So a few weeks ago I posted a pic on instagram of
me and my big hair revisiting the wash and go. The wash and go and I have a complicated
relationship. As a new natural, it was
all I knew. Maybe a year ago I retired
the look because I found it to be a challenge as I retained more and more
length. One of my hair crushes and
sister bloggers, Elle of Quest for
the Perfect Curl is the quintessential wash and goer. She
literally has the wash and go on lock down.
Her hair is off the chart gorgeous and every time I look at her hair,
who she affectionately calls Izzy, it makes me want to do a wash and go. Thus was the case this past weekend. I used a
new product, Curls
Cashmere Curl Jelly. I posted my
review of the product last week. My hair
is so porous and dries very quickly so before I left the house it was almost
completely dry. It had so much bounce
and softness, I was in love. I achieved the fullness of a 4 day old twist out
in the first 35 minutes! It was
wonderful. I was outdoors all weekend
and it only got bigger. The pic in the
instagram photo was before I left the house so imagine how big and
bold it was by the time my day was over. The verdict – yes I will do it again.
What’s your relationship with the wash and go?

Your hair is very pretty. I love wash n gos infact its the only style I wear. Its a easy style for me. And It doesn't take much. Take care.
I only do it probably 2-3 times a year.
I'm a dread now but when I was loose I used to rock the wash-and-go all the time...until I realized how tangled it left my fine hair.
That and the fact that it was uber drying for me. I do much better in protective styles.
I wish I could do it but the shrinkage I have is REAL lol and detangling that bad boy is another story
