Schwarzkopf SMOOTH ‘N SHINE shares a few pointers to help you master relaxed hair.

DOs and DON’Ts:

  • DO relax your hair every six weeks.
  • DON’T relax over processed hair. Wait for re-growth.
  • Always go for a treatment every two weeks.
  • DO keep your relaxed hair moisturised and nourished to help strengthen it and prevent breakage.
  • For those with thin or weak hair, DO get a protein hair treatment – it will repair and rebuild your hair.
  • DO base your scalp at least twice or three times a week with hair food.
  • Always take care of your hair when wearing braids or a weave. Apply hair food to your scalp regularly.
