Hi Ladies,
I've been planning to do a touch-up for my texturized hair, but I'd like to stretch it out some more. My new growth is not hard to deal with yet, but I've been feeling pressured to texturize just in case.
When I was natural sometimes I would find my hair getting knotted up all by itself!--no manipulation, no nothing. I tried conditioner washes, no conditioner washes, deep treatment, gel, everything. My hair grows out in zeroes and clumps together into the size of a pen spring. It will just randomly knot up all by itself. I texturized because I didn't want my hair to be breaking off because of the tight coils and knots.
Now I'm feeling nervous for the same reason, and I feel almost forced to do a touch-up even though I don't want to, just to prevent knots and breakage. I would like to give stretching a shot just to see if I can make it work. I usually wear my hair in a pony puff now. Will this be okay to stretch out the relaxer? My last touch-up was in March
Do any of you ladies have tips for stretching very coily hair? i.e. preventing knots, dealing with 2 textures, etc?
thanks
