The Mousse and gel together works really well. And it's best used in less humid weather.
This new set up AND this gel is giving me what it’s supposed to had gave!!!! 😍😍😍
😝😝😝 thank you boo!
I'm not understanding why when a certain way to apply a styler is suggested folks veer away from the suggestion? It's like making a cake and saying instead of butter you'll use margarine and then Wonder why its not as buttery tasting. Ive seen people use the mouse and I think that helps with the frizz and application. Just saying... 🤔🤷🏿♀️🤷🏿♀️. I thi k your hair looked amazing by the way.
Thanks for sharing!
😂😂😂😂😂😂And will make a video saying it doesn’t work
Thanks for sharing
Your hair is beautiful.
I did my first ever wash n go 3 weeks ago since going natural 2 yrs ago. I used the doux mousse def alone and it turned out BOMB 💣❤️🔥💥😆 I have dense, bra strap length 4b hair and it lasted for a week in Floridian weather 😌✨💕
Them curls was popping though 👏🏾👏🏾
I think the glycerin as the 2nd ingredient is too much..glycerin is moisturizing however too much of it causes frizz.. might work better in the winter as you said. Also it's important to use products as directed on the instructions to provide a fair assessment of how the product performs. As this gel stated on the instructions-use with mousse def or use gel Alone, and apply to Wet hair.
The mousse def paired with the uncle funkys curly magic produces a bomb wash and go.
Exactly people don't want to trust the process
😍😍😍 I’m actually loving the big hair! My hair did the same on Day 3 lol. And I saw you put it in a leave in as well 😂. Thanks for the review!
Thank you! Yeah it’s hard for me to put a gel on my hair without a leave in first, I be scared 😩 lol thanks for watching!
I preferred using big poppa for my twist out. To me, the pop lock is better for a wash and go. I do believe this brand is underrated. What I had to learn in using all her products is that you absolutely have to follow the directions for each one. You should definitely give the mousse a try but use the leave-in with it.
I was eyeing the pop lock when I bought this one, I wasn't sure which one to try! I will definitely try the mousse with a leave in. Thanks for sharing!
@Freedom's Eve... in your opinion, was Big Poppa sticky after it dried?
I love it! I hardly ever do WNG but I enjoy great WNG videos and this is one of them. Hopefully it held up in the humidity!
It didn’t sis LOL it’s in a puff now! But thank you for watching!! 💜
@@AllThingsMoElle pou wetline on top and it do
I like this gel for puffs b/c of the volume, curl definition, and soft fluff. It reminds me of Kinky Curly b/c I have to use it the same way. Both are very moisturizing, no cast, and sticky when drying. I have other gels if I want a real wash and go that last, this does not last past day 3 for me either. I have tried The Doux products and most of them are a miss or just o.k. for me, but I am glad they worked for you!
It reminded me of Kinky Curly too, but I love Kinky Curly (I'm a 4cdefg girly, and very coarse). But for WashnGo, I need something a little crunchy on top like Wetline.
Yea that AP gel had your hair on 10! That mousse def is hella drying so idk if you want to use that underneath but it may help with hold 🤷🏻♀️ great honest video girl 😉
Okay so I won’t be using the mousse with it lol thanks for the heads up! And thanks for watching per usual sis 💜
@@AllThingsMoElle it would be a good idea for you to do one side with it and one side without because you never know it may work for you and it’ll be a good comparison video plus if you don’t use it ppl will say you should have followed directions 🙄 although when I ordered it directly from The Doux the card that came with it said use it alone. Not sure why the card and directions on the jar are different
You already have curl definition w/o the gel. Your hair is gorgeous!!!
Thank you!!
Girl, your hair on Tuesday still looked bomb to me! 🥰✨
I have no idea what you are talking about on the second day, your hair looks GREAT lol. I literally cannot stand crunchy wash n go’s. I rather have no curl definition if its gonna be hard and crunchy. Thank you, I will be picking this one up to try.
Thank you Mo for this review 🥰💕.. I really luv your first day hair and 3rd hair looks good too 😊
Thank you! It’s in a puff now lol but it’s still moisturized!
I loved your day 3 hair!! You looked beautiful! I love this wash and go series! I tried this gel when it came out last year and I agree its very moisturizing, but girl my neck was below sticky! lol
Lol it should say hella sticky not below sticky lol darn autocorrect ha ha
Thank you boo! And thanks for tuning in! 💜
Haven’t tried this gel or anything from the line. Thanks for another great video ❤️❤️
Thanks for watching honey!
