[Aggie]

8 weeks post yesterday and 8 more to go

 

[MzSwift]

Might touch up sooner than I thought due to unexpected events. I may have to travel out of town and my extensions were not gonna cut it. Gotta wash tomorrow so I won't relax for a few days or more.

7 weeks post. If I don't relax at this month, I may ride it out and try to Stretch until April. I want a fresh relaxer for my birthday.

I'll be 10 weeks post this Friday, 12/16. I'm going to work on it in increments. I'm stretching for 3 months (12/30) and if all is well, I'll try to keep going for another 3 months (03/24). Maybe relax twice a year like @sylver2 did/does. I'll try.

2 days post! I feel human again! 12 more weeks to go. No more stretching for me! That is what causes my scalp to start acting up.

Plan on relaxing 4/1/2017-4/2/17.

I will have to start washing and rinsing in the shower.

I wish we could be buddies! If I don't relax at 12 weeks, it's gonna mess up the next relaxer schedule.

I stretched for 6 MONTHS , added oil my relaxer, shortened the processing time , relaxed in sections and my hair STILL broke off . this is the 2nd time this year! So im transitioning to natural. Im gonna miss all of you relaxed gals lol

 

[Rozlewis]

Hey Twin,

How have you been? Yeah, my max for stretching is now 16 weeks with minimal damage. At 6 weeks things are going really well.

 

[sunnieb]

@mzhotniz86 so sorry that happened to you!

Good luck with your transition!

Oh no! What happened? Does it have something to do with what you explained in the other thread? I'm trying to remember.

 

[Evolving78]

I'm 11 weeks post! I washed and I'm dc'ing my hair right now. I will be semi airdry, then use the blow dryer on cool. I plan on putting it up in a clip.
Detangling has been cool. I just have to take my time, use my spray and not a ton of product.
I really wanna stretch for 6 months, but ya'll are scaring me!

12 weeks post yesterday and 3 more to go

@mzhotniz86

Yes girl, tell us what's going on. It could be number of things: the type of perm, the way you tie your hair up or sleep, stretching too long, diet, stress, etc. Either way, you might still face the same issues as a natural so let's get to the bottom of it! ((BIG HUG))

 

[sunnieb]

7 weeks post. I skipped my weekly dc yesterday, so I'll make up for it tonight.

Not being hair lazy is the only way I can successfully stretch my relaxers.
