Using heat to stretch your hair every week doesn’t damage your hair?
I will be using thank you so much
And yes you have inspired me to do wash and go's :)
What do you daily to maintain this style? Another YTer went 3 weeks on 1 wash n go. How long do you go in between washes? How do u keep moisturized in that time? How do you avoid fairy knots? What do you do with hair when you sleep and "style" when you wake up?
@@KJ-nv9uz I TWIST MY NATURAL HAIR. IF I WEAR MY FRO. I APPLY MY PRODUCT ON DRY HAIR ALSO. YOU CAN APPLY TO DRY HAIR. ANY MAINTENANCE PRODUCT CAN BE APPLIED DRY OR WET. IF YOU SLEEP ON YOUR HAIR LOOSE USE A BONNET.
praying to the good Lord that everyone seeing this will have hair as long & voluminous as jaelen’s😩😩🙏🏽
Amen
Amen! He is able 🙌🏾😂
Amen!
Halleluyah
Amen. Same for you to hun!

Check out razorempress too
and I still dont no what I'm doing wrong. I know my hair hates coconut oil.
Bagging your leave in before the gel is a game changer. I have 4C hair (I hate hair typing but doing it for reference) so you gotta do your leave-in in the shower while your hair is soaking wet. Put a cap on it, shower and wash your body. Then when you get out, you can use your gel or styler. Thank me later:
Thank you !
Imma try this next time i wash my hair 👀
Yep, all those extra steps us naturals be doing is so uncalled for when all you need is to shampoo and conditioner for 5 minutes, and proceeding with a good gel or styler after stepping out the shower
I have 4c parts in my hair. Gonna try this and I’ll be back in a week lol
What type of Gels are best and are y'all using quite a bit of it cause I'm not too big on wash n goes cause I hate how they've dried in my hair its not all around defined but I may have to play around with it and try again
I’ve been doing wash n gos for over a year and half and I can honestly say , you can retain length length with wash n gos. Just make sure your hair never gets to be dry and brittle. That’s all it is keep your hair moisturized. People fail to realize that you can leave your hair in a protective style and your hair can dry out but with wash n gos your more likely to pay attention too it.
Good point
When you buy hair products you look on the back they say use small amounts of hair products and your hair dry faster in the hot weather your hair going to dry longer in the cold weather
That’s what happen to me because I was doing wash &go’s but I wasn’t keeping it moisturize enough. Plus I kept it in a ponytail all of the time, which is another way to break our hair off.
I couldn’t agree more! I used to protective style heavily. Now that I’m at a length that I’m more comfortable with I’ve doing wash n gos, and I wish I did this earlier in my hair journey bc my hair is thriving on a new level. Wash n gos allow you to pay attention to your hair and they are just easier to deal with.
@@MichelleIjeoma I can see the different when I don’t use too much hair products my hair don’t take long to dry
You know what, it is honestly very satisfying to see a video like this because I always thought to myself “how come every other race can let their natural hair out and it grows perfectly fine the black people have to do protective hairstyles?” That never seemed right to me so I’m glad you made a video like this to give us the confidence to simply wash our hair and let it go and let it grow! ✊🏾
Tjoyce, you took the words right out of my mouth! I used to resent my natural hair a bit because I thought for it to grow and retain length that it almost always had to be hidden in protective styles while other groups could wear their hair out just fine.
@@chrissiec2123 literally!! I started hating protective styles cause I felt like I wasn't allowed to wear them(I'm LIGHT light/mixed?)and they always break my hair but it's so normalized in my family to get them but not take care of my actual hair
Right! The point of me wanting long hair is to enjoy it and show it off not wear plaits and twists into a bun 24/7/365😕
EXACTLY!! This is what I thought!! I’ve grown my hair to almost butt length with protective styles, now that I’ve reached my goal it feels wrong to keep it in protective styles and not show off my long natural hair. I was like, why can’t black people hair exist in its natural state without being unhealthy? It feels unfair!
