Virgin Thio Relaxer
1-2.
Section the hair into five sec-
tions for control. Subdivide the
back in half. Subdivide the front into
three sections, top and sides. Apply
base (protective cream) to the
entire hairline and ears.
3-4.
Begin at the back top section
or where the hair is the most
resistant. Use 1/4" (.75) horizontal
partings. Apply relaxer 1/4" (.75
cm) to 1/2" (1.25 cm) away from
the scalp up to the porous ends to
both sides of the strand.
Do not
touch the scalp with the tail of the
comb or brush while parting. Work
from the top to the bottom of each
section. Then bring each parting
down. Complete the back sections
using the same techniques.

Application methods for a virgin thio relaxer may vary. Product may be applied
directly from the scalp to the ends. Follow manufacturer's directions and your
regulating agency for specific guidelines. And remember, always do a complete
hair/scalp analysis prior to beginning a relaxer service.
