19 weeks and so far I'm loving it. Wednesday is my Birthday + flat iron length check.
 
I'm 44 weeks post texlax touch-up - on my way to 104 weeks. I plan to transition w/o BC-ing for 2 years! :drunk: :spinning: :yep:
 
16 weeks post... until the last of my relaxer is gone! Long journey! Won't do a length check until September or October. Plan on weaving it in two weeks for the rest of the summer!:yep:
 
19 weeks post tomorrow...3 more weeks to go
 
15 weeks post...still in braids. Not quite sure what I want to do. I'm in between relaxing 2-3 times a year or just doing a long transition. My hair is APL so I'm thinking it will take 2+ years for me to transition without a BC. Any advice?
 
Checking in...currently 40 weeks post...transitioning with patience!
 
almost 14 wks. gotta relax, going to alabama at end of week and once heat and humidity hits this head.. it'll be a wrap!
 
I am 12 weeks post. I have at least 4 weeks to go, since I always stretch until at least 16 weeks post. This time around, I want to stretch until 24 weeks post. I stretch to avoid damage from overlapping and to minimize my exposure to chemicals.
 
8 weeks post. Up until 3 months ago, I relaxed at 4 weeks religiously, so I'm taking it day by day. Daily co-washes and WNGs are saving me.

I plan to go as long as I can.
 
I just passed 16 week mark, on my way to 17...trying to make it to 25 weeks. So far, its going pretty good!
 
28 weeks and going stong. I will make it to 52 weeks :yep:
 
i'm only 3 weeks post and my ng is already causing shrinkage.

is that normal?!
 
I will be a full 10 weeks tomorrow......i have a question i never thought of asking.....when do you declare yourself the next week post?

Like i'm 10 weeks tomorrow...but can i say 11 weeks the day after that??
 
^^^ good question! b/c that would make me 13 weeks!
 
2 weeks post this Saturday. I think this relaxer stretch will be for my normal 16 weeks, but I'm playing it by ear. If I can stretch longer I will, I got a lot of progress from my 20 week stretch.

Currently 5 weeks post, shooting for 12 weeks
Is that too high of a goal for a first-time stretcher?
 
I'm 2 weeks post. I'm a first time stretcher and my goal is 12 weeks. Just looked at the calendar to see how far away that is sheesh. I got a long way to go lol
