From my past experience, when I used to relax my hair, the only time a relaxer burned me was when I went the day after taking out my braids. I had meant to go to the stylist just for a wash, deep conditioner and a press of my new growth, but then decided to relax it. I really had no idea that it was WRONG to relax hair right after braids. Apparently, neither did my stylist. It hurt, I coudn't take it so I got up and told her that I needed it rinsed out right away. It scared me. The end result was a painful relaxer application or attempted applicaton, a relaxer that didn't take, too much new growth for me to handle with the two completely different textures left on my head and therefore lots of breakage. I didn't know how to take care that. That was before the hair boards and lots of information online I came across in the last couple of years regarding how to best care for both relaxed and natural hair (some links below) The reason I felt like my head was on fire for the first time since I had started relaxing my hair was because my scalp was so sensitive from having been in the braids for two or two and a half months. Had I known, or even had an inkling that this would happen, I would have happily waited at least two weeks. You should do the same. In the meantime, keep your hair conditioned and moisturized.

Bananas are reported to contain enzymes which can relax and help calm you. FYI, the tooth brushing won't help the relaxation, but it'll keep your clarinet in better overall shape. Concentrate only on playing. Only let your mind think about each note as you're playing it and what you need to do to go to the next note. Remember that your band director does not want you to play poorly! S/he is on your side. Band directors should not "play favorites" but should evaluate the playing only. They don't want you to mess up! Some ideas:

I use Pantene Shampoo and conditioner - in separate bottles, not the 2 in 1 - the "Smooth and Sleek" kind. I then use Pantene Curl smoothing Moose on wet hair. My hair drys with very sleek and smooth curls. They aren't at all crunchy or frizzy. Hope this helps! I have extremely curly hair too.

You'll just have to Go For It. Find a comfortable chair or couch that you can rest your entire body on, set your timer for 20 minutes and MAKE YOURSELF become as limp as a ragdoll. Close your eyes and dont think, except to imagine the scent and image of a rose, a beach to hear the waves. Choose your image before you lay down and use all your senses in your image. Thats it. Ragdoll body, Imagination at work, reassurance of timer going off, precluding sleep. It works for me. Good Luck. 20 minutes? You'll just have to Go For It.
