This is the right time to play in our hair and try different things. Your wash and go is cute even though wash and go are really more like wash, wait...wait for it.. wait again.. okay go
DiscoveringNatural perfect description
Lol and still waiting 🤣
DiscoveringNatural 😂😂😂😂😂 so true!
Kyairah Crawford 💖💖
Devera Robinson 💖
All of us with real 4C hair appreciate you!!😂🤎🤎 Finally a video that states real 4C that I don’t have to squint or question if my hair is the same lol 🙌🏾
I agree with your comment. I believe those girls that put up natural hair videos are deceiving because my question is why don't they admit the truth and be specific about their hair type? They just waste people's time and want us to subscribe because they know we also would love it if our curls were a bit looser so it's as if they use that against us well I should say for the weak ones.
Remain blessed dear 🤗🤗
Always liked her. Some natural channels are so annoying I speed through but i watch her videos all the way through.
Ayeeeee👌🏾❤️❤️❤️
Same here..and I let the ads run
The only type of energy i need around me 🥰❤️
We love you Jenn.....and Mrs. LaToya Ebony 🥰🥰🥰😘
More like wash, stay, get married ,have kids, THEN go 😂😂
Lmao
😅😅😅😂😂😂 you just don't go
Girl, do you REALLY ever "go"? That is the real question!
M M :sis I started following “iamblackgirlcurls” and I wash apply UFD in shower maybe apply another gel..sit under dryer 45 min and let rest air dry...win win win🤷🏽♀️👏🏾👏🏾
😂
I feel we all need to support our REAL 4C ladies! And unsubscribe from those other natural hair channels.
Thank you Jenn for being REAL I am a new subscriber 🥳🥳
I wish you had real 4c in the title cause I’m tired of the 4cfishing but come on coils 😍😍😍
GIRLLLLL Let me go change the title real quick! brb
Facts! Lol
I totally agree!!!
4C hair runs in different patterns and does have curls. Some are Visible while Others are Not Visible at all unless _(don't laugh😆)_ you look really up close or through a Magnifying Glass or Microscope. I don't know where the hair typing Community get that all4C hair has zero 0 curl Pattern.
Now I do see how a lot of people mistakenly call their hair 4C when it's actually mixed with other types.
Her hair looks 4c to me. 4c doesn’t mean your hair is coil-less. I am not sure when 4c became no coils. What in the world should it look like??
Turned out really cute!
PS: Loosely section your hair in mini pineapples using satin scrunchies and a bonnet for nighttime (just to avoid tangles for next wash day and to avoid having hair products on the pillow you lay your face on. We don't want to cause acne exacerbation honey lol)
Also lol, another tip is to apply and work in your leave in conditioner while in the shower and then covering your hair with a plastic bag so it can truly soak in and give more definition. Then apply gel once you're out of the shower .
I find that's less messy for me.
You did well 🤗
Good tips! I need to buy a lot of satin scrunchies. Thanks for sharing.😊
Chala Brooks and they're affordable on Amazon too. You're welcome😊
Great recommendation! I find banding give me a headache. Doing 2 ponypuffs at the top of my head works for me.Before I leave the house I pull it back into 2 low ponypuffs for a bit to make it fall back down. Sometimes I leave the bottom section out if it’s gotten a bit too stretched.
Thanks for the tip NacRee. Jenn, great job! I'm looking to do this soon with NacRee tips.
@@nacreea.690Okay! I'll check them out. Thank you!
Wow. She actually does have 4c hair. And this style is very cute. Frames her face well. Beautiful hair.
I have 4b/4c hair and I used to do the soaking wet method (Anthony Dickey), but I found I get way more definition and moisture starting with damp hair. To make sure you get definition you have to do one part that’s very important of Anthony Dickey’s method however. In the shower put in lots of conditioner and water and work it all through. the conditioner and water will cause the curls to clump and form, but you have to soak the hair and let the conditioner take hold. Working the conditioner through while adding water will help the water get into the hair. You can also shake the hair during this process to get the curls to pop. Wash the conditioner out when complete. Then get out of the shower and let the hair dry some some so that it’s damp. This way when you apply the products they won’t have to compete with all this dripping water. Apply your product on damp hair, respraying with water for slip when needed or desired. And boom. Definition!!! And you shingle some but it won’t take so much time.
