Fall/Winter Wash n go challenge

Oh wow. I was looking at that gel yesterday. Maybe I'll try to get a sample to be in the safe side

Let me know if you can minimize the stiffness. I really liked it while I was applying it and it gave my curls nice hang time. But now I'm so scared of that stuff, I don't want to play around and have a set back over gel.
 
my products are arriving for my wng regimen pretty soon.

After next Sunday, out of this protective style I come and Washngo season is upon me.

I'm still loving my as I am curling jelly. My only issue is that my hair takes a long time to dry.

Have you ever tried diluting your gel. I find my hair dries faster when I dilute it a bit.
no I may try that. It's not really that bad. I just don't want to get hygral(sp) fatigue/mushy hair. It does dry eventually it's just that with my goddess gel and others I'm dry by lunchtime now I'm not fully dry until mid afternoon. That day I did my updo it never dried at all.
 
The warm weather is back and I am excited to get back to Wash n go's!!! Currently in a braid out, but my next wash will be a wash n go with one of the many gels in my arsenal, I've gotten carried away with gel purchases :).
 
My wash and go today. Ampro Pro Styl Argan Oil gel + Worlds of Curls

My hair today. Used as I am leave in and curling jelly. I pushed both sides back and secure with a large bobby pin on each side. I want to get some decorative hair combs to do this style I think that would be cute.

I'm probably going to have to get a significant amount of hair cut off.

:crying3::crying3::crying3:

I took my crochet braids out almost three months ago, and I'm really starting to see how awful my hair is. I've got a bunch of mid strand splits, sometimes more than 2" from the ends of my hair.

But that's okay. Part of the reason I went natural was because I wanted to have fun with hair color. I'm going to spend some time looking for some shorter styles so I can get my hair cut in a few weeks and get it colored in late spring/early summer.

sorry to hear that. I know that protective styling works well for some but it can also cause issues as well. On another note can't wait to see the style and color you pick.
 
Wash and go from a week ago. My hair was still wet in the pics, I had just got done deep conditioning. You can really see the difference in my hair textures in the second pic. I used the Ampro gel.

My WNG's have looked awful for the last couple of weeks. I am usually ending up putting into a puff and then doing a twist out. Though I still wear one at least twice a week.

Last night I got lazy and steamed with my dc and then just went to bed. No time this morning so my hair is a disaster lol. Maybe I need to clarify? I am trying to work through my stash so I can try doing the Curly Girl Method this Spring/Summer.

Good to start with a clarifier. Do you incorporate protein in your regimen? I personally love the curly girl method. I only have trouble with curl definition if I use a product my hair does not like.

I do like to use protein but I absolutely suck at keep track of when I use it. Usually I DC twice a week but I don't read the ingredients labels to specifically stay away from protein. For me a hard core protein will be a session with Aphogee or Joico. My definition is getting looser as my hair grows.....but as long as it's not matted or tangled i deal with it.

Hi ladies!!! Long time member and several name changes :) I miss this place and I'm on the sidelines for this challenge. I have fine hair and this is my 4th time "going natural". I finally have this hair figured out and I love it! Thanks for all the information on this site!

Very cute. You'll need to share what you're using and doing, and keep in mind we love pictures.
