Late posting this as I have had a hectic few weeks.

I tried so hard to wait until I was 12 weeks post to relax my hair but my regrowth was so thick, and in the final week, I literally couldn't do anything but to bun my hair everyday and I decided enough was enough.

I have self relaxed before but as my hair has grown longer, I prefer to get it done by someone else. I am lucky to have a friend who is a mobile hairdresser who is happy to come to my home and apply the relaxer to my hair, I get her to do it to ensure I don't over process my hair or miss any sections in the back or nape area.



I used my usual Organic Root Stimulator Olive Oil Relaxer, no-lye, normal strength. Before my hairdresser came round, I applied castor oil to my scalp and over the lengths of my hair excluding the regrowth.
