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

9 weeks, guess I won't relax until I decide on a relaxer.
 
7 weeks. I'm trying to go for 11-12 weeks and relax sometime after 8/21. Only thing is that's going to be a very hectic time since I'm relocating around that time and I don't know if I'll find time

1 week post. I'm stretching until the week of Thanksgiving which will put me at 18 weeks post. Longest stretch for me..
 
5 weeks and 5 days post, minimum stretch will be 12 weeks (first week of September) but I may try to shoot for 18 so that the next TU isn't until January 2013.
 
I am 6 weeks 3 days post. Wana hold out with my relaxer buddy but idk if I will make 11 or 12 weeks. I dont mind it if my newgrowth is soft and agreeable. No breakage though!!

22 weeks and 3 days. I am not sure when I'm going to relax. I said September, right now I am not sure if I'm relaxing again.

I'm at about 10 weeks post texlax. My hair seems like it's ready for a touch up. But I'm not. Sometimes I like this thick, almost natural hair....I tend to consider going natural and trying BKT or some other Keratin method of keeping the hair straight. But the thing is, I don't really want to wear my hair curly. So a texlax works for me.

I will probably touch up my roots in 3-4 weeks.

I don't know when my next touch up is! I'm slapping some extensions on and will make a decision in 8 weeks
I use Mizani Butter Blends Rhelaxer for sensitive scalp
I definitely go to the salon. I just don't think it's safe for me to do my own relaxer.

I stopped relaxing myself in 2007. Now I only go to my stylist. I don't have time for all of that. I'd rather sit and wait on someone else to do it.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I am 15 weeks post today with 1 more week to go before I go to the salon and relax!!
 
How are you guys keeping the new growth soft/moisturized?

I use qp elasta lotion but the crown always seems to be never moisturized enough.

Also, are you combing the new growth? I find myself just combing from ear length to end of hair bc I'm too lazy to deal with the intensity of the ng.
