Such a fantastic video. I was dying at your exhaustion... thanks for taking one for the team! ;-) I am curious if you were to redo the hell of 7 days washing, what it'd do if you kept with the exact same products each time. I'm also curious about night vs day washing but I'm new to you so maybe you've talked to that. I feel like there should be (post Pandemic) some mega curly hair in person conference. We are a big economic force! :)

I am so happy you made this video!!!!!!! My hair had been so damaged from the lack of moisture from not washing my hair everyday! Flash back to 4 years ago I bleached my hair, it was beautiful and I love it but I could not wash my hair every day because it was so hard to brush even with product! So I only washed my hair once to twice a week and my hair was breaking so bad and I couldn’t figure it out! I tried everything!!!!!! Different products, different techniques, but I didn’t try to wash my hair everyday (like I used to) because I thought that would make it dryer. But no my hair is so much healthier from washing everyday!!!! I have fine low porosity 2a 2b hair. Also I only use salon products!

I would not use those addition products wash done the toilet

I have occipital neuralgia, so washing my thick, long and curly hair is a lot of work every day, but it makes me feel so much better with washing my scalp and getting warm water on my overactive nerves on my head. Washing my scalp every day makes a huge difference with my migraines. I have to use a lot of product, but I live in AZ, so my hair dries pretty quickly and it keeps me cool in this very dry heat!

i have fine 2a 2b hair and have always washed my hair everyday. I'm 59 and letting my gray hair grow out. My hair is pass my shoulders in length. I love to have first day fresh hair everyday.. but that's just me..

I generally wash every other day but that doesn't necessarily mean shampooing. Sometimes I cowash or just rinse. My scalp starts to itch by the end of day 2 or beginning of day 3. My hair is in good condition and otherwise has no problems. My dermatologist said I should wash as often as I felt I needed to. As long as I wasn't losing clumps of hair or my scalp wasn't inflamed. Although I am glad I don't usually have to every day. That is a lot of work.

Do you find when you rinse with water your hair gets built up easier?? I have a very dry scalp too, but if I do oils my hair looks greasy so I can only do it as a pre-poo, even though my hair would like it to be a daily thing lol. I've been thinking about rinsing more often too though.

we love this!! Thank You for choosing All About Curls for your curly creation!

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this!!!!

I have 2c-3a curls and I was washing everyday just because of the oils. I’ve stretched it to 2-2.5 days. I love having fresh curls that I can wear down. My 2nd day hair isn’t cooperating yet. For the first time in 32 years, I actually love my natural hair. I used to tie my hair in a bun every single day of my life in my school years. It was so unmanageable. I also had no access to the information that’s so readily available now. I’m too excited to get my natural curls to their full potential to wear my hair in a bun anymore 😁

Loved this👏👏💜💜 thanks for showing the hair balls 🙏 gorgeous results!

Awesome video Janelle. Loved your Day 5 hair. It looked on point.

Thank you, Jannelle!!! I have 2a-3a hair and I tend to wash it every day because it is so fine that every single time I've ever tried to refresh my hair, it gets so tangled, frizzy, and dry that I end up just having to wash it. I hate having to do this because it takes so much time and energy, but I've literally tried so many ways of refreshing, and just none of them work. You wouldn't think someone's hair would be even drier if they didn't wash it, because it's counterintuitive, but I find that maybe washing it puts moisture back into it or something? Because my ends are so dry, but they always look better if my hair is washed. If I skip a day or two of washing my hair, I just have to put it up in a ponytail, and because of the fine density, that sort of destroys any curls that were there before, but I still do that a lot because it's a lot of work to do a full wash day every day.

I have just FINALLY stopped washing my hair everyday. I tried to break the daily wash habit off and on for years. In the last 4 months or so, I finally broke the habit, figuring out exactly what to do so my curls looked nice without daily washing. My hair was thinning due to too much washing. Now I wash on day 3, or sometimes every other day. I found when I tried to make it to day 4 it was not good. The 3rd day is my sweet spot.

