Wash and Go Natural Hair Tutorial Adwoa Beauty Product Review

[@lakendralandon7239]

This is the best thing you have used for your hair. The difference is amazing.

[@adwoabeauty]

wow! this detailed review/tutorial was amazing! thank you so much for your time and sharing with your platform abena!! we appreciate your support.

[@shayhills9818]

adwoa beauty thank you for creating such an amazing line!! I see folks complain about the prices going up!! I do not care I love Adwoa Beauty and when I count the cost of what I have spent in products to date your line is affordable and a little goes a long way!! I will shout it from the rooftops 😂😂.

[@dragonfly_blue7]

I'm glad you mentioned you have different porosities in your hair. I always found it strange that having different curl patterns and textures were acknowledged but when it came to porosity it was high or low, no varying degrees.

[@nicolebarnes6376]

Your hair is so Beautiful.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Thank you Nicole!

[@sonyamyatt2769]

How long have you been doing a wash and go?

[@janetsbff5974]

Just tried this two days ago and my hair did not last two days, lol... I tried to refresh but maybe I didn’t wet it enough the first time. Thank you for this video, you hair is exceptional!!! 🌟🌟🌟

[@marlenemicou9507]

Loved this! Very well explained! Almost makes me want to big chop my dreads and start back with loose natural. I really appreciate looking at professionals explaining techniques!!

[@shayhills9818]

Your hair is gorgeous!! I also LOVE Adwoa Beauty products as well. I have been natural with color since 2014 after years of relaxers. I honestly hated my hair texture because of the thick and coarseness. Being tender headed made combing my hair almost impossible!! I cried after my big chop and got braids. I wore them for a year, taking them down shampooing and conditioning them every 3 months. I watched a few KZbin videos and bought Uncle Funky’s daughter and my hair grew but I had more hair in my detangling comb!! Being miseducated on natural hair made me a product junkie with having a monthly subscription to curlbox. Then came Adwoa!! I saved up to purchase their products, but they sold out. Then Curlbox this year had a non-subscription box for Adwoa but again I missed out so now I am mad but curious so I purchase the travel size and fell in love!! I have finally found my staples. I look forward to wash days!! I am now subscribed to your channel and I will check out your website...working on my hair goals for 2020!! Sorry so long 😂

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Thank you for the lovely compliment. I am so happy to hear you are enjoying this wonderful brand. When you look forward to wash days that says a whole lot. Hope to see you over at my exclusive video platform washandgonaturhair(dot com) In the meantime, sending good vibes for you toward your goals for 2020 and beyond.

[@lblack1961]

YOU!!!!! I have been looking through my subscriptions on several occasions trying to find your channel because I couldn't remember your channel name. I'm writing it down this time, in my phone, in my journal, on my computer, just so I don't forget it! I'm so glad to have found you today! You came up in my suggestions because of this product. I hope you are well 💖💖💖 (I have had "all notifications" bell clicked for you, yet none would ever come up. I unclicked and re-clicked that bell again in the hopes that I do receive those notifications from this day forward).

[@ggqnice]

OMG I am so inspired to try these products. Yours is the second reveiw/demo I've seen, and I am more convinced than ever to try them. I also wish I could travel to your salon, so that you can personally do my hair.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

So glad to hear. I hope you enjoy these products as much as I do.

[@BeGlorifiedTV]

Omg I’m sooooooo excited to see another tutorial from you!!! I was just watching some of your videos yesterday! Please don’t leave us😩😂😂

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Aww thank you so much. It is a pleasure to make videos to share with you. I hope you enjoy! And btw, I am not leaving!!!

[@CutAfrikAfro]

Yes your hair is supper defined, thick...nice to look at... inspiring...never give up

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Aww thank you so much! Happy to be an inspiration.

[@ltrotter636]

Looks like your hair has grown and it's still thick despite the fact that you mostly do wash n go. Very encouraging, thank you!

