What is the difference between thio and hydroxide relaxers?

Thio relaxers use ammonium thioglycolate to break the disulfide bonds in the hair, while hydroxide relaxers use hydroxide ions to break the disulfide bonds. Thio relaxers are milder and are often used on fine or damaged hair, while hydroxide relaxers are stronger and are better for coarse or resistant hair.


How can you effectively dilute sodium hydroxide for safe handling and use?
