- In this video I share my experience and two demonstrations using Jello Shot by Ecoslay to style my wash and go April 2021. Both outcomes yielded elongated curls. The first one was flat, the other had fuller curls. I also discuss some of the experiences with applying the firm hold gel on various clients in the salon.

The difference is so clear! The level of true hair and product knowledge education when you are professionally trained makes all of the difference!!!!!!
I just ordered the new packaging. I love JelloShot. This is my fourth order. I also use it with UFD Curly Magic. It makes such a difference. It’s too crunchy for me otherwise.
Yes the Jello Shot+Curly Magic combo is bomb! Love love love it. Thank you for sharing. Enjoy!
Her hair is simply gorgeous❤️❤️
Thank you luv
This is a great combo! My daughter loves the Orange Marmalade but I had been sitting on the Jello shot for a while. Tried it once with their Rice Pudding leave-in and did not like it. Then just this weekend decided to try it with UFD and viola. The way my fingers just glide through is amazing. My hair is super defined and I have movement.
I didn’t like it with the Rice Pudding Leave in either. UFD saved the day.
Lovely! Happy to hear this combination worked well for you.
Fabulous work on your hair and a very well in formed and thorough evaluation; I’ll be looking out for these products in the UK. I also wanted to add you could voice audio book, you tone is very relaxing.
When I tell you I KNEW this was the next video!
Hey Kayla, did you know when I posted on IG or was it just a hunch? You notice I am truly interested in the strong hold botanical gels. Have you come across any others, do you want to share any recommendations for me to consider?
@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty When you did Soultanicals last week and said another was coming, that was it. These two are somewhat similar. The Obia custard is just as capable as these two but the experience is completely different!
@@WhatTheKink I tried Obia Custard with UFD on my wash day August 14, 2020 (more than a year ago). It was so not good I didn't bother trying another combination. What combination worked for you when did it?
@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty I like it best with Paul Mitchell The Conditioner. I * think * I may have used it with Shea Moisture (😱, I know) Curl Primer as well. I also find I have to be generous with the custard.
@@WhatTheKink Thanks so much! I may revisit this one since you mention it's capable of performing like the Jello Shot. I love having options, that fit the criteria.
Your hair I’ve never seen a curl pattern like this tbh, but omg I love it😍😍😍😍
Curly Magic is truly magic🤣 I’ve been using UFD w I Create Hold and love the results but I do get flaking…just ordered Jello Shot to see what happens. Your hair looks beautiful and I LOVE how patience and attentive you are with your hair. Like an artist💕
Hey Jos! I bet you're going to love the UFD+Jello Shot combo. I am curious to know if your application with UFD and ICH is incorporating too much ICH? How many pumps do you typically use of ICH?
@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty so I use about two pumps on the sections I deem as my “low porosity” sections. Thats in the back of my head. Maybe I need to fall back to one pump? ICH is a good enough holding gel, and my hair isn’t that long, only about shoulder length when wet.
@@josryder7841 That's too much ICH. It will turn into a brick using that much. Two pumps is enough for most heads of hair. Most times even one pump. Someone with high density long hair may be okay with one pump per section if the hair is split into quarters.
I used Jell-O shot and the doux mousse as a topper once and it was great for a day or two but after that it was flake city!!
LOVELY!
Your tips have helped me master my WnG! I love how just changing product or technique can make such a dramatic difference in my final looks!
Definitely trying EcoSlay when I run out of gel!
Awesome darling, so happy to hear all of this.
I've tried this gel once without a leave in. Needless to say it was not a success. I'll be trying out your technique and product combinations. Thanks for sharing! 😊
Thank you for all you do! My hair in my profile pic is because of you! (Low porosity vids changed my life!)
Awww thank you so very much my dear. It truly blesses my heart to know this.
Thank so much for this video. It so helpful to view the application process and styling combinations. Well noted!! I currently did a second big chop but still find this valuable. I have been using the jelly shot for my hair and do like the results. At this stage I do like the crunchiness. Still next time..
My pleasure! And it blesses my heart to know it was valuable to you even at the current stage you are with your hair.
thanks for sharing! i used to use ufd curly magic + Jello shot & loved the hold.. however, I found the gel required a lot of smoothing and additional product to smooth down frizz. It didn’t “smooth” out my hair as well as other gels I’ve used. Not sure if this was just user error. I may revisit this product because I truly did love the hold & the way my hair evolved over the week with this product combo!