Its weird bc i saw StarPuppy do this to her hair a few days ago and then i saw your thumbnail and thought ‘did she do the same thing :o’ and then you mentioned her!! Youre both beautiful ❤️
Thank you! Love her ❤️
Maybe that's how I got recommended to this channel because I love StarPuppy (AWAYYYY) but I definitely subscribed because her delivery is on point here and her hair is similar to mine. (God bless us when YT will start to charge us per subscription, I love supporting the sisters!
4Knewt don’t give them any ideas 😂😂
For the people in the back.. Do you see the definition?!?! 😱 wooo lawd I need to woman up and attempt a wash and go. That black girl magic is shining through in full force! Much love to you and yours Jenn!
Move! your in the way I can't see
@@phylliskimani7626 oops! Oh my bad! My gam gam always said I had my father's big head 😂😆
Refreshing to see real 4C hair. Love your excitement!
Finally someone who's hair ACTUALLY looks like mine 😭😍
This is a great tutorial!! When I was a loose natural I gave up on the wash and go. The method is too time consuming for a style that lasts one day. I gave up on definition on my 4c hair as well. My kinks don’t need definition. I guess that’s why I am now locd. Having locs I can finally wash my hair,oil and condition and really go. No more spending hours on my hair.
Sounds like a dream lol.
Yaaaassssss Sis ❤️ now that I have locs, I can do a REAL wash and go!
Jenn Jackson you may want to join the loc family one day! It’s pure hair freedom for people with kinky hair. I wish I started locs sooner.
@lisette: Do you retwist the roots or are you free-forming ?
Perma Frost I retighten my roots with a tool and method called interlocing. My locks are too small for a retwist.Also my hair stays longer with interlocking my roots. I have microlocs not traditional locs.
Oh wow, it’s gorgeous! It turned out so well. I attempted my first 4c wash and go a few weeks ago, but I didn’t use any gel. My hair rolled up almost back into my scalp from the shrinkage. I also air dried it and that took FOREVER. I’ve never seen my hair so well defined though. I didn’t even know I had perfect spirals. Next time I will definitely try gel and heat.
Girl that 4C hair will shock you!
@@Ogechime I just used leave in conditioner and a heavy curl cream because that was all I had at the time.
I love shaking my hair like that. 😩 the feel. The freedom. To be free! ❤️
Looks beautiful J.
You mentioned starpuppy
My heart skipped a beat!
Love your work too 🤗🤗
Thank youuuu❤️ love her
It turned out really nice. 10:24 I was so relieved and glad you decided to be generous with the water and spray your hair down. At the beginning of the vid, the water used was not enough. Sopping wet hair is the best foundation especially for wash and go’s (as annoyingly messy as it is) and that made your leave in glide through and the process quicker. ✨
I like the fact that she is embracing her true texture with also having realistic expectations. This is refreshing to see a 4Cer actually accepting their true texture.
Beautiful REAL 4c hair😍😍
I looooovvvveeee how hyped up you get when you’re doing your hair 💛
You may be the most real and relatable when it comes to working our 4c hair. The wash and go was real and yes the pineapple before bedtime does not work for me either. Way to go Jen!
Band your hair loosely in small mini buffs. This will stretch your roots and show more of your length as well as keep your ends defined. This turned out great!!
Come through coils!!! That's so similar to my pattern, hard to get them to come out and play. But when they do 🔥🔥🔥 black hair is all the way magical
To maximise on clumping Jen it’s best to run a comb through at the pre-poo phase before shampoo. I have 4b/4c hair and I learned that when you run a comb through at the DC phase you are combing out the definition because our hair clumps with a good deep conditioner.
@Melinated you are right. My hair used to look like Jens in a wash and go but these days I have super defined curls with hang time. Maybe my hair is 4b? I use Uncle funky curly magic or KCCC. I always detangle as the first step before shampoo. I use a clarifying shampoo which does not dry my hair. I am amazed as I didn’t know my hair could get so curly.
