Hair can become dry and brittle due to intensive chemical treatment or insufficient care, leaving hair unhealthy and lifeless. This no-lye product from Dark and Lovely is a great solution for nourishment while relaxing your curls.
Perfect for straight, silky, shiny results with added nourishment New moisturising benefits added to an advanced no-lye conditioning formula use a combination of natural ingredients and body-enhancing polymers. The formula infuses and seals moisturisation into each and every strand, providing a soft and full finish — not only is hair silky straight, it has ultimate body and shine.
A relaxing system built with reversal of damage in mind Relaxing chemically treated hair can sometimes compound existing damage. This system is built with Shea Butter specifically to provide nourishment to make damaged, fragile hair strong and less prone to breakage and split ends, so it aims to reverse some of the damage caused by previous chemical treatments alongside relaxing.

How to Use and Care for Moisture Plus No Lye Relaxer
Mandatory Strand Test : Do a strand test before applying the relaxer. If results are satisfactory, proceed with application. If irritation or breakage occurs, do not use.
Prep: Part hair into sections. Use a protective base (petroleum jelly) on the scalp, hairline, ears, and nape of the neck. Wear the protective gloves provided throughout the relaxing process, including when rinsing and shampooing afterward.
Apply: Start application from the back of the head to the front, avoiding the scalp. On virgin hair, apply from mid-lengths to ends first, then apply at the roots. For touch-ups, apply to new growth only.
Targeted Timing: Smooth hair and do not exceed the maximum recommended processing time for your hair type. When time is up, rinse the relaxer out of hair with lukewarm water.
Storage: Shampoo with the accompanying neutralising shampoo until the lather turns from pink to white. Follow with the accompanying deep conditioning treatment for best results. Style as desired.

- Do not use on hair that is fragile, breaking, splitting, or otherwise damaged.
- If you have permanent or demi-permanent hair colour, wait at least 2 weeks before relaxing.
