Hair Relaxer for Sensitive Scalp

[olduser]

I've tried using different kinds of relaxers for sensitive scalp, however they do not work. The only thing that works for me is the AFFIRM relaxer for sensitive scalp however, they don't sell that here in Nigeria.

I also make sure that i base my scalp with vaseline and i don't scratch it before getting a perm.

I need help with finding a relaxer for sensitive scalp. If you can recommend some, that would be great.

And also if there are any other tricks that i can use to prevent my hair from burning, i'll appreciate it...................

NO SUCH THING EXISTS....(chuckles)
They DO NOT WORK because they all use the same chemicals. More fat or wax is used to buffer the effects of the relaxer, I guess to lessen the frying.

and why the hell would you scratch your scalp then perm??? That's like cutting yourself and pouring acid into the wound.
oops i mean that IS cutting yourself and pouring acid into the wound!!!

U want a trick that prevents burning....try not perming
