awesome demonstration. I love the fact you got to the point without a long intro. Great video.
I've only tried shingling once, the curls were beautiful but the shrinkage was insane
Raking is my Favorite because it’s quicker but both methods came out beautiful 💕
Erykah Jackson exactly
When you have a TWA, the shingling method is best for a more defined look. Once your hair grows out of the TWA stage, the taking method is better. That’s just what I’ve experienced in my hair journey.
I don't know. I recently tried raking over shingling and my curls look way better. i wanted to wear my natural curl pattern, so raking was perfect while shingling created tighter, but more defined curls. I prefer the volume and natural definition that raking gives me.
Whats twa

Hands down the BEST tutorial on both methods I’ve come across! Thank you 🙏🏾 As a complete beginner I think I’ll brave it and go for the raking method 1st.
I love the shingling method for my 4 type hair. I do a combination of shingling and coiling. I do it so often to the point where it takes me 30mins to complete my entire head. It just looks better, imo.
Another things I like about your videos is its not like so many others, where people go way overboard, with what I call, an I'm so pretty dance, attitude, and/ or dress. When watching those "overboard" videos I'm often reminded of being told that a person should be pretty and know but not pretty and show it. That is how you are, beautiful and confident and I like that.
Definitely agree...and the sticking out of the tongue and jester dancing, extra long music intro, please, get to the quality content already. Most of the time, I simply can't, but like you, I enjoyed her video.
I agree... that face making and dancing annoys me for some reason
Great vid. Thanks. My take away is that for tighter curls or less naturally defined, shingling would work best. For bigger or more naturally defined curls, raking 😀
I love them both but I prefer the raking method! I have fine hair and I need volume and that little frizz to make it big! Gorgeous hair!
Thank you!!
Yea me too I need as much volume as I can probably get
I agree and love all your positive comments as they voiced my thoughts while watching.
Thank you
I love how some people can just rub conditioner on the surface of their hair and be like “ahhh, that’ll do.”
Carolina Blue seriously. You gotta get inside.
Carolina Blue exactly that’s me
That’s me 😬😂
Carolina Blue I wish I could do that lol my hair would laugh at me the next day full of frizz and dryness.
Frl😂😂
I rake, shingle and finger coil my hair all at once lol
GIRL DOES IT TAKE YOU 20 HOURS TO DO YOUR HAIR!??
Please give me the names of the products that you use to the raking and shingling curls, thank you
Same sis
Same girl 😂
Tameka Teasley WOW!!!
When my hair was shorter, I happily raked. But now my hair has grown considerably, shingling gives me the best results. It takes a little longer yes but my wash and go lasts a really loooooooong time!
Erian Jeffers yes!!!!!! Shingling makes my wash n goes last so long!!!
How long? Hours or Days?
Raquel Watanasrimongkol shingling? It takes me about an hr but it depends on how thick your hair is... finally.amber here on yt takes 30 min to do hers and hazel godesss (caaliyah) takes 2 hrs😂😂so it depends
beau knows88 I always lose patience and give up after 30 minutes. 😂 Mine is 4c so I’m gonna give my self 2hrs and try this again. Your hair is beautiful!!
Raquel Watanasrimongkol 🤗🤗🤗 and yea you have to find someone on here w/ your type of curl pattern and see the techniques they use. Wash n goes are about technique and realizing your curl pattern is yours. Sometimes ppl watch videos (im victim) and say oh my hair was a fail bc it didnt look like that and thats unrealistic.
Thanks for educating us on these techniques! Very helpful
Wow I thought I was doing the shingling method 😂 smh I was raking the whole time. Well I guess I prefer the raking but I’ll try the shingling method 👌🏾👌🏾
I just tries the shingling method and for the first time my wash and go turned out great.😁 thank you
Very informative!!! It's crazy to see the raking method has more volume, great video
Depends on how your curl pattern and texture of the hair
When you came back with the dry hair…. The colorrrrrrrsssss are so pretty. Everything turned out beautiful!!
I like both of them, now that you explained them, however, mostly do the Raking method, due to time and work and everything else, but considering the fact that the shilling method is tighter and it last longer, O think they both have their purpose so I will use both when necessary. Thanks a bunch girl, and your hair is the bomb.
Raking looks better because more volume. Frizz doesn't bother me either, it just adds to the volume. Also love how quick raking is.
I really learned some things from this video. I didn’t know about shingling and taking. I think I lean more towards raking. When I do a fresh wash and go, on my very wet hair, I apply mixture of Mixed Chicks and Shea Moisture Caster Oil smoothie leave in conditioners. I don’t use any kind of butter (maybe I should). Then I section my hair and apply Camille Rose curl maker. After doing these things, I use a large tooth comb and my Denman brush to distribute the products through my hair. I also lean my head to the left, right and backwards using my Denman brush in a some what upward direction (I’m trying to encourage volume). Then I shake my hair from side to side, forward and backward. Curls form on their own. It takes a long time to dry but I like it.
THANK YOU for this explanation! I am wrestling with my comfort zone of straightening my hair out with heat and going natural. Your explanation helps me to feel confident trying these methods and understanding what to expect from them!
