Honey A you are almost there!!! I vote you wait another 4 weeks!!! Congrats!!!
I'm 16 weeks post and its actually going well. I'm going to relax sometime this week. I'm moisturizing with Kids Organic Detangling Shea Butter Moisturizing Lotion and wearing braidouts and updos.
Great job! I hope that I can hold out that long.Checking in. I relaxed last weekend after a 6 month stretch. I'm not relaxing again until December. Six months works for me. I was beginning to experience some breakage and wanted to avoid that at all cost. I did a rollset that came out pretty well but I don't know how to upload the pics to my post so I just changed my avi. LOL

I'm doing well so far without weaves, wigs or braids and I plan to keep it that way.

Beautiful! It is so much thicker. did you relax it yourself? That is a lot of hair. Was 15 wks your longest stretch?
