...to my 16wk post relaxer day, , I've never stretched this long before, and this is really good for over all hair health, I didn't know I had so much NG so I had to correct a few areas. I usually go no less than 8wks and atleast by wk 10-12. I will continue to relax every 16wks, and so will my daughter, no more 8wk touch-ups for us. My hair feels really good no thin ends, thank God, I used Organics by Africas Best IMO its good for children or pple who would like to texturized because the regular strength processes slow for me, i had it in for like 32 min and it still didn't process some areas to well so I washed it out, neutralized, conditioned w/ the hair mayonaise as suggested and did a DC w/Capilo Sole & Cinnamin. I took a morning nap and when I woke up I corrected the underprocessed areas w/my last bit of TCB bone straight, , so happy I didn't throw it out. It never went wrong for me but wanted to try something that offered more of the natural goodies in it. I think I will continue to use my TCB, as they say "if it ain't broke why fix it". This was the first time in my entire life of having underprocessed hair, , so I won't be using that again for that reason, plus it left my hair looking drier than my already relaxed hair, , TCB has never done that neither. I also used the entire jar, noone said being 16 wks post relaxer would cause you to need a whole relaxer, LOL, I'm so happy I didn't purchase the touch-up only kit. I gained 2-2 1/2 inches, and I retained everything, w/no breakage during rinsing or when I combed through the conditioner. So my hair has strengthened, and has gotten much fuller. I really would like to try Vitale, but I don't know. Well now I will break out the Maxiglide, Yes it is time to treat my self to some bouncy swinging straight hair, which I only use heat 3x's a year, after a relaxer to enjoy my new length for like only 3 days, then back to rollersets, and pin-curls.
