I would actually love if my curls would pop. But they just don’t. It’s been 5/6 years. I have 4c hair that is below bra strap when stretched but ear length with the shrinkage. It is such a struggle. Natural just not for everybody and I been questioning if it’s still for me for a while now. I workout daily sometimes 2x a day and I spend so much time trying to manage my hair that I personally don’t get to fully enjoy it. Taking care of the hair that’s coming from your head is a personal experience. I didn’t go natural to only wear braids, wigs, and “protective styles” etc. I wanted to enjoy my hair out in its natural state and I don’t. I don’t enjoy the journey lol. I don’t idc. I’m seriously thinking about doing this.

This girl really yawned in the video😩, I know sis, our hair can be tiring!

My hair must be 4Z🤣🤣, I tried texlaxing a few years ago and I kid you not my hair barely changed texture. It did thin out a bit but that was it. From that day I learned that what works for others might not work for me. My hair does whatever it wants 🤦🏾‍♀️

Don’t come for me or I’ll clap back😂😂😂that one got me.

Girl! This Ghana 4c hair is something *different*. I've been natural for 6 years now and I've scheduled a relaxer appointment for next week. I'm tired too and my arms are done fighting, lol. Your hair looks great-- thanks Ohemaa :)

I love the "and I am tired"! Your hair looks so healthy. Thanks for the tip about the protein treatment before neutralizing.

I positively love this!!! Your hair is a whole mood!!! I learned a few things!! I've never done this to my hair, but I may try it one day! Overflow of blessings upon you, your family, and your brand continually💜☦🕊🥰💖

I really don't think a lot of people who recently went natural, actually want to go natural, (as in embracing whatever naturally comes out of their scalp) but more so wanted someone else's hair. I have seen African people on this platform show surprise and disappointment at having Afro coily hair rather than curly, which is so confusing.

Relaxed/texlaxed hair can definitely be healthy, and often I have seen it in better condition that some natural heads. The only time I have had problems or seen issues is some combination of relaxing too straight, relaxing too often, using a no-lye relaxer(eventually just dries your hair out), or heat styling far too often with relaxed hair(best to keep it occasional). If you relax your hair, condition it well, and mostly leave it alone like healthy natural heads do, you will end up with healthy relaxed hair.

You were so lucky. Your hair is so resilient. Relaxing totally messed up my hair, and going natural was the only way to keep hair in my scalp.

My only advice is to measure everything you add so when you do touch ups you get the same results. Your diluting the relaxer and you want the same solution every time to make it consistent!

Ohemaa, amazing results! Love the thickness and health of your hair. Enjoy your texlaxed hair journey!! I’m relaxed💕

“...and I’m tired!” Girl, I felt that. 💜

I love this, I've texturized my hair over 3 times but seriously it still looks all natural and even thicker although it's now easier for me to manage. Your came out beautiful and looking soft

Your quick 'going to bed' braids are goals!

I had someone tell me back in high school I'm so boring with my hair because I kept it in twists all the time. Like... pleeease come do my hair for me. See what you'd do with it. Anyways, beautiful hair love 💘

Your hair came out beautiful. I'm glad you decided to do what's best for you and your lifestyle. I was natural for almost a decade (2009-2017) and could no longer deal with spending hours doing my hair so in spring of 2017 I went and got a Japanese smoothing treatment (a Japanese perm left on curly/coily hair for 15 minutes then rinsed and neutralized) and I've never looked back. I still have my curls and coils but my hair is permanently elongated and it takes me mere minutes to detangle, wash, and style my hair as opposed to hours. I regret nothing.

You look so happy and content! I love it! Do you. I’m in the “it wasn’t cool when I hacked off all of my hair for it’s natural state” sector so all of these hair videos give me life. I figured it all out because there was no KZfaq hahahah. I don’t identify by my hair state or type so I say, be happy and do you. I loved watching you get pure joy from touching your hair❤️

It came out good. Look forward to more of your Texlaxed hair videos. Welcome to Texlaxed world 💕

I was scared at first because your natural hair is so healthy and beautiful, but this is cute on you and will be more manageable and versatile. DO YOU!!!

I just love your hair! It looks so beautiful! Thick strong and full of life!

I'm so tempted! I love the use of olive oil and conditioner to "dilute" the effects of the relaxer. That's a really good shout! Hmmmm, it's great watching it on YOUR hair, but my texture is not as full so that's what's scaring me. Anyway, your results were LOVELY!

Your hair grows fast I can’t believe it’s been two years already! You have some beautiful hair! 💚💚💚

I'm not a fan of relaxers because of my own experience but 4C is challenging... I can understand why she did it, but the aftermath tho, the dryness n breakage I'm crying 😢😭already girl

WHO is still opening their mouths about what other people do with their hair?! 🤨 Do YOU! You're lovely no matter WHAT you do 😘✌🏾💖

Just did my touch up today ! 🙌🏾 I did my virgin relaxer last year before the 4th of July. I have ZERO regrets. 🤗

I love your final hair texture, it’s the ease of manageability for me afterwards which is worth it abeg.

Do you sis! Results looks good. I used to texlax my hair for years before I transitioned to natural. And my hair was healthy thick and flourishing. I grew it out to almost waist length. I transitioned to natural because the maintenance was too high. Caring for my hair in it's natural state is easier for me.

Gorgeous results! Thanks for posting 👍🏾

Your hair came out really well. Still thick with a lot of texture. Great job 👍🏾

Your hair is so healthy!! I recommend tees hair gummies if trying to grow out your hair, they are awesome and vegan. My hair has grown out immensely.

My arms are tired just from waiting this! It’s a whole arm day workout! 😩😩😩😂😂😂💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

I've had better results on my daughters hair by using an oil to protect the hair from over-processing. She has been tex-laxed before. So, to protect her curl pattern we put olive on all of her hair (root to tip). We try to ONLY put the relaxer on her unprocessed hair. We don't want the relaxer to process any part of the previously tex-laxed hair. We keep it on only about 2-5 mins after application. Usually works pretty well. She's super happy with her relaxed curl pattern.

That's why I never believed in joining the black hair community trend and jumping on every bandwagon and following every trend that comes out, because every time they had a different trend and people jumped on the bandwagons the big chop, the wash and go, the rice water, The twist outs, the box braids, the coils, the locs,

LOL the fact that you said I have been natural don't try me had me cracking me up.. Love your hair.

I couldn't deal with the inconvenience of natural hair-all the deep conditioning, limited hairstyles that were actually predictable and the expense of trying new products that come in tiny bottles. I texlax now and am very happy with that. Everyone needs to do what's best for their personal situation. Good job on your texlax!

Omg your skin is glowing girl!! So beautiful, thx for the video. I did a similar texlax years ago and I wish I knew about protein treatments then, so that tip is so helpful.

I love this! Also you’re gorgeous. Your hair turned out so pretty!

Girl i am tiredddddd I’m having a mid life crisis over my hair rn. I think it’s time to just loc up cause look. I love this choice for you , thank you for doing what works for you!

Been considering “leaving the natural community” because of the constant pressure, high standards and judgement.. I think imma do this. I’m nervous thought cause my hair is so knotted now (4Z hair), and it’s so hard to detangle and manage. I need relief or imma just be bald forever cause I get so overwhelmed doing my hair and don’t have money to go to a good salon that knows how to treat my natural hair..

Love your Personality. This video just popped up in my News feed. I Say to People That Relax They Hair: Enjoy and do what works for you! Be Blessed.

Definitely MY FAVORITE beauty channel (when I in the mood for this type on content) LOVE YOUR RESULTS...

I don't blame you one bit. I've been avoiding it for a while, but now I want to try it. I'm tired of getting silk presses and flat iron styles just for it to puff back up in the next few hours🤣🤣🤣. I'm also tired of the single stand knots and breakage, no matter how much I detangle

I have 4C Hair and I felt everything you said at the beginning of this video. I went a very different route and got microlocs. The 8 hour wash days, the detangling, the drying times all began to wear on me and my hair began to suffer 😩 I was natural since 2014 and I was OVER IT! I hope this process gives you some time back and relieves some stress for you.

I used to be relaxed and I went natural about 3 1/2 years ago. I do like my natural hair but I did it because I had ruined my hair with relaxers.. now watching you, I perhaps could have saved it, had I followed the treatment steps that you did and mixing in oils... Girl, I used to slap that stuff in my hair, straight from the box, neutralize and done.. that’s probably why my hair was damaged. I don’t have the need to texturize now, but I am saying this video just in case I do!! Great tips!

I relaxed my hair all of middle and high school. Now I went natural all through college because I left my hair dresser (mom) at home and I am TIRED of it!! Everyone is up in arms about me wanting to get the korean straightening treatment because they love my hair and I'm like...okay YOU come wash it for me every week

It is your hair and I appreciate people who do what’s BEST FOR THEM!! 👏🏾👏🏾

This was such a project! Bravo!

I love that you love it sis. Work it boo💛✊🏾

I telaxed my hair and it looked so fire and then it all broke off 😂 so I started over. I really want telaxed hair though 😭

Im 4c as well i understand the struggle. I love what you did to your hair. Im glad you know what you doing. im be too scared all my hair gon be on the floor.

