Ladies who wash twice a week.

[Sounique]

Hello Ladies,

I just have a quick simple question that I hope you don't mind answering...
I was wondering, for those of you who cowash/shampoo twice a week, do you go through the entire process of completely styling your hair or do you just air dry and bun?

 

[Toy]

I go through the whole process and i airdry.

 

[Tinkerbell19]

It all depends. Sometimes airdry bun other times wash n go or just rollerset/flexi rod.

 

[Sounique]

Wow, that seems like so much work, especially with hair as long as yours. I guess I'm just lazy. erplexed Your hair is beautiful by the way.

 

[newflowers]

It takes a couple of hours twice a week which may seem rather time consuming, but, if you think of it as the best method to care for your hair and a little bit of me time, it's a win-win situation.

 

[Musicachic]

I always usually airdry. I DC once a week. Occasionally I will flat iron (in the past eight weeks I flat ironed once). Sometimes I will co wash and do more than 2 washes a week if you include those. It just depends. Buns are my best friend now.

 

[SelfStyled]

I wash a min of 2x a week, and am so LAZY. I apply my leave in and bun and keep it moving.

 

[topnotch1010]

I air dry and bun, everytime.

 

[Sounique]

For the ladies who cowash and then bun, do you find that you retain more length and do you leave bangs out to add a little more style to your bun?

 

[Nonie]

I'm not sure if your question applies to me. I'm in twists all the time and wash in them. So styling involves just putting the twists up in whatever do I feel like wearing them in. There's no combing or detangling involved so it doesn't take but a few minutes to style.

Naw man, I trow it up in a bun. Like my avatar and siggy.
I am waiting till BSL to start styling..too lazy.
And then I will not co-was every day either.

 

[Serenity_Peace]

I've been thinking about cutting soft bangs when I finally do relax, so that when I wear my buns, it'll give me a little more style and versatility.

I've been bunning for 2 months now. I wash at least twice a week and then just put it back in the bun. I love it because its *so* easy and convenient. And my hair loves it, too!

 

[SelfStyled]

Sometimes when I bun, I will add a clip in bang

Like....

 

[MizAvalon]

I just airdry and bun. Too time consuming to do the rest of that more than once a week.

 

[envybeauty]

Bun or ponytail rollerset.

Ditto here. I absolutely abhore blowdrying,

 

[buddhas_mom]

I wash twice a week and everytime I go through the whole process. Yes it's time consuming but I don't care. One wash I airdry and flat iron. Second wash I rollerset. I am a once a week direct heat user. I never bun or protective style. I love the way my hair looks after a wash too much to put it away. My hair has done extremely well from this process. If your hair doesn't do well with heat I wouldn't suggest it.

You know I was cowashing like crazy last summer, almost every day and bunning or doing WnG's. Now that my hair is longer, a WHOLE lot more natural hair to deal with, and it's still cold right now, I co/wash my hair twice a week and either put it in twists or 4 plaits until it's dry. I have become beyond lazy so taking a couple hrs to do my hair is just not gonna happen. I think once it gets warm, I'll stick to 2, maybe 3 x's per week.

 

[janeemat]

Yeap Go through the whole process of rollersetting and drying. I'm almost 16 wks post now and I decided a couple weeks ago when I get this far along in my stretch to do once a week to cut down on manipulation.

 

[tbaby_8]

I am real lazy right now so I am shampooing and bunning alot lately.

 

[Mo96]

I co-wash on Wednesdays and usually pull my hair back into a bun and airdry overnight. In the morning, I always bring some of my hair out for a "swoop". On Saturdays, I always rollerset after I shampoo and DC.

 

[Whisper]

Airdry and bun all the time.

 

[CHECKMATE!]

I air dry and bun when i cowash....when I wash/DC I air dry then flatiron

 

[joyandfaith]

Air dry and bun all the time. None of this would be getting done if I had to straighten and style my hair every time afterwards

 

[SmartyPants]

I rollerset my hair every night--wet or dry. So, yes, I do the full she-bang every time I wash my hair.

 

[fletches]

I co-wash about twice a week and I bun & airdry everytime.
I only flat iron once every 12 wks or so. Sometimes I'll wear a phony pony or a puff but mostly buns. My hair has retained a lot of length this way, but I also do it b/c I'm too lazy to go through the whole shebang everytime.

I still have to learn how to per-fect a wash n go so it doesn't look frizzy so I don't wear those

 

[brucebettye]

When I wash my hair twice a week I just let my hair airdry in a side puff. Simple and easy and no extra work for me. Sometimes I wear it down about once or twice a month. I am really lazy.

 

[baddison]

Wash, DC with heat, rinse, put moisturizers, section into 4 or 6 fat braids, tie w/silk scarf, got to bed. In the morning, spritz with wet moisturizer, seal with oils/butters, put in bun.

 

[Kiki82]

I go thru the whole process and airdry if I'm pressed for time I go under a dome dryer (cool air)...just to speed up the time..either braid out on wet hair bantu knots on wet hair etc...etc...
