I Let SUBSCRIBERS Guide MY 4c Wash and Go 😳 Max Hydration Method Results
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июл 2024
- Today I’m letting SUBSCRIBERS guide my wash and go using the Maximum Hydration Method on my 4c natural hair. I’ve been natural for 10 years and I’ve never heard of this method until one of my subscribers recommended that I try it. The name piqued my interest, so I humorously tried to follow as many tips from my subscribers as I could. That is the basis of this video.
So what is the Maximum Hydration Method?
It’s actually a hybrid of many popular techniques (Cherry Lola Treatment, Caramel Treatment, Bentonite clay mask) and is specifically geared toward those with low porosity hair who’d like to achieve ultimate moisture retention. Sounds like it’s made for me!
Disclaimers:
I hate having to leave disclaimers, but this is purely meant for fun and research. There are many techniques I’ve never used simply because I’ve already found what works for my hair. I’m a student by nature and though hypothesis are valuable, nothing beats good hard trial and error. I think it’s fun and it’s livened up my natural hair journey in the process.

Also, type 4c hair DOES have a curl pattern. Most people refer to the strands as "coils". My hair is mostly 4c with touches of 4b and some 4a around my hair line and edges.

NOTE: Do your research before trying this recipe. Baking soda in particular is very alkaline and using it in excess on your hair can be very damaging.

Hubby was *so impressed* and sis was like "...nah cuz" lmao
😂😂😂 So true! He tried. He’s sweet. Lol
And I was just about to share it in Discord too! I loved this video. 🤣🤣🤣🙌🏾
That was alllloootttt of woorrrkkkkk 🧐😄
😂 That 🧐 emoji! Listen, I saw the list of steps and for some reason thought I could do it in less time. I was wrong. 😂
Latoya: Open dammit.
Google: What do wanna open?
Latoya: Nothing Google.
Google: Okay.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Google is so nosey
Lol... can I tell youuu!😂
😂😂😂😂 Too funny
Yeah Google always responds at the wrong moment and when you need her to respond she don’t 🤦🏽♀️🤣😂 or she’s wrong like wth Google? Lol
Hey hun when mixing the clay never use anything metal. Glass bowl plastic or wooden spoon. ... Btw your video is sooooo funny 🤣
Oh wow, I just researched it. I had no idea. Thank you so much for the tip!
@@LaToyaEbonyHair you are most welcome sister 🥰
LaToya Ebony you should also mix the clay with an acidic liquid as the clay has a high ph with just water. Also an AVC rinse doesn’t clarify, but it will balance you ph, so is best done at the end of any wash day process to help lower/close your cuticles and enhance the shine of your hair. This was fun to watch btw. 😍😍😍 Love your energy. 😍😍😍
Yes! I agree with you 100 percent. As far as the clay, I’m still learning, so thank you so much for the help. I don’t usually DIY my treatments. It’s like a whole new world LOL! 💜💜💜
LaToya Ebony I recommend to use Greenbeauty Channel’s recipe for clay masks on RUclips . Its soooo good, it has the perfect proportions so you don’t have to ‘gestimate’. I love her Channel as well...she so knowledgeable about the scientific and practical aspects of natural hair care and treatments!
"I think this is cold blooded" I never heard this compliment before??? I love it 😍
This was pretty darn interesting indeed. Thank you for sharing 7 hrs of your hair life...its not easy. (and actually filming and moving your camera in every room)
Aww thank you Gloria!! That means so much to me. 🤗❤️
Shout to the wonderful subscribers that recommended I try this method. Without your suggestions, I would have never tried. I’m really interested in the science of haircare, so though I have simple methods that work, I LOVE to learn. You’re all amazing and have helped me learn something new about my hair this week. THANK YOU! ❤️❤️
Thanks for the video! Great results but that’s a lot of work! And you need a bonnet dryer!
LOL! Your hubby is hilarious! He was looking at your hair the way I was looking at it. Wow! Your hair shrinks a lot! I couldn't believe the thumbnail. I guess that I don't have 4c hair because it doesn't shrink much. I subscribed to your channel because you feature your natural hair and do not have channel full of wig reviews. To me, natural hair content creators are disingenuous when they wear wigs most of the time. Please don't change. I love your channel. You're both beautiful and entertaining.