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

When your routine for managing your hair is focused on moisture absorption, moisture retention and low manipulation you should be able to keep it in good condition and retain length. The wash and go is a low manipulation style. I would also consider it a protective style. I am happy to be an example to the natural hair community that you can retain length wearing a wash and go hair style that is well moisturized on day one, so you do not have to over manipulate your hair.

[@reneewilliams595]

I've just started watching you 5/5 and I have watched at least 7 videos. You have convinced me to get this product.

[@prahootace1356]

Yay, Abena you came through as promised! Thanks for another great video & footage of the product launch! 😘

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

My pleasure. I am glad you enjoyed it!

[@vannasgran6176]

First video of yours I have watched. I can not wait to watch more. I didn’t k ow you could have different porosity through out your hair. I just purchased this brand and I was looking for reviews or tips.

[@LeaJackson90]

What an excellent video 👌 Just excellent!

[@twilliams9259]

New subbie here. I love how detailed your reviews are. Great video!

[@Nataye219]

I have been watching your videos a while & NEVER knew you were in my home town White Plains! I’m looking to see how I can make an appointment because my hair NEEDS you! Can’t wait to get in your chair! 😍

[@natholeg]

Wow you convinced me to tryed this brand. Your hair look amazing. I specially love the owner's inspiration behind the products. I will order them and let you know! Thank you Abena!

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Natalie, I am amazed since I know you have your staple products you love. The Adwoa Beauty products are well formulated with oils that provide great slip without being greasy. Easy to handle and apply. I look forward to hearing your experience. Please keep me posted on the results.

[@natholeg]

Embrace Natural Beauty Lol you know I have my staples but thanks to you I learned to better understand my hair and how to apply products so I'm confident that I will make it work. I ordered yesterday but the leave-in was sold out. So I bought the shampoo, the curl cream and the deep conditioner. Yes no gel....lol I wanted to try something new! Just a curl cream. As soon as I receive them I will let you know my results.😊

[@deez596]

wow this product line seems like it may be a game changer

[@deez596]

[@wilhelminakey5776]

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

You will love yourself for trying the adwoa beauty products. Keep me posted on the results!

[@traceyhuggins4898]

Hello😀 Your hair is beautiful😀Thanks for sharing great info!

[@laneece2010]

👍🏽 I'm excited to buy this entire collection !!

[@mariezaligonde7946]

when are you coming out with ur products...that's what I am waiting for

[@michellegreen4526]

zaza bonhomme That is also what I am expecting from Abena in 2018. 😉

[@oncebitebysquirrel]

Love it your hair is popping! I Love the Adwoa creator she is so cool and down to earth!..I like how she like girl the shampoo is a shampoo like everyone's else's !😂but it does have oils in it for this reason. She is honest about her product...I like how she says you can just use the creme and not the gel to get this result or both for that result...instead of just trying to convince you to buy everything in the line and make her products overly appealing like magical unicorn juice🦄💫...so she can get her coin by any means necessary. Haha. Thx for this video💗 Tia Kirby bun was Cute I like the smoove hair wrapped around

[@wholeheartedlyforthelord2290]

Beautiful love your hair!!

[@michellegreen4526]

Excellent video Abena! Wonderful texture shots, which helps a novice such as myself. I have my products and will try it in a couple days. I am so excited to try these products. Thank you for making these videos that have helped so many. I am lucky to have had you style and cut my hair a couple times. Your recommendations have helped me retain length and increase the moisture retention in my hair.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hey Michelle, thank you for mentioning the texture shots. I worked hard to achieve them to show you all a high level of detail. I hope your experience with the adwoa beauty products is great so they can become a staple for you. I know you will keep me posted on your results. I am happy to know you have experienced wonderful progress with your hair since following my recommendations. I was blessed to work on your hair a few times and use your situation as a basis for teaching about concentration levels in the ingredients listings on the labels.

[@1880nana]

Wow she’s so beautiful and classy . Subscribed !

[@autumnsah3282]

Absolutely beautiful!! I'm ordering now lol

[@LeaJackson90]

Beautiful hair. I would love to purchase this line. And beautiful new camera!

