[@d.wrighttv6916]

I'm telling you " Mini Pineapples" put your hair in like 4-5 loose ponytails. It stops the hair from matting at the root and smooshing on your head at night, stretches the hair and you still have curl definition esp on the ends. THANK ME LATER lol 😆

[@kpookiejo3034]

Omg this is such great advice! I've been putting my hair in 2 loose puffs under my bonnet at night. I'm on day 4 and the shrinkage isn't too bad. I dnt have any matting at the roots. And I dnt think the knots are any worse than a twist out. I think she's right about ppl not liking the shrinkage 🤔🧐. I stayed away from wash and gos for years because of talk regarding shrinkage. I tried banding my hair but I dnt like how it looks or feel. It's like the hair bands soak up the moisture in my hair and dries it out. So the mini pineapples are a great idea. I'm going to try 5 tonight😁

[@sassyqueen9739]

Ty for the tip

[@ceciliakaijage9831]

so true I did my ends very moisturized e

[@martylopia]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! I’ve come to notice that many naturals only show their day 1 or 2 hair and not the entire week. Then when I try it my hair is dry af and feel alone. This is a very realistic look at what our hair is really like and how it can behave. I appreciate this!

[@supernova7063]

😂😂....when you took off the bonnet and was like, “ohw!” , I felt that. I am NOT even gonna try this one. My hair is just like yours and your result is good enough for me.

[@anad7953]

Girlllll....I feel your pain! As an all inclusive type 4(abcdefgh etc) it took me all 5 yrs of being natural to find a wash n go routine that worked for me. I can’t just put her in a bonnet and go to bed (and yes I did say her 🤣). I can’t even do one big pineapple to the front). For it not to look like one big mass and not to be in the shower every other night I have to either do a low ponytail to the back at night then in the morning while getting ready put it in a pineapple toward the front. Once dressed shake her free, aid some oil and fluff-> then I’m good to go. For max stretch I band about 6 sections but not too tight at all b/c I kinda like my edges 😇. The wash n go 🤦🏽‍♀️...it’s like having a part-time job when you try to perfect it. Thumbs up on your content!

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

I like having edges too girl! 😂 I like your bedtime techniques! It’s definitely taking me a while, but I love that I can share the process with everyone in an area I don’t know too well. It’s sometimes frustrating, but overall really fun. 😊

[@melw8319]

Yes!!! Wash n go is all about trial and error especially with us type 4 girls!!!! Overtime you will learn what your hair needs and wants! Yes you cant go light handed with the products especially with a wash go!🤗

[@keamber.vaughn]

Few things that helped me perfect my wash n go after hating them the first 9 years I was natural (kinda lengthy) First though, hair deets (spongy texture, 4b curl pattern with some 4a, low porosity, mainly fine and medium strands, high density) 1. Wetline is the best gel. Hands down 2. My hair turns out 100000x better when it’s NOT done on soaking wet hair (I know, sounds crazy) because the gel sits on top of my hair (low porosity) if my strands are full of water and leave in. 3. After shampooing, When it’s time to style: I break my hair down into 6 sections while my conditioner is sitting in my hair as I shower (Mane Choice Cheers Conditioner + Suave Coconut = protein/moisture balance and helllla slip). With each section I do the following: A) Thoroughly rinse out the conditioner from the section - split section in half and finger detangle while conditioner rinses out- repeat on other subsection B) ring out ALL of the excess water from the entire section C) Apply a quarter size amt of the Mane Choice Leave In (Original 3 in 1 conditioner) D) Break the section into 2 and apply the gel from root to tip -avoiding the scalp- and shingle instead of finger comb. I literally just allow my hair to show me where the curls want to break apart and I smooth that curl down. E) Repeat on the whole section F) repeat on entire head 4. Sit under the dryer for 45 mins 5. Spray a little oil sheen on hair - the oil will help to break the gel cast but if you want it to last 7 days without getting too soft don’t do this step 6. Blow dry/stretch the roots in sections (usually only takes 20-30 seconds per section IF THAT) 7. IMPORTANT STEPS to preserve style...A)don’t use a bonnet use a scarf - bonnets allow your hair to move too much and will smush your hair in places you don’t want it to. With a scarf you’re laying your hair down the way it’s going to lay anyway. This also prevents you from having to spray your hair to reshape it B) DONT SPRAY WITH WATER lol - water makes your hair swell back up and lose definition - Each morning I put a dime size amount of oil in my hands and gently pull my hair back into shape I redo this every 4 days. Only takes about 45 mins to go from shampoo to styled. If I didn’t have seborrheic dermatitis my wash n go would last 7 days before it needs to be redone again. I HAVE to do the whole process in the shower because my hair takes better to the wash n go when it’s done immediately after the water is wrung out of the section.

[@desireec1501]

I second this I pretty much do the same exact thing and it works! I'm 4b/4c hair fine/medium strands, low/medium density and low porosity. I actually co wash with as I am cowash every other day and that helps greatly with scapl build up and moisture levels. I think I can say I am now a wash and go girl especially for the summer!

[@Alexis-ov5ou]

Omg this helped me so much

[@hshel2063]

I have seborrheic dermatitis and I shampoo twice week lol. The Kinky Curly Curling Custard doesn't mess with my scalp much. I avoid oils like the plague lol.

[@ravinj8625]

Mine come out great but they only last about 3 days! Do mini pineapples 4-5 section, preferably banding method. At night. Don’t sleep on a bunched up wash n go, when you have 4b/c hair 😆. I learned the hard way

[@Jesuisrlsmpes]

You definitely did not fail... you did well...a wash n go, should be an effortless easy hair do, however for us tightly coiled gals, we MAY be able to achieve the wash n go, but is it worth it? It costs us A LOT.....time, product, tangles, all that and it only lasts 2 days... for me it's not worth it at all... But to each his/her own... im totally with you on the moisturised twists tho...I love these hair series you're doing, keep em coming hun!

[@jenniferclayborne365]

Ok. I thought it was just me. I'm going through "The Change" too. I find that one good hot flash will destroy a wash & go or twist out, leaving me severely tangled and fairy knots. So I keep mine in protective styles 90 percent of the time.

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

I love trying these wash n gos, but protective and low manipulation styles are the best at keeping my hands out of my head lol!! 🥰 Thank you (baby)

I loved seeing your son! 😍😍 He was clearly the star of this video. We're all on this journey together! Keep up the great content and continue to do what works for you. With my hair being as short as it is from my chop the other day...wash n gos are everything. I don't do everything in there shower though...I keep my deep conditioner covered with a plastic cap and a heat cap for 20 minutes. Then the leave in and oils then a cream... Then take my spay bottle and mist generously then the gel... Brush through with my Denman and I'm good to go. I let it air dry. Take care sis! PS you have created a safe space for sistahs to dialogue and share hair struggles and triumphs. THANK YOU!!!

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

I LOVE that wash n gos work so well for you!! I also love that we can have a dialogue sharing tips without bashing other people’s process. This is definitely a safe space! I won’t give up on the wash n gos. I think they’re really pretty and can be convenient, if a person can find the right technique and timeline for refreshing that works for them. 😊

[@mikdraw]

I hit the subscribe button after hearing you say that you love shrinkage. Me too! So many naturals talk about shrinkage like it is evil and to be avoided at all costs. I think it is part of my hair's personality. I have learned more by watching 3 of your videos than I have watching hundreds of other natural hair videos. We have different hair types, but you have taught me a lot. Thank you!

[@JessieBanana]

I don’t think anyone expects WnGs to last 7 days, so I wouldn’t exactly call it a fail. I average about 3-4 days. I have type 3c/4a and my cousin is like 3a/3b and we don’t try for that amount of time. I don’t think anyone does 🤷🏾‍♀️. Your hair does have to be dry before you pineapple or it will clump.

[@jazzip]

I like how quickly you do updates. I watched an Anthony Dickey video after yours the other day. There was one thing that stuck out. The kinkier your hair is, the less time can go by without redoing the technique. I will try it sometime this week. Anywho, I forgot to subscribe the other day, will do it now.

[@mnqolivia]

The other thing I found is that deep conditioning regularly definitely helps. The first time I did a wash and go it turned out slightly defined but dry. I saw a big difference in results after I deep conditioned weekly- improved moisture and definition. I cant manage washing my hair as often as the dickey method requires but I shampoo and deep condition weekly and the style lasts until my next shampoo.

[@meekmenace]

I’ve been lurking so I subscribed. Plus I feel you on the extra sensitive scalp. AVC has really been a friend.

