I'm about 12 weeks post. I'll be stretching until the week before Christmas and relax at 15 weeks post at the salon. Stylist uses Mizani ButterBlends (Lye). This is the longest i'll have ever stretched.

9 weeks and 2 more weeks to go. I don't know how u ladies stretch for longer periods! My new growth is crazy after taking hair vitamins and using sulfur based products. Can't wait to have all one texture of hair and actually comb through it!

I am 9 weeks post. Last 2 times I have texlax. I used phyto index 1 because it does not relax my hair well so easy to texlax. It was real easy to see new growth with regular phyto index 2 relaxing bonestraight. Now my texlax hair looks like new growth so scared to do my next one. I started texlax to try to get thicker hair but not sure if this is the right route with a 4 inch puff ball around my head. Can I just go back over texlax hair? This is not working :-(

Self-relaxing with the half-n-half method has worked wonders for my hair.
Thanks LHCF!!

janeemat - Girl, I'm here and I post like there's no tomorrow!
There are more of us here than you think. Some are just shy. 
Napp - don't go to a salon that you know will mess you up. Now's the time to search for a new salon that will do your hair like YOU want them to.
Shelew - my gut says that it's okay to go over the previously texlaxed hair, but you need to be extremely careful. Check out some texlaxed threads to see what other ladies have done when they made the switch from texlaxed to bonelaxed.
10 weeks post planning to relax at 12 wks post. It seems that there are not many relaxed heads around anymore. We seem to be the lonely few

I'm about 6 weeks. And I will not be relaxing until I see at least and inch or more of NG all over. I don't use heat regularly so it feels like I'm already at 12 weeks. lol! Gonna do a co-wash and rollerset today and I may sit under the dryer for a while. I'm not in the mood to have wet hair all day.

As of tomorrow, I'll be exactly 11 weeks post relaxer. I went to my stylist Wednesday and she gave me a protein treatment using Dudley's DRC 28. That stuff is the truth!!!
She blowdried my roots and flat ironed my hair, and my hair is so straight, silky, and bouncy. I'm thinking about doing this every 4 weeks!! My 2012 goal is to relax 3 times per year.

My last relaxer was September 10. Been stretching using Wave Nouveau Moisturizing Lotion, Deep Condition and Dominican Blowouts~~roots only though. So far I'm looking good and going strong. I almost want to go natural at this point. In fact I'm due for a relaxer in and around Dec 19 and I might just get a Dominican Blowout and keep stretching.
I use Mizani Butter Blends
I self relax and love it. Don't have to worry about hearing "you need a trim with every relaxer".

I ordered the entire system from Amazon. I ordered the mild/color treated one and noticed it wasn't getting the job done so I went and bought just the medium relaxer from a BSS. I self lax and so far Butter Blends has never let me down. My hair feels nice n' full after each relaxer and the system smells really good.

How many weeks post relaxer are you right now?
10 days
When is your next touch up?
Who knows. I usually stretch between 14-18 weeks but since I have been taking vitamins regularly my hair is growing faster and thicker sooo I guess I will relax when i can no longer take it lol. Definitely not before 12 weeks though.
What relaxer will you use?
I used Optimum care last time and i really liked it so probably that.
Are you going to a salon or will you self-relax?
Self-relax... better known as Mom-relax lol
