My roomate in college was african american. And she used this amazing shampoo - and I cant remember what it is called - except it has PINK in the title and it is for african american hair.
I was out of shampoo one morning and borrowed it, and let me tell you...that shampoo was amazing! I have never ever ever had such bouncy shiny awesome blonde hair. If anyone knows the name of it please post it!

I'm not sure if it's Luster's or not, I didn't know they made shampoo!

I thought they only made the pink oil. Anyway...
Volgirl, if you are comfortable, this is what I would say do... go to a hair shop frequented by African-Americans. I'm Black, and I wouldn't know what to call them, lol. But most times, they are operated by either African-Americans or Asians. The reason I say try this type of shop is because they will have more of an "ethnic" hair selection (for lack of a better term) than would somewhere like Sally's. Anyway, walk around, up and down the ailes, sniff some stuff (lol, cuz that's just fun, lol), and look for the bottle that your roommate had. If you still remember what it looks like. And then buy a small bottle, in case you have the wrong one, you only waste a little bit of money.
Now, remember, most of us don't wash our hair every day, so I'm not sure if the shampoos are made "differently" because of that. Wow, this is interesting, lol. Soror Steeltrap, ask your Cosmetologist sister, lol.
Ok, now, AggieAXO, about the relaxers. If you are talking about the same type of relaxers that Black people (I would've said women, but you know we have these Al Sharpton and James Brown characters, LOL!) use, BE CAREFUL!!!! Because some of them can have some strong chemicals, and you hair WILL fall out. My suggestion, and I'm not a cosmotologist, but I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night (j/k, LMAO, I am giddy today, lmao)... ANYWAY... I would buy a Just For Me relaxer. Just For Me is for children's hair, so it's milder. Test a portion of your hair, in an inconspicuous place. So this way, if it falls out, you only lose a portion, and you won't be bald.
