Update: this is week 34 for me. In trying to make it a year but I feel like once a year comes up I'll continue to stretch anyway. I'm liking the growth that has come out of it and my hair seems to be liking the break from relaxers. This is also my first stretch so it's kinda touch and go but so far I've had no problems!

@ojemba; it was supposed to be last week, but something's come up. I'm hoping for two weeks from now...but who knows. I'm sooo bored with my hair and I am ready to shake things up with a relaxer. **Sigh**

Going on 77 weeks

I'll be 11 weeks this weekend, and have to stretch to 14 weeks for a variety of reasons. I'm a little nervous about it since my longest stretch was 15 weeks this summer and it didn't go so well.

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

I'm 11 weeks and usually relax at 12 weeks but have discovered that my hair loves cowashes and gel on the edges to keep the NG in check for my buns are working wonderfully. The NG laying down is so pretty until I just can't relax right now. I'm going to go for another few weeks and see how things go. Getting a few angry tangles that I can finger detangle without too much trouble. But if this increases I will relax.
btw, someone is 77 weeks, that's a transition not a stretch. That's amazing!