I also don’t have to spend too much time shingling and there is no need for me to twirl the strands. Clumping is easy.
The back of my hair (from mid ear to my neck) has a totally different texture/curl pattern from the rest of my hair. Wash and Go's are a no go for me.
Me too I have all the 4 a-c and 3c. I look crazy
Same. My front is 4a and my back is 4b. My hairline is 3c. Also, my hair is different lengths and different shrinkage levels. So it dries weird.
Yesss ma’am!!! This is why I love being in the kinky club!! Even though wash and gos are a no for me, this was so pleasurable to see. next time I’d definitely put some oil on your hands, slightly rub it down a medium sized section, and do mini pineapples all around your head. It keeps the hair from matting up, and stretched.
Thank you for the tips! Will try it ❤️
This is why I stick to Mielle. I know we were trying to cancel them, but their products are bomb. Leave in conditioner, curl cream.and cooling custard gives definition to my 4c hair
Omg! Same! The type 4 twisting cream and leave in is perfection. It smells so good, defines and moisturizes like a dream.. I don’t know.. I feel torn 😔😩
@@KammyKamzz girl, and the products last. I've had my twisting creme for a year. It's so moisturizing! I love it! I refuse to give it up. Cause these products aren't cheap
I discovered Mielle last month! Game changer 🤯!!! Im currently using just the conditioner, but will be switching to the leave in and others. Shea moisture is not doing anything for my hair!
@@KammyKamzz Try the Mane Choice or Camille Rose, people genuinely seem to love those brands. Because to dig up someone’s order form to find their personal number, and to have your HUSBAND call this woman’s phone because she did a review you didn’t like? That’s way past unprofessional.. IDC if Jesus himself makes that s**t, they can kick rocks
Looking fab-u-lous ! Just sleep, no need to pineapple. Use the steam in the shower to revive your curls in the morning. The curls will bounce back after you step out the shower.
I love how you say Deep Conditioner 💕💕💕.
Important step for our hair and it just sounds so cute when you say it 🤩
LOL thanks x
Me too.....its more sounds like ur saying "dip condition" ....the accent. Love it.
Naturally Dunn I love it too😂❤️❤️❤️❤️
Woooooowwwww, this came out real cuuuutteee, girl! Go 4C hair!!!!!
I absolutely love eco slay. I’m on my 5th day wash n go and my hair is still defined and shiny. I have learned with my hair I don’t need soak n wet hair it makes products slip right off so I keep my her wet/damp and work the products through and got amazing definition. Your hair turned out beautiful.
"I'm losing my will to live." LMAO it turned out great tho. I'm gonna try it, but you MUST show us how you sleep on it and maintain it for a few days. btw so glad you shouted out Starpuppy. You, her, and Latoya Ebony are the only CZcamsrs I've found with REAL 4C hair like mine.
Chizi duru is another good 4c CZcamsr
I second Chizi and also NaturallyHigh and westafricanbaby
nicely done! totally worth getting a diffuser for the blow dryer because those roots NEVER dry on their own. So glad I found you channel.
I tried this for the first time a few days ago... I did about half of my head, and thought nope. Between the shrinkage, the energy, and the amount of gel I used, it wasn't worth it. I just then proceeded to wash my hair.
Omg nooooo! I felt the same way too half way but i didn’t want to quit for you guys lol.
@@JennJackson ahah thanks for trying for us. But your results were definitely much better than what I would have gotten. It looked really cute and suits you well.
I gave up on wash and go for that same reason, too time and gel consuming, the time I tried a have up and did a high Puff instead
you just need to set it with a hooded dryer and use better quality products. My type 4 hair lasts for 7 days when it's done properly. Check out @iamblackgirlcurls
i feel u girl that is me now it just looks a damn mess ugh lol its my actual current situation but i give up im about to wash my hair. But i like how hers came out,i'll try once more during the week but right now its wash time!!
It turned out beautifully! 👏🏾👏🏾 And I agree, the racking method gave much nicer results.
Please do a video on the upkeep, it’d be great to see how it evolves over time.