My hair enjoys the doux. I have a wash and go with this gel on my filming schedule so I think I’ll either follow their directions or use their leave in (not sure lol)
Can’t wait to see your results boo!
Not sure why I wasn’t previously subbed to your channel 😩 but I’m locked in now! Lol
@@AllThingsMoElle thank you and it’s all good! I feel like i recently subbed to you too so it’s all good haha
I love the gel. I use it without a leave in. It last me 5-7 days just because I wash my hair every 5 days. I use it outside of the shower with a water bottle.
Thanks for the honest review. I have this but haven't opened yet. It's coming up in my rotation of gels.. This GA weather is something else! 😉
This Georgia weather is a trip girl! And I’d love for you to come back and let me know what you think of the gel once you’ve used it!
@@AllThingsMoElle sure will! Thanks love!😉
Use the double bee girl...Its very good. I love their products
Thanks for the suggestion!! ❤️
Imma try Bee Girl bcuz I don't want sticky hair & I found that Mousse Def is defining and has hold, but it's extremely drying, which leads to breakage... Yet the directions are not to use other products so it's like you need to break the rules to get a HEALTHY wng 💁🏽♀️
Great video, love the results! I have been natural since July 2020 and I'm afraid to do a wash and go. I will probably try this summer 😁. I have these products in my stash though lol.
You should definitely try it at least a couple of times! I was scared for years to do wash n go’s because people like to say that you shouldn’t do wash n go’s on type 4 hair....but after practicing its become one of my favorite styles!
Finally someone felt the same way I did. Glycerin is high on ingredients list so for me it has to be the perfect weather conditions for it to work. First time my hair was sticky, 2nd time I did it in the shower. Stickiness was gone but my hair was dry😖 I rewet and put a cream on top to twist it up. It came out soft, so maybe I’ll try that next along wit a leave in. 🤷🏾♀️
😩😩😩 I just feel like we shouldn’t have to go through all these trials and tribulations to get a product to cooperate sis!
True! But I should’ve known better. Got caught up in da hype knowin good n well glycerin is not my friend😒
I love Big Poppa!
Thanks so much I wanted to try this but ummm ion know if I want it now based on this although your hair was beautiful baby if it ain’t gonna last me a week or at least 5 days Ion want it🤣🤣
Exactly! I don’t have time to be doing my hair every 2-3 days lol
Your hair is gorgeous and you are funny. Good info in this video, thank you! I'm brand new to The Doux products so this was very helpful.
Glad it was helpful, thank you so much for watching!
@@AllThingsMoElle Since watching your video I tried the Doux products. Not a fan! My hair was not happy. I threw them out, cut my losses and sticking with what I know works for my hair.
Hey Mo nice informative video. Never used anything from the Doux and probably won't. Thanks for saving me some bucks. 🥰
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching as always 💜
Hey Mo... This is my first Doux purchase. Have not used the gel yet, but will definitely use a compatible leave-in of my choice underneath. Your results looked good to me! Thanks for the tips on how to apply.
You’re so welcome, thank you for watching!
Hey, like your channel! The Doux products are a NO for me. Tried the Mousse Def, “hated it!” Hard to describe how bad my hair looked and felt! Truly turned me off... that I can’t bring myself to try this Brand again...and I bought two. Can’t even give them away!
I've heard that from a lot of people!

Hey boo! The shine is popping but I can definitely see the potential issues with it. I have it but I am worried about how it will play in humid weather. I've only used her co-wash mostly because her other products don't really fit into how I style my hair. BUT now that she has this and the wash n go collection I've grabbed them all. I love the co-wash so I have high hopes. Great vid as always girlie!
Thank you boo! I saw that you got the wash n go collection! I didn’t pick it up but I was definitely on the fence, so I’ve been eagerly awaiting your thoughts lol. Thank you for watching! 💗
Hi girl new subscriber I like your channel and I’m here for this wash n go series . Yay 😀
Yay! Welcome to the fam, love! ❤️
Thanks for review! I did apply in the shower without a leave in ( per instructions on the bottle ). It was too soft so I knew it wouldn’t last. After 2 days my hair was puffy and I knew I needed to wash it. I think I need to pair it with something else.
My hair definitely did not like The Doux products. Over time It made my hair super frizzy even when in the shower my curls were just not clumping together just this “wet frizz” and “webbing” before I could even realize my curls couldn’t even hold their shape. It’s a no for me
I've heard other people say the same thing!
