I know this has probably been posted before but I did a search and didn't come up with anything. I probably just didnt type in the right phrase. Anyway. What do you all do like 1-2 weeks before you relax your hair? Do you condition with a protein treatment before and then after? and do you put a protein conditioner after you rinse the relaxer and before the neutralizing shampoo??

I suggest using a deep conditioner on your hair. Make sure the hair is properly trimmed and any dead ends are cut off.

[/ QUOTE ] Well I tried it and I like it and will use this again and again. My hair has a fuller and thicker feeling. This product prepared my hair for my touch up.
 
I'm glad that you tried the QP product and liked it. I think I'm going to purchase this and give it a try on next week when I touch up my sister's hair. Thanks for the review...

Right before. Just as the directions say. Make sure you don't scratch/disturb the scalp. As soon as you are dry proceed with basing your scalp/hairline. Apply relaxer, color or which ever chemical application you where thinking about. I will use this every time I have a touch up. It has protein. the relaxer destroys/rearranges the protein of the hair. So why not have it here while the hair shaft is open?
