How Long Can/Should You Relax After Washing?

[LocksOfLuV]

Hello, Ladies

Happy Turkey Day, I am sure your house is smelling really good right now. Umm pie and turkey! Unfort. for me I woke up worrying about my hair . Anyways I have a question:

How long do you recommend waiting to relax after washing? I am relaxing this Sunday and I am wondering if I should wash tonight so I can free some of the shedded hair (to prevent matting after relaxing) or should I go ahead and relax this weekend (it would be a week post wash)? Do you think four days is too soon to wash before relaxing?

What do you ladies do? What do you recommend for my situation? If I could wash tonight is there something I should do?

I think that you will be OK if you wash today and relax on Sunday. Just dont scratch too much before Sunday. I am speaking from experience....

I've washed the day before relaxing with no problems. As long as the hair is dry when I put on the relaxer, it's all good.
