My question is this: How do you do a wash and go when you have bone straight hair?

I'm wondering the same thing...
I tried doing it but it didn't work out for me. How do u keep your hair from getting your clothes wet or something?

My hair isn't relaxed bone straight, but after pressing it (the few times I do) it's turned itself pretty straight. I wash and go, but I always put my hair up in a bun so the ends don't show and no one can see how straight they are. I'm sitting under the dryer right now deep conditioning. I'm gonna rinse it out and put in a ponytail, and braid out the loose part. I'm hoping this will give a texturized look. If it turns out good, I'll consider turning this into a everyday style. I know how you feel hairlove. Wash and go with bone straight hair isn't very cute.

No, it's not cute at all. I once tried scrunching but only my ponytail b/c my new hair is so much more curly than my relaxed hair could ever be. Anyhow, that was mostly a disaster b/c it took so much scrunching to create the lightest wave and then was so tangly afterwards. This makes my transitioning so much harder. Boy do I wish to be able to wash and go right now so I wouldn't have to obsess over my hair all the time!

Ive always relaxed my hair as striaght as it would go. (my hair is super striaght in the shower) after i finish coniditioning my hair i add a leave in condiontioner an use a shower comb once through. At this point my hair is drippin wet an still straight.
Im not sure if this works on everyones hair but if i leave my hair drippin wet an allowed to dry on its own without touching it (about 7 hours) till fully dry. my hair will begin to wave up on its own. the result looks like a braidout.

Silvergirl,
My hair is exactly like that. In the shower, my hair is super straight! Once out of the shower and combing through leave-in - still pretty straight. I have never allowed it to dry on its own thoroughly without touchig it. I think I am too afraid of the results!
Congrats on your 1 year transitioning anniversary!
