Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Partial Relaxer, Mold and style.

We relax the back and sides to reduce curl, then mold and style the hair for shape. Service includes consultation, protective treatments, precision application, and finishing techniques to ensure smoothness and cohesive overall look.

No, the service targets only the back and sides, preserving the natural texture on top. This creates contrast and volume, allowing styling flexibility while smoothing areas that are harder to manage. Discuss desired outcome during consultation.

Appointments typically last 60 to 90 minutes depending on hair length, density, and any additional treatments. We allocate time for consultation, application, processing, rinsing, molding, and finishing to ensure precise, healthy results.

Most clients return every 8–12 weeks for touch-ups to maintain smoothness and shape. Frequency varies with hair growth, texture, and styling preferences; your stylist will recommend a personalized schedule during follow-up.

We recommend a strand test for first-time relaxer clients to assess hair elasticity and resistance. It helps prevent over-processing and informs timing and product choice, ensuring safe, predictable outcomes overall.

Use gentle, sulfate-free shampoos, deep conditioners, and regular protein/moisture treatments. Avoid excessive heat for the first week, sleep on a satin pillowcase, and schedule recommended trims. Follow stylist's home-care plan to prolong results and maintain hair health.
