Hi there everyone! My name is Raquel,I'm 15 and I live in the beautiful island of Barbados. A friend from another board told me about the site and I've been lurking for about a month or so now, I finally need some questions answered
Thanx to all the advice I got from my friend my hair is healthy and doing well.I'm about 10 wks post relaxer, b4 then my hair was texturized. I guess I have 4a/b type hair and at the moment its just below my shoulder. That's not really its full length as in the past I had a problem with my mother texturizing/relaxing my hair, so I had to cut it then transition...that's all in the past though cause my hair is doin great and I learned my lesson
Anyways, here's my prob. I don't have trouble with my hair growing, but before there was sooo much I didn't know about haircare so i never retained any hair length. Right now at ten weeks I have a lot of new growth and surprisingly no severe breakage/shedding and I was planning to put off the touchup till the end of summer(last relaxer May25th), to do this first I was gonna get cornrows and then in August when we travel braids, but my mother isn't too keen on waiting so long. At lastest she probally thinks I should get it done in August. I really want to wait longer, but I don't want the wait to be for nothing if my hair suddenly starts breaking severely when I take the braids out. What do u guys think, am I biting off more than I can chew? Should I just try for longer next time?
I await your responses, any advice will be appreciated.
OH and P.s: I apologize for the extra long email!
