Natural Hair Wash n’ go’s

There are various ways a naturalista can style her hair but a common one that many do is “Wash N’ Go”. Don’t let the term decieve you it’s far from a wash and literally go.

These typically take a decent amount of time which is why many refer to wash day as its own day but… it can also be seen as a self care day!

There are different ways people go about their wash N go’s, some like to do them in the shower while their hair is drenched while others like to be outside the shower spraying there hair to re wet it. Regardles both take similair steps.

The Loc Method

This stands for “liquid, oil, and cream” while G isn’t in there many people use gel after this method as well to help hold their curl pattern .

Step one: section hair into 4 sections and wet your hair with a spray bottle or if in the shower then wet that section under the shower head.

step two: lock in moisture by using any type of hair oil (different textures require different oils) if you have more type 4 hair you might want to use a castor oil while type 3 uses more of an avocado oil.

step three: Pick out you favorite hair cream! (mine is moisture Rx by Mielle organics), a common cream is the curl enhacning smoothie by shea moisture. Coat this on your hair very well moisturizing every curl or coil.

Step four: Keep those curls poppin! Add gel to the section by raking through your hair helping define your hair pattern and making sure each is coated with gel

Extras:

If you want extra moisture some might want to add a leave in conditoner between steps one and two but it’s up to your preference.

Drying

To help hold your definiton you can use an attached hooded blow dryer and use clips to help lay the top of your hair wether that’s flat or voluminized

You can also twist your hair in a microfiber towel to get some of the water out just in case your hair is very wet then proceed to your preffered drying method

**Regardless of what you choose do not use a regular towel to dry your hair becasue this can create breakage instead use a microfiber towel or cotten shirt

Finally.. rock that Wash N Go!!
