OP do you self-relax? When you apply the relaxer do you start at the nape? I had this same problem and I didn't realize that the hair in the back is actually a finer texture than the crown. Maybe going forward you can give your hair less processing time to help curb the breakage. I only touch up in the back every other relaxer. I now texturize my fine hair and touch up in the back every other relaxer.

Are you sure that the relaxer is being rinsed out properly? Many women get breakage from the nape because it's the hardest area to rinse out because it often sits on the shampoo bowl. When my nape fell out it was because of that.
