With me its a combination of things...
Protective Styles involving your own hair - ponytails, buns
Stopped using heat - only once a month if even thta
Transitioned from relaxer to natural - its been 2 yrs
Stopped trimming - haven't trimmed in almost 1 yr
I have no idea if I have reached APL yet. I haven't flatironed in over a month and even then the heat made my hair shrink up.
Don't let the stylist trim! That was my downfall when I used to relax my hair. I hate scissor happy people. Good luck! You can do it!