Also - your hair is beautiful, as are you!
This is my first time watching but I love the racking. I like that it gives volume and a little bit of frizz is fine... it is "natural"..
This was such a fun experiment to watch! I love the raking side. I also have very little time. Your hair looks like the bomb, Queen!
I like the raking method because it is quicker and I have no patience. The shingling looks great as well. This is a wonderful tutorial.
Why when I do the shingling method or the raking method my hair shrinks to an Afro!!!!? There is no length! It just shribbles up like a raisin !
My to
Finger coil it
U have what U have!!!! Everyone doesn't have length! In 1 state it is longer, another; natural length!!
Who pic yo hair look *BONE STRAIGHT* 😑
@@donttouchmyhair9636 not everyone puts their face as their pic. She obviously knows the behaviour of natural hair and was just sharing her own. Bye🤣🤣🤣
raking, for the fullness is what I like best
Wow will definitely try both ways. Love the curls and the earings too
Just began to transition to natural hair...thank you for explaining the difference between “raking” and “shingling!” THANK YOU! And...you and your hair, BEAUTIFUL!
Thanks for giving examples of both methods. Most videos don’t explain the method being used.
Your hair is beautiful! I find that when my hair is soaking, dripping wet I have the best results with any product that I use. I've tried shingling and raking with dripping wet hair both work better. I even add more water while adding products. I stand on a towel because its messy. But the results are phenomenal!
Very nice ! I’m washing and about to style my hair with these products! I used too much product last time and theirs is helpful. Thank you !
I like both sides, but if I had to choose it would be the raking side ❤️
I love the raking method, and now I even start doing the raking method when I apply my deep conditioner and my results are amazing.
Loved this comparison video. I’ll have to give shingling a try.
Great video. Thanks for taking the time to make it for us, that were curious about the difference in methods.
Shingling method showed more definition. This tutorial was very helpful. Your hair is beautiful in it's natural state!
This was a thorough explanation of both methods. Thank you! Step by step.
I'm impressed with how fast the raking takes. Girl as soon as i'm able I'll be buying every product you mentioned I will, and i'm going to try both method. I'm so tired of wearing a "silverish" plain looking afro. Honestly I really don't know how to do my own hair. I would need you to do any makeup on me (smiles) because I don't wear nor know how to correctly apply makeup. Thank you so much for sharing and you explained it all so well.
I absolutely love your hair and this video was the best I have seen whether on RUclips or Instagram. Please, you got to tell me how would the same exact method work under a hair dryer. I was thinking of trying this but need advice first. Thanks.
Love your hair....I like the raking method😊
Thank you for your straight to the point - very informative video. I appreciate it.
As most of us Corona has given me no other choice but to do my hair (which I've never done). Kudos RUclips! I've done raking, I like it (quick). Going to try shingling today. Thanks for sharing!
I'm so glad I found you! Your video is GREAT! I think I liked the shilling better. I'm going to try it this weekend. I'm struggling with finding the right products. My hair is always SUPER dry!!
How do you care for your hair during the week to make it last?
I love both sides on you. I prefer the shingling method on my hair because of the definition then once it dries I do the banding method and it last me a full week.
Shes TheOne what’s the banding method? I’m still trying to navigate my TWA after my big chop and the shingles never last for me :(
daniamz Method of stretching the hair. They have videos on it
I AM SHE SHE IS I Thanks!
daniamz. You've probably found it already but here's an example: ruclips.net/video/0ZeX5RmWxQg/видео.html
Hey Alisha...I first wanted to say I love both of your channels...You have a beautiful family as well☺..Ok when I do my wash and go's I like the ranking method the best for me...It takes days for my hair to dry when I shingle. I don't put heat on my hair so you know that's a pain..Also, my shrinkage is horrible when I shingle...So no shingles for me unless I am going for a shorter look...
I feel you girl! The shrinkage is TOO REAL when I shingle. Lol
Demo is great. Thank you. But, can you do a demo on your makeup application! Beautiful and flawless!
I love both! I’ve always used the raking method. How do you maintain at night?
I like both methods. Thanks for your very detailed explanations.
alisha,I like shingling because you can always work the curls your hair is so pretty
Debbie McMichael thank you so much!
Did the shingling method today took me forever. I also finger coiled. Cant wait to see how it looks when its dried though. I hope the style stays for a few days.
I love this video exactly what I needed to guide me. Thank you Sis!
Hello. I'm late to the video but I love the raking method and the idea of using my hand by finger combing my hair. I just recently did the coiling method as of 11/22. Thanks for sharing
Raking for sure, Thank You for such good videos I just cut my hair two weeks ago and I’m in love with my hair
I love how the raking looks
Im so glad i found this video I never knew there was a difference i just thought girls were using different words to explain the same technique like ( fast & quick); i thought. ( shingling, raking, praying hands etc) were all the same thing never noticed a difference until you pointed one out. Thanks
I prefer the raking method. Love your curl pattern and earrings..Where are they from?
Thanks for the demo. I like the volume you achieved with the raking method.
Your curl pattern is so beautiful. You’re so beautiful. ♥️😍
Thank you!!
Z Bella Cutabulous!
