I apply the conditioner to my hair in 8 sections, the same way that I apply my gel. The only way it works for me is to make sure my hair is wet, not damp. The conditioner has to be thick too. I did this once with VO5 and when my hair dried it was like day 3 hair.

Hello, I'm not even sure If i can join as I only wash n go, once a week, as I'm trying to lessen manipulation.
The Process
1. Pre-deep treat Aubrey organics Honey Suckle Rose and Extra Virgin Olive oil.
2. Wash, condition and detangle with Tigi Moisture Maniac
3. Moisturise and detangle with Curl Junkie Assurance smoothing lotion and Curl Junkie Beauti-curls.
4. Smooth and rake, Eco Styler Argan oil gel throughout hair
5. Add Curl Junkie curls in a bottle as a finisher for added shine and frizz control.
Here some pics of my wash n go i did yesterday, excuse the picture quality, I know its poor.

I took bathroom pics to attempt to show yall how big my hair is but it still looks bigger in person hahaha..
I didn't do the usual wash and go but pretty much got the same results.
I had been wearing a bun for 2 days then last night I spritzed my hair and drenched it with coconut oil and put on 2 plastic caps and a scarf last night and went to bed. I lightly rinsed over my hair in the shower this morning just to try and get it wet but not drenching. I did't want to wash the coconut oil out. After the shower, I sparingly used Xtreme gel all over. The coconut oil gave me some decent definition by itself. By doing all of this I was trying to decrease shrinkage I usually get on a first day wash and go and I think it worked. Basically I look like I have 2 or 3 day hair instead of 1 day hair. It's really soft.

I haven't used shampoo in almost a year but I felt I really needed to clarify my hair. I probably won't do it again for awhile.

I did my first condioner only wash and go and I have a love/hate relationship with it hahaha
I did my usual deep conditioning/protein routine then I applied Satin Roots leave-in, Natural 7 Oil and Tresemme Naturals. All this was done last night so my hair wasn't all the way dry when I went to bed. I put my hair in two low loose ponytails. Woke up this morning and just fluffed it out. It was still damp. I have little to no definition in my hair and it is big and fluffy. It just seems like the conditioner did not want to penetrate my hair or something and I kept spraying it with water. Maybe I shouldn't of used a leave in cause normally when I cowash with it my hair curls up really nice. Maybe I will apply it in the shower and see what happens.

I had some unused Beyond The Zone Color Jamz on my dresser, so I refreshed my hair color.

You are going to make me go back to wash and go's!!!! Your hair is beautiful. Nothing like a beautiful head of thick lush curls.So I had sworn off of wash and go's. I had convinced myself that if I let it shrink up on it's own that would surely unleash the apocalypse.Anyway, decided to re-visit because it would give me a quicker hair style solution.
First day of my wash and go.
Second day of my wash and go.
Third day of my wash and go.
Co-wash with Trader Joe's Tree Tingle. Raked through olive oil, Honey Hemp Conditioner and EcoStyler (Olive) in about six-eight sections on soaking wet hair. Drip Dry.
Spritz in morning with Juice and Berries. Pineapple at night under a baggie with a spritz of Juice and Berries.

I rarely post but I'm a frequent wash and goer. The first pic is Aussie moist as a leave in only. The second pic is Wen Fig as a leave in only. Using conditioner only lasts me about 4 day. Eta I don't refresh with product or spray that just makes my hair frizzier

I want to try this with Paul Mitchell the Conditioner but I just feel that my hair doesn't have enough volume to really rock this look. My hair is so fine and tangles easily. I admit I'm not used to wearing my hair "down" because it's always pulled back in some form or fashion in a ponytail or my version of a *bun.* To be honest, I'm not really comfortable wearing my hair any other way but I need to try something different since I don't want to continue putting stress on my edges. With that said, I've tried Kinky Curly and Beyond the Zone (or Noodlehead?) products in the past and the results were not to my liking at all. I will continue to lurk in the thread; I love looking at the pics.

All you need is an afro pick to add volume. Have you seen this video my Taryn. Watch the Power of an Afro Pick

Well that was enlightening! I just assumed that if your hair flopped that was that. The styling game is deep!
