My last relaxer was 1 November 2008. I went to a JC Penney Salon yesterday and I must say I'm very impressed with the results! I felt so badly when the stylist was relaxing my hair because with that much NG it's definitely a task. I had about 5 months of new growth and she no longer had the Affirm relaxer she always used. So, she used Mizani Rhelaxer (Normal). From what I've heard from my mom and others, Mizani is strong (my first time using it btw). She was able to get the back straight, but my crown and the front was a problem. She ended up rinsing the back and then continuing to work the front of my hair. She was actually sweating, constantly wiping her forehead. She even had someone turn fans on. In total, relaxer was on my head for approximately 45 min but there really wasn't any burning; she based (with Affirm Gentle Assurance) excellently and so far everything is good. My hair and normal relaxers usually disagree with each other but I'm very grateful she used it and worked my hair rather than diving straight for the Super without even knowing how my hair would react.

Stretching is definitely a keeper =D

After my breakage post I took some advice and started DC more. The breakage problem was just about fixed
