TRUE Wash N Go Styling for Kinky Hair Textures | Hair Rules 

I've been doing this for the last month and my hair is FLOURISHING.. my curls are becoming more defined as well, I never knew my hair had such beautiful curls

I am in love with that lady’s super fluffy Afro 😍

🗣IT WORKS!! 🙌🏾✨I JUST DID IT ! (SITTING UNDER THE DRYER AS I TYPE THIS) why all caps? BECAUSE I’VE BEEN BAMBOOZLED, RUN A MUCK & LED ASTRAY ALL MY LIFE! 😭! THANK YOU DICKEY!! THIS TYPE 4 GIRL IS IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN WITH HER HAIR!! Love from Baltimore, MD. ! 💞💞

UPDATE: I never thought I could have defined curls. This method is fantstic. My hair actually curls WITHOUT curlers! Now, that's wash and go. No breakage from over manipulation of my hair. I use a hair bonnet or diffuser and ready for a meeting looking sharp and professional.

So wash 1x a week and then co-wash between...ah I finally got the answer to wash n go longevity. Thank you!

I love how he teaches her and involves her in her her process instead of keeping all the knowledge for himself ❤

Dickey’s method changed my natural hair. I’ve been doing this for a week and half. My hair is hydrated, the curls are defined. And for the first time in my life I don’t have breakage after washing my hair. His method is stress free. I LOVE IT!!!!

I love this quote from the video-- “Education is built into the appointment!” -Dickey

It’s 2020 and he is right on time with this info (and I’m 3 years late). I tried this for two days and I can tell it’s the real deal. He is the best 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

AMEN!! For 4c hair, this is a holy grail. It works beautifully (Pun intended). My hair is more manageable and soft as well as healthy. I'm forever grateful to Dickey for creating this method. Thank you, Dickey.

WOW! A lot of RU-vid influencers been doing "wash-and- spend-hours-to-set" with all that raking, shingling crap when THIS here, is what a true "WASH AND GO" is. I found this so late! 🥺 I also realize now that co-washing and deep conditioning are processes not necessarily products... The co-wash that is sold should be my shampoo! thanks Anthony!!

This gives me so much hope. I'm either going to cut my hair off or figure it out. I've been natural for a decade and never really embraced my texture. I'm sick of twist outs and braid outs. I just want to wash and go! For real!!

I am now a wash n go girl. I've been natural for 17 years but have only been doing wash n gos for about a year and a half and I couldn't figure out why my hair is so much more moisturized and healthier than it has ever been and this video has turned on a light bulb for me as to WHY my hair is so much easier to manage. Every time I style my hair the process gets quicker and easier. I would also like to mention that it wasn't until i did my 3rd BC and my hair was extremely short did I learn how to do wash n gos, which is why I am such an advocate of BC'ing instead of transitioning. If you can't manage your hair short, you have the patience to try to learn how to manage it when it's long. By BC'ing, you use less product, and if a stye doesn't turn out right the first time, its no big deal to re-do it, and practice over and over again because it's not as time consuming. When I had bra strap length hair a few years ago, there was no way in the world I was gonna re-attempt a failed wash-n-go that took hrs to shampoo, condition, detangle, etc. Anyway... ::steps down from soap box:: I REALLY ENJOY YOUR VIDS DICKEY!

I was skeptical at first but I tried it on my 4C hair and it works. Best technique ever

Alright, so I saw this and I'm glad I found this three weeks into going natural instead of a year in. I've been overwhelmed by all these natural hair RU-vidrs and have tried their wash and go styles and honestly I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME. The first time I did this wash and go I only put in leave in conditioner and totally forgot to add my styling cream. I let it air dry and my hair did feel soft and moisturized, however my curls weren't popping as expected, but I was surprised with being able to see my curl pattern instead of using gels and finger coiling my hair. Now, lemmie tell ya sumting. That Second Time. Adding the styling cream and a bit of argan deep penetrating oil. GIRRRRRLLLLLLL. I will only ever do this from now on. Sooooo happy I stumbled upon Anthony and Hair Rules. This alone has made going natural much easier! No more excessive spending for products I didn't need and were only making my hair dry. A little annoyed with how much I bought into the Natural Hair Community on RU-vid and the amount of money I've spent but I'm glad I found out now instead of two years down the line. Hydration is key! Give me all that water! My steps: Coconut Curls Conditioner Argan Oil Deep Penetrating Cantu Leave in Conditioner Maui Curl Smoothie Shake well like ya possessed and air dry. Eventually I'll invest in a good dryer but I don't mind letting it air dry for now.

