...that one isn't supposed to wash their hair within 72 hours after getting relaxed?
I got my first Index 2 Tuesday; worked out Wednesday and Thursday. Didn't want to come to work and run errands today (Friday) with icky hair, so I co-washed with Suave Humectant.
My hair swelled, got wavy and curly; even after spraying it down with water and using a leave in, I wasn't able to wrap it--something I'm usually able to do with a fresh relaxer.
It actually dried straight, I was able to flat iron it but something seems amiss. Did I do anything wrong?
If so, is there anything I can do fix it? I plan on prepooing with Vatika oil, followed by KeraCare hydrating poo and Humecto tomorrow. Am I supposed to use Phyto products only?
