How is it going ParisianCoconut

Pretty good but I must say that it is only due to my 24/7 wet buns .

Since I don't use direct heat and don't want to airdry because of my thick roots, I just cowash every morning, put some homemade pudding on it to sleek them edges and I'm good to go.

I also use a spray of hibiscus tea + glycerin + jojoba and grapeseed oils during the day to keep my hair moisturized and tame the poofiness I got sometimes.

So far, so good. I got minimal breakage with this method and my hair seems to be happy doing is own life without me styling it or playing in it all day long

I'm 13 weeks post today and plan to stretch another 4-7 weeks. I would love to achieve a 5 month stretch and plan to achieve that by wearing my hair in 4 Celie braids underneath a wig.

Thank you.
To be honest I was suppose to relax at 16 weeks then I was too busy and forgot about it.

I wear wigs monday to friday for work, underneath the wig I M&S daily, wear flat twists and mostly DC every week. Oh and I'm really patient when detangling.
I hope this helps.

I am 16 weeks and I'm aiming to stretch until 6 months (I guess 24 weeks), which would put me out to mid-end of September. It seems so far away. I made it through my last stretch with a lot of wigs but it is so hot in Florida right now, I just don't want to wear wigs day in and day out.

Me too I never thought I'd be a stretcher

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

alittle more than 1 week post. Self-relaxing was so much easier at 12/13 weeks post than when I go longer.

 

[pre_medicalrulz]

I think im coming up on week 16....although it does not feel like it. If so, i have 4 weeks to go.

 

[Saludable84]

1 week. When I scratch I feel scalp. Find me in 5 weeks when I'm searching my scalp again...

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together

My flexi rod set looked so great yesterday! I loved the look of it and Boyfriend said I looked beautiful! It was so easy to do that I may make it a regular hairstyle! I didn't sleep with a satin pillowcase last night, and I wore my hair out all day today in the heat, so I'm treating my hair to a light protein DC overnight.