Yes, it is a wonderful combo. Perhaps you will work out the kinks and get it the way you want. Best to you!
@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty thank you!!
Your hair looks beautiful. Can you help me clear up something? What's the difference between the ecoslay gel and the eco styler gel... are they from the same family/company... did the eco styler come out with a better gel (ecoslay)? Thanks 🙂
Hey Abena, I haven't seen you in quite some time. You look really good and your hair has just flourished. Good job. So, these jelly shots elongate the hair? I definitely need to try it because I never do a wash and go for fear of the shrinkage. I only do twist outs. Thanks for all the research you do for products.
Hi again Lizzie! It's been my pleasure to share. Yes, Jello shot can give you a great hold and potentially elongate your curls if you do not go to heavy with the application. Going heavy will yield the opposite effect, tighter/shorter curls.
Have u done the 1st wash & go on a client with 4C hair, if so was there less shrinkage. I need a product that leaves my hair flat. I want less volume more length 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for your reviews and demonstrations!
Beautiful result! I already use the curly magic but I use it with I create hold with a little bit of papaya slip. I just ordered the Jell-O shot because of the great reviews.
The current issue I am having is the back shrinks up so much after it dries. My hair is shoulder length after shrinkage. Any tips on how to keep the back stay elongated after it dries? I am wondering if my sleep routine is causing this.
Your curls are still beautiful and long. Wow, I never try the Jello Shot. I do love the UFD Curly Magic. I'm going to have to try that one. Great video. Thank you
You're welcome, I hope you have a great outcome!
Love x 3 your curls with this product combination! I’d love to see how it looks on your new style. Thx for sharing! 😊👍🏽
I always enjoy watching your videos! I never do wash and gos because I get so many single stand knots on that style because my hair is very tightly curled. Do you have any tips for avoiding single stand knots in a wash and go for tightly curled low porosity hair? Thank you so much 💐
Hi Joy! I achieve wash and go on plenty of clients with tightly coiled low porosity hair. The single strand knots most likely occur because of the condition of the ends of your. If they are thinned out and split they are more likely to cause tangles and knots.
Nine days and your hair still looked beautiful! During your application process, it looks like you don't have sopping wet hair as I see with other BGC stylists. Do you have clients whose scalps are irritated by UFD?
Hey Joy, thank you! My hair is soaking wet since I just rinsed conditioner out. The difference is there is no need for me to add additional water after applying Curly Magic to my hair. It's pretty common when the surface texture of the hair is smooth, also referred to as "silky" If you add more water hair like mine, the water and the product splash to the floor. It's such a waste. I recall one client who did not like the feel of UFD on her scalp initially but eventually she actually loved it. However, there are people who experience irritation because of some ingredient they have a reaction. If you are experiencing an irritation you would do well to research the ingredients to determine what you are reacting to.
Do you prefer the UFD Jello Shot combo or UFD I create hold combo? Hold (not ICV). I like Jello Shot but it was way to stiff for me. No movement at all. Going to try again with much less product. Thanks for the demo.
Can you try Alikay Naturals gel? Its black owned and all natural. I believe its sold at walmart and target
Yassssss I am so glad you used it!!!!
Yes! Thank you for suggesting this product to me.
Anytime! This product application is superb!!!! I swear curly magic is a great base! Thank you for sharing the various techniques!
You look fabulous with glasses.
Thanks so much for the video. I love the outcome and product combination. Your hair is beautiful.
Awww thank you so very much! I truly appreciate it.
Hope your well, thanks for the video 😘
Thank you 💕💕💕
On the hubs YT bc this vid popped up SO fast!! Abena - I have a jar of this sitting in the fridge (it was TOO hard for me to deal with so I was in limbo for a bit RE: it), & I was about to do a flaxseed gel base & try it again toDAY!!! TYTYTY for this vid!!!! I needed YOUR input, so now I’m excited!
Hey darling! I am so happy to hear this video sounds like it came right on time for you. I would love to hear about your results from your most recent wash day using this combo.
@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty hijacking hubs once again to update & ask a Q. I tried the combo, &&&& NO FLAKES, w/excellent definition. I am on day 3 & it’s = in looks to d1. Now since I was heavy handed w/UFun’s bc I felt it wasn’t “laid” enough, could that be bc I didn’t let ANY time lapse between applying that & the JShot? I’m thinking that the way you apply UFun to your whole head THEN after do the JShot application may be a key point I missed. Thoughts? BC I will force myself to wash this perfection in a few more days & it would help to know I can make my outcome a less “producty” feeling. It’s not bad, but I’d prefer it less.
