One common mistake many women make when relaxing their hair is not removing the chemicals from their tresses properly. Letting such harsh elements remain in and on your locks could result in damage. After chemically treating your hair you must neutralize it to stop the process from continuing.

It is very important to remove all of the relaxer from your locks to avoid causing hair breakage. Pay special attention to the neck and nape areas. How often should you wait to perform your next perm treatment? Unless you have a shorter hair length you should wait between 6-12 weeks before receiving your next relaxer.