Why do you do the Anthony Dicky Method WNG like you did with cowash but on day 2-4 use the banding method it stretches w/o heat and to me the look comes out so much better....Don't give up on the WNG please I love seeing your type 4c in WNG I can appreciate my hair more❤

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

I won’t give up, Mavis!! I really like the look too. I think I’m gonna stretch the refresh out longer and try banding. I just need a gel that doesn’t trigger my scalp condition. 😪 I won’t give up though!

[@MissKeKeBLUE]

@@LaToyaEbonyHair I have sebhorreic dermatitis and can totally see how air drying sopping wet low porosity hair filled with dripping product would reflare the scalp. Do you think that using a hooded dryer or soft bonnet would help so that the product is drying before it can really seep into the scalp?

[@denyshadials5702]

On the days I’m not redoing my wash n go, I uncover my hair, clip it out of the way and let the steam from the shower refresh it. When I’m done, I dry my shoulders, unclip my hair, shake it out and it falls right back into place. No spraying no picking. I’m really liking this series ☺️.

Man I love my fellow type 4 naturals with my whole heart! We spend so much time and money troubleshooting, but you will get there. I usually tie my hair up and away from my face to go to bed, securing it with a couple of rectangular scarves. In the morning i take the scarves off and mostly just shake my hair out, and let it fluff up from the humidity of the day.

YAAASSS ZIVA!! 👏🏾 Did you try the Anthony Dickey Method?

[@sheneesie]

😬 you need more product lol. Glad you figured that out. Using enough product helps to keep the curls defined and prevents tangling and matting. Ppl don’t really like crispy-crunchy hair, but having a couples days of crunch at the beginning of the weeks makes the wash n go last for 7 days. My fav gel is uncle funky’s curly magic and I top with i create hold by Innersense. Both are botanical gels without many weird ingredients. My scalp is kind of sensitive. I cannot go past 7 days, or my scalp will be an itchy mess. I style the same way you did, in the shower. But I pay close attention to production saturation and distribution. Dry under a hooded dryer or with a diffuser. My wash day plus detangling and styling in a wash n go takes about 45 minutes and about another 45 minutes to get about 85% dry. Then I let the rest air dry. It gets easier and faster with more practice. 💛

[@jenniferclayborne365]

Isn't it great that we can shampoo & condition, then start over when something we try backfires or is an epic fail? I've done it many times when something didn't work for me and my hair.

[@emeff959]

Hey, love! Got a pro tip for ya... instead of using a bonnet, separate your hair into two sections (down your normal part line), LOOSELY secure each section in a low pouf, and wear a tighter cap that kinda smashes your hair down. When you wake, pull off your cap, loosen the poufs, LIGHTLY spray your hair with water and shake! I swear on my great great Aunty Benjamin's grave this works!

[@antoinettechevalier2453]

M F I second your advice - except for the light water spray to style (that would revert mine too fast). But I highly recommend sectioning in 2 low puffs before bed, and covering w a satin scarf tied down securely (instead of the bonnet). I wake up, release the two puffs, style w my fingers etc and it’s usually a “win”.

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Thank you for the tips!! I’ll try them next time. 🥰😘

[@NaturallyKayD]

I wasn’t a big fan of how my hair turned out with wash n gos until I watched Kimberly Cherrell’s wash n go series. Even though my texture is different from her’s, the methods are working. I do use a good bit of product, but I don’t put it on my scalp, and working in small sections helps my type 4 curls get great definition...that lasts for days too.

I had to use the dryer the next morning too! It looked good but I got a lot of knots!🤔 I have only done it twice in a year. I can’t do the redo every two days either. I re-moisturize on days 2 - 4 and then the puff comes out until I put it back in twists🤣. Ain’t nobody got time for all that! ( At least my 4c hair doesn’t😪). Great video!

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

🙌🏾😊

[@wannabe41]

I love that you tried this! I have type 4 hair, but fine strands and medium density. I love the Dickey method because I get great definition and it’s easy. But type 4 naturals should not keep their wash and go for more than 4 days max. Too much dryness and tangles trying to stretch it longer than that. I might let my hair partially air dry but I have to use a dryer. No way I’m leaving my hair that wet for too long. I might sit under a hooded dryer and then dry my roots with a blow dryer or I might air dry for a few hours and then use a diffuser. I put my hair into about 6 mini pineapples to preserve the style or I might band it in sections if I want more stretch. I prefer the more botanical gels such as Kinky Curly Curling Custard, Uncle Funky’s Curly Magic or CRN’s Curl Maker for the Dickey method. I get medium hold that lasts 3 to 4 days, great definition and shine and they don’t dry out my hair like stronger hold gels. Keep at it! You’ll get there.

