Hello Ladies!!
I currently have a sew in weave that I recieved on 12/18/10 (6 wks ago). I have been on a long term stretch and this wknd will be week 16 that I have been relaxer free. My goal is not to go natural, but it just didnt make sense to relax hair that was gonna be braided up for a sew-in.
Im taking out my sew-in this wknd and Im nervous about the shed hair and potential breakage from a 16 week stretch.
My regimen has consisted of:
1. Do the relaxed ladies that stretch regularly in sew-ins have any products/conditioner recommendations that will allow for better NG manageability and minimize breakage/shedding?
2. Did you have a positive experience stretching your relaxers under a sew-in and did you retain most of your length?
3. Whats the longest that you ever stretched under your weave without getting massive breakage and setbacks?
TIA!

My regimen has consisted of:- Wash and DC every other wk (mix of aphogee and other products I was trying to use up)
- moisturize every 1-2 days with 14-1 Hawaaian Silky
- oil scalp with a MN, rosemary oil, EVOO, Castor oil mixture