I’m just learning about this method like a month ago from another curl specialist. One thing I’ve realized is that I haven’t been using enough conditioner during my wash days. I’ve also been extending my wash days for too long. I’ll start washing my hair every 3, maybe 4 days (same as I did when I was relaxed) instead of every 5-7 and see if it helps.

Girl came in with the best twist out, healthy hair and everything 😍

I want to go to his salon !!!!

I can't belive it took my 29 years to learn how to style my curls. Thank you!!! For your amazing Advices. I was afraid of water and used to walk with dry hair all day everyday. I even stoped wearing my afro that got too long and did not know how to manage. I've been only having compliments since applying the Dickey method and my curls are flourishing

This is the fastest most defined wash and go on kinky hair I’ve ever seen!! Love it !!

After watching this and reading the success stories in the comments, I hopped in the shower to try this myself. I have very thick, shoulder-length, 3C/4A hair and I always am trying to find a way to elongate and define my curls. This WERKS! Just putting your curl/styling cream on in the shower right after the rinse made a huge difference. I didn't have to worry about rewetting my hair because it started drying after getting out of the shower and setting up to style my hair. Just DO the Thang!

I've been applying this method to my sons hair (approx 3 weeks thus far), and OMG!!!!! My life has been transformed. We get compliments everywhere we go.

So she was happy with the 1st reveal and scared after the blow dry 🤣. I'm going to try this method tomorrow.

I’m here in 2023, biracial woman with 3A/3B hair type doing my best to learn how to care for both of my toddlers hair. My daughter and son both have 4A-4C hair type. Any other helpful tips would be greatly appreciated! So grateful for videos like these. 😊

I just tried this method. I am sitting under the dryer as I type. Just say yes to elongation!!!! Thanks Mr. Dickey. Ok I just checked and my hair looks amazing. I’m about to finish by defusing it. The scalp is still wet, but I freaking love it. It took me an hour and 20 mins., which included washing conditioning, leave in and gel and I was under the dryer for 25 min. My hair normally shrinks soooo much, this definitely gave me length. Again thanks.

I just do this and I do not have realllyyy kinky hair but BABBBYYYYYYY THIS THE BEST WASH AN GO I EVER HAD IN MY LIFFFEEEE. Making sure the hair is wet wet every time Working in ENOUGH CONDITIONER AND CREAM Omg!!!! I love u for this lesson !!!!

Ok sooooooo I finally did it!!!!! 1st time I tried it last week I still made my own amendments not knowing you must follow his instructions and steps. At 1st I shampooed hair because it needed a clean anyways after some weeks, then bentonite clay, deep conditioner, styling cream then eco gel then oil all raked through in the same movement he did but the outcome was still defined curls but I told myself the gel maybe helped a bit. 2nd attempt yesterday. Wet hair, deep condition, wash out, leave in conditioner (soaking wet hair is needed for all applications), shake hair for my life then air dry and the definition I kid you not is shocking for me with absolutely NO GEL. My hair is kinky maybe 4b I don't know. It did shrink in the back but the front of my hair is longer. This quick lil wash day was 30 - 35 mins max !!! At night I banded the hair in 5 sections then fluff this morning and went out looking cute with full soft stretched hair CON: My hair by day 3 was dry as F and started to tangle. This type of wash n go as Dicky said in the video is really to be done every 2 days........but I'm not gonna do that. I only use this method as a quick style that gives perf results if I have somewhere special to go TIP: I personally used a cheap leave in conditioner due to the frequency of this method and amount to be used (which wasn't that bad as the leave in i used was not thick so the product distributed quickly) and I actually loved it also. It was also slippery and foamyish. The African pride olive oil leave in conditioner is what I bought specifically for this. Whew this is a long ass comment 😥

