How To: Wash N Go on Short Natural Hair / TWA
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this tutorial, I'll be showing you how I achieved my life saving wash n go. This was one of the first styles that actually worked for me during my twa phase after sooo many tries. Between the defined curls and the illusion of a tapered cut, this was an easy choice for a go to style.
Products and Tools used:
Olive Oil Eco Styler Gel
Creme of Nature Perfect Edges
Karen's Body Beautiful Leave In Conditioner
water
hair clips

Thank you so much for this video. I gathered up the courage to big chop just a few days ago and all of the wash and go videos I was trying would not work with my hair until I watched yours. Your video gave me confidence to rock my new TWA for the first time at work today and feel beautiful with my natural curls. Thank you.

Thank you so much for posting this video! My hair is usually pretty frizzy after I wash it, and this tamed it a lot. This is my favorite wash and go!
I love this tutorial. I just did my big chop so I will be doing this as soon as I take my braids out :)
This is the best wash & go; simply, easy and super fast....
I just did another big chop and I can't wait to do this to my hair!!! Love it!!
Thanks for the tip regarding the nape. I hated looking like I didn't have a neck. The bobby-pins are the perfect trick to provide a finished look, while not having to cut your hair. Thanks again!

That is not why white people hair grow the way it does. It's easier for straight hair to come out of the follicle vs curly hair. Less malipulation allows for your hair to not break as much. Also less split ends. They get their hair cut way more than us. Hair no matter what texture grows at an average rate of 6 in a year. We don't have a problem with our hair growing, it's retaining the length that seems to be the issue with women of color. 🙄🤦
Great tutorial. I'm new to natural hair. This will definitely be a go to style for me!

OK so why is it called wash and go. Clearly natural hair is a lot of work. Why didn't someone tell me that I'd have to do all this work.

+tameikarose because it doesn't have to dry to leave out the house. Of course the technique varies by person and hair type. If this is too much, try finding a way to simplify it and make it convenient for you. For me, this is very convenient compared to the other styles I do that have to dry for 24 hrs or require heated drying which adds a lot of time to the overall process.

Right; this is too much. What I do is actually a wash and go. I hop in the shower wash my hair like I do normally. My hair becomes wavy/curly in the water. I pat dry than I get some gel, rather it's the one in this video or some other type of gel that will really hold the curls together; when it drys. I part the hair like she does it, depends on the style. And I am off. Well after getting on my clothes. Takes me 4 mintues or less to do my hair!

does this work with every natural hair type ?
@Frequentfinder
8 жыл бұрын
What this does is define your curls. So if your curl pattern is coily, this should come out similar. If your curl is looser, your curls will be looser. Still pretty. If you have kinky hair(like z), it wouldn't curl it up but it'll define your kinks and will still be pretty imo. After being unsuccessful at wash n gos for so many years, I learned that different techniques and products work for different people and textures. It's worth a try to see how it turns out no matter what your texture is. It might be what you've been waiting for.
so co-wash -> leave-in conditioner -> water -> gel?? is that correct? Also can anybody recommend an edge controller?? the creme of nature one doesn't work for me :( What type of hair do you have?

I wrap my hair in a satin scarf at night. In the morning, I use a spray bottle to spray my hair with water. I don't have to touch it. It just brings it back to life after about 10 minutes. Another thing I do in the morning sometimes instead of spraying my hair is fluff with my fingers. I don't rake. I just use my hands to raise my hair. And that works too. But I like to do water most of the time because it's more hydrating.

It looks cute on you, but I'm sorry, but that is not my idea of wash and go. It's still too much work and too many products. I cannot imagine going through all that whenever I want to leave the house. I just saturate my hair (or co-wash) while I'm in the shower, put on a hair band (to intercept water drippage), and then massage the Eco gel through it while it is still very wet, and finger-style it. It really isn't all that complicated.

Shri V. Thank you! Im happy that works for you. It doesn't work for me. I have to do a little more but this is still so much quicker than doing a twist out, braid out, perm rod set, pretty much any other style I like to do. So I still consider it to be a wash n go because I wash it, add product, and I don't have to wait for my hair to dry to leave out the house.

Christian's Grandma Make sure your hair is really wet when you put the cream on because otherwise it can sit on your hair and you don't need that much either maybe a dime to quarter size per section. The whiteness should disappear after it dries.
