Do you apply a protein conditioner before your wash with a neutralizing shampoo? Do you wait a few days after the relaxer and then apply a protein conditioner?

I really need to know.

Thanks
 
I usually neutralize first and then apply a protein reconstructor right after and sit under the dry for about 15 minutes with a cap on. I follow with a moisturizing conditioner and then rinse out.
 
Thanks DSD and CurlyCurly. Do you use a heavy protein treatment like Aphogee or do you use a reconstructor like Nexxus Emergencee or Sebastian's?
 
I either use the apoghee two minute reconstructor or Motions CPR if I'm using a protein conditioner. Sometimes, I just use a regular conditioner (vo5, infusium, or elucence).
 
Thanx Curly

I'm curious too. Also what are the effects of your hair when conditioning before neutralizing?

I'm curious too. I've only tried this while I was using Motions. My overall Motions experience was a very negative one (severly underprocessed hair)so I can't say how effective the actual conditioning method was.
 
The last time I relaxed (last week), I didn't use neutralizing shampoo to neutralize. I used conditioner....Roux Porosity Control. The pH is less than the pH of of my neutralzing shampoo. My desire is to be completely shampooless and that's why I did it. My hair was softer and less dry than it normally is after neutralizing. I followed it up with a stronger than normal ACV rinse.
 
curlycurly that's an interesting method but I would be afraid to apply relaxers without using any shampoo. How is your hair coming along?
