how often should i give my hair a protein treatment?

Answer 1

Depends on the texture, porousity, and whether or not it has been chemically treated. I have a relaxer, I use Soft Sheen's Hiprotech reconstructor every week and a half, then I use a deep moisturizing conditioner to balance moisture and strength...cause too much of one or the other can cause hair breakage.

Answer 2

You don't want to over do it with protein treatments as this it will just create a build up on your hair.

On normal hair you should only use a protein treatment about once every other week (twice per month).

If you are using the protein treatments after coloring, lightening, or relaxing your hair, you should use the treatment two times per week for two weeks, then once per week for two weeks after that, then after that only once every other week.

If at any point your hair starts to feel like the treatments are just building up on your hair, stop using for at least two weeks then treat again twice per month.

Hope that helps! =)

Protein treatments should be used with caution. To much protein buildup on your hair will cause a lot of breakage.

This is something you should discuss with your stylist.
