Usually it is best to wait at least 14 days. Relaxing the hair is such a harsh chemical reaction that the hair is easily damaged. Waiting 14 days will help prevent breakage. It is also important to do a strand test each and every time you use a relaxer or a hair color, as Allergies can literally develop overnight. Typically do the strand test 2 days in advance to ensure that you aren't going to have immediate symptoms such as respiratory difficulty or symptoms over time such as a rash. Some hair colors and relaxers will vary. Check the insert that comes with home kits or check online for the product information that you plan on using.

Is it okay to color hair then relax?

Not if it is permanent. If you are using semipermanent it would be ok but you really dont want to use harsh chemicals after harsh chemicals and you deff dont want to bleach your hair right after you do a relaxer. Your hair will fall off if you do that. I have seen plenty of customers almost in tears because they tried to do this on theirselves at home and wanted me to fix it. Try not to process your hair too much. Make sure to use deep conditioning treatments after harsh chemical services.
