Affirm Sensitive Gentle Assurance Scalp Protector by Avlon for Unisex - 11 oz Protector

This helped ALOT. I used copious amounts in each section of my hair and around my crown. The first time I only used vaseline and it burned alot. When I used the Scalp Protector and Vaseline, I was able to apply the relaxer with out any tingling or burning. However, when I started to wash it out, I did feel some minor discomfort when the water hit my scalp. Still recommend.

I will never perm my hair again without it. Absolutely no burning or stinging. I’m a customer for life! Best product I’ve ever tried.

The base that I usually used was hard to find in the past few months. I tried this one as an alternative. It is quite effective. It does an ok job. I am using a base that is a lot more effective because it allows your scalp to stand the relaxer longer. As an alternative, this one will do.

Definitely worth buying to protect the scalp and skin..

This helps tremendously when used before relaxing.

I love this stuff; however, it's hard to get it out. I normally have to take the cap off. I'll probably try cutting the tip to make it a little wider.

I put s curl texturizer in my hair bc another YouTuber had mentioned this. The first thing I love about it is that it has an applicator. The substance is very thick so you might need to make a bigger hole or squeeze harder but I put this all over my scalp, neck, forehead, and my ears and I was so surprised, being as sensitive as I am, that I did not burn whatsoever. I could have left it on for probably another hour and been fine. This is wonderful and I definitely will purchase again. I have enough to last me for a long time and many more touch-ups.

This is the best basting product to use for a sensitive scalp before you get a relaxer. It has menthol that keeps your scalp cool during the procedure.

After 13 years of dreads, I have the most sensitive scalp known to man. Usually i have to rinse before the relaxer has time to process. Not when i use this stuff though! Didn't feel a thing, not even a tingle so was able to let the relaxer do it job; finally!

Delivered before estimated date, came very quickly so I was really pleased with the service. I have a very sensitive scalp so I always double base, once at home and then when I get to the salon. As I am now self relaxing, I still do this to be sure not to burn. I used my Summit sensitive scalp relaxer a couple of hours before then I applied this right before relaxing. You don't need much at all, I really like the easy application due to the bottle and again scent is very mild and faint which I like. Looking at the ingredients, it also has menthol, like my Summit base so i feel reassured it definitely has the right ingredients to protect and soothe the scalp. I probably don't use as much as a person who doesn't double base, in which case I'd say this bottle will last you 3-4 applications depending on how much you like to use when you base. For me it did the job and worked well with my base so i definitely recommend it.

This has to be the best scalp protector on the market. I relax my own hair and it did not burn even though I did scratch my scalp, very good and worth buying

I recently started relaxing my hair at home and was looking for a reliable scalp protector to minimize discomfort. I'm so glad I found the Avlon Affirm Gentle Assurance Scalp Protector! It has truly improved my entire relaxing experience. On my last salon visit, I noticed my hairdresser using this product as a base before applying the relaxer to avoid scalp burn. I was impressed, so I decided to purchase it for my at-home relaxing sessions. Let me tell you, it's been a game-changer. This scalp protector does exactly what it promises. It creates a protective barrier on my scalp, significantly reducing any stinging or burning sensation during the relaxing process. It feels gentle and doesn't leave my hair feeling greasy or weighed down. It truly protects my scalp and allows for a much more comfortable and stress-free relaxing experience. I highly recommend the Avlon Affirm Gentle Assurance Scalp Protector to anyone who relaxes their hair, especially at home. It's a must-have for a comfortable and safe relaxing process.

Brilliant for basing the scalp and gently on the ends of hair. Scalp had no challenges as usually quite sensitive, this helped a lot.
