Answer 8

it does not matter how long you wait once the highlights are in they are permanent. old school used to say not to wash your hair for several days after a permanent, but not so now. just make sure you don't over condition as that can also dry the hair alot of conditioners have drying agents in them. good luck and have fun with it.

Answer 9

I wait 4 days just to be sure and it was recommended by my beautician to wait at least 4 days. Same with a perm..Also condition as your hair can dry out and tangle . If you can't wait then I would say do it when you feel the NEED to.

2-3 days at the max

Answer 11

a few days, but it shouldn't really matter.
