Supplies

Whether you are a professional hair stylist or a do-it-yourselfer, it’s important to have the right supplies to properly and safely apply your hair relaxer:

Applicator Sticks: These wooden sticks are used for mixing and applying hair relaxer.

Processing Caps: Some hair relaxers require the hair to be covered for a period of time while the ingredients penetrate the follicles. Although many use saran wrap, if you want to do it the professional, easier way, then you need processing caps.

Disposable Gloves: These are a must-have item when using hair relaxers. Because the chemicals are not meant to come in direct contact with the skin, it’s important to protect your fingers and hands during the hair relaxing process.