The whole concept of a protective style is a myth. They’re beautiful recreational styles but there’s no need to “protect” our hair more than any other. Plus people often neglect their hair for weeks and months because of it.
Great tips. I’ve been doing wash n go’s since I went natural in 1998. Grew my hair to tailbone length twice before and it’s waist length now.
How do you maintain it during the week? And how often do you do the wash n go?
Cool!
how long did that take? whats your ethnicity?
Girl!!!!!! 💯💯💯💯 I’ve been natural since before UA-cam was a thing... this is the key 💯 percent to length retention. Everything you said is it!!! Wash-n-go was my jam and that is how I did my daughter when I had her. It’s low manipulation, constant moisture/water because we wash more, finger detangling, and a good cream and sealant to keep the moisture in. Refresh with water until the next wash...THATS ALL! People always asked how my hair grows so fast... LEAVE IT ALONE. If you notice, that’s how all the big natural you tubers grow their hair.... wash-n-go. Y’all better listen. This is it! Great info. Great video. You hit the nail on the head. I’m growing locs now...😊♥️

NaturalReign is speaking facts!💯 I just want to live and wear my natural, kinky-coily hair in peace. Wash and gos have allowed me to do just that. Natural hair thrives on consistency, and the more you finger detangle the easier it gets...to where you no longer need a tool to detangle at all.
Exactly! I rarely use my combs and brushes anymore
A lot of people type 4 tightly coiled hair, complain about tangling and more single strand knots with wash and go', how have you managed that?
How long does it take you to detangle?
@@nicolletterobbins8920 🙌🏾
@@adwoamk8918 I would say develop a very low maintenance routine. I shampoo, deep condition, style in a wash and go once a week. My hair retains moisture, and nearly no single strand knots. Keep it simple(this also cuts down on knots). A year ago I cut out the ACV rinses, clays, etc, and my coils look so much better. I don't use heat when I deep condition anymore...the steam from the shower is enough. Finger detangling cuts down on breakage. Every bluemoon I'll use a detangling brush, and it goes through my strands easily...so finger detangling works. I spend at the most 3 hrs and 30 min on my hair per week. Bonnet every night and fluff hair in the morning.
I was never a wash n go type of person but during the pandemic, I tried to perfect it. I wore a wash n go for a month and noticed so much growth in my hair in just the one month??? And my hair is so much easier to detangle the next wash day
Facts. Detangling is a breeze when I do my wash n go’s too because I never let my hair get dry.
Omg I feel the same way
@@mzjoyy that was my problem for a while I would leave my wash and go until it got dry n crusty but since I wash it more often derailing is so easy and quick
@@stef9656 What exactly IS a wash n go?
@@taylorsara1237 A wash n go is actually: Cleanse, Condition, Set/Style, Dry and go 🤌🏾✨

Yep! It can be done... I did it for 3 years.. from TWA to 20 inches long🥰
hope i can do this, thanks.
😍
This video was just what I needed. I started doing wash n go’s and sticking to a routine for the past 2 months and I can already see the growth. I’m also noticing the areas where I had a lot of breakage are growing back in and i am so happy with my hair lately.
I’m so happy to hear this love! 🤗
I’ve been doing wash and gos for about six weeks. Wash day is every Sunday. I start with a homemade protein treatment. Shampoo, deep conditioner, leave in curling custard and gel to seal and my hair has grown and gotten thicker. I haven’t tried these products yet. But I will in the next few weeks.
I can believe my whole life I had this pretty curly hair. I’ve learned soo much from you and excited about my hair journey!!!
This what Im saying. I had lower back length 4c hair which was heat damaged by a fake natural stylist. I cared for my hair with protective twists and just left it alone. The longer my hair got, the longer it took to manage, twisting and untwisting, detangling, and whatnot. Nevertheless, I have big chopped and said to myself, SURELY I can retain length without having to twist it all of the time. I should be able to leave it out as long as it is moisturized regularly. Honestly, think about high school and how guys would grow their hair out without a protective style. They just applied leave in conditioner every morning and kept it moving. We ladies cant retain length because, honestly, we do to much.