This really works! I came across the video a few months ago and tried it on my freshly trimmed hair. A wash & Go had never worked for me in the past. I've been doing this for a few months but I was in NY two weeks ago and visited the salon. Dickey did a wash & go for me and talked me through the process just like he is on the video. Awesome information and an amazing salon. Any time I'm in NY I will be booking my plane ticket immediately followed by scheduling an appointment at Hair Rules!

THANKYOU so much. i get so sad that i dont know how to care for my hair and its like everything only works for other types. then i get so embarrassed and feel like if my hair doesn't have weave, then its not "done". but i hate feeling like that i just want to be confident in my natural self. i was even thinking of just cutting it all off.. but THANKYOU i keep telling everything u say here to my family and sending them this video. I finally feel confident in my natural state. I use to feel like putting water in my hair (even just in the pool) was a big NO-NO for my hair type which made me sad because other types do it just fine.. With this said yesterday i went the the pool full of people, confidently with my big fro 4c hair with no care in the world! I just want to cry happier it just feels so good feeling confident in my natural state and not being ashamed.

I love the way he explains hair care! He makes it sound so easy! Probably will have to try his products.

I just sent this to my son who has a big, beautiful natural fro! He’s 18 and a college student and wants to rock his natural curls. This is PERFECT!!!!

this is like Hair Therapy. literally

I just tried this for the first time today. I am BLOwN AWAY! I can't wait to take a shower everyday and cowash my hair for my wash and gos! ❤❤

This is how I’m styling and drying my hair and I’m in love with it! I don’t even feel the need to stretch if. It’s fun to experiment and play in your hair but you should always have an option of styling that doesn’t require that much effort and also makes you feel good. This is so cute on her!

Her hair came out BEAUTIFULLY 🥰

I am living in the Caribbean. This video was veryyyyy helpful ,I am glad I came across it,because I've been looking for tutorials to help me get my wash and go correct. I'm definitely going to try.

I STILL love Anthony Dickey's method best!

That is one one the best w-n-g for a kinkier style i have ever seen. Great job

Hosea 4:6. Thank you for adding knowledge to my life.

I remember the roller set! lol It was my go to style in high school in the 90's. My hair grew like a weed when I wore them too. I loved this video thanks for sharing.

This method is great; just do it on detangled hair first! The back half of my head wasn't and the wash-and-go exposed my laziness. I let it dry and THEN proceeded to address the tangles and knots. Oil was my best friend here (water was making my tangles worse). I used just enough to saturate the large, tangled curl clumps followed by finger-detangling, cutting any irreversible knots, and then finger-coiling the now detangled hair out of the way. I just wanted to share what I did so that you don't go on a chopping spree 💇‍♂️ like I was about to do 😊.

This is an amazing tutorial! I figured this method out on my own through pure trial and error. Only difference is that I comb the conditioner and the leave in product into my hair. It helps elongate the hair better than just your fingers. I also keep a bottle of rose water on me to spritz it throughout the day. Awesome video!

👍🤩💝That wash n go is great. 👍🤩💝Wow, there’s TAREN….I miss seeing her. I know she announced she was moving on to other things like Lucid Dreaming. I wish her the best. 🙏💝

This GUY!!! I LOVE how he helps the natural 4 type hair!!!

I never liked a whole lot of product in my hair before I went natural. I kept the same thought these past two months after my "little" chop. I'm taking your advice and my hair is awesome! Will cowash at LEAST 3x per week to keep this look. Appreciate you, Dickey!!

This girl’s hair is so beautiful

I love how knowledgeable he is ✔️

So I only been natural for 2 years and I really didn't have a clue what to do. I came across this video and I said why not try it. I always love my hair pattern after i conditioned it. My hair is super thick and dry also and it came out so good.

