WHO ELSE GETS EXCITED.......

[MzOptimistic]

when they're 7 or 8 weeks post? I get super excited when I'm feeling all that ng because I can't wait to relax at 11-12 weeks and see that extra 1 1/2-2 inches of ng I know I'm not the only one who gets excited when their ng starts coming in. I remember when I use to get mad because it meant that it was time for a touchup, now I embrace that ng with a passion cuz I know I'm going to be closer to my hair goal

Same here.
Actually I'm only stretching 8-10 weeks currently b/c I wear my hair straight more often but also cuz I played TOO much w/the ng lol.
But yes I get so excited about relaxing and all the growth I got.

 

[Neith]

I sure do!

I'm 8 weeks post. I can't really tell by looking, but I can feel the difference between my new growth and texturized hair. I also can't see my parts anymore

To me, it is a sign that my hair is growing, it's not breaking and it WILL get longer

Nice thread T

I just rinsed out my prepoo mix and I was like you're doing good kid for 9 weeks...

feeling better about going past 12 weeks at this point..

I have 7 weeks to go..

Thats one of the great things about being relaxed...you see your length a lot quicker which is great for someone like me who is impatient. When I was natural, I got so discouraged because I could not see the length.

 

[tricie]

Wow, I thought I was the only one! Especially when instead of it just being a little wave, I can actually see a curl forming (it also makes me wonder what I would look like natural, but I prefer to relax it and watch it swang!)

 

[TLC1020]

I get excited also

 

[prospurr4]

I sure do! I'm 6 weeks post right now with about 1-1/4" of new growth, and I plan to do a self-touchup at 8 weeks. I've been experiencing a growth spurt this summer, so I'm really excited to see how close I am now to WL.

 

[fogannie]

I just love growth. I know that I am getting length plus I like the feel of the wavy texture of the ng.

 

[Rapunzel2B]

I couldn't agree more. I am 9 weeks tomorrow with lots of ng and I am so excited. I love it! I find myself spending more time on the boards researching because I am so excited. Great thread girlfriend!

 

[Highly Favored8]

I do I am 9 weeks post and have 4 weeks to go until I relax. I went out 1 extra week I usually go 12-18 weeks. I love massaging my scalp at this point!

 

[HoneyA]

Oh yeah, the more ng the better. Sometimes I want to stretch longer just to get an extra 1/2 " at retouch so I feel you.

 

[victorious]

I'm getting excited.

My hair is 9 wks post too, and this is my first attempt to stretch 12 wks without weave. Yesterday I did a prepoo, wash, dc, and roller set. My hair feels good.

I gotta stop playing with this coily new growth.

 

[joib]

I get excited too. Everytime I get a touch-up I can see a huge difference in length and thickness

 

[doll-baby]

Okay, yeah I do kind of feel like a kid at Christmas when my new growth is coming in full blast

 

[MzOptimistic]

HA! So I'm not strange! I knew I couldn't be the only one who gets excited with the ng. I just knew I couldn't be with all the ladies on here, some one must feel the same way about their hair! Thanks for replying!

 

[Extremus]

That's me.

I hate when I'm 3 weeks post and still don't feel any new growth

I also get excited to try out my new conditioners (that I bought when I was freshly relaxed) on my new growth

 

[freshlikemoi]

I dont get excited until about the 12th week. Because, I stretch for 4 to 5 months. --Its also funny cuz I'm so excited to relax but then when I relax and see my progress, the next day I can't wait for new growth. lol

I am excited I am at 7 weeks post and I can barely see my part.

Tell me bout it, I'm loving my ng. I did an oil treatment last night for about 2 hours, then rinsed the oil out. Today one of my co workers said my hair was very shiny and it's pretty and healthy. I only have my hair in a bun with a swoop bang but my temples are coily/curly I'm loving it

Hey Mo, what's crackin? You can do it boo. I don't even know how many weeks post I am. I know I'm somewhere between 7 or 8 weeks...Idk.. I try not to count anymore because if I start counting down *I get excited* I'm aiming for 13 weeks this time but never make it to 12