Currently starting my wash n go journey. I’m transitioning from twists outs to wash n gos 😂 Doing twists/braids every wash day is just too time consuming for me.
Same exact thing I'm doing!! Plus I think the twist outs are tearing up my ends!
@@shaulanaw yes girl. Do what’s best for your hair!
I'm also going from twist-outs to wash and go's! Twists take so long and take up so much time. I continued doing twist-outs bc it gave me length and definition but I've recently been doing wash and go's. My hair is defined and although there's shrinkage the volume is immaculate.
@@aggiek.789 agreed sis! And yeah I noticed a lot more shrinkage with wash n gos, but a good banding/blow dry stretch will do the trick!
How do you sleep with your hair after wash day since you’re doing the wash n go’s instead of twists?
My hair is the exact opposite , wash n go's make my hair get matted and tangled and to detangle it cause my hair to break off but keeping it in twist made my hair grow to mid back
Same for me
I’m the same.
But I’m low porosity. She’s high porosity. I’m suspecting that has a lot to do with it
Same for me too. It seems like henna or really thick clays are the only one that can tame my high porosity 4c curls but you have t9 wash those out😞 gel flakes & takes tio long to dry. It may have been my product selectiion back then tho when i was a product junkie but now my rountine is so simple so i might by a good blow dryer for stretching and try to find a heavy moisturizing cream with clay like consustency & try again one day soon🤷🏽💆🏽
@@sammy69831 I'm high porosity 4c too; wash and go's are my go-to hairstyle (in fact, I wear them 99% of the time, I only ever protective style twice in 3yrs). I do my mine rather unconventional though..... I don't use a leave-in or moisturizer after washing out my deep conditioner, I just apply a little oil and hair gel (wetline extreme). My hair stays defined for the whole week...and it could last longer but I have to wash it every week because I do taekwondo so I sweat alot and even then my wash and go's are impeccable. You should give it a try to see if it works for you....just remember you MUST deep condition, that's the only way your hair will stay hydrated. Good Luck!
Same sis
This is awesome! I avoid curl typing but I have “4c” hair and I’ve been only washing, conditioning, and using gel for wash and go’s. It’s been a month and my hair has never felt this good. Yes. My hair shrinks about 75-80%. But shrinkage is shrinkage and I embrace it cuz it looks like a cool little cut! I barely get any tangles, shedding is minimal and breakage is nonexistent. I can’t wait to see where my hair is in 6 months!!! I also don’t use anything apart from shampoo, conditioner, gel, or mousse depending on if imma throw a wig on during the week or not.
I love wash and go's. They're quick and last a week for me. The key is finding out the right products. My wash and go's were okay with cantu and eco styler but my hair looks amazing with Mielle pomegranate and wetline extreme.
Which Mielle pomegranate product?
@@lachellee The leave in.
I'm going to try it...love the leave in but haven't tried the wetline gel
It's Softee olive oil styling gel and Carol's Daughter coil enhancing moisture butter for me. Also soaked my hair in water first and it worked.
the wet line extreme makes my hair really really hard the next day :/
Thank God you said this because a lot of people are under the impression that your hair can't grow as much with wash-n-go's! Thank you so much for this and your hair is proof that it does work! Also, not everyone wants a protective style. I love wearing my natural hair... just as it is! Ok... where did you get this super sized plastic caps! I need those on my life!
I was literally looking up articles on how I could grow my hair just wearing it out. I was looking up to see if I could even do that with my natural hair. I live in the country country. There are not too many hairstylist catering to Black people down here. I’ve probably worn box braids three times in my life. The only styles I know is back bun, top knot, two cornrows, and a puff. I’m tired of doing two platts for the protection of my hair. I just wanna wear my hair out.
Wash n gos have helped a lot. I don't want to do anything else at this point. 😩
Your hair is always so gorgeous! 🤗
Wash n gos are how I grew my hair out but all of the gurus say protective styles and detangling. I wish I listened to my gut and my hair and stayed away from detangling brushes
I completely agree! Wash n go's work much better for me as well.
