Fall/Winter Wash n go challenge

[Guinan]

I frequent almost all the other threads. Sometimes I need a break from talking about hair. However, I have noticed a decline in participation in the hair forums. I have no ideal what that's about. I don't even see newbie intro threads anymore.

I think maybe it's b/c there are so many differences of opinions and the backlash of it is just not worth it to some people. I can even be guilty of that sometimes. However, some people posts the most ridiculous sh*t stirring things; so how can you not expect to get checked; but some members take the "dragging" a little too far.

And also I think people might be concerned about other sites or people "stealing" photos etc...

^^It wasn't until the search function was down one day, that I took a look back at some threads on pages 1000somethingorother and realised that newbies used to do intro threads. I didn't know that's how we do...sowwy.

Girl! Where have you been?!

Lol! I am really busy with school and work right now. I've neglected my hair something serious under a weave and my wash n go's don't look good anymore. Plus the forum seems a little dead now or is it just me? Maybe everyone went on vacation. Lol

Lol I'm just messing with you. How's cosmetology school going? The forum is a little slow, seems like a lot of ppl don't post anymore

Cosmo is going very well. Its harder than I anticipated though but it's fun at the same time. I don't have much time for blogging though

Good! I'm glad you like it! Anything worth doing/having takes hard work. Your blogs are always really good so I look forward to more posts in the future.

I had to add Jakaela Hemp and Shea to loosen up the hold on the gel. Definition is great, but I think I may stick with the butters under or over the gel. I hate hard, helmet hair!

 

[MzRhonda]

@Joigirl your curls are always to die for

 

[Joigirl]

Thanks @MzRhonda!

I had rewashed my hair 2 days ago and each night bagged in three ponytails. Today took the baggy off, and released the ponytails, shook and going about my business.

I omitted the leave in with the coconut and added Sweet Soul Magic Gel on top. Rainy weather and baggying working hand in hand. I will probably wash tomorrow.

I miss my hair! will remove my box braids July 4th weekend then I will be back here.

 

[Joigirl]

@shawnyblazes, that looks really good on you! Cute style.

Washed with tresemme flawless curls shampoo. Conditioned with tresemme flawless curls conditioner. Styled with Camille rose coconut water leave in and curl maker.

I've got to try that stretching technique. Your hair looks great!

Be careful. I was doing that a few years ago cuz I saw so many youtubers doing it but I damaged a section. It's finally to the ends like 3 years later :-( I can't wait until it's fully grown out.

Now I'm scared . Would stretching it out using only the cool shot still work? What I do now is when I stretch I give it a blast of hot air then I use the cool shot the rest of the time.

Thanks for the warning. I definitely don't want to damage my hair to show more length. I only use the cool setting, so it probably would do much but cause frizz.

I'm not sure if cool would work very well. Maybe if you put some tension on it. I found other ways to stretch (pineapple mostly or banding). I just found a lady on YouTube that bands for stretch and her curls are gorgeous! I'll post her video when I can sit down later....running late as usual lol.

Eta.....

Wet in shower and shook. Original wash n go was done Sunday evening.

 

[Coilystep]

I picked up some carol's daughter for the first time. I got the hair milk original leave-in and hair milk alcohol-free gel. I may try them this weekend. Has anyone used these before?

 

[Bette Davis Eyes]

Haven't washed yet and hair is looking great!

If I lived in a rainy state my hair would always be bomb.

Depending on how I feel I will wash tomorrow.

Eta. Just realized this is day 5.

Fresh Washngo

First picture is right after styling and second picture is 15 minutes later as shrinkage is starting to kick in. By the time its 85% dry it will be above my eyebrows.

I thought this was an interesting technique for a wng. I don't think I would do it though due to the direct heat.

I saw this today too. I thought about trying it for two seconds. I wouldn't want to use a blow dryer like that either.

I haven't taken any pictures this week, but I seem to be having good results with Ampro Curl Enhancer Curl Activator Gel for Extra Dry Hair. I use it in place of SM Curl Enhancing Smoothie. I still use a gel for hold on top of is because I read somewhere that curl activating gels don't provide great hold.