Already in the making 😌
I am doing your 6 month protective hair challenge. So during most of the challenge my hair has been in box braids which I’ve done myself. I enjoy watching your videos. I love this wash-n-go on you. I have about another couple of weeks until my take down. I am definitely going to try this wash-n-go technique. Shalom.
i find that the best way to do a wash and go (4c, 4b, 4a, etc.) is to wash, deep condition, then go straight to stylign all while in the shower! on soaking wet hair you'll find that u won't use as much product and after ur done give it a good shake and your 4c curls will be popping!
Thank you x
I’m embarrassed to say I’m some years into my natural hair care journey & this is my first wash & go tutorial 🤦🏽♀️ However, I’m SUPER excited to try this & see what comes of it! This looks too cute!!! I love it! My hair is much shorter so I’m nervous about how it will come out but we shall see.
Shout out to my girl Verna for leading me here.
You were way to cute. The excitement from trying something new and succeeding was precious. The hair turned out beautiful.
Girl definitely a diffuser, I am new to this and also purchase a hooded steamer from Amazon it does miracles.
I like shingling (that's what you initially did to your hair when you twirled the individual coils) my hair, eventhough it can feel like forever! It's meant to give our coily hair definition. What you did to The right side was great too. My end/final results is always BOMB for me! Yours is too hun👍
My thing with trying a w&g is that you (general) spend so much time cleansing your hair beforehand only to pile all of this product on it for a style that lasts maybe 3 days on 4b/4c hair and then you have to spend more time cleansing your hair again! Just...wow, so much time. But it came out really beautiful!
I love how your hair turned out. That leave in looks so good. It's a must try for sure! I'm a mixture of 4a, 4b, and 4c. My wash and go looks very similar to yours. I just don't do them very often. I did one on Christmas Day a couple years ago right before church. The whole process from wash to style took 45 minutes max, which is very atypical for me. I used the Camille Rose Sweet Ginger Cleansing Rinse to wash my hair, and, believe it or not, I didn't use any conditioner or deep conditioner afterwards; I didn't have time. Then, I think I just used the Shea Moisture JBCO leave in as a one and done. It's crazy how the right products for our hair can work miracles. TFS!
Girl that wash&go was a resounding success, issa look girl! Those coils are beautiful. Love your videos, you seriously crack me up😅
Thank youuu! I was feeling it too! ❤️
Try putting into mini loose puffs for bed instead of a pineapple and then use afro comb to pick it in the morning.
Girl yes I did that last night! Stay tuned in how I care for this style 😝
Im not 4c.. But i know one trick that suits all of us.. Always apply your leave in.. After you rinse out your deep conditioner.. Kimberly cherell taught the girls so.. And it helps.. Soooo much 💜
Your wash and go was a success! There is no better look to me than a true 4C anything!
LMAO she said "cuz we ain't goin anywhere" 😂Love ur channel and thank you for keepin it real for the 4c ladies!
You already know! haha xx
You really encourage me about the styles for 4C Hair, love it Jenn ✨, your hair looks good!
Your wash and go is adorable!! Oh! Early in the process, when you said "I'm slowly losing the will to live." I was no more good!!! lololol I can relate. When I saw that part, I was about 1/3 of the way through installing my head of teeny, tiny, mini-twists. I think we have all been there at least once or twice!! Glad you made it!
Having 4c hair is so beautiful yall. We’re so patient and blessed and I hope y’all feel the same
Also 4c hair doesn’t really coil though lol they’re zig zags so even with gel it’s not gonna turn into a ringlet of any sort . I felt your pain though!!
There's hope for me yet! I've never seen a successful "wash n go" on 4c hair. A TRIUMPH for sure!
It is all about experimenting and practicing. You will have a fun time seeing what method works for you
I agree ☝️
see starpuppy’s channel
From despair to joy lol. Girl, you're a whole mood. 😁😁 I definitely enjoyed your wash n go journey!
yass come through with the 4c wash n go.i did one a week ago.It came out similar to yours.Love your results
I feel like I just finished watching a murder mystery and they never said who the killer is! I’m dying to see what day 3 hair looks like!!!!!
