Every 20 weeks or so. I usually wear it in a braid out for the first 3 months or so then bun it for another month and then flexirods with a scarf over my new growth.

5 months low to no manipulation the last 3 months

 

[seashell]

I relax every 10-12 weeks.
I airdry in a ponytail or braidout.

 

[MonPetite]

I relaxed every 8-10 weeks when I was bone straight and texlaxed. If I relax again I'll probably stick with that. I never used heat while relaxed and had no problems.

 

[ebonimama]

12 weeks is the longest I can go without lots of shedding. I find that 8 weeks is optimal for me because I experience no shedding at 8 weeks.

 

[ladylina]

I relaxed 10-14 depends on the time of year. I usually wear braidouts untill I get tired of detangling my hair.

 

[missvi]

I relax every 6 months.

What I am SHOCKED about is the fact that ~StillALady~ is the only one that asked Bublin' why she needed to know. It was the first thing that came to my mind. So Bublin' out wit it. What's going on? Are you considering relaxing/telaxing/texturizing/smacking the crack down?

Anywhere from 9 weeks on...... If I am stretching my touch-ups I will relax at 11-12 weeks.
