Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Derrizado(Alisado) (Relaxer).

Results are permanent on the treated hair shaft and remain until new hair grows; typically clients touch up new growth every 8–12 weeks depending on hair growth and desired straightness. Maintenance varies by texture, chemical history, and aftercare.

When applied and neutralized by our trained stylists with proper strand testing, relaxers minimize damage. Pre-existing chemical treatments, porosity, and home care affect outcomes; we recommend consultations, protein/moisture treatments, and follow-up care to preserve strength and elasticity.

Appointments usually take 1.5–3 hours depending on length, density, and processing time. Consultations and strand tests may add time to ensure safe application, accurate timing, and personalized product selection for optimal results.

Coloring can be done before or after a relaxer but timing matters. We recommend a consultation: typically color should be applied at least two weeks before or after to reduce overlap and minimize chemical stress.

Use sulfate-free, moisturizing shampoos, deep-condition weekly, and avoid heat for 48 hours. Protect hair with protein treatments, regular trims, and gentle detangling. Follow our stylist's personalized routine to maintain smoothness and hair health between visits.

Relaxers are best for medium to coarse, tightly curled textures; fine or chemically compromised hair may require alternative treatments. We always perform consultations and strand tests to recommend the safest option and tailor the formula to your specific hair needs.
