Re: Relaxed Hair THREAD!!
I'm suppose to relax next wk @12wk post, but the PX ran out of ORS relaxer.
I refuse to use Soft n Beautiful or the Pink relaxer so I guess I might as well stretch a lil longer. *le sigh*

Re: Relaxed Hair THREAD!!
Hey! so here is where all the relaxed heads are... lol.
I was wondering if we had been run out of here (semi-kidding)
My next relaxer is June 18 (about 11 weeks post) ,I'll do a protein treatment this week, my grays are popping so I don't know whether to dye my hair today or wait until the week after my relaxer :/

Toy - I'll be 14 weeks post when I relax on June 24. I'm doing pretty good with this stretch. I had problems last time and I learned from that. I can NOT go too long without dc'ing or at least cowashing. My newgrowth is so dry and dense, I have to keep my moisture level up and not get lazy.
I can get away with so much right after a fresh relaxer. I can't wait. Hang in there! You got this!

Just relaxed after a 7 month stretch and I love my hair. Just got a trim too and she cut LESS than what I thought I might need. I have not had a trim since November so I was ready for .5 to 1 inch and it was nothing compared to that! She also gave me the U shape I wanted with slight layers!

*yawns*
I'm on my way to the salon now to get my hair done. I think I want a dry cut and then a rollerset.
Meh...I just need to see how much she trims before I get back on my grind...

Re: Relaxed Hair THREAD!!
My stretch went really well this time, I could have gone longer. I think once I hit APL I will start pushing my relaxers to every 4 months instead of every 3.
That might get difficult because from Sept through Dec I get 2 inches of NG.

Re: Relaxed Hair THREAD!!
I wont be getting a trim at the salon this go round, I am thinking of going in for a professional trim every other relaxer and using my splitender the other times.
This way I will make my goals faster.

Like someone else said a good DC is key also DONOT comb your NG all the time.
Hi ladies, relazed head here!
I'm kind of new to the site and I usually just lurk around so sorry if this question is simple. I'm about to be 21 and JUST started caring about my hair. I read on this site that a lot of you "stretch" your relaxers for weeks and even months at a time. I don't know my hair type but it is reallyyyyy thick and unmanageable in its natural state. My question is how do you all stretch for so long when the NG starts growing in. Sometimes I can't even pass a comb through my hair without breakage.

Re: Relaxed Hair THREAD!!
I'm 10 wks post and do to relax July 1. I'm not having trouble at all. Last year I relaxed every 4 months and this year I'm doing every 3 months. I haven't seen any benefits to stretching my relaxer; however I have only been relaxed for two years and I jumped right in with stretching for at least four months. I did buy the SE with Shea Butter in Regular this time because I don't feel the Mild was strong enough for me and I think I want to go straighter.

Re: Relaxed Hair THREAD!!
7 weeks post relaxer and I am co washing and deep conditioning to get some tame on my new growth. I am going to the salon to get my roots blown out on Monday. That saves me an extra week on my stretch. I am also trying to use up my stash before buying new stuff.. Can some one refer me to a post with protective styles for SL length hair. I'm in desperate need
thanxx

Relaxing and getting a trim next weekend!!! Accidentally stretched for 3 months. Excited!
How soon after do u think I can use a lil bit of bleach? Three weeks maybe? I wanted to put a few small streaks of bleach in my hair to prepare for a henna treatment, as opposed to getting highlights. Thoughts?

Re: Relaxed Hair THREAD!!
1 week post relaxer.
Still holding onto the rollerset, and I plan on making some cute updo/bun styles for this last week.
I'm excited to do my hair while freshly done
