Five Things You Should Avoid Doing With Relaxed Hair

Five Things You Should Avoid Doing With Relaxed Hair.

Natural hair has been the focus of all the attention for a while. How to grow it, how to maintain it, and so on. Let’s talk about relaxed hair.

You need to understand how to care for your relaxed hair. Because it doesn’t matter what texture or treatment, your relaxed hair requires the same care as natural hair.

These are five things you shouldn’t do if you want to make the most out of your relaxed hair.

1. Never relax your hair yourself

Do not attempt to do the retouching yourself. You can avoid damage to your hair by going to a salon, even if you’re a professional hairdresser. The use of relaxers can cause hair damage and require attention. Relaxers applied to your hair alone can cause permanent damage as you don’t know what is happening.

2. Do not use too much heat to your relaxed hair

Your hair is already relaxed so it doesn’t need heat. Your hair is already relaxed enough that the chemicals have made it less prone to heat. Use low heat if you absolutely must heat your hair.

3. Do not use permanent hair color that is too heavy

Deep shades of permanent color can quickly damage hair if it is already relaxed. You should limit the color to one or two shades darker than your natural hair color. Any darker than that will cause hair to break and put unnecessary strain.

4. Do not touch your hair after relaxing

This myth is true. Do not rub your scalp before you use shampoo or relax your hair. You will be more likely to get burnt. Instead, massage your scalp when it starts to itch.

5. Do not let your hair get too relaxed soon after you have done the last one

Do you notice that your hair does not grow despite all the new hair growth? It could be that you have relaxed your hair too quickly. You should wait for your hair to grow out about 12-14 days before you touch it again. Regular retouching won’t damage your hair’s strength.
