I am a couple of days shy of 9 weeks and I am so READY to relax this hair!
 
I'm a little over 3 weeks. My NG is making it's appearance. I'm going for 12. It should be easy now that the humidity is here.
: )
 
I'll be 8 months post on Saturday. I don't know how long I will go, but I want to go for 1 year this is the longest that I have strecthed my relaxer. I am loving the curls and avoiding the declamation line by wearing wigs with cornrows undereth. I was always wearing a slik scarf at night, now I will start bagging again. And sleeping with a du-rag over the plastic and a slik pillow case. I am taking my vitamin and will be spraying my hair as needed. I use Mizani mosturizer but, it's expensive so I will go back to ORS olive oil.
 
I am 7 weeks post. I plan on transitioning to natural, so no more relaxers for me!
 
13 weeks this Saturday. I know I will be relaxing, just don't know when yet. Just gonna kinda keep going until it's unmanageable. I typically do 12 week stretches at a time, so my NG isn't problematic for me right now at all.

I am 10 weeks post, hoping to stretch for five more.
 
It will be 14 weeks this Saturday.

Since my hair will be braided up for the summer, I don't think I will be relaxing until late August/early September.
 
14 weeks and still counting. I planned on getting a relaxer at 20 weeks post but I think I'm going to see how long I can go.

So far I haven't experience any breakage. I DC twice a week and bun. I also fell in love with a new hair toy, hair/chop sticks.
 
Only 3.5 :yep: weeks! I started working out and changed my diet about the same time as my last relaxer and my ng looks like I'm about 6-8 weeks...or maybe it's the beginning of a growth spurt? Either way, I'm getting a little nervous about doing my normal 16 week stretch...not sure what I'll be working with by the time August rolls around :rolleyes:.
 
Tomorrow makes 18 weeks! The longest I have stretched in my journey. Im torn because my NG is giving me a run for my money but I love seeing my natural hair. I think Im gonna wait til week 20 and then relax.
 
This saturday will be 9 weeks post on my way to my standard 13weeks. :yay:
 
50!!!!!! :blush::blush::grin:

Neverrrrr thought I'd be able to make it this far and honestly have no idea what I'm going to do once I hit my one year goal...:perplexed
