@Zay-neey to answer you....
How Long do You keep the relaxer in for? My relaxers are done professionally. The stylist goes by the recommended time.

Whats your Natural Hair texture? I don't recall my 100% natural days as a kid. I assume my hair is in the 4 range based on what my ng looks like.

What are your results after Relaxing, texture wise ? Straight hair

Any Tips for Relaxing Low Porosity hair? I'm not a self-relaxer. I flat iron my ng prior to my TU to loosen the shed hairs to make the ng easier to navigate.

There are a few porosity threads going and you might find some good help there. Low Porosity Support Group / Low Porosity Spinoff. I tagged you in both of those.

I used to use Creme of nature Lye Super,(and others) that was the only one that kind of straightened my hair .I never ever got straight hair from a relaxer . My texture is 3a lose curls.
