I can’t thank you enough, beautiful, for taking the time to give us this video. My 15 year old sister’s hair is very similar to yours, and her hair had been matted up for months. I’ve recently realized that I needed to do more research on how to help her style her hair. We spent about 4 hours the other day de-tangling and conditioning, deep conditioning, and following the exact steps of your video. Her curls are poppin’ like I’ve never seen them pop in her whole life now! She’s legitimately hated her hair before and wanted to get a wig and would always say how much she liked my hair and wanted my hair, and that would break my heart. But she only didn’t like her hair because she didn’t know how to take care of it and I had been so ignorant thinking that she could just use my hair products for her own hair (I’m 3c I think). Ever since we followed your video she keeps saying how much she loves her hair now and is visibly more confident. I am tearing up just thinking about the difference. 4c hair is so so beautiful. Bless you, seriously. Subscribing to your channel now. 💜🙏🏾
I’m so glad your sister has you ❤️ You did something important for her. It’s very liberating when you can finally accept yourself or a part of yourself. It’s been years ago but throughout my childhood I went through my own journey of going from loathing my hair to accepting it and eventually loving it! Understanding how our hair works and knowing how to ‘tweak’ it really helps to accept it. You helped her with that. Your sister is lucky to have you!
This is a REAL wash and go!! Thank you so much for this video. All these creams, leave-ins and custards etc just make my extremely low porosity hair dull and white, so I can’t wait to try this tomorrow.
I have your exact hair texture and I have tried to get my wash and go to pop like this for the longest time and failed, till I came across your video a few days ago and I decided to try your water and gel method and it came out sooo perfect. thank you.
@@badandy8888 she washed her hair & put product in it then let it dry... that’s literally the most simplest wash a go styles. She didnt even finger coil her hair or anything so 🤣 your comment definitely made me laugh
@@badandy8888 yes, because other cultures can literally wash and go. We have to use products. I fully understand you. Products are a must for our hair to look decent to other culture’s standards. They choose to use product, we are required.
I'm on a natural hair care journey. I came across this channel. In all the vids I have watched I followed this one and it works!!!! My first wash and go without all the products beading on top of my hair. My curls were unbelievable. Subbed, thank you for sharing ❤
Wow so I was doing my hair wrong with the gel & curl cream. This video corrected me. I need to section my hair and use my hands & I can’t be scared to apply it to all my strands
I haven’t tried a wash and go since the beginning of my journey, which was like 6 years ago and it was because I had white flakes, maybe from using a leave in. I’m definitely gonna try it without all of that and see what I come up with! Thanks!
This was so great, finally understand how to take care of my hair because of you. I also saw somewhere else if you use a diffuser and blow dryer on your hair you'll still have the curls you made without the shrinkage
Thank you so much for sharing your hair knowledge with us! You have a gorgeous head of hair and I’m definitely going to use your tips to make my curls pop! I’m a new naturalista but you’ve given me so much hope that my combo 3A/ 4c curls can pop! Love and blessings to you 💕
Thankyou for this. I have been natural for almost 5 years and my hair has grown so much but I have never did a successful wash n go. I’m Queen on braid outs though
It is always so hard for me to detangle my hairs. I have never tried wash and Go after see yours I will try and your hair density is awesome loving the curls. You looking good I see how you are feeling the style 😄💃
@ Lilian Garcia- Try Curls Inc. Creme Brulee Curl Cream or Taliah Waajid Curly Cream. Do a twist out using these cremes. My sister and Mom both have 4C hair, and these products finally gave them the curls they wanted. Lasts about 3-4 days. Gels don't work on alot of low porosity 4C hair types and dries it out. Curly creams are better.
Maybe it’s the method you are using? The wash and go method: -Wet hair -Moisturiser -Gel OR REVERSE Wash and go method: -Wet hai -Gel -Moisturiser/Oil Have you tried differentiating the techniques/the order you apply the products?
I have never tried a wash and go. Still thinking how to pull this off 🤔🤔😌😌😌🤷♀️🤷♀️. Wow you had an amazing definition. You could have tried stretching to get some length. I'm still working on getting my hair to a healthy state 🥰🥰
One thing I realize tap waters, shower waters dry hair same way they dry our skin😒😔. The water we use in our everyday living are so not treated, bad bad.
You probably live in an area with hard water. The minerals in hard water such as magnesium and calcium deposit onto your hair, creating a film on your hair which will make it more difficult for moisture and products to penetrate your hair. As a result your hair dries out and becomes prone to breakage. These minerals can also clog the hair follicles in your scalp which could eventually lead to hair loss as well. But don’t worry, you can deal with that. Make sure that you use shampoos with chelating agents. Chelators bind with metal ions and minerals. Vinegar is also a chelating agent, so you could dilute vinegar and do an acid rinse once you’re done washing your hair. Your hair will become shiny as well. Just make sure you dilute the vinegar enough so the pH isn’t too low.
The next day just use the spray bottle again, don’t add anymore gel. Just a little water will make the curls fall back down. Don’t use a hair comb only separate using your hands.
I ALWAYS used a leave in. I never went straight to the gel after saturating the hair with water. And the hair always looks frizzy/dry by end of day 2 😭😭 maybe it's cause I'm low porosity and its too much product to use? Anyways Imma try this. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
It’s weird how moisturized her hair was with just water in gel. I would need a leave in and probably some type of cream to properly moisturize my hair. 🤷🏾♀️ trial and error I guess
Since you're low porosity I'd recommend putting your leave in straight after your deep condition and wrapping in up for 10 mins before adding in the rest of your products. I'm normal porosity and it gets my curls popping! Hope this helps
I love everything about this! 😍 When you said, “Echo styler gel is … it’s really … humph .. mmMMmm!! … hunh“. @ 4:46-4:50 I’m cracking up, girl! I was like, uhhh are we still talkin about hair gel? 😂😂😂 No, but really, your wash n go is sooo poppin! I’m finally learning these little tips & tricks myself 🥰 I’m so happy that us back women are FINALLY getting back to understanding that WE are the Ultimate Queens! And the way we just organically are with one another, and to women we’ve never even met! 😂😂 I just love it here! 🥹🥰🥹🥰
I noticed you have more than one texture 4b and 4c. The front seems 4b while the back seems 4c. How do you find looking after your hair or styling with the two textures? Do you find you have to look after or treat them differently? I always struggle with this BTW your hair is gorgeous
hello love, yes you are right .i have 4b4c hair and i find it sometimes challenging with it comes to styling my hair esp with the wash and gos. well i do treat me hair the same because its not even possible to style them differently. just make sure you give more time to the 4c section since the curls are hard to pop. stay blessed
Thanks! Love your videos ! Looks beautiful. I am low porosity so will def try this and without the leave in as I don't want flakes. Thanks for thay tip. How long does the style last? How does one keep it fresh for a couple of days? Looking forward to your tips :)
I just came across this video, so glad I did b/c I was thinking of trying a wash and go for the 100th time. The 99 never worked, hoping the 100th time I get it right following the instructions here. I do have a question though, how do you keep it from looking dull once it dries?
Wowwww well well explain thank you ,enjoyed every single bit , can’t wait to do my wash and go 😁😁😁😁😅😅😅😅 but i love me a wet hair and a finger detangling
i wanna try this but i dont know if i have the time to wait for it to air dry. how long does it take for the hair to fully dry/ for the product to not show anymore?
It depends on where you live . Hotter climates will take shorter to dry but colder will take more . Mine took 12hr cuz it was winter and I didn’t use heat
