How Do You *Style* After a Relaxer Touch-Up?

[CaliDiamond]

Hey Ladies!

I just did a touch-up today and as I sit here with at least 50 rollers in my neck length hair lookin crazy I was curious as to what everyone else's styling routine was after a touch-up.

What's the word!?

Airdry?
Twistout/Braidout?
Roller Set?
Wet Wrap?
Etc...

 

[Starronda]

I only get four touch ups a year. Each time I get a blow out after, go home and wrap my hair. I wear it out for a few days, then back to my wig and braids.

 

[charmtreese]

I always get rollersets after my touch-ups.

 

[MoMo]

I bun after a touch-up.

 

[Pompous Blue]

I always get rollersets after my touch-ups.

Me, too....after a 10 - 13 weeks stretch.

 

[ceebee3]

I rollerset with every wash/touch up.

 

[CaliDiamond]

I love roller sets because they allow you to see/show off your length

 

[january noir]

My hair stylist, blowdries and flatirons, or blowdries and curls.
I prefer the flatiron. 2 days later, it's back to up-do's and faux pony's (clips and pins only, no ponytail holders).

 

[SherylsTresses]

I usually get rollerset/wrap after my touch-ups and maintain with flexirods, pincurls or wrapping at night.

 

[KhandiB]

I always Flat Iron or do a FARS .. wear it out for about 2 - 4 weeks then its braid outs

 

[Nayeli]

My stylist blowdries and flat irons - I prefer having it straight for a while before I branch out into curls.

 

[longhairlover]

rollerset and wrap it up no flat iron or anything because the roots should be straight. do a saran wrap.

or I would blow dry then flat iron, but since I have beef with my blowdryer and flat iron i'd do the above instead.

 

[C@ssandr@]

I blowdry then wrap. I need to learn how to rollerset

 

[Chaosbutterfly]

After a touch up, my stylist rollersets my hair, and I bun it for a couple of weeks. I hate that bone straight look, and I worry about my ends more right after a relaxer.

But after those few weeks have passed and I've been able to wash and DC my hair a few times, I rollerset and wear it out more often.

My hairdresser rollersets my hair after a touch-up. Within a couple of days, it gets so flat though, and I am usually dying to wash it. Maybe this time I'll try spraying in some sort of water-based moisturizer (or maybe just plain ol' water) and re-roll it to give it some life until I wash it.

 

[Queen V]

My stylist blowdries and then flat-irons.

 

[Americka]

I blow dry, flat iron, and bump under with a large curling iron.

 

[pookaloo83]

I rollerset or just plain flatiron straight and pin curl.

 

[taz007]

I bun after a touch-up.

I usually bun after touch up as well. I do so for about the first 2 weeks.

 

[Barbie83]

A lot of buns (they look gorge just after a touch up) and rollersets. I usually wait to do a twistout until about 4 weeks post, because without some NG the result looks flat

 

[HAIRapy]

I usually get my touch ups done in a salon, so she curls my hair. I wear it that way (curly), but I clip it up a lot unless I'm going out for about 3-4 days then I go right back to my bun.

 

[CaramelPrincezz]

Since I self relax, I usually airdry and flat iron. I need to invest in a hood dryer so I can learn how to rollerset.

I just relaxed on Friday and I still haven't styled my hair. Thinking about just washing it again and flat ironing it tonight.

 

[beana]

I always rollerset

 

[HairGurl]

I flat iron with the the FHI and wear it down for the first 1 or 2 weeks depending on how i feel. I might wear it down longer than that....

 

[wannabelong]

I rollerset, then do saran wrap treatment after a touch-up.

 

[Lanea87]

Leaving the salon its rollerset and wrapped. And once that start going flat I will wash and curlform my hair. Then when NG hits its back to buns, wigs, and braids LOL

 

[bgsix]

Since I was lose hair when I self relax. My stylist blowdries and flatirons. I have the most bounciest and swanglicious hair when leaving the salon. You can't tell me nothin'.

[sunnieb]

At the salon - blowdry, flat iron, and my stylist knows how to do just a "hint" of a curl on my ends so I get to see my length. The next day, I go back to my buns.

 

[The Princess]

After my relaxer, i put it back up in a bun.
