I recently switched to a lye relaxer, but I've heard lye relaxers be described as harsher on the scalp, but healthier for the hair. Has anyone here used a lye relaxer for years and if so how has your scalp reacted over the years?
I started wondering if it's possible that after a few years the lye relaxer being harsher on the scalp might damage my hair follicles more so than using a no lye even though I base my scalp carefully. If that's the case I would rather battle the effects of drier hair than possibly inhibit hair growth or damage my scalp.
This question really has me puzzled so I would love to hear any opinions on it.
Thanks!
