2 days exactly.
You should wait atleast 2 to 3 weeks to get braids after having your hair chemically treated by a perm or relaxer.
You should wait at least 2 to 3 days. When you wash your hair, you are rubbing and scratching your scalp. If you immediately put a relaxer in, your scalp will start burning.
I tells you in the instructions for whatever relaxer you have, but I would say everybody's hair is different. I have thick strong hair, and I put in a regular strength relaxer every 2 months.
3-5 weeks
Your hair is very weak after braids. You only need to let the condition stay in your hair for about 4 to 5 days then after that get a relaxer. I don't recommend getting a relaxer right after braids. You need to give your hair time to strengthen because if you don't more of your hair will come out. Your hair will already be shedding. Take care of your hair.
Wait at least a week depending on the integrity of the hair. However you should color after the relaxer because it will strip the color out!
You should wait at least twelve days before shamapooing your hair after getting it relaxed or colored. If you have a relaxer, perm, or color trreatment you should wait at least two months before going swimming in a chlorine treated pool. If not you will experience a little breakage. After swimming, you wash your hair and condition it very well. Let the conditioner sit for at least 30 minutes.
you can wait or try a relaxer
because of the chemicals
You should really color your hair AFTER getting a relaxer because if you color then relax the color will fade. You should wait 2 weeks before you color your hair after getting a relaxer so I assume this means you have to wait 2 weeks before you relax after coloring. Next time stick with sem-permanent so your hair won't get as damaged. Dark and lovely is a good brand to use to color your hair after a relaxer. You can even do it on the same day it lasts thru 12 washes and I doubt you wash your hair everyday since its relaxed so if you wash every other day then it should last you about a month. If you wash once a week then it should last you 3 months not only that its also semi-permanent. It has NO peroxide & ammonia. You can get it at walmart in the ehitic hair isle. Hope I helped.
I recommend waiting 45 to 60 days. This is so you won't overlap the relaxer. Try using a lesser strength. Such as mild or regular and use a professional recommended relaxer. Apply vaseline and or hair grease to your scalp this time.
Just wash out the chemicals, you should be fine. Just don't go swimming after the relaxer because it is bad for your hair.
