Today's wash n go using curls line. I used their rinse out conditioner, lavish moisturizer (I do not like the sprayer product comes out in a skinny stream. I think I would prefer more of a most sprayer.), creme brûlée styler a goddess curls gel styler. I've let it air dry and it's still a little damp, but I'm happy with the results.

Shea Butter Miracle Bouncy Curls Pudding

this crap is straight garbage. It looks like a pudding, it goes on like a regular cream moisturizer. I dumped the full container in the garbage. I hate the way it made my hair feel
 
Wng using Aussie instant freeze sculpting gel for the first time :) my first impression was LOVE, lol.

I have a question because I recently began to wash and go. My hair is long enough to do that now as my TWA is growing. How is your hair supposed to feel? Are your curls and waves supposed to feel greasy like a jheri curl or just nice and soft when it dries.

Best,

Nice and soft yet moisturized. It shouldn't feel greasy unless you used a greasy product or too much of it.

I vote non-greasy. But it really does depend on what you used... SM soufflé gave me the greasiest hair I've ever had in life. Just film all down my face & neck. Sometimes ppl claim glycerin heavy products also feel greasy. But it's your preference and result that matters most!

I wash and go 365, and my products don't change (I live in TX, though, so that might make a difference). I might use a diffuser every now and then.

The only thing that changes is how I wear my wash and go. I will usually wear my hair up in a bun during the cold months (warm months it's almost always down or half up half down) and I redo my hair less frequently. So I guess that would be considered wet bunning...IDK, I just call it wash and go bun lol.

Either way, I don't walk outside with super wet hair like I might would do during the summer. I get up a little early to give my hair a chance to dry a bit before stepping out.

Oh, and the products I use: a styling gel mixed with an activator gel. So, usually Eco styler and Worlds of Curls.

I will say that this year I plan on experimenting with roller sets and some of the straightening kits that wash out after one use (not BKT). Not b/c I have issues with winter wngs; just want to try something new.
 
I think I'm in love with the clear Eco styler gel (krystal) :drool: I haven't used this one in a very long time, and it is awesome. Very thick, it clumps all my curls and kinks together nicely. My hair is shiny and springy lol. I might get the 5lb bucket once this jar is used up :look: don't judge me

I'll only do wash n go's until the weather gets cold. Anything under 50 degrees just won't work. My curls don't come out as nice in the winter. Plus I get the sniffles whenever I walk around with wet hair.

I hope I have enough hair to stop doing WNGs by the time it gets cold. So far I haven't been able to get 2nd day hair from any process I've tried. I have a couple of months yet so maybe by hat time I will have worked it out.

I did them all year long for the past two years and I live in WI. The cold didn't really bother me. I also went out with wet hair with no issues. This year I plan to incorporate more TOs and updos to add some variety. I did not like these styles until my hair grew out.
 
I think wng should be soft and moisturized. Non greasy or crunchy.

I also wng year around but in the winter I usually wash the night before so my hair is dry by the time I leave the house for work. Sometimes I will wear my hair straight in winter (my hair seems to like it but I'm lazy) but this year my hair is too short so I will not be doing that.

I also believe I may have found the remedy to my dry crown. I've been using cantu shea butter leave in topped with SM curl enhancing smoothie and my crown is more moisturized. Still not as moisturized as the rest of my hair hair. But not a dry crows nest any more at least. Still not sure what is causing this dryness and really wishing it will STOP!!!

Maybe your crown needs more protein? if the Cantu and CES are helping, it could be b/c that section of your hair needs extra protein. Maybe that area is high porosity?