My favorite gellll
Your hair is so beautiful. 💕I have similar hair to you. Do you get single strand knots?
Not single strand but I did experience a knot at the end of a curl while styling the 3rd washngo with this product. I recently shared a portion of that video on my Instragram/Facebook Stories hoping it would be of help to others.
What shampoo and conditioner was used for this set? The conditioner got so creamy 😍
How has the UFD/Jello Shot combo held up in high humidity? And thanks for sharing!
My mother uses this combo in Florida and it lasts 7 days for her. She likes to garden so she’s outside frequently
@@jjayjae_ thank you
@@kjeneen79 You’re welcome. I hope the combo works out well for you if you decide to try it :)
Yeah as Mad World Productions says, it does pretty well in humidity.
Beautiful hair! Do you refresh each morning?
Your hair is beautiful...love a loose natural
Hi! How do you protect your hair at night?
Im buying that.
I just ordered this, but I got the pouch. I didn’t see that jar on the site. And did they change the formula? Mine didn’t seem as thick as the other reviews I watch.
I still have some in the original jar in the fridge. Have not needed to open the pouch yet.
Greetings Abena, I absolutely love wash n go’s, however; I noticed that my ends take a beating when I get my quarterly trims. I usually allow my hair to air dry as I hate that crunchy feeling I get when I sit under the dryer. How can I retain my length? Do you offer consultations?
When you say beating, what are you referring to? I hadn't got my ends trimmed in over a year (I big chopped post quarentine last year in May 2020) and I JUST went to a stylist last month. I did wash n gos the entire year after I big chopped. The stylist actually said my ends were fine. I went THINKING that something was wrong with them. I did have some breakage because of over bleaching and had to get a corrective cut but she said my ends were actually in tip top shape. Keep in mind that blunt ends doesn't necessarily mean healthy ends.
Hi Ebony, I do virtual consultations. My information in the description box. Wearing a wash and go as the go to hair style can be a wonderful way to retain length. There are most likely other factors contributing to the condition of your ends that lead to the cuts you have been getting in order to maintain your hair.
@@braelynnblue I’m saying all the inches had grown within the quarter were being cut off, keeping me at the same length. I recently had my cos teacher cut out all of the damage that was there but now I’m scared to go back to the hair style I love.
@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty thank you. I’ll be in touch❤️
What is your hair type 3c? Or you high or low porosity ? It’s so pretty 😍
I have low porosity concentrated in the crown. High porosity along the front hairline.
Does this help with shrinkage with 4c hair 👀
Beautiful goddess!
I don't do well at washngo go
What has your experience been with styling the wash and go? You may be surprised at the outcome if you had it done by a tight curl specialist who can show you what your hair is capable of when done using salon quality products during a hydrate and define service.
@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty my hair doesn't fall as loose as yours, so I don't kno if the longated method would work for me, but I like to compensate that with volume. But my hair needs good elasticity . I don't like puddings because they weigh my hair down and they are crazy expensive.
I think for me, like you, gels do work better, but I need some kind of light' leave in to eliminate the hardness. Also I have mostly 3c with some right side 3b and have always worn my hair in a round cut for the big' look, so learning how to do each section takes a learning curve with different texture and length.
@@eagleeyegordon9368 she has type 4 hair… the right gel and application combos work wonders for elongation.
@@kxlot79 mmmm, I have type 3c hair and my curls droop as early as hers. She looks like a solid 3c to me, just a very healthy' 3c
@@eagleeyegordon9368 Actually, so many of us wearing our hair in it's natural state have a variety of textures to deal with. As I have mentioned throughout my video demonstrations, the crown and hairline are where I experience most challenges, they require additional attention. And that is the case with many of my clients as well. Regarding the number and letter system you referenced (3C, 3B) it has no bearing on how well your hair responds to styling products. Having a thorough process for hydrating the hair and techinques used with applying the products is what makes the difference. You can see examples of the diverse clients I display on my IG and Facebook pages. Different textures styled with the same styling products.
I would recommend you research fast hair growth shampoo to double hair growth.
I would suggest you check out fast hair growth fortified shampoo to double hair growth.
I don’t like strong fragrances so I won’t try it.
I really don't like strong fragrances either, however the the jello shot does not have a strong scent to me. It's barely noticeable imo
