Frequent/Daily Co-washers or washers

[Gemini350z]

To all of you ladies who tend to wash/co-wash frequently or daily. What styles do you usually sport? braid outs? twist outs? buns?

I am starting to co wash daily, and can not continue to rollerset every day.

What styling methods do you usually use?

Thanks

 

[Je Ne Sais Quoi]

I either let it free, do my scarf thing (see profile pic) or put it in a little bun. I cowash just about everyday

Buns 80% of the time. Wash and go's 15%, rollersets the other 5%.

How do i try a wash and go, sorry if this is a stupid question. What products/methods should I use?

I pull mine back and dry with a scarf tied around it, and then I put it in a bun.

most of the time i pull mine back into a ponytail and do a two stranded twist. in the morning i take it down, get dressed while it dries a little bit, then put it back into a ponytail. my hair airdries thicker so i don't mind the ponytail.

once every two weeks i do a rollerset but i've gotten hair lazy so i've cut back on that

 

[DreadlockedLady0171]

I co-wash every day.
My hair is not long enough to do anything but pull it back into a puff with a scarf.

I cowash Mon-Thurs. I slick that sucker back into a bun

Can relaxed heads do wash and go?! What if you are relaxed semi bone straight? What products should you try to do a wash and go?

 

[FlawedBeauty]

I usually just put it in a braid or two big twists, pin up and let air dry. cover it before bed then leave it that way until i wash again the next day.

I'm relaxed and wash n go about 4 days out of the week. I use products like creamy leave in and John Frieda's Dream Curls to scrunch and define. Check my fotki for pics of it.

 

[Determined22]

I co-wash every other day, at night, so normally I airdry using the scarf method. In the morning my hair goes into a bun.

 

[MizAvalon]

Mostly buns. I don't bother with anything else if I'm going to be CW again the next day anyway.

 

[Dogmd]

I CW every day and put it in a ponytail if I am wearing a hat or slap it into a bun if I am going to work.

You get in the shower and instead of using any shampoo, you use conditioner to massage your scalp and hair. You can detangle your hair under running water , then rinse. I usually then jump out of the shower and apply my moisturizing leave-in and coconut or vatika oil and them smooth my hair back into a bun with my fingers. Very quick and simple (KISS).

 

[EMJazzy]

My daily hairstyle is a fresh wash n' go.

 

[SouthernTease]

I wear wet pin-ups 90% of the time
Rollerset and pin up once a month now.

 

[Leslie_C]

It depends on my mood....some weeks I can cowash daily or every couple of days and air dry in a ponytail, which I usually put in a bun eventually or overnight Ill do a single braid and wear a braidout pony the next day. Other times when Im not lazy Ill simply wash and DC twice a week followed by a rollerset under the dryer. The latter looks a lot better.

Pwahahaha. I know that's right!


I am glad for this thread, though. I have been wondering about this as well.
While I'm on vacation, I think I will try to wash n go for a few days and see how it goes.

I Wash and go, bun it, banana clip it or claw clip it up

Have u noticed any breakage from the banana clip? I want to do that but Im afraid it will cause breakage from putting it on wet hair. I used to get breakage from putting those stretchy rubberband type headbands in my hair wet and the stretchy ones that have teeth like a come. Now Im extra careful...
