Need Help...I really do!

[lana]

Well I need help ladies. I'm in love with my hair, but not today! My last texlax was about six weeks ago and it didn't really take! My hair laughed at it, because I must have missed too much conditioner, oil and not enough chemicals to get it straighter. I ended up WAY underTEXLAXED. Now six weeks later I have 1 inch of new growth and 1 inch above that that isn't all the way texlaxed. Help!

What should I do?

Should I texlax early? (I usually wait to 12-15 weeks)

Cause lately I've been using way more heat than I want to. Today I had to drag out the dreaded pressing comb--electric--but still! I haven't had to do that in months. Help! I don't want to lose my progress. My hair is growing well. Will I damage it by texlaxing next week? Or should I try to stick it out?

Oh and by the way my bf -oops I mean Fiancee - told me to ask you guys for help. He was like "Ask your girls on the hair board, they'll know the answer."

Hey...

I have been in the same predicament before. I waited 6 weeks before I decided to correct it (there should be a corrective thread if you want more info). Make sure to use a protein conditioner before you do it.

If you are having to do a lot to make it easy to style, I would apply the relaxer for another 5 mins (don't forget to use chi silk infusion) now and count down another 12-15 weeks after that for the next touch up.

Hope that helps.
