Freshly Relaxed Hair Do's & Don't | Everything You Should/Shouldn't Do After Relaxer | Niara Alexis

[@dinri90]

I just finished getting my hair professionally relaxed my hair like about 3hours 😂 ago after being natural for 17 years. Thank God I found your channel.

[@NiaraAlexis]

You got this!

[@tenza7556]

I don't think ppl realize how much trauma we inflict on our hair daily. Treatment n moisture is absolutely necessary. Thanks for sharing...your hair is living proof that your advice is solid☺️

[@NiaraAlexis]

❤️❤️❤️

[@0tismadaline]

Well said dear,immediate protective style after freshly relax is a no no👌

[@NiaraAlexis]

Exactly!!

[@uoxoudollTV]

Talking about how the sunlight can damage your hair even further with frequent exposure is very true and it can actually break down the bonds of your hair! So I’m really glad you mentioned it because not a lot of people will and especially on relaxed hair it’s good to protect it.

[@NiaraAlexis]

Yes! My hair used to be so fried every summer until I figured it out

[@uoxoudollTV]

@@NiaraAlexis me too, omg, it literally took the color straight out of my hair after a week in Florida😂

[@NA-sv6so]

Okay honesty! Love it! Talking about the sun, sew in and sensitivity?? Yes! Thank YOU Keeping these tips for 2 weeks from now!

[@NiaraAlexis]

you're welcome!

[@quirkyblackgirlshow]

I’ve been natural since I was 16 and I’m 26 and about to relax my hair again. I’m so nervous but this was helpful

[@paradoxavakin3420]

Same I chopped my relaxed hair off at 16 and i wanna relax it again at 21

[@ElizabethObuks]

So happy i found your channel.. I'm about to relax my hair for the first time in 8+ years. I'm nervous but very excited 😊

[@NiaraAlexis]

You got this!

[@thewritergrl]

Fantastic advice! Your hair looks bouncy and healthy! I trim every time I relax at the salon

[@brendarodriguez1150]

The sun damage makes so much sense. I could not figure out why the crown of my head so much breakage. Thank you!!!

[@NiaraAlexis]

You’re welcome ❤️

[@scrubz.n.squatz2495]

I’ve never experienced breakage at my crown maybe because there’s so much humidity in New Orleans .

[@wiloshebymetilie]

Thank you for the tip… I was thinking of retouching my hair and do sew in, now I know how long I should wait

[@lindafloralmeida6114]

Been watching all videos as I’m growing my hair out, so I can then relax it. Love the videos!!!

[@NiaraAlexis]

Glad you like them!

[@scrubz.n.squatz2495]

I use to get me a fresh relaxer wait a week then get my sew in with leave out. I never got breakage, not even on my nape and temple area. I think it depends on who is doing your hair and how their grip is.

[@joiaturner2310]

Great advice! Especially the sun exposure in the summer. Ever since I started watching your videos I make sure I do a treatment every week. My hair is thriving. (headed to get my trim next week) ❤ Have a great weekend!

[@NiaraAlexis]

Yay! You’re a kitchen beautician now 💃🏾

[@Sunkissednoe]

Love your videos hun, love from Jamaica❤

[@NiaraAlexis]

Yas! I’ve always wanted to visit! ❤️

[@Sunkissednoe]

@@NiaraAlexis you should!!! Summer is Coming up girlll!!

[@swisdom9117]

Thnx for this. I’m going to start putting JBCO on my hair and scalp a day before washing it. Idk why I’ve never thought of doing that before now. I want my hair to become more full

[@debracausey7375]

Thank you and it all was very helpful. Love watching your videos keep them coming 😊

[@NiaraAlexis]

Thank you! Will do!

[@500deanna]

I love your hair cut! Is there a way you can show us how it was cut?

[@NiaraAlexis]

There isn’t a specific way I’m sorry! I just trim my ends regularly

[@MAGAISKLAN]

Her hair cut look a lot like the Italian bob! Since she trims on her own looks like it naturally developed into a bob! She’s got a lot of length so it makes her bob look really full and just amazing.

[@sandrae4470]

Great advice 👌🏾 Your tips are on point. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@NiaraAlexis]

You are so welcome

[@takilove3566]

Thank you , I can’t see the Dustin clipping video ?

