What are the benefits of Olaplex on relaxed hair? Olaplex rebuilds the hairs disulfide bonds. Disulfide bonds are responsible for the hairs elasticity and strength. During chemical services, disulfide bonds break, causing the hair to weaken. Olaplex prevents breakage and leaves your hair a lot stronger after the chemical services by rebuilding these strong bonds. If you would like to find out m...

The Affirm Conditioning Relaxer process. Affirm Relaxer retains up to 81% of the original fiber elasticity for stronger hair. In the video, I discuss why I like Affirm Relaxer, and recommend it to clients? I also show how I apply relaxer to the hair, not the scalp, which prevents burning during the relaxer application.

Hi! 😊 I recently purchased this relaxer system and have a quick question. I purchased the 5 in 1 reconstructor and the Positive Link conditioner. Do I choose one or the other? Or can I mix the two after I have rinsed out the relaxer?
Adding relaxer from already processed ends first is the craziest thing I've ever seen!!!😮 your actions blatantly contradicting you words
My actions do not contradict anything that I said. Her hair was not processed properly and I simply fixed it. Thanks for your comment.
Were to have the serum thank you
Hello. The ink to purchase the serum is here: www.neogenesis.com/product/hair-thickening-serum/pc/sophiae/?campaign=Case%20Study%20Two%20RUclips%20LIve%20
Pls after the shampoo can u use conditioner
Hello. Sure you can. I used the positive link conditioner
@sophiaknowshair OK thanks
Both the stylist and the client are so beautiful.
Thank you.
@@sophiaknowshair You're welcome.
Hello, thank you for this video! Would you happen to know where I can find the Professional instructions that come on paper? I lost the paper, and now I don't know if I leave it on for 15 or 18 minutes.
Hello. Thank you. I’m not sure where you can get the paper but the 5n1 Reconstructor stays on for 5 minutes. Thank you for your question.
This was an excellent showcase pertaining to hair loss. I am glad that you have also, mentioned men as well due to men are often not discussed when it comes to hair loss!! Great Job
Thanks. Yes, many men deal with hair loss and need help as well. Thank you
Music way louder than the stylist 🙄
I’m sorry about that
Great work Sophie and Scarlett I agree on this advises especially ,having awareness of our scalp n hair health before adding extensions I love trimming split ends before adding extensions, n moisture treatment + hair lotion.
Thank you for tuning in. I appreciate your feedback. I’m glad you received the message behind the content. You said it perfectly. Know your hair and scalp health before getting protective styles. ❤
Fantastic seeing your dedication to hair care No salon use affirm where I live in Australia Would be great to have access to buying the genuine affirm , did hairdressing for 16 years and I value good quality products . 3 failed online purchase
Thank you. I appreciate it. I do love pamper the scalp and taking care of my clients hair. Did you try Cosmoprof? If you have a license you may be able to order it from there.

Hi Love . I ah e a question… what do you use to detox relaxed hair without causing damage ? And how do I apply it to my hair ? One more question .. I have relaxed my hair well me once and my sister the other time .. and I still have a good amount of texture in my hair shafts. I also revert at the roots and hair shaft pretty quickly .. and I want to try the affirm line of relaxers definitely after watching your tutorial on how to apply it. I have a lot of tangling and just my hair seems to be a mess and I had been natural for 10years almost tailbone length hair but now I have a lot of shedding and breakage. Can you please help Me in anyway ?
Sorry. I over looked this question. It would be hard to answer your questions without seeing your hair and scalp. Plenty must have changed since you asked me this a year ago.
You two have a very beautiful skin girls L❤❤ it👄👄
Thank you. I feel special ❤
Will have to switch to kids relaxer. Front of my scalp so sensitive used regular and front of my head is red.
Have you tried going natural? If you are sensitive to relaxer, there are alternatives, such as the Affirm Texture Release or SilkOut System Taming Treatment. You can see if there is a stylist that provides one of them in London. ❤
@@sophiaknowshair thanks will check. Was informed children's relaxers are milder. Going natural isn't an option at present as my hair is about 14+ inches and can be hard to comb when very due. Currently relax twice a year.
@@zeea6507 I understand
Need to find a professional salon in London that can do this.
Ok. I heard London has excellent hair salons. Good luck on your search
Very good information about protective hairstyles. I know by personal experience the hair braiding from the Africans caused my hair to fall out when I was a teenager and I had to cut all of my hair off and start over. The best way to grow your hair is by the right products for shampooing, conditioner etc and a relaxed scalp. Not by weaving, hair extensions, etc. I thank God I did not get permanent hair loss😇
This is true. Protective styles are not for everyone and need to be used in moderation.
@@sophiaknowshair Yup. I have not worn hair extensions in 25 years since it made my hair fall out
Please were can i get some to buy