It cracked me up when you said it was day 2 and you were regretting this already. 😂 I know *I* wouldn't have made it 7 days (mostly bc I'm WAY too lazy), so...... respect! 😄💜

I'm a nurse, so during covid I've been washing 5 days a week right after work with a low poo. I was generally a 1-2 cowash/week girl before that, so it's been a big change! Definitely time consuming, but it's not bad having day 1 hair all the time. "See you tomorrow to ruin another good wash day!" I FELT that! lol

Thank you - thank you for your videos! Finally I can have the curls I want but was never able to achieve! Have you done any videos on air drying? I really prefer that to diffusing, but haven’t been able to totally get my hair results to copy yours (but I can get close)

Jannelle, that was a lot of work for you. Thanks for that. For years I washed my baby fine curls everyday because I didn't know how to apply products in a way that I get another day or two. Also, having such fine hair makes it harder. I am getting better with this and can actually go 2 or 3 days. For me, it's all about the styling products that I apply after washing. Too much and I have to wash them out next day. Not enough, the same. I just tried a line that has been redone, called Alaffia. I only used the curl defining gel for wavy to curly hair, and I was really happy with results. Today is day 4, and I could go longer without washing, but I need to because of my schedule coming up. Very low priced also. Only thing...none of their products contain protein and my hair likes protein.

I’ve been looking for content like this! I have to wash more often because of my scalp condition (seb derm). I wish I could find a lazier styling/drying routine for fine low density hair though. So I don’t have to go through a full wash day so many times per week. You do get tired of it lol.

Hey Jan, thanks for the in detail video. “NOW” I know what I have been doing wrong for f*kin 2 long yrs.. 🙈😝

I’ve always had scalp issues since I was a baby. I had bad itchy dandruff and my mother always told me dandruff was a dry scalp. Turns out it’s an oily scalp. I used to use medicated shampoo to deal with it. I came to realize that daily washing solved the problem entirely. Even every other day washing makes my roots and scalp feel gross and start to itch and smell. Then I have to shampoo twice to get the excess oils out. I’ve heard other curlies say they shampoo twice on their wash day. It’s my opinion that shampooing twice every other day is the same as shampooing once every day. I use natural products (like proper natural, not just the sulfate free stuff that is still filled with chemicals). It took years to find natural products that worked for my hair. The brand I use is Oneka. I shampoo in the shower, then I apply the conditioner as though it’s a leave-in. I find that allows it to moisturize all day and not just washing it out. It also helps control frizz. My biggest problem though is that my well water is super hard. I’ve been trying some of the curly girl method this past week and it’s only been making my hair more frizzy. Also, a lot of the products for curly hair aren’t actually natural. They say they are “clean” but they are still mostly just chemicals.

You are so entertaining and informative

I don't know how NOT to wash my hair everyday. I just started the CGM a few weeks ago, but have always washed my hair every day since I was in High School. If I don't it feels greasy and gross. Especially now that I am doing CGM it's even worse - weighed down and heavy from product. Maybe I'm using the wrong stuff, but a no wash day for me is a day I dread.

I noticed with my hair that, when I gently get all knots out of my hair every night b4 bedtime, when it's time for me to do my wash routine for my hair, then hardly any ever falls out & trust me, I used to lose too much hair then desired... Please try this on a video, as you will be amazed & have more hair on your head... Now when I detangle & I come to a knOt that seems impossible, I then "gently work upwards on the strands, instead of going just downwards". My hair is low porosity & I sometimes get many of them evil suckers, so there has been times I put a drop of Argan oil, Rose hip seed oil or Jojoba oil & this has helped me... I was my hair every 5-7 days, depending on IF my head is itching, then I do my natural overnight mask, then wake up, eat, take meds, then washing routine begins...

@angelamonahan2377

3 жыл бұрын

This doesn't happen to everyone, but while in "transition", if I applied gel with aloe on my damp/wet hair, I'd get flashdrying. It feels like a ton of water pours out & your hair suddenly feels dry and rough. Also causes wet frizz, which means your end result will be frizzy too. Its very common on highly porous hair or if your hair doesn't have enough moisture (or is imbalanced). Hope this helps! 😊

Jannelle, Bounce Curl should sponsor you or at least send you their line of products. You gave them heavy kudos. I always wished to be able to wash & go like straight hair girls. There's nothing better than a freshly washed scalp. And there's nothing like perfectly bouncy & defined curls. But the time involved is too much. TOO MUCH❗ You were a trooper with a happy outlook.
