Co-washing is the process of washing your hair with just a conditioner. It can be a blessing or a curse for your healthy natural hair regimen depending on how you do it.

@saritasmith9789 7 лет назад

So I think the takeaway here is that co-wash is an alternate form of moisturizing your hair not an alternate way to cleanse it. My hair loves co-washing, but I never use it as a substitute for my weekly wash and deep condition. If it works for you, then keep doing it, but cleanse your hair frequently. If it doesn't work, just stick to the LOC method of moisturizing. Anyway, I always love these videos. They're so informative

Cowashing makes my hair grow like crazy. I use only V05 conditioner 6 days straight. Then on the 7th day I use a clarifying shampoo and deep condition. The entire process makes my curls so defined and soft.

@sonsofelshamy3987 3 года назад

You wash your hair everyday?

@bopbop11 2 года назад

For kinkier and curlier hair you have to co wash everyday to keep it moist and hydrated. Is the way it's been explained. Cleanse once a week to get off residue from the week.

@celestialmorpho 2 года назад

@@sonsofelshamy3987 not with shampoo. so it’s not stripping. with only conditioner is basically like re-moisturizing. it’s easier because you’re in the shower and completely wetting your hair so it’s more effective

@whatdidhesayyy5358 Год назад

@Deklectic 4 года назад

I really love this video alot. I think alot of people have issues with co washing because they're litterally using regular rinse out conditioners to cleanse their hair but I recommend anyone who wants to co-wash to use an actual co-wash cleanser that is formulated to lightly cleanse the hair and scalp because it won't build up on the strands like it would if you use a regular conditioner that's not meant for cleansing impurities and oils.

@LisePlansandJournals 2 года назад

Correct.

@boomboom6577 4 года назад

It TOTALLY makes sense to me to wash my hair after three days. I can’t even go longer than three days without washing. But then my hair is very fine and curly-the buildup is real, even with minimal product. I just can’t imagine going longer than three days.

@poochieloo9870 6 лет назад

@necabibi3558 3 года назад

Co-washing made my hair so manageable, I grew and retained so much length in that time period. Super easy to detangle, easy to protein balance. I stopped coz everyone said its bad and I'd damaged my hair, with but my biggest hair regret was stopping cowashing. Lesson learned: Listen to my own hair, not RU-vid

Wow I just finished several months of protective styling and my hair had so much residue after my second wash and go... but it was a cowash. It took 4 clarifying shampoo treatments to get my hair clean. I decided I would shampoo and then cowash on day 3, and then shampoo again on day 7. No more buildup and I swear my hair has grown in two weeks! Now I know why I looooove this channel thanks for the time and research you put in!

I co wash with As I Am coconut cleansing conditioner and I have never experienced what's illustrated here. My hair continues to grow and maintains moisture. I also use Zuresh Get it Wet to maintain moisture so I believe that you have to know what's good for your hair in order to get good results. So glad you teach us. Keep up the great videos.

@LisePlansandJournals 2 года назад

I use carol’s daughter cleansing conditioner and same for me. My hair - and scalp both love it. My hair no longer feels stripped. I think using a cleansing conditioner (one actually *made* for cleaning) is different from using a regular conditioner and calling it ‘cleansing’

I appreciate this video. I stopped cowashing, as I did for the first 12 yrs of my life. Minus, yanno baby years. But after these last 7 years of not cowashing and waiting for one day to wash my hair, my hair breaks and never grows. So I'm back to cowashing. Crazy how everybodys hair reacts diff! I'm biracial with 3c/3b mix, if anyone is curious. I also use shampoo once a week and deep condition that day. I cowash every two days. I plan to do ACV clarifying once a month.

@joylynn0620 7 лет назад

This video was very informative. I tried co-washing when I first started wearing my hair in its natural state. I didn't like it because I have overactive scalp that needs to be cleansed weekly. It just felt like there was gunk on my scalp. Also there was no noticeable difference in the moisture level of my hair. So now I just clean my hair with a sulfate-free shampoo, use a rinse out conditioner (usually from the same line of products so that I can maintain the pH levels) and deep condition for 20-30 minutes every wash day. Then I use the LOC or LCO method for styling. If necessary, around mid-week I add a lightweight lotion to add moisture.

I co wash to refreshen when I’m not ready to have my wash day yet. I usually co wash mid week like Wednesday’s and then I have my wash day the next week on Friday. I used to wash my hair every week but now it’s every two weeks because my hair felt brittle every week after washing. My hair felt clean and refreshed because I use a coconut based organic conditioner. I leave it on for 15 min under a shower cap and then rinse

@cherylkirksey 7 лет назад

I never just use water for my cowash. I use distilled water and ACV which is a natural astringent and I add some essential oils to it sometime. then I apply conditioner let it sit and rinse. I never use my nails on my scalp. I'm tender headed and that scratching makes it worse. I love these videos!!!!!!

@huniebee2999 7 лет назад

The closest I ever got to cowashing in the beginning of my natural hair journey was mixing a conditioner with my shampoo. Later on in my journey I would switch to use the coconut cowash from As I Am. Honestly, my head would be itchy after four or five days so I set up a routine to cowash biweekly and shampoo biweekly. Of course, that was when I was desperate to hold moisture in my color treated hair before I big chopped. I think I'll only cowash again once I get my routine on deck, or if I don't use heavy products.
