* Hair relaxers chemically straighten hair by breaking down the disulfide bonds that give hair its natural curl pattern.
* Perms reshape the hair by breaking and reforming these same bonds around a new shape (like a rod).
Using a relaxer as a perm would likely cause severe damage, breakage, and potentially even hair loss. It could also lead to chemical burns on your scalp. It would not create curls or waves.
If you want to perm your hair, use a product specifically designed for perming. It is always best to consult a professional stylist who can assess your hair and recommend the right perm treatment for your hair type.
