Re: 4\'s & Affirm no lye
4b here and using Affirm Lye Mild with fantastic results -- the best in all the 20 years I've been relaxing my hair. I have NEVER received better results! Go for it. I switched from Design Essentials to Affirm on the recommendation of my cousin who also has 4b hair -- her hair has been looking so consistently nice that I asked what she was doing and she said Affirm girl. . . and I did!

Re: 4\'s & Affirm no lye
I've been using No-Lye relaxers forever. I hear so many people rave about the Lye relaxer. Should I wait until my hair is a little stronger before trying a Lye relaxer? Is the Lye relaxer stronger than the No-Lye relaxer?

Supposedly, from what I understand:
Lye: can be harsh for the scalp, but better for the hair
No-Lye: better for the scalp, but can be harsh for the hair
I think it depends what your hair and scalp prefer. I've used Affirm Fiberguard NO-LYE before and I had scalp irritation along with shedding. I currently use Affirm Lye Mild, with no problems. It depends on what works best for you and your hair.
