To wash your hair? This Sunday will be a week since my touch up and I may go another week without a wash because I just hate loosing that new relaxer feel. The night I wash it and it dries it just doesn't feel the same. I want to enjoy it as long as I can.
I always wash my hair once a week regardless of when I got a touch-up, and the week after my touch up I always do my hardcore protein treatment, due to the hair being just relaxed. This will help to thicken it up and make it more durable!

I'm addicted to washing my hair. It's sooooo hard for me to get in the shower and not AT LEAST wet it. Whether freshly relaxed or not, I can't go more than 3 days without rinsing, washing, deep conditioning, co-washing--SOMETHING!
I just relaxed on Monday and I washed it again on Wednesday. I was itching to do it on Tuesday, but I figured I'd let myself enjoy my relaxed hair for a day
Funny this should be a new post bc I was just wondering the same thing,but with a different angle. SO....I remember folks saying (b4 LHCF) not to wash until a wk after a relaxer so it will last longer. I had a relaxer at the beginning of this month and really stuck to my hair schedule and co-washed everyday or every other day. In addition, I was serious about my MN application. I had new growth a week and a half after my relaxer! Now, I want to contribute it to my MN and taking care of my hair. However, something in me keeps wondering if that old wives tale rings true. Sorry for the long post. Any ideas???

I usually wait 2 or 3 days after. I get my relaxer done at the salon, so the first time I wash it, for my peace of mind, I like to use a neutralizing shampoo. This is just to make sure all of the relaxer is out/gone. Then I like to do some type of deep conditioning either with moisture or protein or both. My hair seems to need this pretty soon after relaxing so I don't like to wait more than 3 days post relaxer.