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hi Lea, thank you! Yes it's a wonderful product line, I highly recommend it. Enjoy!

[@bellasee1]

Good Morning,Beautiful! Thank you for all the Hair Knowledge.We Love you and Need you! Happy Holidays.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

My pleasure! Happy Holidays to you as well!

[@brendawarner4854]

Thank you so much; good teaching; question are you selling this hair products in your salon..?

[@profrn8857]

Thanks for sharing Abena, this was the best. And Happy Thanksgiving.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Thank you Prof RN. I am happy you enjoyed it. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.

[@LunaMysteriax]

Wow 8 days look like the first few days! Incredible! Do you think that the deep treatment as well as the leave-in have an extreme amount of slip that you can also detangle with it?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Yes, you can detangle with the deep conditioning treatment which is what I did in the video. You can also detangle with the leave in. It's a wonderful product line. Enjoy!

[@inezpatton4996]

Fabulous

[@ylstaggs]

Wow! Abena very nice, I hope that I tried these products! And it’s vegan too

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hi Lovely Dove, I think you will really like the ingredients. The full listing is available on their website.

[@crazydaysful]

hair has grown much - beautiful hair.

[@fretfire8658]

Hello Abena. Do you still pre-poo? What do you think about using stylers with glycerin in the winter? Do you have a video that talks about heatless stretching? And finally, is steam-brush straightening healthier for hair than flat ironing? Thank you for all you do. ☺️

[@taradise8]

It seems like this product line makes your curls a lot more defined along with the waves. Nice. Very good tutorial. Do you prefer gels over cream stylers?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Yes my curls are poppin with the adwoa beauty products. I prefer to style my hair with a gel layered on top of a good moisturizer/leave in conditioner. The cream styler in this line has great hold and it recommended for use with braid outs, twist outs, rod sets and wash and gos on looser textures.

[@bellasee1]

Happy Thanksgiving!Been missing your videos.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Happy Thanksgiving darling!

[@pjacksone]

I JUST ordered the Curlbox that has these products. Did you catch the sale? Where did you buy your silk scarf?

[@shelly11134]

Great results 👍👍💕

[@2koda1]

loved this video. Your hair is beautiful. question: the adwoa products offer a styling cream and a gel. Do you use the cream after the leave in and then put the gel on for the wash and go?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

I did not use the cream. Only the leave in and gel.

[@brendawarner4854]

I. want to try some of her other products

[@jaeshasway]

I wish I could wash my hair without it being in sections. I have soft hair, but it has lots of kinks, or bends and but tangles easy. The strands don't like to stay out of each other's way, they like to hug and dance with each other, even if I'm not doing anything, just styling another section. I can detangle before washing, but if I don't wash in sections, I'll have to detangle again afterwards. 😩

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hi Terri, I hope you have a better experience when you use the adwoa beauty products. They are all loaded with oils that provide great slip without being greasy.

[@jaeshasway]

Embrace Natural Beauty Once I have in my products in its fine, but in general wash and goes haven't been kind to me because of the way my hair likes to wind around itself. There really is no miracle product. My stylist even says that my strands like to dance. I used to believe it was the products or my technique, but after trying dozens of protects and techniques I've come to realize it just grows that way. Lol. Thank you for the video and all that you do. I turned around how I care for my low porosity higher density spots by watching your videos. The part in the back of my head just below the crown.

[@207962]

Do these items contain protein in them because Im trying to avoid protein all around

[@yishiy999]

mine too

[@evanm076]

Is a wash in go year round a good way to retain length? Looking for a style that I can master on my own without going broke. I like wash n gos, but I want to know from a professional stylist who does natural hair. ( some stylist DON'T WORK WITH NATURAL HAIR, THEY JUST SAY THAT. ) I called 10 salons and they had no idea what a wash n go was, but they said they only do natural hair. I have a goal to retain length, can a wash n go be my everyday/ year round style and retain length with it? I enjoy your all your videos. Next time I'm in NYC I'm going to be in your salon.