Awww what a sweet comment and compliment. That seriously put a warm feeling in my heart. Thank you. I appreciate you. And welcome to my online family. 💜💜💜
MissJasmine 33, I feel the same way. I have a different hair type (4A/3C) but I am drawn to this channel because she loves her natural hair and showcases it a lot. I big chopped a year ago after years of relaxers to reconnect with my natural hair and so I am looking for a channel that celebrates natural hair. I love my natural hair and I wear it all the time in simple wash and gos and finger coils. I don't care for wigs and weaves, never have and never will. So, I am not drawn to 'natural hair influencers' who live for wigs and weaves.
@@miniminott48 im a 3c/4a too and i big chopped around december 2016 😄my hair is now past bra strap length but while my hair was short i used to say "when my hair gets long ill never wear weaves or wigs only wash and gos" 😂boy was i wrong!! weaves allowed me to take a break from my hair and actually helped it to grow more. Good luck on your hair journey 💕
Shrinkage doesn't always determine pattern. I have 3c, 4a, and 4b and my shrinkage is just as much as hers.
When you threw it all on your head 🤣🤣
🤣 That was the moment I realized...I messed up. 😂
Lol I’m the same way when my wife does something new with her hair
Haha! That’s really sweet 😁
Please be very careful with this method. I know of a few youtubers who have compromised the cuticles of their hair with continued use of this method. The baking soda can eventually raise the cuticle of your hair too much thus casing damage. Tangles could be from the raised cuticles.
I just shampoo and condition my hair regularly (once a week) and apply gel on soaking wet hair. The more I styled my wash n go, the better it go. The hydration level of my hair increased and my wash n go got better and better. I don’t do all this extra stuff, just wash, condition, and style with gel on soaking wet hair. (I put the gel on in the shower).
I agree with you on the baking soda 100 percent! I’m definitely not trying to damage my hair in these streets lol! I’m a believer in simplicity as well. ☺️
You're absolutely right ✅
You use gel only?
Do you only use gel as a leave in
I think ppl use this kind like a texturizer to look like that have loose curls coils
Hi! Your hair looked great! The coils were defined and it appeared the style would last longer than the wash n go you did! Love your personality!
I love your scientific approach to the different combos! Really interesting ^^
You are so brave!!!! Your hair looked great in the end!
Sis this was highly entertaining. But that is as far as it goes for me. I appreciate your adventurous spirit. Keep doing great content. 😍
Yes please incorporate some aspects of this, your hair looked great
Glad I found you. Great tips can’t wait to try gel💯
Hubby is so positive👍
I love your personality and your editing is fire sis.
Always looking for ways to get more moisture but wow that’s a LOT. I just got my routine time down from spending much of the day doing my hair...thanks for sharing!
😬🤗😳 all my emotions watching this. I’m too lazy for that much work. 😂 👏🏾 to you. Hubby is funny. “Did you do this individually?” It was fun to watch though
😆 Thank you sis! I figured it would at least be entertaining. I love y’all! Lol
LaToya Ebony 😂 I sure way. Thank you for doing it for us. We love you 🥰
I loved watching your husband hype your hair up (as he should) 🥰 this routine was so elaborate, def just subscribed and gave a thumbs up. I don't understand how I'm just now discovering your channel.
Omg I love her vibbeeee❤️ so happy I found ur channel. I need some 4c tips. New sub thank you😊
Thanks for the video. I found it very realistic as to how much work some of these methods are. I always wanted to try it, but not any more. Very few ppl know what high porosity hair feels like any l think your comment at the end hit the nail on the head.
I appreciate your input. It’s pretty amazing how unique everyone’s hair is. I’m learning so much more and I’m thankful for thoughtful comments like yours. ☺️
whew chile... bless your heart. i would’ve BEEN gave up. the patience it takes.
🙏🏾 I hung in there for you all!
Feeling inspired by your video!! Thanks girl!
I’m so happy! Yay!!
That's a lot of work, love the results though 😍😍
No one should thumbs down this video. You really took one for the team. #Team4c
This was so fun to watch! 🤣🤣 This is how I felt when I did the second big chop in 2015 and I didn’t even do the full cherry lola treatment. People were always asking if I just washed my hair. So I moved away from it after some time. But the clay washes and the use of hydrolysed protein instead of silk amino acids stayed until today. ☺️
I like your videos and your wash and go's look good on you. I wish mines did I just usually end up braiding it, my hair is not as long as yours so maybe I will like it out when it's longer, don't know. Glad to find someone who I can tell would get similar results as me. A lot of RUclipsrs do not have type 4 hair like they're claiming, you Chezzi Duru and one other channel.
