I usually relax at 8 weeks and decided to try for 12 this time. I went to my stylist for a spiral set since I have not mastered putting rollers in my hair. My combout was not dreadful considering I have some newgrowth and I did not comb properly for about a week. She used a detanglinbg comb and worked carefully through the roughspots. The ball of hair looked pretty big but my hair is considerably longer so it could have been less than I thought. I actually considered taking it with me ..but the obsessive compulsive chick in me would have tried to count the stands.
The rollers were set with a rat tail comb and she said my ends looked fine and I could try to stretch the relaxer a bit.
I actually left with the rollers in my hair and took them out tonight.
Upon taking down the rollers I had several shed hairs AND several broken ones
. I see 2 broken hairs a week max usually and tonight I had like 20 or more.Some long strands and some short strands. It made me want to run back and see the rest of my hair in her sink!!!
Do you think she handled my hair too roughly? Could it be the comb? Or do you think it is I need a relaxer so stop worrying and just baby my hair?
