Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Relaxer/Deep Conditioner.

Most clients see results lasting 6 to 10 weeks depending on hair growth, texture, and aftercare. Relaxer effect remains until new growth appears; deep-conditioning benefits can diminish sooner without regular moisturizing and salon or at-home maintenance.

Yes, often safely with a thorough consultation and strand test. We assess prior color processes and choose compatible relaxer strengths and conditioners. In some cases we may recommend spacing services or alternative treatments to protect color and integrity.

Arrive with a clear history of chemical services and bring any product notes. Avoid heavy oils or recent intense treatments. Our stylists can shampoo and consult on-site, but clean, dry hair and accurate service history speed assessment and delivery.

A relaxer chemically alters hair structure and typically delivers a permanent change until new growth appears; deep-conditioning does not change curl pattern. We customize strength and advise timing to balance desired straightness with hair health.

Most stylists recommend 8 to 12 weeks between relaxer services to protect hair integrity. Timing depends on growth rate, hair condition, and maintenance. Regular deep-conditioning and targeted protein treatments help extend time between salon visits.

Use sulfate-free cleansing, moisturizing shampoos, and rich conditioners. Recommend leave-in hydrators, lightweight oils, and heat protectants. Alternate gentle protein treatments with hydrating masks, and follow stylist-recommended homecare to maintain strength, moisture, and longevity of the relaxer/deep-conditioning results.
