The important lesson (that I mistakingly forgot to add); I will no longer use cowash. It was great for my shorter hair when I was washing every other day. However, it's pointless now. I'd rather shampoo, personally. My hair felt gummy and gross with all the product, and cowashing did not help either 😂 and lastly, I'm going back to 2x per week shampoo sessions. Waiting a week just causes me tangles and dryness. 💕
I never understood the point of cowashing. I love that you shared your experience with us. I feel like shampoo nowadays are more sophisticatedly formulated where cowashing isn’t necessary. I suppose it’s just another gimmick to get people to buy. But what do I know?
@@ammabu It worked well when I had a real TWA. I LOVED to wet my head every day, but at the time, I believed shampooing was too harsh. When I did use a co-wash, it helped my curls pop and took a little less time than it would have to put in shampoo and conditioner. I still shampooed at least once a week; co-washing in between helped me get in and out of the showers a tad bit faster. I agree that the formulation of shampoos nowadays is more sophisticated, and I probably would’ve enjoyed shampooing my hair instead of co-washing with a TWA had I realized that there were moisturizing shampoos, but I categorized all shampoos as stripping. The more you know 💡
It’s def a mood, and especially when using ufd. It hold so much water that when my hair starts to flake I need a shampoo to remove the gunk.
Yes using shampoo is a must. When cowashing was popular I tried it but never felt my hair was clean. I never mind the feeling of stripping that some may feel. I love your result. I followed your advice I didn't add any water when I use the topper (Innersence I create hold). I still don't have any cruch but my wash n go holds up (a soft wash n go )
@@psr076 That’s interesting. How much of the ICH did you use? I know our hair all reacts differently, but I can’t imagine not having any crunch with that product. Also, how did you apply it?
Gorgeous hair! Your density is crazy!!
Thank you!
I've done that before, used too much product. What helps me is after 2 days I fully soak my hair with water and let it air dry, it helps to relieve most of the gumminess and my curls still pop.
That’s a great tip. Thank you for sharing ❤️
The result is gorgeous as always! 😍😍Your curl pattern is so consistent throughout your head.
I noticed the consistent curl pattern too. Amazing 😻
Gracias 🥰
Glad that silk scarf is working for you better than the bonnet!! Told ya! (Yes my helmet head cracks me up every time too!)
Haha, Yes! I love it here, but that will never cease to have me deceased. ⚰
Glad you stuck with it! We have similar hair and ive been on this mousse only WAG with you. Appreciate the content
Yay! I love when you upload you have inspired me to do weekly wash n gos❤️
Yes! I love that 💕
Your hair is getting so long. I find that I get the most growth from doing back to back wash and gos. People state twists and braids but I get occasional knotting and don’t like outcome of them once taking out. That’s why people should do what works for them 💯
Growing like a chia pet. Same with the twists and braids. I could never get the styles to work for me. I would get so much breakage in my roots from braids especially. Facts❕
That’s very tru, I started trying the twists and braids on my twa for a week instead of my wash n go’s because where I live is very humid and I bike to work and as transportation, also the gym so during the summer it’s too hot to even care for keeping a wash n go more than 3 days. The fall is the best time for my wash n gos
my favorite series 😍 thank you for sharing! your hair is getting so long. and i love my hair after i workout too, there’s so much life and volume to my hair. it’s almost like the sweat reactivates the curls lol
Thank you for watching! Lol yes! I thought it would look worse afterward especially since I am constantly laying on the back of my head and smashing the back down while sitting on these machines, but I was pleasantly surprised 💁🏾♀️
Gorgeous 💛💛
I need to try this combo out!! My hair typically doesn’t like foams, but I might give this a go.
Thank ya 💚 I felt the same way, but I find that it’s really about the amount that I’m using and how I apply it. Do give it a try!
Yea! I always watch your uploads, you hair looks healthy and it is growing a lot. I didnt know the best way to keep my hair at night so I ended up wearing a scarf and it gets smushed but it fluffs like yours and looks fine later.
I appreciate it 🤎 I'm glad the scarf works for you too.
Fantastic! Your curls soak it all up😊 by the end of the week it was still Bomb! I love The Doux! Never any flaking.
No flaky flakes at all. I’ve been on the fence, but I’m beginning to like it a lot as well.
Your hair is definitely growing and looks great, subscribing!
Welcome 🤗
Yep. That co-washing just adds more stuff onto the hair that needs to come off. I live in S. FL and I learned quickly that it's better to alternate btw all purpose and moisturizing shampoos. I also shampoo twice weekly. I'm similar in density, tight wavy/curly, less silky than you. I used my travel size ouidad leave in that's been sitting unused for 4 months and it's bomb!!! I can't believe I been sleeping on this. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Your hair is flourishing!!
