Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up???

Almost 11 weeks post (last relaxer was in October). Planning to go to 20 weeks (early March). We will see how it goes. However, this last roller set has my new growth so smooth. This might be the ticket for me.
 
I'm chopping off my bleached ends soon after a few months and then relaxing and starting fresh. I have been natural but not because I want to be but because I had to at the time. So excited to do research on relaxers!

@divachyk I'm doing great! Taking a break from Christmas stuff before cranking up again.

How are you? Is your dh doing ok?

@sunnieb I took a much needed break not too long ago. Life just got a little too much. Dh is doing good. His latest exam was scary == the dr believes what they seen was a false positive a month or so ago so we're back on that again. Gotta go back to the dr in 7 months to make sure all is well. It makes me sick to my stomach to think about it so I block it out of my mind. How's your dh?

@divachyk eek! I forgot to reply! Sending positive vibes your way and hoping that positive result was really and truly FALSE. Those Dr exams are the worst! Since I've been off, I went with dh to his last appointment and the results weren't scary, but not so good either. He's not to the point where he has to go back to the long term hospital, but we've got to make some changes (nutrition, overall health) to get back on track. And he's been lazy with his meds - that could account for the downturn in his bloodwork, :nono: So I'm back to being the medication 'B'. He rolls his eyes at me, but I don't care. :lol: Next appointment is in 2 weeks, so we should know more then.

On to hair stuff! I'm 7 weeks post and only did a cowash earlier this week. Plan to wash/dc today. ;)
 
Alright ladies, truth moment....I striving to meet 24 months post (I'm almost 19 months post right now). Once at the 24 month point, I will decide what I will do: relax or transition. I love relaxed hair but my hair is doing great things right now so the decision will be hard if this goodness continues.