Yessss that's how I started out I shouldn't got on YT listen to other people for my growth smdh
Giving your hair constant moisture is key!! I started treating my hair just like I treat my indoor plants. Tons of love and water! My natural curls are cut into a short Bob now… and this is my go to stretch method!! I like to air dry for a few hours to allow my curls to really tighten in place. Then I stretch gently using a blow dryer. I get almost 3 additional inches with this method. So simple and so effective!
how often do you wash your hair
Just wanted to let you know how much you’ve inspired me to wear my natural hair AND do wash n go’s! It’s been 2 months and I’m loving the results each time! Thanks for the inspiration 💕✨
I'm so proud of you!💙
Your curls look beautiful
One thing I notice about those who have grown their hair long - whether they do protective styles or wash n go - they do not use combs in their hair. They detangle using the fingers with water or conditioner. I am definitely going to do that.
YESS! after I detangle before wash day, everything done during the week are my fingers or an afro comb to pick the roots.
Even when i change styles/pony tails during the week I use the detangle brush to sculpt roots only, and my wash and gos are no combs until wash day
I also have about 4 different tools to detangle based on how tangled my hair is, so im not over manipulating or under detangling... Much Luck on your journey
Same
Ms. Mississippi is thigh length and she uses a comb every single wash day BUT she washes her afro textured hair every 2-3 days WITH shampoo. Washing the hair frequently actually makes it more resilient. The main reason our hair can't handle tools is not the curl but the strands are fragile, brittle, and dry because we don't shampoo enough. Even once a week is too long.
This black female scientist explains it clearly:
I finally made the decision to stop being cheap this month and invested in some better products😅......been natural for 5 years now and I've been stuck on the same length......so definitely going to start a regimen and deep condition every Sunday and no more combs etc
Combs are the enemy.
I HIGHLY believe in deep conditioning and finger detangling!! Dusting as well. I think it helped me retained length so much
Trim the split ends at least every 3.5 to 4 months.
can you do a nighttime routine? that's what I struggle with the most :(
That's my problem too
The hair gods said yep we about to bless her with this amazing crown! 😍 your hair is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!
You really are the Wash N’ Go Queen 💅🏽👑😂💞
Your hair is absolutely beautiful. It reminds me of Chaka Khan in her video when she sang "I'm Every Woman".
Yes! I thought of Chaka Khan, too!
Your dry stretch method is life changing! You're the only one I've come across that does it. It makes life soooooo easy! I use the band method, no heat; once hair is completly dry I band sections for about 2 hours then remove the bands and presto! Instant stretched, curly hair style! Love that you embrace and promote wash n go!
The way my hair is setup, I have yet to figure out a wash n go method..Your hair is gorgeous 😍
Same lol. I usually do twists and twist outs because i never thought type 4 and high porosity could do wash and gos like this. Ima have try soon.
Beautiful hair
S Curl products did it for me 💕 I use the leave in spray and the activator gel with eco styler gel on top. Day 1 will be a little sticky but day 2 and beyond are awesome. My hair feels hydrated and soft throughout the whole week. If I need to refresh or define curls I just add a little water (no extra product) and the results have been amazing 🔥
I got so much breakage from not being patient and gentle when detangling 🥴. Ima do better though! Thanks for this
💙Jesus lived the life we couldn't live and died the death we deserved and rose 3days later, repent of your sins and trust in Him💙
Same girl same
I just took made notes because I've been in the same length for years now and I'm over it ! I love the tips and the results this was bomb.
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 yes same
Trim your end!!!
Hair always grows, but break offs, if not trimmed.
how has the growth been so far??🥰
That's me my hair grows so much but just breaks off I have low porosity hair
Curlsmith has been sponsoring all the UA-cam girls! Here for it🙌🏾
Yeah and they have put me on to some great products
Been natural for 3 years and it's been 100% wash n gos.
