Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Straightener (Relaxer).
Results are permanent on treated hair shafts and typically last several months until new growth appears. Most clients maintain straight hair for three to six months depending on hair growth rate, care routine, and touch-up schedule recommended by your stylist.
We assess each client's hair in a consultation to determine safety. Color-treated or slightly damaged hair may be relaxed with customized lower-strength formulas and conditioning treatments, while severely compromised hair might require rebuilding treatments before proceeding.
Arrive with clean, dry hair and avoid heavy oils or recent chemical treatments. Bring any history of chemical services and medications. Our stylist will perform a strand test and consultation to choose the proper formula and protect hair health.
Avoid washing or tying hair for 48 to 72 hours, use sulfate-free shampoos and deep conditioners, and limit heat styling. Schedule recommended trims and touch-ups, and follow stylist-recommended products for longevity and to preserve hair strength and moisture.
Yes — the relaxer chemically alters hair’s protein structure, producing long-lasting straightening until new, untreated growth appears. It's considered permanent on treated strands; however, overall texture may be managed or reversed as hair grows and with different chemical services.
Wait at least two weeks before coloring to reduce overlap of chemicals, though recommendations vary by hair condition. We’ll advise timing after evaluating your hair; sometimes color is safer before relaxing or performed months later for best results.
