Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up???

[destinyseeker]

15 weeks and although it's behaving, I have crazy new growth and it's looking like before I tame it.

 

[LushLox]

12 weeks post. I have a lot of NG but it's still manageable. I should be able to wait until December

 

[Rozlewis]

9 weeks post. Planning to stretch to 16 weeks and then relax the week of Christmas.

 

[Sosoothing]

16 weeks post.
I have no idea when I will relax. I'm still in braids.
I have just been feeling so lazy about relaxing.

 

[sunnieb]

8 weeks post today. Newgrowth is kicking in, but still manageable.

I'll go another 4 weeks and see how I'm feeling. As soon as my hair starts acting up, I'm slapping in the relaxer!

See, this right here is what I'm talking about! I'm not bringing out the whip anymore! The FIRST time my hair wants to act funny and not condition properly, I'm done!

@sunnieb Girl, I’m over long intentional stretches... I’ve just been too busy to self-perm
It’s washing and conditioning pretty easily. It’s just takes more effort to style because it’s so thick!
I’ve resorted to 2 - two strand twist with matching satin headbands (to hold those edges down) and I’ve actually gotten compliments, but it’s rough in these streets

9 weeks post today.

I'm starting to get that "relaxer stretching" look. Since I don't use heat, my edges are getting a little on the rough side. I'm sticking to ponytails and half up/half down styles for the time being.

At this rate, I'll be relaxing in 2-3 weeks depending on my schedule.

Guys, add if the relaxers are lye or no lye.

I am in the market for a no lye relaxer that doesn't cost an arm and leg.

Go for it. I relaxed at 7 weeks this last time but it was more of a corrective move since the last retouch left me severely under processed

Me too! A good Relaxer day doesn't take less than 4 hours for me.

Y'all guess what?

I found my other activator

I just bought a new relaxer for nothing. I knew I had I just couldn't find it.
