Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up
2 weeks post and I'm not sure when my next touchup will be.
I did (well stylist) do a virgin relaxer. We both were more concerned with the length of the hair and didn't want to risk overprocessing, so in some spots near the scalp didn't really get as straight. I thought I might get a corrective at about 6-8 weeks and then go about every 3-4 months after that, but I might just wait go ahead and wait it all, esp since I still like to cowash and I'm loving braidouts. In the last 2 weeks, yesterday was the first time I actually straightened my hair.
the relaxer used was Affirm Fiberguard for senstive scalp
I used to be a self-relaxer, but since I go so infrequently and since I found someone who cares about healthy hair and listens to me (and is my cousin, so I feel extra okay about telling her what I like) and since I plan to go so infrequently, I don't plan on self-relaxing this go round, at least not for a while.
