March Relaxer

After 12 weeks (11 weeks and 5 days to be exact) I finally relaxed!

To be honest, not much growth but it was a good experience. My hairdresser said it was good I decided to wait so long to give my hair a break. It wasn't so easy though. I ended up using Motions lye relaxer because my Mizani butter blends is done. I really like it.

I'm still at APL. No big difference. I'm still loving my hair tho.

  3. Thanks ladies! China, ur funny :)

    I am sticking with this routine. I am happy to inch toward BSL as long as no setbacks like last time I was at APL.

  4. I'm so jealous of your length!!! After my last stretch I felt like I didn't retain as much as I would have hoped. :( Ah well, I'm working harder on this next round!

  5. Wow, your hair looks great. I have been p-styling for a while as you kow. I don't use alot of heat, pretty much similar to you, but I can't figure out how often and how much I'm supposed to trim. How did you determine this? Normally by the time I get a good trim, it's too late and I'm set back to a little longer than SL, but not quite APL.

  6. Thanks much! I feel good even though sometimes I complain.

    Glamour, I hope we both see some movement this stretch!

    LaQT, I can't wait for your reveal :) I def don't trim my progress...my hairdresser knows I'm scissor shy so she doesn't offer a trim often - I got a trim from her in July 2009, then in Dec 2009. She takes about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. In between I do some dusting but I have no schedule though I should. I usually dust when I think my hair looks crappy. I went overboard my Oct-Dec 2009 stretch (3 dusts) and so I'm on a scissor hiatus right now.

  7. Your hair is gorgeous, now that I am relaxed, I'm hoping to have thick relaxed hair, as I had thick natural hair.