AlishaWilliams cutabulous
I prefer raking because it's quick, but I want to try shingling so my style will last longer. You hair turned out nicely. Thanks.
I really like the shingling method. I get that hangtime and my curls are popping. It last for a week and almost no frizz.
Your hair is beautiful. I prefer the raking method for my hair. Thank you for posting this video.
Our hair looks similar 😍 but girl raking is a no go for me. The only way I can get my hair to last at least a few days is by shingling... thanks for sharing! New subbie! ❤️
me too! i can get a week out of my hair if i shingle....
Raking seems faster and I’m lazy and want my natural hair to be as effortless as possible soo I’m going with raking but the shingling has better defintion
Great video! It made me realize why my hair has been flat this week. I normally rake but I shingled my wash n go more than normal this week. I definitely prefer raking.
Any chance you could provide the list and order of the products you use and the type of hair you have...4a,b,c or 3a,b,c. Thank you and I loved both sides!!
I have to stay away from shingling because my curls get super tight leaving no length what so ever.
myisha swearengin Me too! My shrinkage is insane! 😆
myisha swearengin true... my wash n goes have longevity and i just pineapple or band to stretch
This is so me. Yes, I get great curls, but the shrinkage is insane. And no matter how carefully I try to separate or stretch after, I get frizz.
@@beaubeauknows3620 band method works better for me as the pineapple stretches out in some places but shrinks in other places causing my shape to look ridiculous
I like both, I think the shingling side is best, I'm going to try this as I don't have time for a twist out today x
Excellent video! Very informative yet consise! Gorgeous hair!
My 4c ends is unsure about this shingling method😂 can’t wait to try it
how was it?
I have never did a wash n go but I do rake products in my hair as oppose to shingling.
I love the look of both, but because I am always pressed for time, the raking method is preferred.
I liked the shingling side better after you gave it move volume and I like the fact that the finished look wasn't as frizzy as the raking side.
Awesome video! Thank you so much! Trying both this weekend to see what works best for me.
Thanks for doing this. I don't see enough of a difference between the two to do the shingling method. It's too time-consuming.
I love both, but the definition of the Shingling side looks nice.
Great tutorial; one of the best on RUclips...how do you maintain the shingle method of the wash & go daily? You said in your videos it lasts one week. How do you refresh it?
love the shingling side, and your makeup is so lovely
Once styling and separating the curls occurs it's all relatively the same. Cute🌷
Thank you for the demonstration great job. I like volume the raking is faster.
Love your curls, also new subbie, I use the racking method my curls are more defined but when it dries the shrinkage is crazy, but after its dries the volume kicks in, my hair is more of curly/coily type. Love your videos, going to try the shingling method. Love it!!❤❤😘😘
It depends if you you want more volume or more definition. I like the Raking method better and I would just deal with frizziness. My curls are super super super tiny where you cant even see them so the raking works better for me
Got to say that your curls came out looking awesome with both methods in my opinion. But the main thing I wanted to say was, thank you for this video. Because I've finally learned about another method for defining my curls other than the raking approach. Which I still kind of like. Just I think for right now with my hair type and still figuring things out since going natural. The raking method, just is not quite what I need. But I think with a better curl definer and more practice with the shingling approach(as well as a bit more time in doing it, lol), I may have found a way to get my coils back. Thanks again. :D
I have 4 c hair and the shingling helps my hair dry more stretched and defines the curl. The raking will have me walking around with a fro although my hair is the same length as this video.
I love my wash and go! I have seen a few of your videos, ❤❤ after watching this- I'm a new subbie!🎶 I've learned some key information here today. Thank you CURLFRIEND 🙌 This has explained so much to me, as far as how and why my hair turns out the way it does. I mean I love it, but I can't wait until wash day to perfect it. 👍ROCK ON👑
Raking... and didn't realize that is what I was doing. Great video
I rake my hair and now I see why it have frizz!! Thank you for this beautiful video 🤗🤗
I love both styles. I really love the lip color!
both techniques seem very interesting to me. I have never tried the products, I usually use shea Butter products because i love the moisture and because my hair absorbs quickly. Thanks you for the info, and by the way your make-up was beautiful.
First, I love your videos, thank you!! Second, I love your hair, and make up. Last but not least, I am about to big chop my hair. I would like to know if you can offer a suggestion as starter products to curl my hair naturally. Thank you, and keep up the excellent work.
This is so informative! Love it
*Thank you for an awesome comparison! I will try the raking method this is*
This video is PERFECT. Thanks.
Thank you, I've just learned something!
Great video!! I will try this tonight.
Normally I rake but on special occasions I shingle for more definition and longevity.
You're so pretty! your makeup is on point!!
also thanks a lot for this tutorial!
I just love these hair channels, so many pretty ladies Wow!
Its frizz Oman the racking side because of how you applied the products. It was more so sitting on top rather in between like the shingling side. But thank you much for this vid. Definitely helped
I would love if you could answer! 🙏🏽 How do you preserve your curls overnight without flattening them? I found that for shorter hair, my hair gets flattened even in a pineapple
Is curling custard like gel?
Love this video, very helpful. I want to but everything tomorrow and try this.
