Let her follow with the conditioner and leave it for 3 minutes. 3. She will wash out the conditioner and follow with Leave in Conditioner and setting lotion. 4. She will roller set your hair 5. When the hair is out of the rollers, she will apply your hair growth oil on your scalp and your hair oil on the hair itself. I prefer using the oil on the hair during the setting of the rollers. (It is able to infuse into the hair as it dries). That's it for the relaxed hair wash.
