Relaxers & Straightening Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about relaxers, silk presses, and iron work care.
A deluxe silk press typically lasts five to fourteen days depending on hair type, humidity, and maintenance. With sulfate-free products, a silk pillowcase, and careful styling, many clients maintain smooth results up to two weeks.
Relaxers chemically alter the hair's structure, so they are permanent on treated strands. Applied professionally with proper assessment, timing, and conditioning, risks are minimized; we customize formulas and include deep-conditioning to protect strength and elasticity.
A virgin relaxer is the first full-coverage application on untreated hair, while a retouch treats only new growth. Retouches preserve previously relaxed lengths; correct timing and trims keep texture even and help prevent breakage.
Arrive with clean, product-free hair or follow stylist instructions. Bring your color and chemical history and communicate your desired outcome. Avoid heavy oils and be prepared for a consultation; most services require two to three hours.
Most stylists recommend touch-ups every eight to twelve weeks based on growth rate and hair condition. Too-frequent touch-ups increase breakage risk, while waiting too long causes heavy new growth. We'll assess and recommend a personalized schedule.
Use sulfate-free shampoo, regular deep conditioning, and heat protectant when styling. Sleep on silk or satin, limit wetting in humid climates, and follow our maintenance treatments and trims to extend straight styles and preserve hair health.
