Call franz Sebastian salon in Bethesda and ask for roger.

It’s harsh chemicals and it will cost $600-ish (depending on hair length) but it’s worth every penny

Here’s an example

Not OP but thanks for the recommendation. A stylist in Maryland who claims he’s an expert on Japanese straightening fried my hair and led to so much fallout.

I just checked the salon’s website and I don’t see Roger there. Did he move to a different salon?

They don't make white people relaxers so tuff.

Lady who has started using 'tuff' all over DCUM, please stop. It's awful.

You might also try Dominican salons. They do relaxers and do great round brush blowouts and are used to a wide range of hair textures. There are Dominican salons all over the DMV.

Can you please name a few in Nova?

I used to have my hair straightened in a salon twice a year. It lasted a long time. I would, of course, have to straighten the new growth but it was doable until I had another straightening treatment.

I’m questioning why women are posting needing to have the treatment every 6 to 8 weeks.

Can one use a relaxer on color treated hair? How well do relaxers work on gray/white hair?

Yes, you can relax color treated hair, but you will see more breakage. Yes, it works fine on gray or white hair. My aunt gets her hair relaxed and it is 100% grey.

Breakage is more likely the longer you stretch a relaxer. In high school, my mom couldn’t afford every 6-8 weeks and made me wait 3 months. Between freshman and sophomore year, I lost 6 inches. Once I started working, I could go more often and my hair broke off less. 4a/b thick, coarse hair.

This makes no sense. More harsh chemicals more frequently resulted in less breakage?

You clearly don't have 4a/b hair.

I think frizzy hair ages a person but good curls with a good cut don't. Have you ever gone to a Deva Curls stylist? Natural hair is very on trend right now. They can teach you how to style it and care for it properly.

This!! Natural hair texture is in. Frizzy isn’t, but you can have great curls without frizz with the right cut and styling. Get help! But not with chemicals

No, I don’t. OP’s question was for “white woman” hair.