Turned out so good!! Amo!! Had no idea you could add EVOO! 💖

I love your vibe! And you have gorgeous hair that you take great care of. Thanks for the video.

wow, you have quite some growth for 2 years.

Your hair was quite long for two years of growth as well as healthy looking. Had you dyed your hair? It has a beautiful rich black colour to it!

The has blessed you with beautiful hair. The before and after you Texturized your hair was really good. It was interesting how you added other products to the Relaxer. The results were lovely hair. I have natural hair for ten years now. Many years ago I used Relaxers. Your Channel is helpful.

Thank you for going into detail. I texturized my hair a couple of months ago and I completely messed up (I was tired of natural lol). Going to follow this and try it again!

I’m sooooo happy I loc’d my hair!! That fact that I don’t have to do anything to it besides keeping it clean and moisturized. I’m absolutely in love. So Ladies if you’re tired of figuring out what style to do next, should you stay natural or perm? It’s not growing, no edges. Just loc it SIS. It’ll be the best decision you’ve made 💜

Can you do an update video in 4-6 months? I see a lot of video of people texlaxing their hair and then they never do an update!!

Girl u got me considering this. Beautiful 😍 you and the results.

Hey Ohemaa! Your hair looks great! I too have grown and cut and relaxed and went back natural, and repeat for years. I recently tex-laxed my 4c hair and I love it! Although I didn't dilute the relaxer and left it on the back of my hair too long bc it has the tightest coils and got it a little too straight, but I still love it. So, it's your hair, enjoy it, I know I am! 🥰👸🏾

It came out great (IMHO), and you are so pretty!! 🥰

From a 4c natural to a 4c natural; i feel you gurl! s'bout' time, i grew a pair, and did the same. My hair's about 6 - 10 inches, but i'm unable to grab it in a bun and go. You're sooo brave!!

This looks really good! Best texlax I’ve seen

I texturized my hair and I LOVEEEE the results. I still maintained my curls. Putting almond oil in after as well as leave in conditioner and putting my hair in Bantu knots got me right! My only regret was not doing it sooner. I was making my life hard (natural) for nearly a decade 😅

I texlaxed before too but once it came to the new growth- now that’s a challenge to not over straighten at that point. Eventually the hair started breaking and I cut of all the texlaxed ends and went back to 100% natural.

I actually like the look of your texlaxed hair. It still has a natural look about it and your thickness is still there. Pretty!

Your hair is so beautiful. It looks so thick, healthy and strong. I’m trying to learn about how to manage my hair. The fact you have to explain yourself and do disclaimers and tell people to not tell you what to do with your own hair is just so not right like it’s your own hair you should be able to play about with it and do what you want and feel happy and comfortable with. The internet (especially social media) has really done something to some people like there’s rarely anything that’s just fun and left as fun and interesting... someone always has to take it personally or gets offended even if it doesn’t affect them at all. Watching you do your hair care its making me want to do just slather it in oils and masks. I wish I could figure out what to use on my hair to stop it looking so bad when I want to wear it natural without straightening etc. Your hair real does look so shiny and I really like how the 2 braids look on you I know it was just to sleep and stuff but it looks pretty and cute! 💜

It came out so nice! Congrats babe

I’ve never had a relaxer but I’m fascinated by the technique. It came out beautiful!

Your head shape isn’t weird it’s perfectly made 👌🏿

Great Video! This is what I been wanting to do. My 4c is a nightmare. Thanks for this video.👍🏾

Your hair is beautiful, you were scaring me with the relaxer all on your face.

Girl, do you want to do with your hair and don't mind the haters! When you said you had a weird head shape, I had to laugh. My husband is American and every time my head shape is showing and he says something, I say, "hey! Leave my Ghana head alone o" 😂

This natural hair journey is a beast. It’s not for everyone. You do what’s best for you.

I love this! New subbie! Your hair is amazing and cheers to your new journey

Woo! Happy texlaxed hair journey!

I totally get why you texlaxed your hair and the results look amazing ✨✨✨🥰🥰

Girl your gorgeous 😍 I’m not talking about your hair either... it’s the face feathers for me

I really like your results❤️❤️❤️. I have decided to go this route

Oh we joined in the decision making I am behind you sis nxt week will do mine I pray I get the full coverage lol 😂

"I am tired." I felt that in my soul. I'm 3c/4a and I'm over having to do my hair daily. I just want to hop up and do a bun or ponytail. Thank you for showing this alternative because I am seriously contemplating a G.I. Jane cut or relaxer. This texlax might give me something to work with.
