How Long Should I Wait

[MissPriss08]

Hi All.I am at the end of my 12 week stretch. It's time for a touch up but I just got a color rinse (temporary) last week. How long should I wait before relaxing? Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,

I think you should relax if you need it, but be forewarned that your rinse may "come out" when the relaxer is rinsed out. This happened to me before. I put a black rinse in my hair and when my hairdresser saw it, she hated it. When she rinsed my relaxer out, she was like, "Thank God that stuff is out of your hair", lol. Don't forget to post pics.

Thanks for your response, NS. So you do not think the combo of relaxer and color will cause my hair to break off? Thanks again.

I think it'll be fine. A rinse isnt strong at all, like permanent or semi-permanent color.... if you feel more comfortable tho, you can wait up to a week.
