Four weeks! And I for once in my life am taking time to look at the NG... I don't think ill need a touchup anytime soon... slow growth.... seems less than my goal of 1/2 an inch...

What I am noticing is that the edges of my hair are growing really slow. I'll be 13 weeks post on Friday. My edges don't look close to being long enough for a relaxer. Everywhere else on my head is a forest.
 
You guys are putting me to shame. I feel like i accomplished nothing when i look at your numbers on here. I'm currently 8 weeks post. Aiming for at least 22 weeks post. We will see how long I will last. I want to keep up with the big league
 
I'm exactly 7 weeks today...I usually relax every 8 weeks but I'm trying to stretch to 12.....If i make it without going crazy I will continue to push for 18 weeks...
 
34 weeks post and counting. Been back and forth on the transitioning/relaxing fence. :lol: I feel stuck because this is the longest I've ever gone without a relaxer, and I miss my rollersets, but I'm going to be ticked to have to start back from scratch after all this time lol :lol:
 
55 weeks or almost 14 mos, and transitioning. Been getting the itch to relax lately, so I put my hair away, and it is beginning to subside. I am so surprised I've made it this far. :drunk: Going for at least a 2.5-3 yr transition before all processed ends are gone.

0 weeks 3 days post.. I love freshly relaxed hair.. ended my 10 week stretch a lil early.. the long term stretching is not for me.. Will stretch from 9 to 10 weeks going forward..
 
14 weeks post. I was planning to relax on October 8, and straighten my hair for my birthday, but I might just flat iron and see how long I can stretch.
 
As of now, 0.3 weeks :lol: I just ended a 35 week stretch. I was afraid of having more ng to relax than I could handle; but it was really easy. So I am aiming for at least that long this next round as well :yep:
 
13 weeks post as of today:drunk:

I was initially going for 4 months but i am contemplating whether or not i should relax tomorrow because i cant even comb through this new growth and i have never stretched without doing a sew in, but so far pin curling every night is really hiding the newgrowth!!
