Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Relaxers/Short Pixie Styles/Tapered.

Appointments vary by hair density and customization but typically run 90–150 minutes. That includes consultation, relaxer application, rinsing, conditioning, and a precision taper cut. Allow extra time if you request deep treatments or detailed styling.

Yes when performed by experienced stylists. We select gentle formulas, perform strand tests, and closely monitor processing to protect integrity. Controlled application ensures texture is preserved and overprocessing is avoided for short, tapered looks.

Most clients retouch roots every 8–12 weeks to maintain smoothness without excessive processing. Tapered pixies generally benefit from trims every 4–8 weeks to keep the shape sharp and the silhouette tidy.

Use sulfate-free shampoos, moisturizing conditioners, and leave-in treatments. Limit heat styling, protect edges, sleep on silk, and schedule regular trims. Follow our stylist's product recommendations to preserve texture and prevent dryness between visits.

Absolutely. We assess hair health and may recommend gradual processing, protective trims, or partial texturizers. Our approach prioritizes safe, controlled transformation to achieve the desired tapered pixie without unnecessary damage.

Relaxers change hair texture but not follicle density. With proper care, growth continues normally. Overprocessing can cause breakage, so we emphasize gentle formulas, strengthening treatments, and regular trims to maintain thickness appearance.