Im definitely gonna try this technique bcus aĺl the work of using eco styler and shingling is so time consuming and makes drying time a nightmare.

I tried this over the weekend..omg so much easier and my curls are so defined

I just did my own big chop today and honestly my confidence is through the roof rn. I’m going to try your method and see what happens as my hair grows. ☺️ This is the most optimistic I’ve been about my hair and I’ve been natural since 2007. 😭 Sometimes you gotta wait for your change to come. 🤣😭

Thank you Dickey!! I am crying right now😭😭😂❤️. I’m so glad I finally found you! I am 55 years old. I had been relaxing my hair since I could remember. When I turned 50 I decided I hated my hair so I had it cut into a red Mohawk 😂🤣. But after a while I hated that too, so I started doing weaves for the next four years and only relaxing my leave out. Then a little over a year ago I noticed that my hair had grown to almost bra strap length and I decided to try to work with natural hair. My hair has never grown past my shoulders before this, probably because I used to wash, blow dry and flat iron almost every day🙄. For a year now I have tried everything on RU-vid to get a wash & go and hated the way it would turn out till I found your channel! Every time I tried my hair looked so frizzy and dry and my curls would only pop in the lower back by my neck. My hair is now past bra strap length and Today I tried your method and I can finally say I love my natural hair! I was so close to going back to relaxer.

OMG!!! I almost shed a tear when I saw her hair. I’m so going to do this for me and my girls. I am sooo happy I came to know about you Dickey by a sister you saw doing your method and you reached out to her and you did a video chat with her. I have been looking for a way to capture this look because I know what my hair looks like when wet and with the product. Wow I am amazed at this. I am a “retired” barber stylist and this was not taught 20 years ago when I was in school. Thank you for sharing.❤😊

All I can say..(and I'm almost in tears just thinking this)THANK YOU SIR...SO MUCH

oh the beauty of that hair!!! we have the most versatile, lovely hair. Thank you Most High!

A master. Watching Anthony Dickey has made me so confident with my hair.

Best video EVER!! Just tried it today and it was awesome!! So simple yet so pretty, never seen my curls like that💕

I feel like I found the hair video dropped from heaven. Thank you. I made a huge mistake and allowed my hair to be dyed by a stylist. It is so dry and does feel like my soft moist hair before the dye. What's the best method to receive the same coil effect on my dyed hair?

Best demonstration of a wash and go I have ever seen. And thank you for your clarification on the care and how frequent you need to co wash to achieve the curl pattern

this just changed my whole game on a wash and go, i mean like, whattt??? i've been doing it all wrong and now i tried it, my hair hasn't looked, felt or behaved the way it does now and i love the texture and the curls, like c'mon, all these years and there was just this one video that makes it all make sense... thank you Anthony for coming to my rescue, i was about to go for a relaxer. you've just gained a follower!!!

This was so helpful! I did my first successful wash & go! Also Dickey explained what water and condition ain’t does for kinky hair so well. Makes perfect sense.

I miss this Taren. I hope she finds her way back! 🙏🏾

Yessss!!! Look at those curls. Love it.

I’m so glad I found this video it this method TOTALLY worked for me‼️❤️❤️❤️ and a 4c girl btw

had to come back to say thank you. 2022. It is true that sometimes the people who are making the most waves, may not be the ones with a million views. i have been struggling with embracing my curls, but for the first time, i did a wash and go this morning with you method regular condition( under a dollar) used also cheap mousse as a styling cream and i cant stop looking at my hair and finally feel at peace. just yesterday i was telling myself i love my hair only when i am in the shower. when i am out of the shower it feels like a curse, unless it is braided. I am blessed with much hair and my daughter has very long natural hair, and for the first time, i can encourage hair to wesr her hair as it is, and swim in it(!!!!). we’ve been avoiding water like the plague. if you ever need a representative in Europe, don’t hesistate to contact me.

