Secret to keeping roots from popping when stretching...

[blackbarbie]

I have made up my mind that I will stretch my relaxer out at least 4 additional weeks (to 12 weeks altogether)...may go longer, but before that time gets here (I am 3 weeks post now), I need to know the top secret to keeping the roots moisturized enough to where they are not popping. I have Type 3A or 3B and could go for a while w/o a relaxer, but after about week 8 or 9, it starts to shed. I plan to try Sylver2's method for stretching, but feel like I may want to alternate and use something on my roots to keep them moisturize as I stretch.

Any advice?