Me either I will stick to Eco-styler
I love the big hair!
I agree with your review. I tried it yesterday and today my hair looks like day 6 hair. Too big, too soon.
Okay I’m glad somebody feels me! Its in a puff today lol
@@AllThingsMoElle I also live in Georgia and I believe the gel can't stand up to our humidity. I redid my hair this morning using Big Poppa and my diy strong hold gel on top. So far, less frizz.
I'm way behind on this gel. There may have been a change in the formula since this video because I noticed the instructions no longer advise to use with Mousse Def(or anything else). I've done 3 WnG with this product and I love it. I will say I prefer rubbing it through out large sections of my hair for a more defined/curly afro than shingling. It's like having day 2-3 hair on day one. There is a little stickiness but it goes away over time. My hair lady for about a week with just putting it in 3 twists at night and fluffing the next day. Right now it's my first choice when doing my hair.
Thank you so much for sharing this feedback! 🤍
I had the same issue with this gel, it looked good until Tuesday and then it was dried out, buuut, I didn’t use a leave in because they said you didn’t need one, so that was a mistake, don’t do it without a leave in! I took it back though, I don’t want to deal with it. I can’t seem to find that African Pride gel anywhere!!
Okay so I won’t be trying it without a leave in lol. I hope you find the AP gel soon because it’s bomb sis, you need it in your life!
@@AllThingsMoElle I’m on the hunt, lol, thanks MoElle!
What do you use for longevity?
That’s my favorite gel. I have multiples
your hair turned out bomb
Thank you!! ❤️
Great review 👍👍👍
Thank you!!
Bomb results 😘
Thank you!
I LOVEEE this gel! I have 3 jars .
I’m glad you love it!
The mouse Def said it has the conditioning in it
@@kiandravenson975 what are you talking about and why are replying to random comments from a year ago!!???
@@yourfavpersuasion9385 I'm just now seeing the video so I relied after watching And reading the comments.
Like I said: it has conditioner in it!!
I’m looking for a thick gel with a rock hard cast . Pappa just won’t do.
The gel with the hardest cast that I’ve tried so far is the styling gel from Style Factor Edge Booster! I also hear that the Jello from Eco Slay has a super hard cast too but I haven’t tried that one.
Do you remember where you purchased the hair sectioning clips you’re using at the beginning of the video? I’ve been searching all over for these specific ones and can’t find them.
I purchased them from Sally Beauty, but they haven’t had them in stock for a while! At one point they were selling the black and white ones but I don’t even think they have those anymore unfortunately
Your videos are too good to add that music noise.
glyceryn as the second ingrediend scared me so im putting wetline on top for extra hold
I think I will add some wetline on top the next time I use it!
@@AllThingsMoElle so I did that and it’s actually nice. But it won’t hold during long periods of sweating. So here’s what imma do. I’ll try a mousse on top of the gel and see what that does also
It's still cute but do you think of you add as lite oil it would still be sticky
The next time I used it I did use an oil and it was less sticky!
Love it
Glad you love it!
What gel would you recommend to make curls defind,streched even, and not crunchy that last longer?
The only gel that I’ve tried that gets close to that is Kinky Curly’s Curly Custard. You still get a cast, but the curls aren’t super crunchy. I have yet to try a gel that does all of those things while still leaving the curls soft, for my hair type.
@@AllThingsMoElle i will try that but if u find it let me know. I really dont know what else to use for my daughters hair
@@nikolinabookman4570 Try Curly kids activator it works
Deep conditioner recommendations? Will and won’t break the bank?
Right now I’m loving all of the deep conditioners from Soultanicals (literally all of them are good lol) and I’m also loving the Mixes Fruit Deep Conditioner from Nature’s Little Secret!
Maybe should have followed the directions, use mousse first. You did mention that maybe your hair should have been wet first.
Tried it both ways, still didn’t like it 😘
I was wondering about this gel, hmmmm still not sure if I wanna purchase this when I BC
🤨🤔.
I’d pass lol there are so many other gels out there that get the job done the first time around!
This stuff makes your hair fall out , you shouldn’t be able to see a person skull when the products are safe
I bought these products and it’s not working for me so I’m watching videos to see what I’m doing wrong cause these products were not cheap lol
Have you watched the video from the owner? She has a few good videos on how to apply based on hair type and how to handle your hair
