You only should shampoo your hair after you get it chemically relaxed only when you need to NOT EVERYDAY.....They are alot like a perm in a way ... when you get a perm or a hair relaxer the hair compounds switch and chance so you want to keep them switched as long as you can... I would say a deep conditioner like one every three weeks to help it look shiny and sleek....A scalp treatment are great on those that have gotten a hair relaxer they are cheap at most Solon's ...you should be able to style your hair how ever you would like but just remember not to but a lot of products in unless you are wanting to shampoo it alot...

I use Luster's Pink oil Moisturizing Lotion to my relax hair. People of color should only shampoo their hair every 8 - 12 days. Over shampooing causes our hair to loose it's natural oils, and since you added a relaxer that also causes the hair to dry out. Apply a hair dressing to your hair at least two times a week. For a shampoo and conditioner I use Creme of Nature adds moisture to relax hair.

Wash your hair every other day to every three days, deep condition weekly, and use a moisturizing shampoo. Use Garnier products... they are great. Gel, use one without alcohol because it damages the hair.

Wash your hair at least once a week. Deep condition once a month w/ a rich moisturizing conditioner.

I would not wash your hair everyday. Try once every 3 days.
Also use the TIGI "S" factor line. They ahve smooting shampoo, serious conditioner, and flat iron glossy spray. It calms the hair down.
