when should I relax?

If I wash my hair tonight can I relax my hair Friday night or this that too soon?
TIA!

I think that would be a sufficient amount of time. It'll allow you to accumulate some scalp oil and give your scalp a rest before Friday. You could also wait longer, if you want, but I've relaxed my hair on that short of notice before, and nothing bad ever happened.

You should be fine as long as you don't scratch your scalp and also base your scalp as well.... Good Luck

Thank ladies. but now I'm so lazy i dont even feel like washing it.

so im guessing if i wash my hair tomorrow, relaxing it on friday is out of the question.

what's the minimum amount of tiem you should wait between your relaxer and the last wash?

72 hours is what I've been told.
