What is better....relaxing or straightening using ceramic irons (aka hair straightners)?

it depends.... relaxer is a permanent.. using the ceramic iron is a temp straightener.. there are many women with a relaxer who also use the flat iron so.. it really depends on the texture of your hair and what you are trying to achieve.. ;o)What is better....relaxing or straightening using ceramic irons (aka hair straightners)?
Relaxers completely damage your natural hair because they are permanent, and if you want to go back to your natural hair then you'll eventually have to cut off the relaxed hair. Straighting without using a good heat protectant or using too much heat can also damage your hair, but probably not as much as a relaxer which can actually damage your scalp and make your hair completely fall out. Relaxers who flat iron are doing this get their hair pin straight minus the frizz. You can also get natural hair pin straight with a flat iron - you need the right combination of hair products and tools.What is better....relaxing or straightening using ceramic irons (aka hair straightners)?
african american hair- chemical relaxers


caucasian hair- straightening iron





even if a white girl uses a chemical relaxed, it is not going to look like naturally straight hair. it CAN be damaging- depending on the skill level of the technician.





i use a straightening blow dryer thing. ceramic iron, chi heat protector spray, and biosilk something at the end. almost looks like naturally st. hair and doesn't seem too damaged
