Did a wng on Monday with KCCC and Tresemme Botanique underneath. Today was day 3. No pics, sorry lol. But I will say I could've easily pulled 4 days but I was long overdue for a protein treatment so I had to wash it.

Banding my hair seems to be the best for getting 2nd day+ hair. No more "pineapples" for me!
 
Since my last post my hair has gotten herself back on track! A protein treat and DC with heat and it's all good again. My love for protein is well documented in these LHCF streets but I fell off my DC with heat game eons ago. My hair LOVES a heated DC and my curls are hanging and bouncing effortlessly...AND my undercarriage is DEFINED. That right thurrr is golden! I'm going to DC with heat every weekend and see how it goes. I can't believe how that 1/2 hour made such a noticeable difference!
 
Pretty wash and go @Saludable84 !! Wash and go's have ruined me from other styles lol nothing beats five minutes total styling time

It was like 15 minutes. I could not believe it! I was prepared for an hour of twisting last night. I said if it doesn't work, I would just rewash and twist. Took my hair down this morning and it was looking right.

I still can't believe this.

Resistance is futile @Saludable84

If it last until Wednesday, I'll give in.

Yup I just mix my leave in and gel, slap it on in big sections, spritz some water if the gel is too thick and brush through with my wet brush and my hair is done for several days. I am so hair lazy but my hair is always on point like I spent a long time on it.
 
So now, can y'all tell me how we are preserving our WNG from one day until the next.

I just sleep on it or wear a bonnet and fluff in the morning. Depending on the product combo I get 3-7 days. For some reason products containing keratin work well for long lasting hair for me. So far I have not found another reliable preservation method for MY hair. They usually stretch out my hair and make it look weird.

Welcome to the darkside! :angeldevil:
 
I wear my bonnet at night and just steam in shower in morning.
Pineappling has never worked for me.
This is what I was thinking. But steaming at night or GHE and then bonnet for the overnight.

I have some humectress because I was thinking along the same lines of keratin.
 
@Saludable84 I wear my hair in a low/loose ponytail with a satin bonnet at night and then spritz/fluff in the morning. I will reapply small amounts of gel to the most frizzy parts or if I decide to just wear it smoothed back in a bun. Glycerin is key to WNG longevity for my hair. So activator gel or something with a lot of glycerin mixed with my styler helps me to get longer wear.
