Okay so I haven't had my hair relaxed since August 1,2012 and I have seen a good change in my hair it's way more healthier and has grown so much my thing is should I wait til August and see how much my hair grew and then get a relaxer now and see what IM working with. any suggestions would help :)

Yeah I would wait until August if u must relax your hair, relaxer just strip your hair which leads to breakage

Thank you @Patricia I just don't know what to do because I also don't use heat on my hair so most of the time it's in a curly bun.

You can also blow dry it but I personally don't use heat in my hair to see the length..you can also try Bantu knots out or a twist out but, but before u take them out stretch the twist around your head and bobby pin them so when you take it out it will be stretched revealing some length

@carol I don't know if I can completely stop with relaxers but I will for the next few months

I also "pineapple" my hair after a twist out so it stretches...depending on your hair texture you can use keratin hair treatment for a more natural alternative to relaxers

@Patricia I've been doing Bantu knots but I just have a problem stretching them out every time I do they become frizzy

@Patricia can you explain the pineapple method more?

Patricia G.

Use Shea moisture curl smoothie and la natural gel together...first twist your hair like a two strand twist and the Bantu knot it wait until it completely drys before taking it out...use some frizz protection as well that helps

Do this while your hair is wet works best

@brie yeah it's Hard because I am still in high school but most people can't tell IM natural because my hair is curly. I have so much new growth I'm proud of myself but also can't wait til I relax in a way

No quite...everything is in a bow a the top of your head so it kinda resembles the top of a pineapple...I guess