I am impressed you didn't need to use any gel . Thank you Mr Dickey I ❤ it easy and simple ❤❤❤God Bless you

I am definitely trying this, conditioner, styling product and air dry because I hate sitting under a dryer

Wow, this is impressive!!!! I've seen people use this method on RU-vid, and it didn't make sense to me, this video was much more clear. My curl pattern IS NOTHING like hers though...lol. but great info if I just want a moistured fro (like the other lady in the video).

I love this i been doing this for 3 week and my hair became soft and my curl are popping and my hair is thicker and it so fun to do and it cut so much time ❤❤❤ thank you for this

I would like to see this in 4c hair rather the 4a hair she has

Awwww this is the FIRST time since I’ve been natural since 2013 that I’ve been educated on co-washing and shampooing the difference of both and how to lengthen gem- I was so scared of wash n go’s! I’m so ready to try it-Thank you❤️💝❣️💖🤣🎉🎊

Omg so happy I came across this channel.. This method has cut 1hr off my wash day routine. ❤️❤️❤️My hair came out perfect.. Absolutely love it.. Definitely subscribed..

Oh Wow! You have literally changed my life.

I have been doing my hair all wrong. I am about to go in the shower and do exactly what Dicky said to do

Her hair is gorgeous! Love it.

Where has this been??? Good Lord, I "Big Chopped", and stayed natural for 4 YEARS, had an intervention in my life when we took my husband's Grandmother in, and I took care of her everyday. Here I'm thinking, just wearing my hair natural, was going to make my life easier, all the while the neglect my hair got, along with taking more time away from myself, only caused more stress, and my hair was ruined!😔 I caved, and went back to relaxing. When I think of how healthy, and thick my hair would be now, all these years later...I could just cry. 😢😔

Omg this actually works. For the first time in my life I have gotten a decent wash and go. I am sure with practice, I will get even better at doing it. 🤗🤗

Wow! Great end result💕💕,he makes it look so easy 🤷🏽‍♀️👏🏽👏🏽

I tried this method and this is the first time a wash and go has actually worked for me! Tysm! This is awesome!

Her curls are popping!

Didn't know this was a thing. Keep hair short so can drench daily while showering; then add leave-in conditioner, pomade and let air dry.

This woman has a beautiful head of hair before he even touched it!

Dickey’s a natural hair legend 🙌🏾! Nuff said

I never seen natural look so good love her hair

This is a REAL wash & Go. If it takes 2 hours and 10 products...It does NOT wash & go. I can do this after a swim with no worries. I just pack my diffuser or air dry.

I'm in her situation as well. By the end of just one week, my hair has shed so much😩! Which causes my hair to tangle. My twists outs take about 2 hours too.

Wow! Never thought of it that way

I’m back to this video years later I will give this technique agin and see how I like it.

At last success with this method on 4c hair after 7 yr natural and no clue on my part. Please offer the gallons I would switch !

I've been using this method for a while now and I LOVE IT

Just tried this method today on my 4c hair, and I love the result! Used a little lotta body to help tame the flyaways.

Her eyes! ❤

No combing? no brushing? AM SOLD! rushing to the store to get my saloon size conditioner and curling creme😂.... Update coming soon...

I can say this works for my type 4 coily as hell hair! I was so amazed I’d never seen my hair so curly and defined 😍 such an easy process. I don’t have a hooded dryer however, so air drying time is annoying lol. Also, products I use leave white flakes in my hair when it dries; would you know why Dickey?

Thanks Dickey, my hair turned out awesome using this method, wow

🦻🏽Wait...what he said....lemme play that back again...(2:25) 🦻🏽🦻🏽🦻🏽... (2:51) 😍 Sooooo refreshing to hear ❣

Thank you SO MUCH AD, this is amazing the time saved, the RESULTS, the SHAKE!!!! I'm in love with the SHAKE! It seperates the curls and the curls do their own thing!!!

Very informative video.Her hair is beautiful!!!❤❤❤

So glad this channel was in my recommendation... yess it’s the running in the rain didn’t know that about conditions. Just adds the soap then set and deatangke with codingion and wash it out like that. I did leave my conditioner in one day then just washed it out the next morning

From what I see. It's all about the product and water
