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

I will be 8 weeks post on Sat too Jobwright

I have more NG than usual (yay!!) but it seems too early for me. I really don't feel like styling it and Im supposed to be avoiding direct heat. Im sooo lazy lately!! I'll try to hold out until week 10.

I have a lot of new growth too, and super surprising! I initially was gonna wait til mid September, but I am starting to experience some breakage in the areas that need the corrective, so I'm going back in...
 
I'm 9 weeks post and I'm getting my touch up today.

would it be rude if i just got a touch up and left the salon without getting any styling done? i feel like all my setbacks occurred when they started fooling around with my hair. No, woman, I don't want curls or whatever. I didn't ask you for a trim. All that nonsense. Just relax it, wrap it and let me go on my merry way.

Loloo not rude at all. I used to do it all the time. Once they rinse my conditioner out, I throw on my conditioning cap & headed home to air dry. Lol
 
I'll be 9 weeks tomorrow. Going until 16 weeks. Every time I get to week 16 I debate going natural, but I always go for my touch-up. Maybe after I get rid of my bonelaxed ends. I will reconsider.

No, just make sure all of the relaxer is properly washed out. For years my nape area was broken from having my relaxer done at the salon because they half washed out the relaxer. However, I did fine a wonderful stylist that nurtured it back right before finding LHCF. But now I just do them myself.

13 weeks now... relaxing this upcoming weekend at 14 weeks and I CAN'T WAIT!
 
I think 8 weeks is my standard for stretching. Terrified of breakage.

My next touch up is scheduled for October 15.

Those are the Originals. The BB is new school. I usually only hear mixed reviews on the BB line. I can't even relaxer shop til October the earliest, since I'm already 7 weeks post. Hope you find the one your are looking for.

8 weeks post, trying to hold out until 10 but I think my last relaxer was slightly underprocessed. Currently setting the ends of my hair on satin rollers before bed and then rocking a wavy ponytail with a banana clip. I guess I'm not struggling, but the roots are definitely visible.
 
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up

18 weeks post today!

I might try to go 24 weeks. I haven't decided yet. My hair is doing so well, I don't have the desire to relax it just yet.