Grown everyday but mindful that I have extremely tight coiled curls with 75% shrinkage (not a stretcher) so an inch for someone is not an inch for me in my natural state...and I love it 😀
I became a wash and go girl in 2017 and it was the best thing i ever added into my routine. They more you do it the easier wash day is! Plus twists take like two days to dry and im not walking around hiding twists! If my wash and go is still wet i just put it in a bun or pineapple! Instant hairstyle! Lol
You might use to much hair products that why it take long to dry your twist out
@@saharajohnson6481 ! I will try to use less! Thank you i love how twist out look on others but i just cant get it right lol
Thank you for this advice because I have 4C HAIR. Ever since I found a all natural protein conditioner and used ALOE on the scalp and hair strains, my hair looks moisturized and juicy all the time. And I started to get less shedding and breakage. 💕
Whenever I do wash n go's they ALWAYS give me terrible single strand knots which make me end up cutting my hair 😭😒 I'm so jealous
It was the same for me at first. But a girl was Determined!😂 I stuck with it and 2 years later of consistent wash and gos only, and it's all so simple now. Natural hair thrives on consistency. For a wash and go consistency and finger detangling is the key. Your hair gets used to being treated in a certain way, and with wash and go's the hair conforms to that style...LITERALLY! I probably get like one or two single strand knots(if any) now on wash day. Every 5 to 7 days. NaturalReign is correct!
If you stretch it, it'll get better! ❤
Try the shingling method. Works for me.
well not everyone's hair is built for the same things, some ppl are more prone to knots.
@@927hotstuff exactly. My 4c hair don’t agree with wash and go no matter how hard I try so I’d rather twist out!
Hold up, wait a min... did we get two hair videos within one week?!?!?!
Agree wholeheartedly!! I grew my hair to waist length doing primarily wash and gos for almost the entire time I’ve been natural (5/2012).I did a second big chop in 2019 because I went on Keto (lost 96 pounds) but probably over did the fasting and also entering the menopause years (hormone changes). I’m still doing wash and gos. I’m not fasting drastically anymore and I’m taking natural supplements. I’m back to bra strap length coming from a tapered cut I did in September of 2019. So... definitely possible.
my lazy xss:
*did she say i don't have to wash it out* 🧐🤩🥳
Lololo😂😂
💙Jesus lived the life we couldn't live and died the death we deserved and rose 3days later, repent of your sins and trust in Him💙
Yes ma'am. Buying it immediately!
Done that it works!! Chopped it just below my ears in 8 months it is below my shoulders.
I used to do wash n go’s all the time. But I stopped because youtubers said we needed to keep our hair stretched😩 so I started combing out my super defined 4A curls to doing braid outs and twist outs and my hair was just breaking off so bad. So I thought back to when my hair was the healthiest, which was when I was finger detangling and doing wash n gos every 5-7 days!!
Wash and go really grows my hair. "Protective styles" end up breaking my hair more when I take down the styles. I started back wash n go yesterday and plan to stick with it. I used to co-wash n go a few times a week and a clay wash a couple times a month. Back to what worked (Kinky-Curly Knot Today and their gel).
Carol's daughter has a goddess line. And when I tell you it's life changing as dramatic as I sounds. I had my spring twists in for a month-and-a-half I'm taking them down now. My hair feels so good. Man
Thnx girl, now I know to try it out
I agree, you CAN grow your hair with wash and go’s! I’ve been doing them for 6 months and my hair has definitely grown! But I’m going back to my twists because I just miss them❤️😅! Great video Ms. Reign, Thanks for sharing 🥰!
I grew my hair out like that (but without the diffusion/stretching portion) back in 2004-2005 without even realizing lol...I would just wet my hair daily while showering, put some hair grease for the curls, and pineapple and hit the door for the day and let it air-dry. After a few months, I was like, let me see how my hair looks straight, and when I tell you my hair was down my back!!! I was like whaaa, I wasn't paying any kind of attention to my hair like that, I was too busy 😂😂
It seems like your hair is easy to detangle which means less breakage. Having a wash and go for a week and a half and then being able to detangle this easily, that’s just not the norm.