LOL I appreciate you doing this vid for us. Very entertaining, very informative ❤
Your whole family is just adorable!
Aww 🥰 Thank you
The support from husband was everything!
I actually really did laugh watching this. You're dope❤️
It came out amazing! But baking soda is so intense. I was just gonna mention the whole honey is a humectant thing lol Camilla rose curl milk and the curl maker gel is a great option *best done on soaking wet hair in the shower or try the mane choice gelato for a one and done wash n go. A diffuser is definitely a must it just makes life so much easier.
Girl! I thumbs up and subscribed just because of the work you put into this video!
HEEEEYYY 👋🏾 Welcome the the family Queen!!
@@LaToyaEbonyHair thank you!
Loved your hubby's input
You’re very welcome Tiarrea! 💜
I use ACV multiple times a week when I wash n go; it’s my favorite detangler before shampooing or cowashing.
Wow that was alot of work. But thanks for keeping me entertained. Love your spirit. Have you done the rice water rinse was looking at your playlist but did not see anything. See you soon, blessings
I’m on the fence about rice water rinses. I have to do more research tbh. Thank you for the suggestion!!!
You are so entertaining! The Maximum Hydration Method seems like an awful lot of work just to get more curl definition. I think the Dickey method would have been much easier. I love your fro with or without definition. Thanks for being an influencer who clearly loves and celebrates her natural hair at this point of her journey and wears it a lot instead of hiding it under weaves and wigs 99% of the time. We don't have the same curl pattern (my hair is 4A/3C) but I am definitely subscribing because you are a true natural hair channel and I want to be a part of your journey going forward.
Your comment is so sweet. Wow, thank you for taking the time to make me smile. I got all the feels now 🥰 So many of you are recommending the Dickey method 🧐 It’s definitely on my to do list. 😁 Thank you for the suggestion m!
Your makeups looks so good
Stick with works for you! I love your videos. I stan for Mielle products but I don't like that custard either. I use the Ginger Moisture RX styling gel from Mielle on my 4C hair.
👏🏾 💯 Oh interesting. I didn’t know they had another one. I just bought Aunt Jackie’s flaxseed gel...I’m trying it out next time lol! I’m learning so much about my hair...but in all honesty, I love my simple methods best. Low time commitment and effective.
Your content is spectacular!
Why thank you! 🥰
I would’ve given up. U tuff sis that’s what’s up.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I aim to please. 😂
Hell no thats alot of work...😒😒🙄🙄shout out to you latoya🥰
😂 SO much work! I’ve done it though. It’s documented, moving on. 🤣 Thanks for the love. ❤️
You are humorous and have down to earth presentations. I appreciate that you're not trying to vogue, pose with sexy faces, and flirt with me through your videos. Lol
I also have 4c with problematic scalp. Anyhoo, you have a new subscriber 😁
Heeey Stephanie!! 👋🏾 Welcome to the family and thank you for leaving such a sweet comment. 💜
Idk if I ever said but the editing on this video is superb
I love it...this was very entertaining...you look beautiful
Thank you Eva!! ❤️
Got the stuff to make this today and I swear this it what I imagine myself feeling like 🤣🤣I’ve been sitting here for the past hour tryna convince myself to start.. then saw this video 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for doing all these tests for us! You should try using a pomade before u apply the custard. It works nicely to make your hair shiny, seal in moisture and stuff. Your videos are amazing. Love it!!
Oooo interesting, a pomade. I haven’t used one of those in a few years. 🤔
I think a clay mask and AVC does similar things for the hair in terms of achieving the definition. It also seems easier and safer. Great video!
Okay that’s was tooooo much work had me tired watching jk great video. But I’m like you I’m not bout to do this everyday and this is way to long. Who got time for this? Your hubby was funny love it!!!!
