how soon after relaxing do you see new growth?

[Lilmama1011]

when does you new growth start coming in?

 

[LovelyRo]

About week 3.

 

[ckisland]

I started seeing new growth at week 3 too!! I'll be 4 weeks tomorrow, and my edges!!!!!! I'm really surprised it's this noticeable already!

 

[pre_medicalrulz]

I only start paying close attention around 8 weeks. I dont remember whats going on before then. Lol

 

[MzOptimistic]

2 to 3 weeks. This last time. I did my touch up bone straight which I did not mean too and within 2 weeks my new growth was wavy. I was talking to my co worker about it. I was showing her and saying "you see this shhh"...she's growing her hair also

 

[Lucie]

Two to three weeks.

I never notice until it gets thick and disorderly and that happens around week 7.

 

[Ms. Tiki]

I'm with divachyk. When it starts acting up, that's when I notice it. However, my hair starts showing out around week 5

 

[Saludable84]

3-4 weeks, but it usually doesn't "BAZINGA" until week 8.

This is me. I noticed this time around new growth is screaming for relaxer

[sounbeweavable]

2 weeks, but sometimes 1 week at my crown because it grows the fastest.

 

[cynd]

Usually around 5-6 weeks but sometimes a little later.

 

[tenderheaded]

I relax and color. My "skunk spot" in the front starts showing at week 2. Misbehaving doesn't start until week 7-8.

 

[koolkittychick]

Mine comes in at 2 weeks. At 3 weeks I have to switch to primarily finger combing my hair to style it.

 

[Lymegreen]

I start noticing it around week 6

 

[SCarolinaGirl]

I notice at about 3-4 weeks.

 

[PureSilver]

2-3 weeks is all my hair needs to start acting up. It also depends on what products and methods i'm using. Now i'm at 7 weeks and i have to go get me some Porosity Control today. The NG is soft but i can hardly manage.

 

[PinkSunshine77]

For me, about 3 weeks - 1 month.

 

[longhairdreaming]

About 3 weeks but then I just noticed it with this relaxer.

2-weeks. I think the tighter the curl pattern, the quicker you "see" the newgrowth. My curl diameter is about 1/8 inch, so I could feel full coils popping through in 2-weeks. See this post on "Worlds Tiniest Curl": http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=630359&highlight=tiniest . Ladies with a bigger curls/waves patterns will feel them much later since a "full" curl will not manifest itself for at least 4-6 weeks!

virtuenow I was wondering if that could be why I felt my new growth so soon. Thanks for the info.

That makes sense. I have very tight coils and I can feel new growth as early as 2-3 weeks sometimes.

It's been a minute since my last touch up, but the norm was around week 4 or 5...
