9 weeks post today and going strong. I'm shocked my hair hasn't gone on strike yet. I'm used to relaxers every 6-7 weeks, but no more of that for me.


Time to TRANSITION!!!!!!

 

[FocusLady]

12 wks post today. Relax next Friday. Going the use the last of my Silk Elements with Shea Butter in Mild. Then I'm switching to regular because mild isn't strong enough. I have one weak side; which is the right. It's thinner and doesn't look as good when styled as the left side. It does its own thing and I hate it. You can see that it's thinner then the left side also. :-(

12 weeks into a 16 week stretch. Last stretch I tried for 12 weeks and only made it to 9, but this stretch seems so much easier that I'm even contemplating taking it to 24 weeks. That would be a new record for me, the longest I've ever stretched was 16 weeks.

15 weeks and 1 day...going pretty strong now that I've gotten my regimen fairly tight!

 

[MrsHdrLe]

!6 weeks. I texlax only about 7-10 minutes (max, so lightly) and there's not much difference between my new growth and the rest. I have some straight ends in the crown and front I'm slowly cutting out. I am really on the fence about texlaxing again at all. I even bought the relaxer, but otice I get more and more nervous each time I approach the day to apply (I DIY). I think I'm afraid I'll mess up one day, so I think I'll hold out until I decide whether I want to just go on a transition, so TBC.....

37 weeks post. So far so good. I'm just trying to deal with the humidity which causes my hair to frizz up.

The last time I relaxed was October 30, 2009.
I am 34 weeks post, that's 8 months and 2 weeks. I will be 9 months which is 36 weeks on July 10, 2010.
I have 18 more weeks to go until my 1 year transtion. This is the longest that I have ever not permed my hair in my whole life. I really would like to go for another 2 years, and do not BC at all. By then I should be MBL. I only want to search and destroy when I have to.
The way I have been transtioning is by wearing my hair in circular cornrows under my synthetic wig. The first thing I did was get rid of all the relaxer in the house, and instead of picking up a new relaxer I just pick up more DC's or either by something expensive, like OCT so that way I wouldn't have the money to think about a relaxer. When I want to see my hair straight, I will take down my cornrows and clearify, then protein treat, then DC for moisture, then roller-set, then maybe just blow dry the roots or just flat iron the roots and then just wrap. That is what I have been doing like every 2 to 3 months, since I started the transtion.
I just started DCing over night, every night since Friday June 26, 2010 and I am loving it. I will do this for the rest of my 18 weeks because, to me the longer into your transtion the more moisture you need.