Hey LaToya, you should try Aussie moist. The shampoo and conditioner. It gives soooooo much slip, less hair loss aaaaaand the price is reasonable($3-5) hope you get to try it soon. Stay strong! 🤗
Loved it
Thank you Queen! ❤️
🥰😁🤗 Love your videos & high energy! Since time is of essence, I do this monthly clarify hair first, then allow hair to air dry some, then apply the ORIGINAL Cherry Lola Treatment (only 3 ingredients without 🥚🥑🍌 so no chunks!), then use deep conditioner with heat (I sit under a hair steamer), then finish with an ACV and rinse hair with cold 🥶 water. Process takes about 2-3 hours depending on dry time and length of mask application. You could then style as desired. It would also be fun seeing if your hair responds well to the new Jheri curl + gel way of doing a wash and go. I’m kind of terrified to do a wash and go again because it always leads to excess tangles and breakage. However, I may try the Jheri curl + gel method IF the ingredients don’t contain hormone mimickers. Take care!
Thanks for sharing. Too many steps however, please let me know if there is some other way to hydrate my hair like in two steps or less. 🤪
The Honey stuff by Camille is bomb. It does sound like soap but the moisture it helps retain to the truth! Also I love the honey miracle mask by TGIN. My poor hair loves it and I just don’t do it often enough.
Lastly, I recently discovered Almond Marshmallow hydration serum by Eden body works, my hair loves their cowash and this serum does NOT disappoint in the moisture retention department.
The wash and go was cute, it did what it was supposed to do but it’s all about whether or not you like it. ☺️
Great video! Try using a natural gel. The gel makes all the difference. I use flaxseed and Uncle Funky's Curl magic. The first time I did Max Hydration Method, I did it for 7 days straight. Then after that just once a week. Doing it for 7 days taught me A LOT about what my hair needs to show definition. Now my hair is moisture trained and I only do the full method as needed about 2x a year. Also, I do my hair at night, sleep with it wet with the gel (covered with a plastic bag), then wake up, shake, and let it air dry all day.
Omg new viewer and I’m cracking up you’re funny hahahaa and this was a lot of work Ima try a version of this
🙌🏾 Yes because the full version will give you a neck cramp 😂
This seems like it would add another 2 hours to my routine lol.
Giiiirl you’re telling me! 😪
😂😂😂so sorry love for all the stress. What I did for my wash and go for definition was a clay mask( bentonite clay and acv) as a clarifier , deep condition with Aussie moist and ecostyler for style on dripping wet hair in pretty small sections. I started with cantu curl activator cream as a leave in but I forgot it after like 2 small sections 😂. So it was like a regular wash day. kinda. I liked how defined it was 😊. Plus I'm a student so I can't afford to be getting all of those stuff for the cherry Lola 😁😁. Your husband was so shocked at your curls😂.
You should try sectioning the hair in two or four (or more) to help get to the scalp easier and also detangling.
Okay that is quite a lot of process but I must your hair gorgeous, I love it.
Awww 🥰 Thank you sweetie
great video...but no max hydration for me....next just try the mane choice tropical moringa braid out glaze for wash n go pair it with the matching video
I spent like $60+ dollars on that Pomegranate hair line from Sally's when it 1st came out. It was trash for my type 4 hair. I ended up giving the entire line to my coworker. I was livid bc I couldn't find my receipt to take it back. Not to mention it gave me flakes. The only thing I liked about the line was the smell, which some folks would think is too much.
I love your videos. 😍😍😍
That was alot of work. It turned out pretty!
🤗 Thank you!!
Omg! I'm so excited to watch this!
Thank you so much for the suggestion. Don’t mind my jokes. I loved trying it out even though it exhausted me. 😂
@@LaToyaEbonyHair lol! It's time consuming so I like to modify it
Oh really? What do you do instead? I think we’d all be interested to know. I’m curious!
@@LaToyaEbonyHair I do about 2 tbsp baking soda diluted with a low ph conditioner and water. I let that sit on my hair, then I actually shampoo, deep condition and condition as usual. This changed the game for my super low porosity hair! I realized that I don't need every step to get moisture into my hair, and certain steps like the clay make my hair drier.
Oh wow! Thank you for the tips!! I see that you have a RUclips channel. I’m going to watch your video on the method. THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL!!!
A plus for effort. I would have stopped after the banana thingy stuff. Your husband is very supportive.
😂 That banana was getting on my nerves. And yes my husband is so sweet. He really tries!
