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 am 12 weeks, I will be giving myself a touch up sometime this month with Linanage Relaxer. First time I am using it. I really hope I like it.

Do you add oil to the Linange Relaxer? I will be self relaxing for the first time later this month and don't want my hair bone straight either. I was wondering if you got your results by adding some type of oil or using it as is.

I have been hearing soo many great things about the Linange relaxer. Where did you purchase yours from? I dont think I've ever seen it in stores.

I order mine on sleek hair.com. I haven't seen it in stores either.

Amcd, no, I don't add anything to it. It just seems to leave some texture to my hair for some reason (plus some parts of my hair are downright resistant).

Currently 2 weeks post and counting with 10-12 more weeks to go. My last touch-up was at 14 weeks post - the longest I've ever gone :)
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

Three weeks post. Will do a corrective in two weeks b/c my last relaxer left me too underprocessed.

3 weeks and 2 days post. i was thinking of not stretching and just going for the usual 8 weeks, but if and when i get braids, i want to have enough new growth to get them. so ?

also, i am not doing any dusting until my next relaxer or before i get braids. i dust my hair way too much and i am not seeing progress like i should.

1 day post - previous relaxer was May 2012

ORS super

Next touch up December (will stretch longer with weave or wig)

I had to search this thread to find out last time I relaxed....I guess it is time for a touch up soon.

16 weeks relaxing on tuesday wetting my hair on wednesday and comparing it to the other wet texlaxed hair results.

I'm proud of myself I went from 9 weeks to 16 weeks with almost no issues. That means I can stretch longer now. :)

KhandiB looking good girl!

It's going pretty well for me. This Saturday will make it 7 weeks for me. I will go my usual 9 weeks. I'm thinking of doing a spiral rod set this weekend for the first time....I'm feeling festive!

Loving - That sounds fun!!! I think Im going to end trying a twist out for the holidays I think.

I will probably clip my ends soon, that is the one part that Im not happy with.

I did find a wonderful conditioner, SE Megasilk Olive Oil Moisturizing Treatment, its on sale at Sally's this month for $6.99... Made my airdry work :)

53 weeks :lol:

I'm not relaxing until I'm able to confidently self relax. My former stylist would do more damage than she should have so I stopped going to her. :naughty:
Most of my previously relaxed hair has broken off so I'm basically starting over...unless I decide to be natural. :rolleyes:
 
10 weeks post, will be 11 on Thursday. Think my next relaxer will be anywhere between 19-23 weeks, depends on when I get tired of the sew-in I'm getting installed at 15 weeks post.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

24 weeks and not sure why....
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

January 1st will make it nine months. I think I'm going to texlax next week since I'm going to be off.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I am 15 weeks post! Yep my crazy self has gone pass 12 weeks again knowing the nightmare that I had in June losing sooooooooo much hair.:nono: I have been sick for one with a cold/sinus infection. I have also gotten some tendonitis in my wrist which is causing me problems. So with all of that going on I am praying and I mean really praying that I can just hold out until Jan 4th or 5th. Then I am going to relax, cut several inches, stop long crazy stretches, BUN FOR A YEAR :yep: and start this hair journey all over again while enjoying my hair....that's my plan:yep:. Pray for me ladies. But I will say that things are going much better this stretch than before because of some changes that I made.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

4 weeks post. I was severely under processed last time and I'm thinking I will correct in two more weeks.

I just found your previous post about long stretches yesterday and it freaked me out a little since I'm coming up on six months and my hair is also fine. What did you change to make your stretch less damaging this time?
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

I am 11 weeks post, trying to see if I can make it to 16 weeks, but most likely i will be touching up next week at 12 weeks post :look:
