I really want to stretch 12 weeks but I'm on my 8th week and it's gettin hard to get a comb through. I usually get a relaxer every 8 weeks so I could definitely justify a relaxer right now but I have more nw in areas than others. I guess I want a nice amount of ng all over. What do you think? What do you do?

Hey Mocha5, I am also trying to stretch to 12 wks. I am now on week 8 with 2 inches of newgrowth(an inch and a half in other areas) It is getting really really difficult to comb my hair...so I'm thinking that I will just go ahead and relax tomorrow. I would say an atleast an inch all over is a good amount of newgrowth. My newgrowth is so thick though that I would be doing more damage by not relaxing. I keep hearing snap,crackle,pop when I try to comb my hair(no breakage though) and trying not to comb it is really impossible. If you can handle your newgrowth I would say hold out on a relaxer, but if you can't then I would just go ahead and relax to avoid unnecessary breakage at the demarcation line

LOL, Niikkipoo, I'm hearing that same snap, crackle thing. And I'm like "oooh!" LOL. It actually kinda hurts too. Unfortunately, I just realized that Week 8 for me is actually the 14th so I still have a week. So are you texlaxing?
