Hey ladies I'm back (I guess my subscription didn't automatically renew like it said it would)

Any who I'm sitting under the dryer as we speak with a freshly relaxed head...thank you Jesus. 13 weeks was a challenge

Can't wait to see the finished product. She gave me a trim but it wasn't anything major so hopefully ill still see some growth (fingers crossed) :-)

i just did a roller set and it was a fail. my hair was taking forever to dry and i wasn't allowed to get under the dryer. i had to step out the house and just didn't feel like walking around in rollers. usually i don't care, but today was different.

i may try to do a twistout. my hair feels really soft. it has a lot of wave to it from the rollers.

I hate when that happens...well at least you had soft pretty waves to show off. I would do a roller set but my strands would shed to pieces this late in a stretch. I'm working on getting braids by a young girl who does my sister's braids.

my twist out came out so nice and soft! we have a winner for my go to summer style, since i can bun. my mom just came by and said i need more volume. but my hair is super straight and i made flat twists, so there won't be any volume going on at the crown. i have a nice wavy beach look. i like it..

YAY, I'm glad you found another go to style!! I can never commit to a style for long, I think my max is 4 days, lol!

my hair would take some time to dry too! i did them on dry hair. i just added some moisturizer and oil to seal. since i will be rocking this style until next wash day, hopefully i have a pic for you ladies. i ordered a new phone today. i paid for it to be shipped overnight, but i didn't see the fine print that said they don't do deliveries on the weekend...smh... the phone i have now won't let me do anything. i feel so lost and not of this world. i can't check messages, i can't text, i can't dial certain numbers, etc... i got it wet with conditioner and my son puked all over it.

Girl that phone has been over, under and through it, lol! Hopefully we can get to see pics of your style.

My subscription was shut off too because I no longer have the debit card I have on file. Thirteen weeks is pretty good...wasn't this your longest stretch to date??

Exactly...I damn near break my neck as I leave away the shampoo bowl trying to see my new length. I be all calm and cool as a walk over to the mirror saying, "oh yeah it grew some" like its no big deal, lol! I'm usually running red lights and speeding home just so that I can play in my hair. I know I ain't the only one who does this.

I'm right here waiting these 6 more weeks until I can relax again. Things are going well. mschristine I have been peeping you in the relaxed hair thread. I am also obsessed with checking for the bulb. klsjackson did you get your corrective?
Click to expand...

Hey buddies!!! I've been super busy with school and work stuff, but I'm hanging on. No, I did not get my corrective. But I did go to the salon. I have not been to the salon in almost a year!!! I had forgotten how much I missed it. My stylist did an assessment of my hair, told me it was in good shape. I asked if I needed a trim and she said no. I couldn't believe it. I did ask her to shape it and give me layers, which she did and I was able to maintain my length. She relaxed my new growth and told me the underprocessed areas were not as bad as I thought and she would correct them during the next relaxer.

I am very pleased with the results and don't ever plan on doing another self relaxing session if I don't have to. I need to take some pics, but I've gotten several compliments on my hair. She even gave me some tips and suggestions on how to continue to maintain my hair at home.

My sub was shut off too and they had the right number. I even received an email earlier telling me that it would automatically renew if I didn't opt out. It didn't. I contacted them and they said they no longer auto renew even if you want it. Kinda dumb if you ask me to put your paying and willing-to-pay customers through that.

Looking good!!! Altruisticoam have you established a length goal for the year?? Have you met your goal already? If not, when do you think you'll reach it??

What about the rest of us?

My goal is to be BSL by December of this year. I believe I'm about 2-2.5" inches away so I might need every bit of this year to accomplish that. I have hair anorexia a lot; some days I see it and other days I feel like I'm 5" away from BSL. I am seriously considering texlaxing.

I had some very lofty goals for this year but now I've gotten a grip and have come back to earth. I'm shooting for a full (no pulling one strand-:) ) BSL by Dec 31. If I can keep to my current schedule of only two more relaxers this year and prevent setbacks I can do it. I am definitely texlaxing...I bought the Linange Texturizer and I can't wait to use it.

Is this your first texlax? When my flat ironed hair touches the top of my bra I'm claiming it.