Sophia looks like MC lyte!🥰
Lol. I wish. Thank you 😊
How come a condition or wasn’t used following the neutralizing shampoo? How many times do you shampoo the hair with neutralizing shampoo? Very informative video 🙌🏾
Hello. I used a conditioner after I rinsed out the neutralizing shampoo. I used the Kera Care Crème Humecto Conditiner. I neutralize twice. Thank you. I’m glad the information was helpful. Thanks for watching.
@@sophiaknowshair thank you Sophia!
@@theonus1 your welcome
@@sophiaknowshair Is a deep conditioner needed? Or at the sink is enough?
@@vigirl340 Hello. I used a conditioner after following all three steps of the relaxer. I used Kera Care Humecto.
When did you apply the leave in detangler? Was it after you blow dried her hair ?
Should the protecto still be used on all the hair even if it’s just a touch up being done ? Is the gentle assurance used on the hairline as well or just the scalp ?
Hello. Thanks for the question. Gentle Assurance should be used on the whole scalp because it protects your scalp from irritation from the relaxer. The Protecto is used to protect previous relaxed hair from damage so it is beneficial to use it for relaxer touch ups.
@@sophiaknowshair Thank you. I’m trying to get my stylist to try this brand since I heard good things . Is the Protecto just applied to the non-new growth then ?
@@remiolanipekun5628 Ok. Yes. Only the hair that is not relaxed needs Protecto.
Hello Sophia. Thanks for posting this! I am thinking of doing my own relaxer due to COVID. My stylist always used Affirm Dry/Itchy Scalp My hair type is 4C Haven't had a relaxer in 3 yrs. Attempting to buy everything online. The Wal-mart site has a box of 9 applications and an activator (to stir in) looks like the other items would have to be bought separately? Is there a version that does not require the activator (didn't see that part in your video) Also, do the products listed above have special sensitive/dry/itchy formulas? Is there a site that sells the full kit without having to buy alacarte? Is the 'Positive Link' product on the Avlon website necessary? Signed, In Desperate Need of Your Help!
Excellent information! Thank you for sharing your expertise with us.
Hello. Anytime. Thanks for the comment. I appreciate it
Hello! Great video! I am getting my first professional relaxer this Friday and I’m so excited/ nervous! I have been natural for the last 9 years, but have always worn my hair under braids, wigs, or clip in extensions. My natural type 4 hair is so difficult to work with that i just have to get a relaxer! The stylist I am going to is using affirm relaxer as well! I currently have braids, and will remove them Thursday do you think It’s safe to have a relaxer so soon?
Hello. Thank you for the compliment. I always recommend waiting a week to relax you mr hair after taking down braids. Be sure to base your scalp with Vaseline or an oil like jojoba oil the night before just to have a slight barrier on your scalp. Also the stylist will most likely base your scalp the day of as well. I hope this helps you and good luck. All the best and thanks for the question.
she set it for 30 mins thank you

HI M UINJA BEFIFOGROIRR
CITY AFTRIRMILLIONPHIRESTAR!
Hi could anyone help with the differences in the affirm relaxers please. Thank you in advance
Hello. The Fibergaurd relaxer is great for color treated hair. It is a gentle relaxer. The Affrim Classic Relaxer is for people who want a straighter relaxer outcome. They also have a sensitive scalp relaxer which can be used if your scalp gets irritated easily. I hope this helps. Thank you
Thank you so much. I am having trouble getting ahold of the affirm normal I’m guessing that is classic. Which would you recommend of your suggestions
@@Keliyahrenee I would have to see your hair and know a little more about your hair history. I don’t recommend relaxing your own hair. If your looking for a gentler relaxer Fibergaurd is the way to go. If you want straighter results, the classic is the way to go.
@@sophiaknowshair thank you for your response I am in the UK so I was wondering when you say classic do you mean the sensitive one as classic is not available here.
She has gorgeous hair already. She looks like she could just have a simple flat iron. Her hair is pretty.
Thank you. Yes she could do just a flat iron but she wanted her hair to stay straight without reverting. ❤️
So what is the difference between the 5n1 and the positive link conditioner you don’t use conditioner after the shampoo?
Positive link is used after the No Lye Relaxer application 5n1 is used on the Affirm Classic relaxer.
Yes. Definitely use a conditioner after the neutralizer is rinsed out.
Wat taem
Gdghh
What happened to the conditioner - positive link she missed that out after the shampoo? If my hair feels stripped this stuff makes it feel like silk instantly
Hello I used the 5n1 Reconstructer after I rinsed the relaxer.
Thank you for the heart response. I was asking you since my hair is color treated and scalp sensitive, which relaxer should I start with?
I’m sorry I must have over looked the question. Definitely, it depends on the type of color you have, if your hair is bleached it is not recommended to use no lye relaxers. If you have permanent color the no lye would be more appropriate or fiber gaurd can be used. The stylist must not get the relaxer on the scalp to help avoid burning.

