Relaxed this evening with Silk Elements No lye.. loved the results. My hair is wrapped up.. definitely gained length but cut it due to thinning ends.. hopefully I can make it to MBL by December!
3 weeks today. I am so excited because I already feel new growth at my roots. Crazy because I used to dread having those little wrinkles at my scalp...now I love it and look forward to alt more over this stretch.
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up
Almost 11 wks, longest stretch since I joined. I was stretching cuz I planned to change perms and start doing it myself, but I'm reconsidering. Every time I get on a roll with my hair I do something to self-sabotage (ie, changing perms).

5 weeks post this Friday.... so far, having switched back to No-Lye has worked in my favor. By 4 weeks with Lye, I would've already started fighting with my hair. I haven't had to do much of any manipulating this time around.
Re: Relaxed Heads: How many weeks post relaxer are you and when is your next touch up
16 weeks post, I want to wait until the begining of the holiday season and get a relaxer before Thanksgiving(another 9 weeks) IDK. That would be the longest wait ever!!
I will self texlax with ORS lye regular using the half & half method.
