FAQs
What hair types is the Super strength formula best suited for?
The Super strength formula is designed for individuals with coarser, more resistant hair textures. It is not recommended for fine, delicate, or damaged hair.
Do I need to do a strand test?
Yes, a strand test is highly recommended. It helps you determine the correct processing time for your hair and checks for any adverse reactions or damage.
How often can I use this relaxer?
This depends on your hair growth and type, but generally, relaxers are applied to new growth (roots) every 6-8 weeks. Never apply a relaxer to previously relaxed hair in the same session.
Can I use this relaxer if my hair is dyed?
It is generally not recommended to use a relaxer on color-treated or bleached hair, as it can increase the risk of damage and breakage. Consult with a professional stylist if you have dyed hair.
What is the role of Extra Virgin Olive Oil in this relaxer?
Extra Virgin Olive Oil is included for its nourishing properties. It helps to rebuild, restore, and repair hair, adding shine and contributing to a healthier feel during and after the relaxing process.
Is this a lye or no-lye relaxer?
This is a no-lye conditioning relaxer system.
What should I do after relaxing my hair?
After rinsing the relaxer, you must use a neutralizing shampoo to restore your hair's normal pH balance. Follow with a deep conditioning treatment to replenish moisture and nutrients.
Troubleshooting
Hair breakage after use
Ensure you performed strand and patch tests, followed processing times accurately, and used the correct neutralizing shampoo and conditioner. Avoid excessive heat styling and use moisturizing treatments.
Scalp irritation or burning
Stop the application immediately if significant burning occurs. Rinse thoroughly with cool water and shampoo. Ensure you did not over-stretch the hair during application and that the relaxer did not come into prolonged contact with the scalp. Consider using a protective gel around the hairline.
Relaxer did not straighten hair completely
This could be due to incorrect processing time or the hair being too resistant for the initial application. Re-application should only be considered after a significant waiting period (e.g., several weeks) and after consulting the product instructions or a professional stylist, as re-relaxing too soon can cause damage.
Hair feels dry after treatment
Rinse thoroughly with a neutralizing shampoo and follow with a deep conditioning treatment. Incorporate moisturizing hair products into your routine, such as leave-in conditioners and hair oils.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This is a chemical hair treatment system and requires careful adherence to the included instructions. Always perform a strand test and a patch test 48 hours before full application to check for allergies and to determine the correct processing time for your hair type.
Compatibility:
This Super strength formula is recommended for coarser hair types. It is generally not recommended for fine, damaged, bleached, or previously chemically treated hair (such as perms or color treatments) without professional consultation. Using it on inappropriate hair types can lead to severe breakage and damage.
Care:
After using the relaxer, it's crucial to follow the post-treatment instructions, which typically involve neutralizing the hair and deep conditioning. Regular use of moisturizing shampoos and conditioners is recommended to maintain hair health and moisture. Avoid heat styling immediately after relaxing to allow hair to recover. Use strengthening treatments periodically.