[@NiaraAlexis]

It’s up! Check my channel for it

[@OlamideAwe-jg1xn]

Thanks for the tips! I've been hearing a lot about trimming the ends of your hair and I don't really get it. I know I'm supposed to cut split ends but I can't really see my hair. Care to explain more on the length I'm to trim out?

[@NiaraAlexis]

i have a video on how to trim ends that explains more

[@lesley_lezley]

Thank you ❤

[@NiaraAlexis]

You're welcome 😊

[@tasnimibrahim1547]

Thx for sharing this was definitely helpful but what treatments? Like hair masks-?

[@NiaraAlexis]

Yes any type of treatment

[@cocoajanelle]

I’m newly relaxed after years of being natural and your videos are so helpful. Thank you! I know you mentioned you mentioned you dust your ends after every wash but sometimes I’ll see a scraggly split end and just cut it there and then. Do you think that’s bad / am I overdoing the dustings? Or does that seem ok?

[@NiaraAlexis]

No I do the same! You’re better than me though I just pull at it which can make it worse 😩

[@cocoajanelle]

@@NiaraAlexis ok I wasn’t sure if I was doing too much lol thank you!

[@Lovely-ff7uv]

​@@cocoajanelle Dusting is a game changer. I do it every wash. But every 6 weeks is ok too. I hate crunchy ends/tips

[@naturalme923]

Wow your hair is amazing. I just got a relaxer today, but i can smell the burn in my hair...the hairdresser in the salon used a lot of heat and also got burns from a relaxer. I am so worried. What treatment can i do before post relaxer wash day?

[@NiaraAlexis]

There are a few I recommend but my favorite is then Pantene rescue shots

[@naturalme923]

@@NiaraAlexis Thank you so much❤

[@isobel64]

Your hair is lovely!

[@NiaraAlexis]

Thank you ❤️

[@AntonetteShay]

Chyleeeee yes! I agree and I don’t think any protective styling should be done after any type of chemical treatment. Anytime I’ve seen someone do that I could clearly tell their hair was falling off the bone. All that for whatttt lol 😂

[@NiaraAlexis]

Exactly!

[@clarissabrown9192]

how soon after relaxing do you wash ?

[@NiaraAlexis]

I wash my hair once a week when I’m wearing it out

[@nancyobi3437]

OMG are you a girly that gets relaxers living in Chicago? I’d love to know where you go to get your hair maintenance!! Thanks for the video!

[@NiaraAlexis]

I do all my own maintenance ❤️

[@swisdom9117]

1:31 never considered this before. Trust me, he sun here in Jamaica is HOT 🥵 but I always carry my umbrella. Idc who thinks it’s weird but I gotta protect my skin and hair . Btw how do you get your hair to be so voluminous? I love the volume in mine because it has some texture, but it still looks a bit flat to me . Not to say it’s over processed or damaged (it’s actually rlly healthy) but I just want some more volume

[@darlenehill3614]

Hi beautiful! I’m trying to locate your video where you’re talking about the hot oil treatment?! I know you have one!

[@swadidgafchartonbai8151]

Hey could you recommend a stylist that safely and evenly relaxes hair?! In illinois or in Iowa?.

[@NiaraAlexis]

I don’t know any stylists there

[@purplelove3666]

Ok,you are giving me formal super model, Jazmine ghauri

[@ecinor5399]

Can i get tapes after my relaxer 🫢😊

[@NiaraAlexis]

I personally wouldn’t. Anything applying tension to to fresh relaxed hair is a recipe for disaster if you ask me

[@Lovely-ff7uv]

No heavy pomades, gels or edge control. Got 2b got to go

[@NiaraAlexis]

😂

[@audreybailey1515]

Trimming is ESSENTIAL!!!!!!👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾

[@corinajean-baptiste9040]

When we saw split end we need to cut iiiiiittt😎😎😎🙌👌cut it cut it💇‍♀️💇‍♀️Thx for those tips

[@NiaraAlexis]

You’re welcome 😊

[@Legacychaser_777]

Is your hair layered?

[@NiaraAlexis]

Unintentionally yes lol

[@sadiefrazier9314]

Been natural since 2012 and i live and i know how to take care of my natural hair but im thinking about going back to relax hair simply because im a mother and alot of natural heads with full thick hair has become so tired for me