This was exhausting to watch. I loved your hair and this video is hilarious. Can’t see myself doing all this
Girl, exhausting is definitely the word. I was SPENT! 😂
I'm a lazy natural so I'm gonna stick with my LOC method. And lately I'm not a natural who's too hung up on curl definition. I love frizz and volume for my fine hair. But your hair is gorgeous, I look at it the way your hubby does it's magical!! 😆😍
Also, you have the tiniest ears they're so cute!! Lol
I’m the same way tbh. So happy you joined me today. Haha (ears) thank you!!
I just hollered watching this video!!! It reminded me of myself while experimenting with my hair!! If you haven’t (and not saying do this method again) Cherry Lola actually has a RUclips channel with her tutorial. She is the creator of it and she gives the science behind the method. I’m scared to try it though 😂 (bought the ingredients, I ate them instead 🤷🏽♀️)
YOU ATE THEM?!!! 🤣🤣🤣 that was hilarious. Yes! I found her channel while doing my research. She hasn’t posted in like 7 years. 🤔 Her method is much simpler. Only three ingredients. This is a mix of her method and the caramel treatment. It’s very interesting.
I agree with your hubby. To me your curl definition is the bomb despite the process not being perfect.
Before you buy any more products use what you have on hand. All three are applied to each section before
moving on to the next. First a gel/custard, then Eco Gel and last a mousse.
Looks like the "wash n go" has become the natural standard to aspire to and for many of us super coily girls,
that is a frustrating process. I'm only 7 months into my bigchop journey and wrote it off as a total loss.
But when miss Kimberly Cherrell did her 5-6 part video series a few weeks ago, I got inspired and gave it a try.
I have coily, coily (4C) hair and got AMAZING super super defined results. The combo I used is super super crunchy.
But it works and lasted me for two weeks. I am now on team wash n go. I used my combo after a regular shampoo + deep
condition and still got AMAZING defined results. My raking combo is first Eco Olive, then Alikay Lemongrass styling gel
and last using a mousse.
Wow that’s amazing!! 🙌🏾 I’m so happy you tried it. So many people (like me) would write it off and say my hair cousin to do it. It can be done!! That’s why I tried it. I proved my assumptions wrong.
I do the LCO method with liquid (can just be the water from washing my hair), texture ID curling cream, and then oil. I then seal it all with wetline extreme gel. I get a lot of definition and I don’t have to refresh/moisturize my hair or anything for the week until I wash it again.
I’m hearing about this wetline gel so much. I think I saw it at target. When I’m done with what I just bought, I’ll check it out. Thank you so much for sharing your tips!
Hi honnestly you should try the Anthony Dickey method which is VERY SIMPLE and fast compare to this. You absolutely don't need all those steps and products. Plus he has a video on RUclips where he shows exactly how to do it. I used to do it a lot when my hair was shorter and I am all about simplicity when it comes to my 4c hair. That's the only wash and go method which has ever worked for me and IT IS SIMPLE!
I’m all about simplicity too. You’re like the 5th person to recommend his method, so I’m taking notes. 🙌🏾
The first time she said “Hey loves" sounds cool. 🤓
Coils are beautiful
The adjustment process to a new method always varies from hair to hair.. We are experimenting like scientists! 😊 But...I try to stick with what works for me. 💁♀️
Yes! Experimenting is fun. I learn so much by doing new things. I’m interested in the science of haircare, so I’m the best guinea pig. As long as I’ve researched and know it won’t truly hurt my hair, I can always go back to my tried and true. 🤗
Can make a video addressing your texturized 4c hair
OMG... This is so much work!!..🤣🤣🤣... I've done this cherry Lola treatment in my life, and I said never again. Going in and out of the shower multiple times... I hate that. But your results are definitely waaaaay better than mine. Mine ended up with a minichop because I didn't mix in the baking soda to a safe pH level.
