Touch-up at 12 Weeks Post
I did my touch-up three weeks ago at exactly 12 weeks
post. This is officially my shortest stretch ever and I guarantee that it won’t
get any shorter, one of my personal rules when stretching is that it must never
be shorter than 12 weeks. I did my touch-up using the same process and products
as my last touch-up in April. I did not get around
to flat ironing my hair until a week later when I did my first wash, this
was my results two days later. Those of you on Instagram would have already seen this.
I trimmed an inch off each section while flat ironing and
would love to take off more since I’m still not pleased with my ends but I
would have to wait since I want to maintain blunt ends and I won’t be able to
achieve that if I cut my hair myself. I am slowly bouncing back from my setback.
My plan going forward is to continue to do 12 week touch-ups until the end of the year then do a nice cut to kick off the New Year. Right now my hair is grazing BSL (Bra Strap Length), if all goes well I can start 2016 at full BSL.

Beautiful results! What's your instagram? I don't know if I'm following you.

DeleteThanks! I just followed you back! :)
DeleteYour hair is doing and looking great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Abena!
DeleteI also feel like 12 weeks is a good time span for stretching. After 12weeks is when single strand knots try to take over my life. Your hair looks lovely. Great relaxer results
ReplyDeleteI it was easier for me to do long stretches when my hair was shorter, doing 16 plus weeks was a breeze. 12 weeks is a sweet spot, no issues but I would love to do a 6 month stretch sometime.
