If you HAVE to get your hair relaxed, have the beautician take a look at the state of your hair. She'll likely have a great idea of your hair's shape.

I would, however, recommend that you get your hair pressed and not relax it at all. Relaxing it will only kill the great strong hair that you've been growing all these years. You'd be surprised at how great and thick and shiny it will look after a press.

Good luck either way, and happy GRAD!
