Hello everyone I'm having a little trouble reaching APL length and I was wondering if I could have a little help

. I'm currently at SL and I use a cliarifying shampoo once a month, co wash and deep condition once a week, moisturizer and seal every other day, I don't use mineral oil, and I also utilize protective styles (right now I have box braids). I am relaxed however I only get 2 relaxers a year because of the chemicals. I won't be getting my first relaxer of the year until the first week of march. I don't know if this matters but I use to be MBL until I started going to a hair dresser my aunt recommended and she didn't really know what she was doing and my hair broke off. Can anyone help me reach my goal?