I need to purchase an all purpose shampoo because right now my arsenal just has moisturizing shampoos. Ouidad products for the🏆 I love them! You’re welcome! And thank you so much 💖
I’ve learned so much from your videos! Plus they are veryyyy well put together! Coming from someone who didn’t think they had WNG type hair. I look forward to washing my hair now.
Thank you! So glad you find them helpful 🫶🏾 happy holidays
@@BrittanyMia happy holidays!! 🫶🏾🫶🏾
I co wash mainly for scalp itchiness. Because I’m low porosity, doing a wash n go with ufd had my scalp itchy by day 3 so I use the as I am itchy scalp care❤️❤️❤️❤️ just to get my scalp.
I feel you. Glad you have something that works for you! ❤
I love it sis 🔥🔥🔥
Thank ya 🤎
Thanks for the video!! I find it easier to detangle outside the shower b4 I wash my hair. It's easier and less stressful for me. The product I use is the Just 4 me curl peace preshampoo detangler. There are videos on youtube about the product.
Hey Naomi! Thanks for watching and sharing your detangling process 💗
My son has this exact texture and the same issues detangling and shedding!
It’s a struggle! I know that shampooing twice a week will certainly help with the detangling. At least for myself.
Laying in my bed right now, thinking if I should go one more day, and I don’t have near as much hair as you 😉 great video as always . I’ll was my handful of curls later 😁
😂 As long as you do it, 🫶🏾 Thanks!
You gave me courage to Rock my short bang bc it looks so cute on u!! I kept a protective style in for two months and it broke my front off bad! I never wore my bangs as is until I came across it videos. I also incorporated that shake at the end of my wash n go bc ur curls seem to fall into place and it helps mind too! I enjoy watching ur wash days they are soothing looking forward to the next. Ps I love that u curse makes me relate to u more lol
Yes girl, rock that short bayang 💁🏾♀️ i’m sorry that happened to you. Protective styles single-handedly caused THEE most breakage in my hair so I feeeel you on that. thank you! I really appreciate that. I try and walk a fine line because I want to be monetized soon, but I also need to be able to say what needs to be said 😮💨🤣 lol 💕
Whew auto correct ate me up once I went back and reread that comment but I feel u got me perfectly lol I have been watching ur wash days for a couple weeks and I finally got the courage to put up my first hair video yesterday check me out if u have time!!! I also have to wash my hair every 4/5 days or it’s tangle city for me!
@@Jakelan20 Just watched, and your curls are cute! Keep it up fr!!💕
@@BrittanyMia that just made my day!!! Thank you I’m still transitioning from the heat damage I had got from all those Dominican blowouts and that breakage in the front from protective styling but I’m trying to get all my curls to pop like urs!! Have a good day thank u again for checking me out!!!
I have super tight curls too and I love having a short bang. None of the stylist I go to really want to cut it that short..they always leave it a little long on the sides of the bang; like you would a curtain bangs. And I'm like nah, cut it short. It's cute 😍
The short bangs are a vibe 💃🏾
4:46 tears
despite the over-coating you achieved its usual visual perfection..
I appreciate it. However, It felt really gummy and gross those last few days. Especially since I didn’t shampoo. once I finish up this curlsmith, that’ll be the end of cowashing for me for the foreseeable future 📡
@@BrittanyMia Ah ha. And there's the gold. Thank you for those specifics.
Okay so strike co-washing and excessive product loading. Check & double check
Gorgeous curls
Thank you
EVERY shampoo day is a detangling battle for me. My coils like to wrap around each other like the scene from The Color Purple when Mr. was trying to separate Nettie and Celie 😂 😂 😂
LOL NO FR
In case you still need a good stopper - OXO Good Grips Silicone Shower & Tub Drain Protector
Got mine off Amazon and it's been ah-mazing!
You did use a lot of product 😂 I know that UF is (really expensive) great and a little goes a long way and the Doux (is also expensive) seems great on it's own, so together they make be unstoppable
Just purchased the drain protector. Thanks for the suggestion!
WHEW density on 100000!!!
OK Vocals!!! 🥰

I just started using the curly magic and the doux mousse. While they make my hair look good and well define curls. I notice after day 3 my hair starts to flake, do you have this problem?Any tips on how to avoid this problem?
I personally don’t have this problem, but I will say that at that point you may just have to do a reset. If that something you don’t want to do maybe playing with the amount or ratio of each product the next time you do that set could help avoid that problem.
