[Saida]

What do you get done first? relax your hair of get it highlighted, ive heard that its really hard on your hair if you relxax it first?

I've never higlighted before, but I think the consensus is to do the relaxer first. The relaxer is the harsher chemical, so you actually do less damage by doing it first.

THe only time I was able to get highlights and a perm at the same time without damaging my hair was when I used gueye's N'gone relaxer, it's milder and cause less damage.
