Reducing your relaxer stretch time

[HairQueen]

Hi all,

I have looked a hot mess for the past year and a half in the name of looking after my hair. It has really paid off stretching my relaxers for 12 weeks but I am now fed up! I want to look hot all the time not a hot mess!!

When you reach your goals will you go back to relaxing more often? I want to reduce my stretch from 12 to 8 weeks, do u think this will ruin all my hard work?

I have had long hair in the past with relaxing every 8 weeks, but it was thin and didn't have much body. So no, I don't think that I will go back to relaxing every 8 weeks again, but I might cut my strech time down to 10 weeks verses the 12 weeks I try do do now.

That's what I'm worried about having thin hair as it is now nice and thick. Maybe I will try 10 weeks this time and see.

well i'm sad cuz i have too much growth to safely go on to 12 weeks. next week will be 8, maybe 8 the least 9 if i'm lucky and 10 will be a miracle!!!

Thats just it for me too, too much growth at 12 weeks I look a mess after week 10! This time I will try relaxing at 10 weeks and see how it goes.