[@jannetteeffinger4142]

Your hair is lovely 👠💄💄💄

[@TracyD2]

Hey lovely lady hope all is well. Just checking to see if you posted another video. I’m not subscribed to any other media forums so I’m just hoping all is good. Seeing what’s new. Peace to you.

[@brendawarner4854]

Hi I try the deep condition; it was good😀

[@emmarosales1259]

Do you still use eco styler gel or wetline Xtreme

[@renessaaustin9231]

I really wanna try this brand

[@HebrewHoney777]

I have to purchase this product.

[@minimalassembly7893]

Your hair seems to love these products. Did you also darken your hair?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Thanks. No, I did not darken my hair.

[@beautyupabove4708]

The owner and I have the sane birthday. July 16. Awesome

[@tinarhodes5983]

Beautiful 😍😍..when I seen your stamp of approval of these products on your Instagram I was sold lol..I'm so excited to use them on my low porosity hair!! Love your detailed review..im pretty amazed at how much you didn't have to spritz your hair with water before applying the gel on your low porosity portions...i registered on your new website!..thanks for sharing!!

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Thank you Tina. I am so happy you remember that important step. Allow the moisturizer to penetrate your hair before applying the gel and do not add any more water. There is enough moisture with the leave in and gel to moisturize your low porosity hair. Adding water will only interfere with the absorption you need for good lasting results.

[@tinarhodes5983]

Embrace Natural Beauty thank for responding!!..im hoping through your videos I can master a wash n go..thats my biggest struggle...i believe it's technique, knowing the amount to use and product selection...ill be watching

[@jannetteeffinger4142]

Where did you buy your long scarf?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

I purchased the silk material in the garment district, New York City, and had my tailor cut and sew it into separate scarves.

[@larobey7961]

Thanks fo this video. I m ordering today!!!!

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

You're welcome La Robey! Keep me posted on your results.

[@kassondraedwards9541]

Do you detangle and comb your hair every day?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

No I do not detangle my hair every day. The only day I comb or detangle is wash day. My hair maintains moisture and definition all week long and longer if I decide to go more days. Please subscribe to www.coachingnaturalhair.com for more in depth videos to come.

[@kassondraedwards9541]

I just bought these products. I can't wait to try routine

[@kimedwards7695]

I usually do was and goes for 14days,how how long will these products last??

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

I was able to get 13 days with Earthtones and 15 days with Adwoa. The difference I experienced was my curls looked like day 2 the entire time with Earthtones. With Adwoa I was able to get the volume I like by day 4 or 5 and stayed well defined the entire time.

[@BeGlorifiedTV]

Another video!!!

[@leighlittlebury2272]

Hi where did you purchase your scarf, what are the ingredients of Adwoa product are they natural?,I too am low porosity but am protein sensitive. Will she be sending her products to the UK?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hey Leigh, I purchased silk material from the garment district in New York City and had it cut and sewn into several scarves by the tailor. The full ingredient listing is available on their website adwoabeauty.com I have experienced protein sensitivity as well which I shared in a video on my channel. These products worked very well for my entire head of mixed porosity/protein sensitive hair. Yes, Adwoa Beauty is shipping to the UK now.

[@kimedwards7695]

In your opinion, do you like this line better than Earth Tone NATURALS. .I love EARTH TONES ,IT GIVES ME 18 DAYS and shiny

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hey Kim, I use both products in the salon. Individual choices need to be made on an individual level. If you have great success with Earthtones, you have a holy grail product. And I am glad I was able to introduce the product to you.

[@jann7779]

WRU? Happy new year, miss ur videos

[@miaalexander1703]

I love it😉😉😉!!!

[@emeliakorang1469]

Please want to know if you guys are Ghanaian bcos I know only Ghanaian a female born on Tuesday Abena and Monday born Adwoa.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hi Emelia, Thank you for asking! I was born in the US but my father traced his ancestry to Ghanaian roots. Julian mentions in the video as well as on her website that she is from West Africa. Her Father was from Ghana and her mother was from Liberia.