But tbh the more frequently you detangle hair the easier it becomes
Yes her hair is easy to handle
She trained her curls, it gets easier once you done it for so long. Finger detangling went from hard to easy for me once i done it so many times n realized how to make it easier for myself
Hair truly depends. I have almost waist length high porosity hair (I've been natural 5 years). I wash every 2-3 weeks, deep condition maybe once every three months and use protein treatments maybe once a year. I wouldn't recommend anyone do what i do but it works for me. I went to get my hair flat ironed and when i explained how low maintenance i was the hairdresser prepared me to lose inches of length. I only needed an inch gone but i also trim myself about twice a year. I think doing so little and genes is why my hair does great but others need more.
Right! Everybody is different. Some will swear by wash and gos or wash their hair every week. That’s not me!! Twists and braid outs helped me to keep my length. And yes I need a wide tooth comb cause single strings knots are real sis!
Yes. People always leave out the major role genes play!
How do you keep you high porosity hair mosturizrd
genes is the key factor herw
Isn’t that unhygienic though. Why would you go weeks without cleansing? 🤢
I started watching you years ago because you said you have high porosity hair and so do I! I'm graying and could never dye my hair because dye would dry my hair out and cause breakage. I've been natural for almost 3 years and I've done only wash and goes and they work for me too! I'm tender head so I can not tolerate tight, pinching protective hair styles they give me headaches. My hair is flourishing with the wash and gos, finger detangling and low manipulation.
I really wish I could. No matter how many videos of wash and go I watch. My hair just ain’t acting right. And I ain’t trying to go to a salon because they wilden w/the prices $400 is ridiculous
For a wash and go?!!!!!! What!!!!! That’s outrageous!!
My hair is super coiled and if i were to leave my hair out i will have tangles galore i canttttt. So I’m always twisted up and PROTECTEDDDD.
@@IConquer yes idk if that’s just in my area but it’s too much
@@IConquer I experienced the same. That why I keep my hair in two strand twist. I don’t have problem with growing my hair. I just want to master a wash and go
I'm currently on a wash and go challenge. Since being natural my go to style has been a twist out. So my hair is "trained" to do well with twist outs. I believe that if you want to perfect the wash and go it is going to require training your curls for that particular style. I hope my theory is correct.
I did the same thing! My hair has grown so much in the past 6 months and I’ve pretty much only done wash and go’s
I love your hair and thank you for a basic simple wash n go.
I just want to say thank you so much for helping us know that you don't need protective styles to grow natural hair and that we can enjoy wearing our hair out while our hair grows😊😊
I’m on a quest to do a simple style that doesn’t take long, looks good for day or night and helps with length retention. I’m trying wash n go’s again and you helped inspire me to keep it up. Your hair is gorggggg! Thanks for the video! 😍
I will try this as well, because my hair is getting on my nerves!! I've been natural for 5 years and my hair won't go past my shoulders. I started to keep it stretched by braiding it at night so it won't get notted up and that seems to work. I have 4c low porosity hair, I pray that this works, because I was thinking about putting a perm in my hair.
How are the results now?
OMMMGGG!!!!!! You have answered my questions! I don’t have to use to many methods to grow and take care of my hair! I really appreciate you sharing your journey 😩🙌🏽
My wash and gos used to take 2 hours from the time I stepped in the shower to the time I was ready to leave the house. I trained my hair and I can get it done in 30 mins if I need to now. And my hair is about lower back length not quite tailbone yet.
This is exactly what I’m talking about! You get a good routine going and your hair leaned how to behave over time! 👏🏽👏🏽
YASSS!
I've had the most growth from wash n gos. I used to protective style but my hair was breaking off because it's so fine. For me, the best part of wash n gos is I can see and feel how my hair is doing. I gotta try getting back into finger detangling tho
Honestly you sold me on the fact that you don’t have to rinse out the deep conditioner. I wanna go purchase today 😭
Right! I hate getting back in the shower.