[@mrsbrownsugarsweetz]

I’m grateful for ur video. New subscriber. Ppl don’t feel my pain when I talk about how I can’t use everything on my head because it makes my scalp itch. It’s soooo aggravating because I can’t keep a style long. Gel, spritz, let’s jAm, etc makes my head itch like crazy. Somebody needs to make a product for ppl with 4c hair, sensitive scalp, and extra dry thin strands.

[@TWILL50]

I wish could chat, we have the exact same hair texture, density, coil type. I became natural in 2013 and it’s 2020 and I just figured out how to do a wash n go on our hair type/texture. Girl, you have to diffuse… or you will have damp hair for days. I’ve thought about investing in the Dyson dryer…. but the coins, the coins. Seriously, I want to tell you what I do, but too much to type, but I can get to last a week or more. Seriously! I wish I could upload a pic to you.

[@sheronthesomm]

Umm yep that method really does take a lot of product and works better and last longer with more product. What I appreciate about it is I stopped being afraid of doing something that would mess up my hair bc I could wash it and it could be quick and easy. I didn't know that before. I used to wash it every 3 days but that got old quick so now if I do a wash and go after day 3/4 I start doing other things like big puffs or add a cute head band or something. I also found that it's necessary to take breaks from that the avoid over manipulation.

I really like this style on you! Pro tip: Do your wash & go in the morning. Only. Period. Gives your hair the entire day to air dry before bed. Can be done out of the shower too, just be sure to apply leave in condish while in there & put on a plastic cap to keep the steam and moisture in. Also, pineapple your hair in sections at night to avoid matting and tangling. Take down in the shower the next day with steam and/or refresh with hair steamer & moisturizer if needed.

I loved this!! I was a wash and go hater for years and years before I figured out how to do them on my hair. I literally started using the same exact method for my twistouts, then added a gel on top. I used alone vera juice, leave in conditioner, a thick twisting cream, oil, AND THEN put gel on top. I did it in about 8 to 10 sections, let it dry about 1/2 way, then went in and shook my brains out 😂 At night, I put my hair in 4 ponytails under my bonnet and used a tiny bit of oil in the morning to fluff it back out. My hair looked just like yours b4 I dreaded it about a year ago. Don't give up.New subscriber here!! 🥰😍

Hello Everyone. I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy. LaToya, I HAVE to express how much I truly enjoy your channel and (OMG) you have a most adorable and delightful family.

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Thank you Bob, that’s so sweet. I hope your family is healthy and well too! 💜

[@AdventureTimeTorri]

Thank you for this video sis! I’ve been natural 8 years and I’m just now trying wash and gos! You’re so informative and gave a real life perspective on how to best do this style! I found myself running into all the same issues you did and I’ve determined that this style is not for me. I, too will stick to the twist outs, braid outs and stretching; I do like the concept of having more moisturized hair and will add a co-wash in the middle of the week!

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Take a look at my newer videos. I've pretty much mastered it now :)

[@nykia007]

Your son is the sweetest little thing... omg! 🤗

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Thank you!! ❤️❤️

[@nuche100]

Did you just say "side chic you" 🤣🤣🤣 Omg your son..i can't 😍😍😍🤗🤗 too cute..this video was so entertaining..loved it

[@soraya.e5482]

I love shrinkage too it looks so cute but the natural hair community is still loves European looks to the point the shrinkage that is approved is wavy hair... but all shrinkage is pretty and might have wanted to use cheeped products for Anthony dickeys method I sometimes even use VO5 it’s literally like 88 cents for good conditioner that’s been around for so long

[@charlenelavigne2258]

I LOVE YOUR CURLS

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Aww thank you Vicki! 🥰

I do a wash n go every 7 days but it took a bit of trying different methods to get it like that, firstly i use a crap ton of products like i go through bottles of leave in conditioner and creams and gels so fast, however, i don't do anything to my hair those 7 days except band at night take it down in the morning shake my head and go ( i don't even fluff, it will do it by itself after a few days) no oil, no water and my hair doesn't really get dry so thats why i like it and keep doing it. I used to pineapple but that would make my hair look terrible so banding at night, the wrapping in a scarf is the way for me. Everyones hair is different i just took techniques from loads of different methods and adapted the ones i liked to my hair. I had many fails along the way too, like many, and i am still learning,

[@tocrazyjay]

I just can't, product and patience and coin, I totally agree. When my hair is loose, I'm a twist out person, other than that I'm in braids 90% of the time.

