Diff. brand of neutralizing shampoo than relaxert?

[UmSumayyah]

I know this has been asked before and I promise you, I did a search. But I already have a headache and it's getting bigger trying to do the search.
Can I use a different brand of neutralizing shampoo than the relaxer? I have 2 different brands of neutralizing shampoo, but both are different from the relaxer I bought.
If its a bad idea I will go out and get the right shampoo. If not I'd rather use what is already in the closet.
Ideas? First or second-hand experiences?

Please?

Hairdressers do it all the time. I've never tried this myself though, but it's been done on my head.

Ditto. My stylist uses Vitale relaxer and Affirm Fiberguard neutralizing shampoo.

I would really like to know the answer to this as well since I have this HUGE bottle of Motions Neutralizing shampoo that I should use up!!

I've done that a LOT, using a different brand neutralizer. I had a generic neutralizing shampoo that I used with any relaxer. No problems. As long as its neutralizing shampoo it should be fine.

I do it, I primarily used Isoplus Neutralizing shampoo with Color alarm for my relaxers for at least 4 years now.

I've done this many times with no adverse effects.

Sure!

I use Elasta QP relaxer and Motions Neutralizing Shampoo. I haven't had any problems at all!

my dumb stylist who may become my ex-stylist says "Oh no Ankhesenamen, I have to use the same brand of relaxer and neutralizing shampoo. So leave all that other stuff at home."

look i am really trying not to be mean and hostile but i abhor all stylists now

You and me both. My last experience has me so traumatized that I don't think I will ever trust a stylist again. I swear I'd be this close to bra-strap if it hadn't been for her.
