What Happens When You Relax Your Hair Twice In The Same Day?

Long before I went natural, when I was still enamored by the slickness of my new relaxed edges, I still I had a healthy fear of perms. The smell, the burning, the panic that set in when they’d sat too long, the scars they often left behind, I knew they were nothing to play with. Nothing at all.

Getting one relaxer was pushing it. Dying your hair and then getting a relaxer was just asking for your hair to fall out and getting two relaxers too close together…well, your scalp might just split open and your personal brain might slide out of your skull to ask you what the hell were you thinking?!

But you know the internet is full of daredevils and risk-takers. And Gigi Beauty, a Youtube vlogger, decided to relax her hair twice…in the same day.

And as you might imagine, the results were nothing nice. Take a look at the results in the video below.

Thankfully, Gigi relaxed her hair twice as an experiment. She was always intending on shaving her hair to completely start over.

But even still, the condition of her scalp underneath the strands of hair was still frightening.

I’m sure none of us would ever do this at this point in our maturation. But still, just a reminder, overexposure to strong chemicals is no bueno.

Thankfully, Gigi looks good with a short cut.