Ahhh well well well! You are going to have to STAY TUNED for new DEVELOPMENT! lmao xx
I put all my products in while in the shower. Cuts down on the messy hands and you can give a good shake while you are in there.
I like your hair and thought it was quite becoming. I had to experiment with the wash and go to find the right technique for my low porosity, low density fine hair. I've tried braid outs, twist outs, rod sets, raking, etc. and go back to the wash and go with shingling. My hair looks its best on days 3-7, then do the process again. I do refresh every other day by spraying my hair with a mixture of water, a bit of oil and conditioner.
Toni I’m also in the low porosity, low density and fine hair category. I love twist and braid outs but because of my low density and fine hair it just doesn’t give me the look I want. I end up wearing a fro-hawk or puff or putting it away under crochet braids or a drawstring ponytail.
I was laughing out loud watching this! 😂😂😂. I feel your excitement though because I had my first successful wash n go this past weekend. I also did the twirling thing on parts of my hair but it’s so time consuming that I gave up and just shingled the gel through. Tomorrow I’m going to do another one, wish me luck 🤞🏾😂. Oh and flatter hair is easier to deal with. Are you planning to pick your roots? Please post day 3 or so to show us how it looks.
Love that you said “real 4c hair” because lawd these other tutorials be like “4c” but really they have 4a
This was fun to watch ...I just tried my first wash and go too and I got auntie vibes too😂😂😂. I did about 4 pineapples at night and it was fine plus helped stretch my hair a bit
Lmao aunty vibes 😅😅
Thank you for not lying lol. Let’s say there’s 100 natural beauties on CZcams. 60 are claiming 4c when only 10 actually have it. It’s been hard out here looking for ppl to relate to.
Teach me girl! I swear we have the same hair. I’m stressed out just watching you but it turned out so cute!
Lol I was stressed at first too Lmaoo
@20:19 **Jenniferrr!!** cracks me up everytime you say that
LOL
@@JennJackson Hi, please the curls lasted for how many days? And do they not tangle?
The fact that I'm finally seeing basically my exact type of hair on CZcams..... super coils and all! Subscribed!
You definitely need a hooded dryer. The professionals (stylists) call it hydrate and define 😊 That's more accurate. It's really just another way to set your hair. The term wash and go really needs to be retired.
A wash and go exists, is Centuries Old and the term should not be retired. People just need to Stop Calling their Regular Wash Routine a Wash-n-Go. Many just don't know how to do it or realize that their Hair Type, Density & Texture will NEVER yield the Results they are looking for. Wash-n-Go is NOT for everyone. *_So many times I drench my hair in the shower or sink, cleanse it, apply all my leave-in & products on soaking hair and let it air dry while I go on about my business--that's a Wash-n-Go._* The problem is most people who try to imitate this don't have the hair type that will produce a million Curls popping after the Hair Dries and need to accept their pattern Or stick to a Regular Wash day routine.
_Those whose hair takes all day to dry may want to use a hand-dryer & diffuser or sit under the hooded dryer for 15mins then let it continue to Air dry as they go on about their day._
I agree, @iamblackgirlcurls on instagram show how to do this well. The natural hair community is just really misinformed.
@@naturalkinkycurlymarie7496 actually alot of coily hair types and so called "4C hair" can curl and coil up when it is properly hydrated. Heavy butters and cheap oils/products have everyone thinking their hair type can't be defined. I've stumbled upon so many natural hair stylists on IG like @healthyhairbyangelique, @iamblackgirlcurls, @hydrabarsalon etc etc that do type 4 hair and prove that type 4 hair can have poppin curls. CZcams has unlicensed unknowledgeable people guiding everyone in the opposite direction
ooo i like that “hydrate and define”
I like that. Hydrate and define.
I've tried this so many times but never had the patience or belief to wait for it to dry... So always washed it out! Worried about developing tangles and single strand knots too...
FINALLY!!! Someone with ACTUAL 4c hair!!!! Not 4b/4a, 4b/a on the side just 4c 😫. Not hair shaming I’m just tired of people lying.
