Anyone wear their hair NaKeD???

[Kurly K]

Ok..I like wearing my hair naked (productless) after my co wash....i love how fluffy it is and how soft the curls are, i also experience less shrinkage...but im afraid it may be damaging.....any insight on this????

 

[fluffylocks]

I've done it before, but i dont think i got any damage or dryness because i was leaving alot of conditoner in and not rinsing it 100% out...I used to use mane n tail....

But anyway, if you are rinsing it all out and worried, then maybe you coud try a light spritz of oil on your hair, that wouldnt mess with any of the softness or fluffyness IMO, just help to keep the moisture in and preent your hair from drying out.

But bump for better answers.

I have been wearing my hair "naked" since 2001...briefly tried LHCF moisture moisture moisture in 2003...but returned to being "naked" and continue to wear it that way. The only difference between you and me, is my hair is braided or twisted when I wear go productless. When wearing it out, I need some slip to be able to comb it so I use S-Curl. But I have only worn it our about for about 3 weeks in the last 19879878769186 years, so "naked" is generally the way I roll.

ETA: Like you, I get my moisture from washes (shampoo then conditioner or just CWs).

Heck no, my hair would be HAM. Kudos to you, though.

 

[JustKiya]

I did when my hair was shorter. Now, if I don't wanna cry when it comes to detangling time, I can't.

 

[xxBlackRosexx]

I think it would be ok if you just co wash on a regular basis.

 

[ladylibra]

going naked isn't gonna hurt your hair as long as your hair is healthy. i used to do it all the time, sometimes still do just to let my hair "breathe."

 

[frankie]

When you say naked...u mean naked naked? Like you wash/cowash/condition etc. then rinse everything out completely. <---No. Sometimes I don't rinse out ALL the conditioner and don't add anything else to my hair. But that's as naked as it's been.

If you are a frequent co-washer, I think you'd be fine because your hair is getting the moisture it needs regularly.

I was just thinking that if my hair was healthier I could get away with this.

But I need products for moisture and shine, because without any products it would be a mess.

 

[MekyakaKinkerbelle]

As LL mentioned, going naked gives hair a great break.

I do it from time to time. I did it all the time when my hair was shorter. Then in-between stage, not so much, but I did revisit from time to time. Now, I do it once in a while, just to let the breathe.

 

[KEWLKAT103]

I can't go naked adn I cowash about everyday. It's soft and nice for the first couple of hours and then get's dry.
I have to put at least a bit more con when I get out or a leave in.

 

[GeorgiaCutie]

Couldn't do it with my hair.

You know what?! we are hair twins.
I love wearing my hair naked, my curls are sooo juicy and I have way less shrinkage. I tried using gel this past saturday and I hated it...

 

[SunnyDelight]

I love NaKeD hair. It feels so light and fresh. I only go for one day though.

Have to agree with the less shrinkage comment. I find that when I let my hair alone, it shrinks much less. I do not know why. I generally do not use styling products. Once in a while I'll try one out. But I usually hate it. Gels are especially horrible.

Yes, I wear my hair naked sometimes. It doesn't harm it at all.

the closest to naked that I get is airdried with a little oil ran through...today it's grapeseed but I've used jojoba, evoo, and coconut too...

 

[msa]

I generally wear my hair naked if I wash and go because it would take too long for my hair to dry if I left conditioner in it and I like my hair to be dry by the time I leave the house. It's just fine for me. I think because I get all the moisture I need from my conditioner, my hair is still soft later in the day.

 

[Kurly K]

thanx for the feedback and yep i meant naked naked i rinse eveything out....glad this wont b damaging bcuz its my fav!!!!

[1QTPie]

Not naked dry, it starts to turn into a mess. But I can do naked wet. I do that all the time.

 

[QT]

The only way i would be able to pull this off is if i twisted my hair and allowed it to air dry. But ahhh a wash and go on this head w/ no products........ funny.

 

[vestaluv1]

Nope! My hair looks a mess 'naked'.

 

[Irresistible]

I can never ever ever never go Naked, my hair literally wraps around itself!

Yeah at least give me some OIL!

 

[lilsparkle825]

if not then not i said the cat.

 

[Ms Lala]

Yeah this is the closest I get. I cowash, leave some condish in then seal w/oil. I guess that' s not naked hugh! My naked hair is a dry mess w/n a couple of hours.

 

[justNikki]

Nope...I at least have to have some oil or a little conditioner. When my hair is completely naked, it's sooooo dry. Nope, won't be doing that.

I've only been completely naked 3 or 4 times since going natural and that was just to take photos of naked hair.

That's how I'm able to do it. I wash in twists (or braids) and air-dry in twists (or braids). In other words my hair is ALWAYS in either braids or twists when I'm doing this naked thing. I can't remember the last time I washed my whole head when it was not braided or twisted.