💙Jesus lived the life we couldn't live and died the death we deserved and rose 3days later, repent of your sins and trust in Him💙
im low porosity and that would never work for me. too much build up
you are so right in everything you said especially when you said if you train your hair it adapts and is easier to manage. I'm a wash n go natural too and I watch you bc we both have similar routines and hair types. ppl just want shortcuts and miracle products and don't wanna actually go thru trial and error and actually learn their hair. they want an overnight solution and that ain't how it works. but once you have a hair routine and know what your hair likes and does this natural hair game is easy
Damn girl!! you hit it you've gotta learn your hair
That color look so beautiful on her. I live for my wash and go styles on my locs. No re twisting or tightening, but I do gently separate the lose hairs and locs that try to join together for the last 3 years letting them do their thing. Just cleansing, deep conditioning, scalp oiling and a little bit of leave in conditioner and absolutely no heat.
I'm high porosity too and I found that the gel works as a barrier to keeping the moisture in my hair. Because as high porosity, the hair does not retain moisture. The wash and gos grew my hair for that very reason. The only thing was that I needed to redo every three days or so. I need to work on that.
Loved this so much. My hair started retaining so much length lately, and I realized 2 things I had changed: Deep Conditioning, Wash N Go's 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽....I used to stand by protective styling only for growth retention, but listennnnnnn Moisturized hair is key 👏🏽🙌🏽
How often do you wash and go !?
The deep conditioner I use is protein based so I feel like I get the best of both worlds 🤣
What Conditioner is that?
Boy, I thought I was a talker. You go girl
I already have my growth regimen, but I love watching people wash and style their hair 😖😩😫
Yesss I'm here love. Taking notes,and sharing❤📝😘
Girl I’m scurrreeddd I swore off of wash n gos to avoid single strand knots 🪢. You’re tempting me 😩
Same! I get so many, but I have a tendency to let my hair get dry because I want a lot of length and volume.
You must get routine cuts/trims if you want to maintain great WNG.
@@naimahw635 I know for me, I get trims every 2-3 months and do protective styles in between. As my hair grows out, the strands that get free (on nape of neck and framing my face) tend to tangle and knot up.
Stretch while your hair is drying, helps keeps them away for sure
I’m going to trim my ends and start over 😩
Get it girl! I believe in you!!
same I have like 4 inches to cut off
I’ve just started doing wash and go’s. I was blowing out my hair for over a year for twistouts. Wash and go’s provides so much more moisture for my hair and I love it. Can’t believe that I kept relying on the heat.
I haven’t mastered wash and go. Those fairy knots was taking over and I left that style alone.
Try a trim
"You gotta pick a struggle." LOL! Wise words indeed! Thank you for sharing.
I've noticed that my hair grows so fast with wash-n-go's. It's never gotten as long as yours, but it got longer than it's ever been ❤️
Thank you so much for this video. I don't do protective styles either and I have noticed hair growth by doing wash n' go's.
Ooooooo!! I am natural, high porosity AND I LOOOOOOOOVE hair color too so I love that you shared this. I am 47 and color is the struggle I choose too 🙌🏾 So healthy hair is important for me. Regarding my wash and go’s, regardless how long it gets, it always shrinks into a little curly fro. 🤷🏽♀️ I’m wearing braids because I’m a lazy natural. Anyway, great video! Your hair is beautiful!! Thanks for sharing!
You and Halle and the girl from Eve's Bayou is FAMALAAYYY!!
You cannot tell me otherwise lol
Omg yesss!
Yep!!

@@Naturally_365 thankyou
I just want to say thank you so much for doing this video. I am so glad that you posted this, because as someone who loves color, I was always so worried about my hair not being able to grow with color. I have been natural since I was 15 and I am 24 now, and I have seen some growth, but it hasn't been growing like I wanted. And I think--No, I know a lot of it is because: A.) I did not have the right products and B.) I wasn't sure how to go about it. I have dreamed about having long beautiful, healthy, natural hair for some time now, and was really getting depressed because I couldn't figure out why my hair wasn't growing. I used to always envy my sister's hair because it was more loose and more manageable mine, and because of it, my hair and I were not on the same page. It's taken a lot of time for me to realize that just because my curls are a little more tight, does not mean they can't be beautiful and long.
