Tip 1 for Hair Relaxer/Hair Straightener Hair Health:
Wash your hair as infrequently as possible to minimize breakage and maintain natural oils. For women of color, or those with dryness-prone coarse or curly hair, skipping a day or two between washes can help hair retain its moisture. Determining how often to wash your hair takes trial and error—you may wash less frequently if your hair doesn’t get oily quickly, or more to combat product buildup.
Some women can wash their hair several times a week, while others can wait two weeks. Curly or African American hair tends to be more porous, fragile and dry than straight hair, so avoid products with sulfates. Try co-washing your hair, or washing it only with conditioner to help maintain moisture. To avoid breakage, comb your curls with a wide-tooth comb in the shower. If you use hair relaxer or hair straightener products, treat your hair to deep conditioning treatments at least once a month. Read More