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

This is typically how I wear my hair and this is the method I use (even before I knew who Anthony was.) I do NOT shampoo my hair every few days. I do let it get wet every day - indirectly in the shower or a spray bottle. I “shake & go”. The SHAKE is essential...kind of like what a dog does (sorry....no other way for me to say it.) Around day 3, I usually intentionally let it get really wet under the shower head again.I do not normally have to add more product throughout the week because the water brings the product “back to life” 🙀 THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS!!!! You’re always so happy & positive! 🌸🎈🦋❤️

[@larbreapalabre5449]

that lightheaded feeling in the shower during wash day

[@MaiNebula]

Adding water to the conditioner bottle.... 😂😂🤣🤣... YAaSsss!! Real life!! Subscribed!

[@lilambe]

Sis just gon’head and get you some Wetline Xtreme Gel. It puts eco styler and all those other gels to shame. The clear has the strongest hold, I’m mostly 4a but it makes even my 4c sections curl and clump

[@aprilstone31]

I love how dense your hair is! My hair looks dense but it really isn't. I've tried wash n' goes before and my hair just looked weighted down then matted. But maybe I needed less product🤔 Our beautiful locks will forever be a mystery💁🏽‍♀️💜

[@EarthAngel108]

I love your videos! You're beautiful and entertaining! Also I'm learning a lot too. 🥰

[@Patranila]

I'm a 4B/4A mostly and I don't have time to do my hair every 2-3 days, so I totally feel you. Also, that much manipulation seems like overkill to me. If doing my hair were my only (paying) job, sure, but come ON! I gots somethin' else ta do!

[@fizz3130]

i just wanted you to know that i really enjoy your videos. it’s really nice seeing someone with a similar hair texture go through everyday things like i do, and it makes me feel better about not getting everything right. i’m a new sub, but i’m guilty of binge-watching your videos lol! just wanted to pop in and say thank you!

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

👋🏾 Heeey! I’m honored to have you. Welcome!! 💕

[@me_as_marta]

I’ve been waiting on the update before I tried it lol 😩😂 thx for saving my time sis

[@me_as_marta]

Also your baby is theeee cutest 🥺😍

[@gabb5]

I personally think the OG Anthony Dickey method worked well overall, it’s just the part where she added the the water to try to use less gel, but beyond that as she said at the end, his method just be too much okay 😂

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

The AD method works really well. I say give it a try! I personally need to try a different gel and keep a heavy hand.

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Exactly!! Thank you for helping Gabby! ❤️

[@me_as_marta]

Gabby yeah it definitely worked and looked cute I wasn’t referring to that, I was referring to having to repeat the process after only 2 days...wouldn’t work for my lifestyle. I should’ve made that clearer, I apologize if I offended you LaToya.

[@kathyswanson4803]

Stretching it with the scrunchies over night helps it dry i do it that way it may still be damp the next morning its stretched and dry

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Thank you for the suggestion Kathy! A few of you are saying the same thing. I don’t have scrunchies yet, but now I need to get some for my next attempt. ❤️🙌🏾

[@mssan2016]

I've noticed that the wash n go look only works with co washing. l get the best definition when l do it after a twist out. Try the wetline gel too!

[@natural426]

LaToya Ebony Yes! Get some satin scrunchies from Amazon.

[@ensmith210]

First, cutie pie son, thanks for the pop by. Second, you are funny as hell keep it REAL. I've learned so much from your fail LOL. Wash n go is very time-consuming 😊. I'll stick with twist outs and other low manipulation styles.

[@artheaux666]

You should try as I am dry and itchy scalp line!! It’s amazing for itchy scalp

[@LaLa-nn7lg]

You should try the banding method to stretch out your wash and go! I would love to see it. I use the banding method so I don't have to blow dry as much / wash as much and I think it makes the wash and go last longer. I have 4b hair btw.

[@julester7747]

OMGNESS your son is soooooo adorable.

[@really_joyce2452]

When she looked back filling the bottle with water😹😹.... #priceless. I got the mielle deep conditioner cos of you and onesmartfro, it's really good. Yeah not a fan of the shrinkage with knotting with my wash and gos. Thanks for the sharing💝
