Kimage got a pretty decent faq for those intending to play around a lil with their hair, as well as some general tips.
http://www.kimage.com.sg/faqs.htmI just realised why a 'hair relaxer' is not called a 'hair straightener'

... it never did claim to be able to straighten your hair, only decreases its natural curl ["permanently break internal bonds in the hair the hair needs to maintain its structural integrity"].
Better make sure your hair-stylist washes off the chemicals in time i.e. when the alarm rings. Guess wat happens to over-relaxed hair ... it simply breaks and drops off

I tested POSITIVE ... for ATTITUDE !~!
