I got some good results from using African Pride Super creme relaxer the other day. My hair is just too nuts to control. I have coarse caucasian very wavy hair. I left the relaxer on for the max (~ 20 minutes or so) and when I washed it out, my hair felt pretty terrible. I could hardly get a comb thru it and it felt like brillo. I thought it was a gonner at first, but I used a ton of Pantene creme rinse and let it air dry and it felt like real hair again. Now it doesn't take much effort every morning to get my hair to lay right. Yippee! Hope it lasts for a while.
I would caution, however, that you test your hair first in case yours isn't as resilient to drastic measures as mine is. Also, use the skin protectant that comes with it. The stuff can be caustic to the skin (especially small abrasions/pimples) and leave your neck a bit burned.
