I'm pretty sure my mom gave me one of those Just For Me relaxers when I was 5. I just started natural 3-4 years ago.
For most of the time it was relaxed my hair was fairly long, thick, and somewhat healthy. However, when I turned like 15 it started thinning and I didn't like that.
Anyways, relaxing a 9 month year old is just beyond extreme.

I never had a perm in my life and @ 23 obviously never will..I really don't know what can be done for that girl's hair except moisturize & pray it grows in properly. What's worse is she may feel like she needs another perm 'cause mom doesn't think her hair is good enough & pounded that negative thought in her head..

I watched Good Hair and it really opened my eyes to the subject. I wouldn't want any woman that I care about EVER putting relaxers in their hair.
I was talking to a natural female and she said that there was an autopsy of a woman that has been getting relaxers put in her hair for decades and showed layers upon layers of mold and mildew under her scalp. I will try and find the article for anyone interested.

Ok cool. I am waiting for her to send me the link for it.
For all my scientific dudes out there I have a question. Would it be crazy to believe that these chemicals from those relaxers can interfere with brain performance? Not sure if it can penetrate the scalp.........skull.....and down into the brain.
