Tex-laxing...?

(x-posted in 3c and in 4a)
Hello everyone! I used to be VERY active on this board until about two years ago when I moved to Germany. Since then, I "tex-laxed" my hair (I'm thinking this means using a relaxer to texturize?) with Elucence's relaxer and had pretty okay results.
For the past year, I've been wearing lace wigs (which are FABULOUS!) and haven't processed the 5-8 inches of new growth. (Oi...my arms hurt thinking about combing it...)
Anyways, I was originally psyched on the Just For Me Texture Softener (not left on as long as the box states) and the Hair Rules products but I haven't really heard proof positive reviews regarding either (except the mysterious Clarice and Variety...)
Just wondering if anyone has suggestions for a tex-lax? I was thinking about trying Hawaiian Silky??
Thoughts? Comments? Oh mighty oracles of curly wisdom SPEAK TO ME!!!! ^_^

i went to the hair cuttery (a chain salon) but there were lots of black stylists
it was in and combed thru in less than 10 min it didnt have a strong smell and the stylist said it was in fact dif than a relax
my hair is a little softer easier to detangle and has a little less shrink when wet i moisturize constantly got it in aug 08 i guess the more u do it it will loosen the curl might get 1 or 2 more
u do have to moisturize constantly it makes the curl better and protects the hair
