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

I am 8 weeks post.
I'm going to see how long I can go without breakage. Usually I have lots of shedding and breakage. This time I mixed vegetable glycerin, water, avj, olive oil, infusium 23 and a little V05 moisture milk. My new growth is pliable and vibrant in color.
When I relax I'll use Design essentials regular.

I'll be 11 wks post this Sunday. I was going to relax then but the hurricane set me back and I don't want to resort to the salon for my relaxer to be on schedule. So, God willing, should I have a chunk of my living situation situated, I will relax at 12 weeks.

I am 9 weeks post today. So far, no hair drama:grin:

HI bebezazueta - I am still new to the forum and just say this message. I do not have a relaxer buddy yet but I would love to have one. Do you have one yet?
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I went to 15 weeks and now I've hidden my hair in a weave. When I take the weave out in February, I'll put it in again. I think I may do another 18month stretch before relaxing my hair again.
 
Three weeks post and going to relax at ten weeks, I can't not wait because the back of my head is underprocessed because my "help" didn't smooth the relaxer so my front is stay rather straight and back is so thick, I can't wait to correct this

Then you must have seen some progress than....
 
Fourteen weeks post- trying to wait until Christmas week to relax.

Coping ok with the regrowth- just trying to keep detangled and moisturised at all times.

On no or low heat styling until I retouch.
 
Only 7 weeks post but I'm so happy! This is the longest I have ever gone. I'm shooting for 12 weeks. I plan to wear a wig after week 8. :)
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

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

I'm 5 weeks post. Hoping to ignore the urge to relax before Christmas (that'd only be 10 weeks - I normally go 12) and stretch even further to MLK weekend which will be 14 weeks!

We'll see if I can make that though - this time around my middle is growing like weeks will my edges are chillin looking like a fresh perm :-(
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I'm about 6 weeks. My last relaxer didn't really "take" (I think I was in the midst of protein overload) so it looks like I'm 9 or 10 weeks post. The Aubrey conditioners and Roux PC have seriously brought down the shedding which is usually a huge problem when I try to stretch, so I'm hoping to co-wash daily and bun until our Christmas party mid December and then relax. The urge to do the corrective is STRONG though... so I don't know.

23 weeks post. My new growth is insane. I've decided to relax in 3 weeks -- right before I head home to visit family for the holidays.