Oh wow 😳 Yeah some of these ingredients can be harder. The funny thing is, the original Cherry Lola method is only 3 ingredients. They combined this and the caramel treatment for this method. All the food in the mix took me for everything I have. 😂
@@LaToyaEbonyHair 🤣🤣🤣🤣.... But experiments are great. You do something, of it works good for you, if it doesn't, you move on. I'd love to hear your final thoughts on the treatment, but please be easy with the baking soda... I can't take another big chop from you
yeah, thanks for persevering because i would have stopped after the banana mixture, too much work for me. I shampoo and condition/co-wash depending on the week, then deep condition, leave in condition, custard/cream and gel. The Mielle is great, but its not a gel, its for definition, shine and moisture, thats why it kept your hair shrunken, eco styler is a gel that would stretch the curls. I would do mielle then eco styler, so you get shine, definition, stretch and moisture, it doesn't flake if you use it properly too. I love all your videos, even though we don't have the same hair type so to speak, I am low porosity, high density too, but even still I just like watching your videos.
Tried an apple cider vinegar rinse for the first time and my hair is the softest it’s ever been. So I’m in love, terrified by the baking soda because I can’t go back to that life... but I bought all the stuff to start the max hydration method because I was so impressed by the apple cider vinegar rinse... 😅
Hey, type 4 wash and goes can be so tricky to master. Trust it took me years of trial and error. From personal experience with my type 4 hair I know less works better for me. Shampoo, Deep Condition, Style with strong hold gel. Repeat weekly.
Same here.
My 4c hair loves that tingly Mielle Babasu conditioner too. I also get the same feel using Design Essential Rosemary and Mint Stimulating Super Moisturizing Conditioner (and you get a MUCH bigger jar for the price). As far as everything else in this vid, I can't put food or anything that has the consistency of food in my hair because it hates it and just ends up dry and sticky, and it gives me an itchy scalp. Plus you're right that was WAY too much work lol
I did this today and it took me 6 hrs but I completely eliminated the baking soda and added aloe juice; and to the cherry Lola I also added charcoal powder. My hair feels great but I would still only do this once a month.
All I can say is wow.
Hahahaha I have naturally high porosity hair and that cricket analogy hit but hurt!
Giiiirrrrrl, my husband has high porosity hair. It feels completely different than low porosity...he also doesn’t take care of it the way he should lol! But this experiment was eye opening. It will help me help others over time.
I have 4c hair, looks just like yours. I use Photogenic. Makes my curls POP! Sometimes i pair it with Wetline gel and oil, but it's not necessary. But I use whatever shampoo/conditioner I pick up. Take a look at Photogenic
Heeey! 👋🏾 I think you suggested Photogenic on the last video too. Your comment has been saved and I can’t wait to look into it. Thank you for your recommendations!
That was just too much work! Sorry you went thru that! You had so much patience!
Yeah, it was definitely a lot 😂
i tried this method using the lola, or cola step only. Did not do the second step. I used organic baby food bananas instead of a regular banana. Also did not use egg or avocado. I used Aphogee amino acid blend instead of braggs amino acids. loved the consistency of the baby food banana and the aph
ogee amino acid blend. All my other ingredients were the same as suggested. it turned out well but it was time consuming even with eliminating the 2nd part which is the mud mask. Loved the results. Willing to do it again but doubt it becoming a part of my regular routine.Too time consuming. Im trying to simplify my hair routine as much as possible
Giving me mowry sisters vibes, i love it
Your hair is really pretty
Thank you ❤️
You can find a gently used over the head dryer for $30 or less on FB Marketplace. I never have to go to work w a wet head. My hair dries in 15 min w no frizz.
Oh wow, I’ve never thought to use FB marketplace for something like that...I’m actually rarely on Facebook. Great idea.
Could I use the “Shae Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strength & Restore Treatment Masque” Or does it have to be that specific diy hair mask (that you used)?
When I do my wash n go I use Kinky Curly leave in conditioner, Hawaiian Silky gel activator and then castor oil on top...My hair looks like I have a Jheri curl and it lasts all week... All I have to do is wet my hair to refresh my curls...
Girl, that is work.
Mielle curling custard with extreme wetline jel works magic
Mixed?! 🧐🤔🤗 Gotta write that down lol
I did MHM for a little while years ago. My hair has retained moisture and stretch so much better every since then. Now I can just do the cherry lola and boom hair is moisturized and has a little hang time. I don't even need the conditioner
This channel gives me life 😹😹😹
YAAASSS! We are here SERVING hunty! 😂😂
Sis, when you do a wash and go, you can do the LOC method and use wetline extreme gel. Also try raking or shingling the gel in
A few of you have said Wetline. I’m definitely writing that down. Thank you!!