[@vintagefiasco2271]

Should I condition my hair after wash or just deep condition after wash? My hair is also at the big chop stage, so should I still use a comb to detangle or just my fingers because my hair is so short

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

It really depends on the products you are using. Prior to using Adwoa Beauty I always used a dedicated rinse out conditioner that had good slip (lubrication) so I could detangle my hair before doing the deep conditioning step. Since Adwoa Beauty deep conditioner has good slip, I use it for detangling and do not need to use a separate conditioner.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

When you hair short it is easy to detangle with just your fingers, but sometimes using the comb will help to remove more loose hairs that will prevent tangling and knotting.

[@jann7779]

Is this product better than mielle organics?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Adwoa Beauty products are great! When it comes to comparing the two products you have to be the judge based on the experience you have on you own hair. For example, I was able to use these items for a complete wash day for 3 weeks in a row and experienced great results each time. When using other products I have had to use my staple cleansers, conditioners and deep conditioners to ensure great results. Give it a try and let me know what you determine works best for your hair.

[@minidocstv3339]

Is it silicone free?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Yes it's silicone free. To be certain, the full list of ingredients for each item in the product line is provided on the website. adwoabeauty.com

[@lynp5988]

I have a question is it normal to have frizzy hair as a natural.

[@librasun]

Lyn Page frizzy hair can mean 2 things. Either your curls are not retaining moisture/ not sealing in moisture or you’re over manipulating your hair while styling.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Hi Lyn, I have frizzy hair and my focus is always moisture absorption and retention. Some hair is more challenging to achieve moisture absorption and retention. Low and High porosity hair do not absorb or retain moisture as easily as normal porosity hair. Frizzy hair is typical in many instances. Frizzy hair along the front hair line is typically high porosity. When it's frizzy in the crown it's typically low porosity. The high and low porosity areas of my hair and many others do not define as well as the normal porosity areas, even when styled with a good process, good technique and quality products. What I like about using the Adwoa Beauty products is how well my high and low porosity hair responded. My low porosity was well moisturized and stayed elongated and smooth. My high porosity hair stayed clumped together whereas is normally loosens up and becomes frizzy on day two of my wash and go. You can stay connected with my on coachingnaturalhair.com where I will continue the discussion on these topics and more.

[@jann7779]

Luvluvluvit ur hair. I have ur hair in my mind.

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

Aww thank you darling! Now let's get some good moisture and hold for your hair. :-)

[@w9906]

I wish I would have been able to register for your hair growth study, cuz high porosity hair and tight curls are not easy to manage AT ALL! Sooo many naturals have a fairly manageable grade of curl.... For those of us with difficult curls, it is frustrating and makes a person not feel like their hair has any hope of definition, let alone for a WEEK or a DAY!! Your hair is long so someone with shorter hair CANNOT maintain a wash and go in that way! I need to see stages of someone with Knotty, kinky, nontameable edges to believe my hair strands have the capability of reaching maximum moisture!

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

I am working on it getting more representation on my new platform washandgonaturalhair.com stay tuned or sign up for our mailing list.

[@w9906]

Embrace Natural Beauty I think I FINALLY understand maximum moisture now! I am realizing it may take me sometime to get there, but I truly did not understand the relationship between our hair and water! I am excited to get to maximum moisture 🤗🤗🤗! Kept listening over and over to you and other curly beauties until I reached this understanding! I did not give up on my hair! Would love for you to do a video collab with ALove4Me and PowerInYourCurl. They are a couple tightly coiled beauties that have done wash and go showing maximum moisture and how they maintain it. OH JOY!!! I am really on a successful hair journey now!!!

[@Myaa1980]

Very interesting

[@feliciacameron76]

Where can we get the scarf you used in the video?

[@EmbraceNaturalBeauty]

I purchased silk material from the garment district in New York City and had it cut and sewn into several scarves by the tailor. I made them available in my salon and sold all of them. If the demand is high enough I will have more available for sale online as well.

[@feliciacameron76]
