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

5weeks, Saturday. I usually go 6 weeks but I have a 5k next week and wanted my new growth tamed. LOL

How many weeks post relaxer are you right now? 10 weeks 6 days

When is your next touch up? Who knows maybe in August for school, well thats the plan at least. Or maybe in 5 weeks it depends on how my hair is acting.

What relaxer will you use? Going back to old trusty Design Essential

Are you going to a salon or will you self-relax? Back to the salon

I relaxed Tuesday at 13 wks post. I ended my 20-24 post goal...too much stress on my relaxed hair.

I will stick with the 13-15 wk post mark.

I'm currently 3 days post relaxer :grin:!

You and me both PinkPebbles. I cannot do the 20 + weeks post anymore. My hair even though texlaxed, still suffers from demarcation breakage. This is my third time around and I am NOT having that:nono:.

I am currently 2 weeks and 5 days post and will be stretching for about 14 weeks.

12 weeks today and relaxing on June 2, around 23 weeks post. I braid my hair w/o extensions and cornrowns my hair about every 2-4 weeks so that way it is easier for me to stay out of my hair and just moisturize my hair

Well I'm now 15 weeks post. I may not last till June. But I'm trying really hard to.

12 weeks post. Holding strong for 3 more weeks!
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I am 13 weeks post and I will be relaxing in a little over 1 week. I normally relax at 12 weeks, but have been sick and on antibiotics from a sinus infection. I stopped all medication on Sunday.

I am paranoid about relaxing while having medication in my system. I think a week should be enough time for me to relax safely.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

3.5 weeks post and will be texlaxing even straighter than the last one next round in about 2.5 more weeks.

I will not stretch too long this time around but I intend to stretch for the next round to about 11-12 weeks.

I don't think I will be stretching longer than this for a while but I will definitely be playing it by air.

1 week post, 11 to go:grin:
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

5.5 weeks, not relaxing again til after finals, so I’ll try to make it to 12.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I'm 2 days post relaxer. Relaxed after a 15 wk stretch. I plan to stretch again for another 15 wks, relaxing on or around 7/26/12
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

1 day post relaxer.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

@Divachyk and Nix08 Yes, I'm with you ladies. I think my calendar has our week to relax around June 30th.

I'm mad at myself for trimming my hair so much lately but it will grow back:(
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I'm 0 days post. :lol: I just relaxed at 10 weeks post, early for me, but quite underprocessed from last time, so it seemed like double the new growth. I had to knock it out.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

divachyk It feels better. My problem now is I can't keep my hands out of it. I probably need to trim a little more off b/c I feel it snagging but I'm staying away from the scissors until next month
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

17weeks and some days. Will be 18 weeks on Friday.


I guess I'm pushing it to 20 weeks since I'm being lazy. Looks like this may be a 2 relaxer year for me (I haven't relaxed at all this year so far....).
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

11 weeks post.. 5 weeks to go :)
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I dont know because I am very underprocessed. All I do know is that Im going to attack my hair with a blowdryer and flat iron tomorrow. I tried with the bantu knots and such but my NG wont let any styles be great.
 
2weeks and next relaxer maybe 6 weeks later because I think my usually ten my hair gets too coarse and I lose progress
 
I relaxed on Tuesday so as of today I am 5 days post... It feels weird not to have a mountain of new growth on my head but I considering as a starting over point to learn from any mistakes I may have made in my first stretch ever (48 months) I plan to relax at 15 weeks
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

13 weeks post today. Trying to hold out for 2 more weeks!
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

How many weeks post relaxer are you right now? 3 days shy of 7 weeks

When is your next touch up? 10 weeks post

What relaxer will you use? Not sure...but I need to find out what my Stylist has been using?

Are you going to a salon or will you self-relax? To a salon but I admire the whole "do it yourself and taking charge of your hair!"

I will be asking my Stylist to texlax my hair.
