I just realized that I havent had a relaxer in 10 weeks..
My last one was May 4th...
I was sittin here thinking my last one was May 26th
Im proud of myself cuz Im handlin it well.. about a yr ago, I was relaxing ev 8 weeks like clockwork.. no matter the growth..
I had a similar moment last week when I realized "Wait I'm 13 weeks post, wow time is flying". I have no inkling to relax yet either (mind you I'm weaved up, but the front of my hair is out and it is the hardest to deal with sometimes).
I was relaxing even more often than you a year and half ago (every 5-6 weeks).
Give yourself a big pat on the back The problem I'm having now is with the edges - they are 5zzz nappy while everything else is manageable. Next relaxer 9/12.
I was about to break down this weekend , I bought a relaxer and everything and decided to try a bun, and using the KOSBDML and the Kemi Oyl and Glaze.. Its Uber Manageable ..
Wait I thought that stretching was less about length of time and more about length of new growth. Why did you stop growth aids if you still had plenty of newgrowth to help avoid overlapping? Was it just coming too quickly to deal with?
