You could probably do both!! I don't think anyone would mind :)

So I'm back at plan B which was to wait until by birthday to decide whether to stay relaxed or transition to natural. I've been really enjoying my hair and I even missed it the week it was in my PS. Yesterday I didn't have time to style before going out, so I put my hair in a ponytail. Why did I end up with a luscious, bouncy curly ponytail!!!! I pineappled overnight and wore it again today. My hair is soooo soft :lick:.

Hey Ladies, I relaxed yesterday for the first time using Vitale Olive Oil relaxer. It took very well even though I still have some texture to my ends. I rollerset it and air dried while watching the superbowl.

It didn't help that it was rainy this am, my poor fine hair hates humidity :ohwell:

How many weeks post are you right now? I am currently 5 weeks post relaxer

How long are you stretching? I plan to stretch for 10 weeks. My next relaxer will be in mid March around the 13th or 14th.

Any other info? I am still struggling with finding the right products. I was doing very well for awhile and then I used something that completely threw my hair out of whack. I believe it was Chi Silk Infusion.

I would love to hear how my buddies are doing!:yep:

Hi klsjackson, I'm 9 weeks and TU next week. Did you clarify your hair after it whacked out? This would help to remove the whacky product. :yep:

Hey buddies!
So I finally caved and cut my hair and I feel soo good about it and relieved!! Every wash day I look at my ends in disgust...always wanting to cut but wanting to hold on to my length that I worked so hard to get. In all actuality, I've neglected my hair for the last 6-9 months which is the reason I'm here to day. My ends have no obvious splits but they were thinned, breaking and because I've had breakage in my crown and above my nape, I have there is a huge hole in the center of my hemline. It has even started to look obvious in my rollersets.

So here it is, 3" GONE! My new goal for 2014 is to be full and healthy BSB-BSL by December. No more racing to the finish line for me. New year with a refreshed hhj.

Okay, ladies, my weekend plans are to get a real haircut. You guys have inspired me and I'm tired of looking crazy for the sake of hanging on to these scraggly ends. I plan to go for a layered just-below-chin-length bob. Like Kiwi, the crown and nape have taken a beating and the only conditioner that will take care of it is a metal condish. Headed to the shop sometime tomorrow, wish me luck!

Ok ladies, the deed is done! I'm officially chin-length. I haven't seen it wet yet because I got a dry cut on freshly washed, dried and flat-ironed hair. I love the look right now, wash day is going to be interesting. I think I'm about half and half in the front and from about the crown down in the back 90-100% natural with a little help from Chi.

xu93texas and EnExitStageLeft, I'll post pics as soon as my phone is charged.

How many weeks post are you right now?
8 weeks

How long are you stretching?
25 weeks maybe

Any other info?
I'm trying to find a solid regimen thats good for fine relaxed hair while I protective style beneath wigs.
 
Hey buddies! Long time no hear from! I'm in a sew in right now and will be until April. Then its texlax time. 10 months post. I think I'm going to try ORS lye relaxer this time. My regimen has changed a bit too. I've started either not prepooing or only using oil instead of DC'ers because my hair would be really tangled instead of staying nicely detangled after I rinse the DC prepoo out. Unless my hair is particularly dry or like after this sew in I won't be doing that anymore. How are yall doing? ChocolateCupcake Hyacinthe Angelinhell MissyB
