If not used properly yes. Perm is a caustic chemical that curls the hair and relaxers straightens the hair. There is a certain amount of time each should be left on, then should be immediately rinsed and shampooed out. Normally with a perm you shampoo and rinse the hair first and with a relaxer you apply it to dry hair and new growth only, then shampoo with a neutralizer and rinse. You also may need to repeat the shampoo process more than once to make sure everything is removed and for your hair to take the new straight or curly shape, this process is called rebonding.

If applied properly your hair should be in optimum condition.
