Dear all,

I have been toying with the idea of low cut for a while but I think am gonna go for it. Am thinking toni bradxon kind of short hair with my nigerian hair. Any ideas on products or hair tips. I plan to relax my hair before I go visit a barber

I don't think a barber is the best for styling. They don't really do much of styling in their line of duty and you may not get important tools you may need for the styling

OK. So what do you suggest. Is there like a really good stylist you can recommend. By the way am in Lagos

Am not in a position to recommend any. But consider you may need at least a dryer or flat Iron, a person who has done it before. Male salonists do better cuts too.

The products should depend on the texture of your hair. It's long since I used chemicals but for perm I remember DL worked well for hard hair in those days. Genuine products should be sealed to avoid tampering. Buy from a reputable store to be safe. A fake product can lead to serious breakage.

In that case, go for the mildest. You can even use products designed for children. I think they are less harsh. The Chemicals are also classified as regular and super. Super is harsh, for coarse hair while regular is for soft hair. Ask a professional for the mild brands.

And also, don't scratch or wash your hair for the period preceding application, to avoid burning.
