Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up
I am 7 weeks post this week. My braids will have been installed for 4 weeks by Saturday. Debating whether to keep them in until the end of August or mid-September.
I am still not sure if I am transitioning or stretching my relaxer. But I want to be a healthy NL before I even consider a touch up. Nothing is more depressing than getting your hair done and not seeing ANY growth.

Avocado mask? It reduces shedding, just found out its protein not moisture like some say, have to follow up with dc. Do you do a protein treatment before relaxing? If so that would be great so you can decide whether you want to still relax or not JudithO

Each stretch, I try to go the extra week. I'll stop if the co s start to outweigh the pros though.
Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together

Wishful thinking. I am 11 weeks post today and will relax in 2 more weeks which will make me 13 weeks post.

i'm 8 weeks post this week. my longest stretch this year because my hair is finally growing out.
i want to wait it out until the last week of August, which would put me at 10 weeks (longest stretch in a year). That's when I plan to take out my braids and deep condition my hair like nothing else.
I'm still wondering if it would be possible for me to stretch for 12 weeks. Relaxers 4 times a year would be nice.

I'm only 6 weeks post.
Back in the day I used to be crying out for a relaxer at this point. Look how far we've come.
I'm so early in my stretch relaxing isn't even a passing thought,