Hello Sophia? How are you? I had stopped relaxing my hair since 2012. I've cut off the old relaxed hair and started going natural. In doing so, I was wearing either braids or wigs until my hair got to shoulder length. Anyway, I started doing a silk press (using my electric pressing comb, flat iron, and marcel curling iron). Natural hair is a lot of work. I'm just about ready to go back to relaxing it. I watched your video and you are very professional. I currently have color treated hair as well. I also have sensitive scalp and in the past, I easily burned. I am interested in using the Affirm relaxer system. Since my hair is color treated and scalp is sensitive, which type of Affirm Relaxer should I start with?
Hello. Thank you so much for the compliments. If you have a permanent hair color you have to be extremely careful with relaxing your hair. There are several factors to consider. Is your hair strong enough to have both chemicals? Do you have dye in your hair or did you use lightener? Affirm Fiber Gaurd is a good relaxer to start with. I don't recommend you relax your own hair. Mizani Fiber Gaurd or Affrim Fiber Gaurd is a good place to start. Also consulting with a cosmetologist that does relaxer on color-treated hair. There are other ways to have manageable hair without a relaxer. Such as using a smoothing treatment like Affirm Texture Release or SilkOut Taming Treatment. You can look these up as alternatives to softening your natural without irritating your scalp or causing hair breakage. Hope this helps.
@@sophiaknowshair Ok, thank you so much for the information. I will take that into consideration. I just miss having relaxed hair because it is so much easier for me to comb through. I have 4C hair that draws up so much after washing it. I have been using Cream of Nature permanent Hair Color because I do not like the grey in my hair. I have a friend who goes to a beautician who use Affirm in her hair and she gets it colored though.
Where are you located at in NY?
Hello. We are in Manhattan on 35th street. Check website crownworthy.com for address.
I’ve gone to the salon for several years for a affirm Avalon no lye relaxer . This was my first time doing one myself due to CoVId & and stylist taking off for months.
Did you like it?
Wow...i love the hair color the stylist has.
Hello. Thank you
Please tell me where this salon is located?
Hey. check out my website for business information. www.crownworthy.com
Hi Sophia, I would like to ask you please. I have a 4b hair type medium tick. I've been using Gentle Treatment Relaxer Regular (No-Lye). Is this any good for my hair or can I change to Affirm. If yes, which strength of Affirm should I use please, as it is better for the hair? Many thanks.
You're missing one crucial component of the Affirm Relaxer System, and that's Positive Link. It should be mixed with the 5-in-1 Reconstructor and applied to the hair and scalp as soon as you rinse the relaxer out.
I use mizani relaxers and products, I always use the same protein treatment before neutraliser and a conditioner after it. I never miss out conditioner, Way back when I went to a stylist they never used affirm on my head they said it was for sensitive scalp!whixhbot was for me back then. One thing I've discovered since I stopped putting oil on my scalp about 10 years ago (which is an irritant to the pores) I only use oils etc on the hair I don't burn anymore I've used several brand of relaxers not burned once, I will base my scalp for the relaxer only. My scalp don't even itch nor does it have dandruff of dry scalp, I wash it 1 or 2 times per week.
Why mix it? And no conditioner after the shampoo ?
Beautiful.💐🌺
Oh. Thank you.
Where does the reconstructor come in?
She Tried It The 5n1 Reconstructor is applied once the relaxer is rinsed out and before the neutralizer shampoo is used.
Hi Sophia I have been using the non lye and noticed alot of damage. Thinking of switching to the lye relaxer. What is the difference between the regular and the fiber guard. Please help.
Hello. The fiber guard is more gentle and designed for color treated hair. I use it for clients who need more of a gentle relaxer even though they may or may not have a relaxer. The classic relaxer is definitely stronger and gets the hair straighter so you have to know what density hair you have in order to choose the right relaxer.
My experience of lye relaxers is that they do not straighten the hair as much. I stick to no lye
How long did you wait to do the corrective relaxer from her previous relaxer?
Hello. We waited 8 weeks.
