I started using olaplex this past December 2017. I used it weekly and with relaxer touch ups by February I noticed that my relaxer was not taking and even seemed to be removed. I then tried to apply a corrective relaxer. The first time it helped but, my hair wasn't back to normal. Four weeks later I applied an additional corrective relaxer after a protein treatment. Still not back to normal. Currently I feel like nearly all of my relaxer has been removed all over. I noticed breakage and started steam and moisturize. My hair is softer now, but still not drying smooth when I wrap set. My hair is bra strap length. I'm not sure if some of this is because my hair is too long to wrap set. I really want my relaxed hair back. I am concerned that when it starts to get humid I will look like a hot mess. Anyone else having this experience ?
Is there a reason why you were using it weekly? Was your hair breaking before you started using it weekly? Wouldn't using it with the relaxer alone be enough?
My hair was damaged from excessive demi permanent coloring and that was why I bought something to help me during times when I color my hair. I probably wouldn't use it so often.
I'm transitioning from texlaxed to natural so I have not had this experience. Sorry I couldn't help more but I believe that just slowing down on it's usage would have been enough. Once a month would have sufficed.
Also did you continue with your regular treatments even while using the Olaplex, ie, protein/moisturizing as needed? You may need to simply stop using it except during your actual relaxer application only.