Girl I hear you 😩
@@JennJackson it’s a struggle just came from a video where the person was getting mad because people were like your hair isn’t 4c or at least not all of it and she was getting mad and arguing with people not because her hair didn’t have 4c in it but because title of the video made it seem that all her hair was 4c. I just can’t 😩
The Black gel really defines the curl!!
To add length, you can hold the hair out and blow dry the roots with a concentrator. That way, it dries faster and maintains the definition. At night, because pineapples don't always work for us 4c's, you can band the lengths while leaving the end untouched, gently roll and tuck to preserve pattern, use barrettes along the lengths. It looks gorgeous and gives me hope. Great job!
Waitttt, I hope we getting a video seeing the evolution of this wash and go! Oh soo the raking method is the og? I'll be trying it some time💙🥺Love the curlsss😍😍
Beautiful results! For preserving the wash n go doing 2 ponypuffs at the top of my head works really. I put a satin cap on top or sleep on my satin pillowcase. Before I leave the house or during waking hours I pull it back into 2 low ponypuffs for a bit to make it fall back down. Sometimes I leave the bottom section out if it’s gotten a bit too stretched.
Consider picking up a blow dryer stand or a hooded dryer. It’s a major time saver 😆
Ok now Jenn! I am loving this. You got me wanting to do a wash n go with this combo now, because your results were gorgeous 😍😍😍
Breaking up your wash day and styling day is actually smart. I like doing this. There is no rush. You can just focus on one thing at a time and give it the attention it needs.
Absolutely!
Starting with dry hair will help with less shrinkage and for low porosity hair the product saturates easier
oh honey. Your wash n go is fabulous!! and yes you can get almost the same results doing everything in the shower for a fraction of the time. trick is to have hair soaking wet and shake real hard after applying all products. could make an interesting comparison video -hint, hint. Damn the naysayers who always want to put 4c hair in a can't do this can't do that box. 4c "curls" deserve to be on display just like any other texture. It only comes down to time, technique and preference.
I absolutely feel your pain. I called myself doing a wash and go the other week. When I tell you it was an epic fail. My hair had no definition and it was hard and flakey. Maybe it was the products I used. I used wetline extreme gel and Miele custard. You gave me hope. I'm going to try using the products you used. I love how yours turned out. Thanks girl
Thanks for watching girl! I think the products and methods (raking the products through) makes a huge difference. I also think that maybe gels that have extreme hold may not be the best choice
Jenn Jackson this is true. I absolutely love your content. I can watch your videos all day long. You give me hope and encourage me to love my 4c natural hair. You also help me to realize that just because I have 4c hair doesn’t mean that I cannot wear popping hairstyles. Thank you girl. You have a subscriber for life 😘
For my type 4 hair I find it easier to apply my leave-in in the shower. While applying I detangle and section. When out of the shower I put on a shower cap to keep my moisture inside. When I’m ready to apply my gel the process is way fast this way. I’ve tried many different techniques for drying my hair. I found that diffusing gave me the best results. I don’t pineapple either my wash in go hair doesn’t have enough weight to that so I do exactly what you did in the end.
I'm 4c as well and I dont know where I saw this but really having your hair soaking wet is what made the biggest difference for me. I mean, literally putting the product on in the shower after I just rinsed out the deep conditioner. Then shake shake shake. And yeah, the diffuser makes a big difference, because the roots never dry lol. Try that and see how it works.
That is what I saw on a Anthony Dickey method! I will give that a try!
i found that not having my hair soaked helps with shrinkage. so i keep my hair in a shower cap so and just take out each section when i get to it. this keeps the hair damp and super moisturizied. and i tend to use less leave in because mine is very water based and a little goes a long way. i tend to go heavy on the jell and defined if i use definer which causes my hair to dry crunchy with flakes. but once it’s completely dry i use oil one my stands and scalp and then my hair is soft and has not flakes. in the end the shrinkage isn’t bad and definition is there. i have 4b/a low porosity by the way
You look great I Iove the way your hair turned out. I have 4C hair and I just dread doing my hair it so thick and I had a perm and now I decided to go natural. So thank you for your videos.
I get the same wash & go affect using the Dicky method rather than the using the gel. Its faster!
