Hydroxide relaxers are not compatble with thio relaxers, permanent waving, or soft curl permanents because they use a different chemistry. Thio relaxers use thio to breake the disulfide bonds. The high pH of a thio relaxer is needed to swell the hair but it is the thio that breaks the disulfide bonds. Hydroxide relaxers have a pH that is so high that the alkalinity alone breaks the disulfide bonds.

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.
Don't know
A thio group is a functional group in organic chemistry where a sulfur atom replaces an oxygen atom in a carbonyl group. It is commonly denoted as -S- in chemical structures. Thio groups can be found in compounds such as thioesters, thioamides, and thioketones.

Yes. Relaxers straightens the hair if applied properly and in sections. Relaxers are to be applied to the new growth only.

The main ingredient in a Sodium Hydroxide relaxer is Lye. A good relaxer for a sensitive scalp is Guandine which is a Hydrogen relaxer, and a Thio relaxer, which will remove some of the curl, but not completely relax the hair.
You do not buy relaxers based on the colour of your hair.
