BKTing to Stretch Relaxers

[Lovelylocs]

I hate stretching because my hair sheds like crazy when I do. And no matter what, I can't stretch past 10 weeks without breakage.

However, I would like to see if I can just BKT in between relaxers and get relaxers maybe like 3 times a year.

Has anyone had good results with this?

I would not recommend if you have hair that is not healthy. 2 processes may be asking for trouble. JMHO.

I'm doing this. I intend to relax every twelve weeks and BKT every twelve weeks (so I either BKT or relax every six weeks). I haven't done this before but I know the BKT takes better on processed hair and I had good results with it as a natural.

A friend who is not big on hair health grew her hair to BSL doing this- but she relaxed and BKT-ed on the same day (I wouldn't)