I recently just started getting into wash and Go's. And seeing this video, has truly inspired me. I know now that it is possible to have vibrantly colored hair and retain length, as long as my hair still gets its protein and moisture. So, thank you so much for sharing this. I am also looking into the exact products you used and plan to try them out and color my hair, because Bay-beee it's time for some color, hahaha! Best of wishes to you and you have deff. earned yourself a new subscriber.
Another perk-
The hair gets re-moisturized with every reset
I love it! " You gotta pick a struggle.."
Where's the t-shirt?? And AMEN to diminishing thosesingle strand knots SO INSPIRED
For the past year or so I've just been loving wash and go's. I used to do braid outs, flexi rods, bantu knots, etc. I find doing wash and go's is just so much easier and faster, my hair is more moisturized, and I get less breakage.
Your hair is sooooo beautiful an pretty I've been natural for over 15years an has been a journey trying to find the best products for your hair but it's a work in progress. Im going back to my wash an gos for summer
I can definitely say that this is true! I don’t know much about hair types but my hair doesn’t look like yours while wet but wash n go’s have been the best thing EVER for my hair. And has gotten my hair to longest it’s ever been. So I do think this could work for multiple types of hair
This is black excellence. Thanks for the thumbnail 👍
I have no idea what the porosity of my hair is, but I'm def doing this.
Do a strand test. If your floats, you have . If it sinks, you have . The Slip'n'Slide Test: Take a strand of and slide your fingers up the shaft (toward the scalp). If you feel little bumps along the way, this means that your cuticle is lifted and that you have
FINALLY A NATURAL HAIR VID I CAN AGREE WITH WHOLE HEARTEDLY (definitely subed)
I do wash and goes and my hair is finally retaining length. I redo it every other day. It takes no time in the shower to do.
I love hearing about how frequently you redo your hair. I've just started my commitment to doing wash and go's and have been redoing it every 5 days. Glad to know I'm not the only one who washes more often than once a week.
My hair looks its best when I redo my wash n go every 3 days. I always know what to expect for each day, my hair is always hydrated and my curl pattern looks more defined from the consistent moisture. I’m grateful that I finally stopped thinking my hair wasn’t wash n go hair!
@@CloverCutthroat Yes! It's a whole new way of thinking about it!
Thank you, sis! When you said finger detangling your hair was confirmation for me. Combs break my hair and cause major knots I find that finger detangling works very well for me.
First, you hair is bomb and I love your energy. Second, this was just the video I needed to see. After long-term protective styling for 2 years, I’m embarking on a wash n go length retention and growth journey. I’m too juiced! Thanks for sharing, new subbie!
I use my w&g AS my protective style. Im high por, med density, 4a. Ive been doing all the good steps of a w&g lately... but then (while still wet) after all the products are applied, i put my hair into like 10 sections-braided plait at the roots and then 2-strand twist the rest of the way down and lay my edges and tie in silk to dry. Then i pin up my twists and plop on my headband wig that looks like my best w&g and boom! Best of both worlds. Healthy, curl-trained, always detangled, ends protected and sections ready for washday or style change with no drama.
me who cant braid watching this like 👀👀👀👄👀👀👀✍✍✍
Your video has helped so much..I have to wash and go evey 2-3 days.
Thank you
I won’t lie my wash n go’s have not been my favorite thing cause I’m trying to find the best routine for my hair and frizz has definitely been my enemy lol but this video has motivated me to keep going. Thanks girl 💖
Love love love your hair!!! Thank you for providing me with all those tips!
I wish my hair loved wash and gos. I love my twist outs but I might try some wash and gos this summer.
She said training your hair to do wash n go is the key 🔑
I’m with you, I love ♥️ a good deep conditioning! It’s one of my favorite things to do for self care 🧖🏽♀️.
