Results are permanent for treated hair fibers; however new hair growth retains natural texture. Most clients require touch-ups every 8 to 12 weeks to manage roots and maintain uniform smoothness. Frequency varies with hair growth rate, texture, and desired appearance.

When applied by experienced stylists using clinical formulas and proper processing times, damage is minimized. Pre-treatment consultations, strand testing, and post-treatment bonding and moisturizing treatments help protect hair. Overprocessing or at-home misuse increases risk, so professional service is recommended.

Come with clean, dry hair free of heavy product buildup. Avoid chemical services like coloring within two weeks. Bring a list of previous treatments and medications. Your stylist will perform a consultation and strand test to tailor strength and processing time.

Use sulfate-free shampoos and nourishing conditioners, plus weekly deep-conditioning or bond-repair treatments. Limit heat styling and always use heat protectant. Schedule trims every 8 to 12 weeks and follow stylist recommendations for touch-ups and at-home products to preserve strength and smoothness.

Yes, but timing is important. Wait at least two weeks before coloring and consult your stylist for compatibility. Bonding treatments or Olaplex-style services can be combined safely when planned, minimizing stress and ensuring even results.

Relaxers are formulated for different textures; our stylists assess porosity, density, and previous chemical history to determine suitability. Some fine or severely damaged hair may require alternatives. We recommend an in-salon consultation and strand test before proceeding.