Sopping wet hair out of the shower works best. I wash, condition and style all while I’m in the shower bathing. It takes me 30-40 minutes tops. You don’t need to shake. I feel my hair gets a little frizzy when I shake it.
I have finer hair and looser curl pattern but I watch your tutorials because you're such a mood and I love your personality ❤️
Aw thank you sis
I’m so glad you kept going, Jenn!! It looks awesome.
Thank you! Moral of the lesson: never give up, even when you don’t see light 💡 😅
I go outside and shake my hair too. And yes it takes forever to air dry. But it looks good!!
I do that ad well! Shaking my head while using my blow dryer gives it life
Jen ! Jennifer! U ARE THE REAL MVP😀😀😀 I died .. this entire episode.. I quit after the sec try of defining my coils and girl.. this reminded me of when I first got on the band wagon of ooo “ I’ll do a wash and go like the other girls..😏🙄 “ well seeing yr persistence and how u faithfully maneuvered was quite hilarious and encouraging at best. Thank u
Soooo I believe the style truly requires your hair be wet from the conditioning, deep conditioning phase of your wash day, using gel to capture the wet curly look you get right out of the shower, sink, etc.
Such beautiful results 😍. I just got finish watching star puppy’s wash and go video and her results were gorgeous as well. Im excited to see more 4c girls try this. Maybe it should be a trend you guys do😃! I also love your technique on how you kept racking the product through your hair until your hair clumped on its own. I saw a lot of girls complaining on star puppy’s video about how individually coiling each piece will take forever, but star puppy’s hair literally lasted for 14 days and it still looked good! So please give us an update on your progress, because I definitely want to know! 😊
I love it 🥰!! I have hair similar to you but much shorter. I do it fresh from deep conditioning, really warm water , shake it out after gel (curly magic and wetline) and then hooded dryer. Lasts a few days.
Thanks for the tip! So you do it all in the shower?
Beautiful! I love wash and go on my 4C hair. No, it does not look like 3C wash and go, our hair does not look like 3C before a wash and go. So it won’t look like 3c wash and go, it looks like 4c wash and go. Looks good when we take the time to do on soaking wet hair and rake product through like you discovered.
The reason you don’t touch it when you spray water to refresh is to avoid flakes. I fluff and get the shape before I spray. Once I spray, I avoid touching
I literally just tried this 2 days ago for the 1st time on my 4c hair & I was like you in the beginning. My hair did the same exact thing yours did in the beginning. But unlike you, I gave up @ the same exact spot u wanted to. Perseverance I guess works. You encouraged me to try again. AFTER... I take out my braids 🤣 I did some box braids & kept it pushin
Kudos tor keeping at it Jenn. I love StarPuppy too. I tried a section of my hair and it worked but they are definitely not wash n gos. I am still side eyeing.
Your results are really pretty. Great vid as usual.
Oh I just remembered I saw another 4c girl. Can’t remember who, but she put her hair in banded sections, it stretched her hair and prevented the slightly lopsided look. Rooting for you.
You can use a blow dryer with a concentrater nozzle to stretch. just use it on the roots section by section, starting from the back.
Hey Jen! The wash and go looks very cute, my hair looks very similar to yours when I do a wash and go. What I have found helpful at night is wearing a bonnet or tying a scarf with my hair as is. I find you keep your shape better with the bonnet or scarf as all you need to do is fluff the top and shape up the sides, the pineapple pushes the hair up causing to mess with it more to bring it back down. I love the wash and go, it looks very nice on you the shape is just lovely!
I luv this video. You're hair looks great!
Thank you so much!!
You hair turned out really well and so much movement! I just got my first curly cut last week and my stylist said when I take my showers in the morning to cover my hair with a plastic cap and let some moisture form from the hair. Once I'm done, just shake my hair and go.
It came out soooooo cute!!!
Make sure your hair is soak and wet.i noticed the more wet the better my curl are.I use conditioner and lots of gel
You should band it all over before bed, then unravel and spritz hair in the am. Shake, pick and go ❤️ you can also lightly sprits hair before bed and do individual twists/braids for the best braid out of your life! Old wash n go’s on my 4b 4c hair make the best braid outs