Girl, I was sitting here like a dope fiend waiting on my fix 😂 Congrats on the new job, though, I understand life. Love the video of course and your hair looks beautiful. Co- wash never did much for me either. They say sometimes washing your hair multiple times a week with shampoo can make it a bit dry and you may want to substitute it in if it does. So I keep it on standby, but I don't use mine either 🤷🏽 I just switch to a more moisturizing shampoo.
😩😂 I’ve noticed a lot more dryness in my crown but I don't know if its shampoo or bad product distribution. Even after deep conditioning or cowashing. Practically all of my shampoos are moisturizing shampoos but that may be the problem. I’m lost on why my crown feels so dry, but next time, I’ll make sure I’m working products in that section better. I also hate that pump on the Curlsmith cowash. How are you that expensive with such a raggedy-ass pump? I cannot 🥱. Thank you!
I just saw a curl specialist say most curlies have that same issue. Some say it's because that's where the water hits our head first in the shower... maybe it's hard water 🤷🏽Personally even though I know it's not direct heat I feel like it's because of sitting under the dryer. That's the part of our head that's closest. I've just learned to deal with it lol. I just try to take my time there but with me even my curls are a little looser in that area 😩
@@Dgirl22s good to know, because I thought I was tripping for three weeks 😅 I feel like that hits the nail on the head. Because sitting under the dryer for an hour + each week, or every few days can definitely cause dryness to that part. I may try and add a heat protectant spray before I sit under the dryer and see if that helps.
There is a learning curve when using uncle funkys daughter (that i haven't figure out yet water to product ratio) any tips would greatly be appreciated
It can take some time to figure out, but id say start at the ends and work your way up. After raking it in, use the praying hand's method to smooth it in and gauge whether you need more. Make sure you're adding a bit of water while working it In instead of a lot because while water activates it, too much water can call for too much product.
You trip me out with your subtitles and the looks when you drop stuff, etc. 😂😂😂 I don't know how you stay in the shower that long doing all that to your hair because I be itching like a mug and I have a TWA
I still get surprised at how loud it is when something drops in the shower 🤣 it took some time to get used to, but it’s not so bad.
What are some of the most crucial tips you have for beginner naturals? I’m 16 and trying to get the juice before I go to college 😅
Don’t be afraid to experiment with your hair, but once you find something you like and can maintain, do it consistently. When I was 16, I was constantly trying different styles, but it wasn’t until recently that I found something that works for me, and I’m perfecting it. I don’t have any FOMO on other hairstyles because I’ve had that time to experiment and know what works for me. It can be easy to look around and compare your hair to others' hair, especially at that age, but I encourage you to give yourself grace and love during your journey and make other natural friends. That’s common ground already, but you can learn much from other naturalistas! And if you can, go to a professional curl specialist before you do anything. If not, I suggest learning from others who have gone to specialists here on YT who have shared their experiences and knowledge because there's so much more professional information nowadays, and/or check out Iamblackgirlcurls. Don’t hesitate to comment and ask any more questions 🤎
@@BrittanyMia tysm:)
Hi again I know back kinda soon lol but I have one more question or two how to you get your curls to clump but not in the way it’s like clump section but like curl cluster clumps if that makes sense? Because In the shower my hair like sticks together fully I try to section but I don’t know the easiest ways to do this Also best ways to reduce frizz because just when washing my hair there’s somehow frizz even when it’s wet which is just coocoo . This makes it so when I wake up my day 1 hair looks like it’s been through a hard 5 day battle .. sorry for the block of text lol..
@@hightrash3515 When my hair is getting stuck together and not separating into its individual curls, I take smaller sections and smooth it in using the praying hands method. And I try to ensure I’m not combing my fingers through that section disturbing the curls again. For example, if I put my hair in four sections I will split 1/4 of a section into two and add product, then smooth it in, making sure to add water to work it in. Then even in that little section I will take smaller pieces and smooth it in.
My hair used to be frizzy as well, and it was because I wasn’t shampooing properly. It may seem like overkill, but I encourage you to shampoo twice and make sure your smooth in that shampoo so that your hair gets clean. Let me know if that helps at all or if I misunderstood.
@@BrittanyMia this is very helpful thank you ! Will come back Sunday after I used your tips:)
Question, why were the products unnecessary if your results were good? (I learn from these inserts in the video,)
Valid question. I neglected to add a critical section at the end that spoke about how heavy and gross my hair felt. Also, it was still taking in moisture from the air, which added to the weight, and my scalp was going crazy. I'm not too fond of that feeling. I hope this helps! 💚
@@BrittanyMia it does help.. thanks
The part where the stuff got into your eyes 😂😂😂😂
😅🤣
Not me wanting to hear the end of the song 🙊😊
