Wash And Go, To Grow And To Dazzle 2020 Challenge

[GettingKinky]

I’m loving my hair today. It’s either the Kenra conditioner or the fact that I used a TON of wetline.

Next wash I’ll have to try aphogee with a TON of wetline and see what happens.

Where can I buy wetline gel on the ground? I’ve been getting it from amazon, but that’s way overpriced. I’ve tried the grocery store and Rite-aid and so far no luck.

And does anyone know the difference between the blue and the clear wetline? I have an old jar of the blue one.

I've seen it in Target and Walmart before.

I have only ever used the clear one so I cannot speak on the difference.

Did a wash n'go today using CR Honey and EBW Hyrdation serum. I don't know how moisturizing the Honey is for my hair honestly. But this serum is the bomb!!!! It gives hold like a gel for me. I love it!

I don’t think there is truly a difference in performance, but whenever I use the blue, I find blue gelled clumps in my hair. I prefer the clear.

I tried Sallys and they only had the generic version. I decided not to get that. I’ll try target this weekend.

Target had the 17oz for around $3. You can get a 33oz tub for the about same price at Walmart.

All of that is so much better than Amazon. They sell 35oz for $17. It’s all way cheaper than KCCC, but given how much I use I want to get it for as little as possible.

Cowashed tonight and decided to try a 'braid & go' via Ina90skindofworld on IG. Eager to see how it will turn out. My hair takes 8000 years to dry so I probably won't post results until Wednesday.

 

[oneastrocurlie]

Used kcnt and kc coiling custard. Not bad. It's a little too curly. I feel like there's a fine line between perfectly defined and jheri curl.

I'm going into faux locs on Friday so this will be the last wng for about a month.

My cousin is a stylist and she does my dye for me. Usually I just let her do cornrows or a roller set. Yesterday did my color anda deep conditioning. We went the beauty supply next door and I grabbed some design essentials almond avocado leave and the black caster/flax seed eco (I’m not a fan of eco but this store was lacking in selection as far as gels went). I walked my cousin through doing a wash n go and she did a great job I’m pleased with her results. Now when she does my color she can do my wash n go

I feel the same way about KCCC. The curls are very well defined, but they look almost greasy, at least on day one.

 

[GettingKinky]

It is unrealistic that I want my wash and go hair to be shiny? Even when my hair is moisturized, it looks dry.

When it’s flat ironed it’s super shiny, I would love to have that shine when it’s curly. I tried oil sheen spray, but that didn’t really make a difference.

I’m guessing it just doesn’t reflect light well. When I’m in dim light, my hair looks great, but in bright light it looks dull. I probably just need to get used to it.

Besides Target and Walmart, I know it's also sold in CVS.

I asked a Spanish person the difference w/ the varieties. She said the Spanish labels have more details. The green is aloe vera, blue is oil, and the clear is just the regular gel. It's a Mexican product, so I guess they forgot to add the details in English.

Interesting. I have the clear version and it says it has aloe vera. It also says it has UV protection.

They all say aloe vera w/ UV protection. I guess the green (aloe vera) has a different formulation because it definitely doesn't work the same as clear w/ all of my leave-ins.

I haven't tried the blue one, yet.

I had her rake it.

I have such a hard time keeping my hands out of my hair while it’s drying. I have a compulsive need to check on my curls by touching them.

Day 2 and my hair is a little dry. I think shealoe doesn’t work so well when I apply it to really wet hair. On the weekends I let my hair air dry a bit before I apply it.

Maybe next week I’ll t-shirt dry my hair a little before I put the shealoe on.

I’m still wearing my hair out even though I’m not 100% happy with it.

 

[water_n_oil]

Results of the braid & go. Used my diy shea grease down the length of my hair and Lusti Olive Oil Gel to define the bottom half.

 

[GettingKinky]

I LOVE it @water_n_oil

Day 3. It’s starting to get frizzy (the frizz doesn’t show in the picture), but I’m wearing it to work. I think I’m over the hump of being self conscious.

It looks good. It will just get better and better

Looks great to me @GettingKinky

I’m going to wash it tomorrow. I’m going to try and stick to a wash every 3 days schedule. For some reason the picture doesn’t show the frizz. I probably need a flash to for it to show up. I had to pin the edges back because my face was framed with frizz when I woke up.
