Expect a 2.5 to 4 hour appointment depending on hair density and length. Consultation, application, processing, restorative treatment, and styling are included. Your stylist will provide a personalized time estimate when you book.

We assess each client's color history and hair integrity before proceeding. If color is recent or hair shows damage, we may recommend conditioning treatments or separate scheduling to protect hair and achieve the best restorative outcome.

Relaxer effects on treated strands are permanent, but new growth remains natural. With proper maintenance and trims, the strengthened, smooth finish can last several months; touch-ups and deep-conditioning every 8–12 weeks help preserve results.

Use sulfate-free, moisturizing shampoos and protein-balanced conditioners. Avoid heat styling for a week, apply weekly deep-conditioning treatments, and use heat protectant when styling. Follow your stylist's home-care plan to maintain strength and smoothness.

Generally we separate chemical services to protect hair integrity. Depending on goals and hair condition, we may recommend coloring before the relaxer or scheduling color after recovery. Your stylist will advise the safest sequence during consultation.

Arrive with dry, unstyled hair free of heavy oils or product and bring details of past chemical services. Plan for a multi-hour visit, eat beforehand, and allow ample time so we can deliver a thorough, restorative result.
