So How Many Jars of Relaxer Will I Need...

[Supergirl]

for say 12-13 weeks of new growth? (about 1.5 inches stretched)

Should I get 1 or 2 regular sized (16 oz.) jars of relaxer or should I go for the tub. Also if I have relaxer left over, how long does it last? Can it be used for the next relaxer?

Thanks in Advance,

I stretched for 7 months and I was able to use one relaxer.

I use ORS No Lye

I have 28 weeks of new growth and I would only use one jar

I'm going to go with Silk Elements lye relaxer.

Go ahead and get the tub. Once you see how straight and silky your hair will be you'll be glad you did!!

How long will the relaxer stay good? (is there an expiration date?)

I use affirm in the tub and I find that I use 1/3 of the tub per application (1 inch of new growth) HTH

Sorry to reply so late. I'm not really sure but I think I read somewhere that if stored properly, relaxers should last two years.

Stored in a cool dry place.
