FAQs
Can I use this on color-treated hair?
It is generally not recommended to use relaxers on hair that has been chemically lightened or bleached, as this can lead to severe breakage. Always perform a strand test first.
How often should I touch up my roots?
Most users touch up their new growth every 6 to 8 weeks, depending on hair growth speed and texture.
What if I get the relaxer in my eyes?
Rinse your eyes immediately with cool water for several minutes and seek medical attention if irritation persists.
Can I wash my hair before applying?
It is recommended to avoid washing your hair for at least 48 hours before application to allow natural oils to protect your scalp.
Is this kit suitable for all hair types?
This specific kit is formulated for fine to medium hair textures. If your hair is very coarse or resistant, it may require a different strength formula.
Troubleshooting
Relaxer is not straightening hair effectively.
The hair may be resistant or the product may have been applied too sparsely. Ensure full saturation and consult the timing guide for your specific hair texture.
Scalp irritation during application.
Immediately rinse the product from the area with cool water and the neutralizing shampoo. Discontinue use if irritation persists.
Hair feels dry after treatment.
Ensure you are using the full amount of the replenishing conditioner provided in the kit and leaving it on for the specified time to lock in moisture.
