How I care and revive a wash & Go for 8 days! 4C Hair

HEY GIRL HEY!
In This video, I am going to walk you through my hair care routine around the wash and go that I did not too long ago. We discuss night routine, doing the pineapple and just how to revive my hair in general so I don't look crazy.
Overall, I quite enjoyed doing the wash and go and likely will do it again. I did not have issues washing and detangling my hair afterwards, and I haven't noticed any single stand knots... but I also don't look for them :)

I legit always side eyed the pineapple on 4C hair. Thank you for proving out my skepticism

[@LannieBass]

I do mostly wash and gos and I’ve recently learned that the steam from the shower is my friend! It is the best curl revitalizer. I don’t try to band or pineapple my hair anymore. I just sleep on a satin pillow case at night, take a steamy morning shower and fluff. Great video!

[@JennJackson]

The steam from the shower is such a great way to moisturize your hair period! I do it all the time! x

[@angelaidk7467]

I think the pineapple is for longer hair that has more weight...wen u take it out of the pineapple it will fall back down a little...then if u spritz it with water and shake ur head it will bounce right into place.....TWA if it dries in a position...it ain't leaving it

[@positivevybes247]

Her hair is pretty long.. Like medium length... But it shrinks so much... So I think that's why it's not 4c friendly... Because 4c hair shrinks up so bad.... However long the hair is

[@gramnet]

You can get it to come back down but in my experience I looe definition. I have shoulder length hair but my shrinkage is so rude.

[@maratogether3439]

Omg if I was on Instagram I would have told u girl.. don’t even waste your time with the pineapple 🙄it’s not 4c hair friendly I’ve tried it and never understood how ppl rave about it and it never worked for ME . I see now that refreshing your hair In shower is key soo thanks a lot!!

[@JennJackson]

Right? I wish someone had told me but it a learning opportunity for me lol x

[@tiffaniw8270]

Def have to have a certain hair type other than 4c for the pineapple cause it doesn't work

[@LaShumbraBates]

I found out the hard way that it doesn't work. I did it once & NEVER again.

[@lefthand_enlightened1445]

I was like WTF AM I DOIN WRONGGG I'd fight with my hair for hoursss tryna do the pineapple but nah

[@kpookiejo3034]

I was confused too the one and only time I did the pineapple. I thought I did something wrong when my hair was kind of stuck in that shape. I had to refresh in the shower.

[@kraxykam7242]

My hair is laughing because I wouldn't last two days! Lol, loved this video Jen. You're so gorgeous sis 💕

[@JennJackson]

Thank you!!

[@n2xrcise]

Yeah, if I do my hair on Saturday or Sunday by Tuesday night I'm wetting it, detangling it and putting in some twists for a twist out the rest of the work week. It's never made it past that 2/3 day mark!

[@anniebanana3698]

Hydration is key. I surprisingly learned that from Solange, LOL! She mentioned in an interview about refreshing her curls in the shower with the steam and a bit of water but not saturation. Your hair looked good. I can't believe it made it 8 days!

[@JennJackson]

Right? That shower trick was everything!

[@aquafina6544]

@@JennJackson i dont have 4c so my hair will droop if I wet or steam it. But thats bcus my hair has changed. Im 4a and some 3c mostly in front. And 4b in crown. I also have multi porosity too. But when my hair was thick like yours and I was just learning lawd it was stiff and the water thing did work. Medication and surgery has thinned my hsir out and changed my curl pattern a lot. Im using products with more protein in them to thivken her back up. If I wasnt graying I would go back to henna but I hate the process of getting it black and that orange red is not the move for this chocolate gyal.

[@QueenOfTheDamned]

@@aquafina6544 My mom has grey hairs as well so instead of Henna I use Zizyphus powder as her prepoo. Apparently it has strengthening effects like henna but no color change to the hair. If you're interested I but it from Hennasooq.com

[@aquafina6544]

@@QueenOfTheDamned thx. I love henna sooq. I will try it.

[@ambs31189]

I've always found that spritzing my wash n go with a bit of water and then covering it with a plastic cap for 10ish minutes works well to give my curls some life and movement in the morning :)

[@notyouraveragejoe7003]

Thanks, I’ll try this this week.

[@gramnet]

Great Tip. Update this really worked for me this morning. I did what you suggested and lifted at roots with oil on my fingers. Thank you.

[@Badlove10]

Such a GOOD video for us naturals who are still learning! Thank you 💗

[@JennJackson]

You're so welcome!

[@fateemajohnson825]

Inga miller omggg yess i'm still learning I'm glad to see someone else is

[@WLHMCALLNATURAL]

I watched two ads to support my girl, l really love the texture of your hair, it’s nice

[@Neosoul_prima]

I definitely think the mini pineapples are my favorite ways! The thing that I do is wrap the band down the section more. Plus do more sections like 4 or 5. Then while taking them out, I make sure I have oil on my hands so that fluffing is easier. Because you do the shower thing, I’d actually leave the banded pineapples in, and allow the steam to stretch and revive it. Idk chile I’m a twist out kind of guy anyway lol

[@tiffanysquire3838]

The look on your face each day cracked me up only because the struggle is so real for us truly 4c individuals.

[@serenajackson6717]

I’m not 4c but I love your videos! Gotta support my fellow type 4 girls 🥰

[@JennJackson]

Thank you!!

[@kpookiejo3034]

Yesssss...type 4 hair is beautiful as a whole. What our hair does shrinking up is soo amazing. I used to be irritated with my shrinkage. But after following Jen, LaToya Ebony, and StarPuppy I began to embrace my shrinkage...that's what can happen simply witnessing someone LOVE their hair in EVERY state. Our hair is truly AMAZING💞

[@newdiffrentbetter]

You’re the real mvp for stretching that wash-n-go that long! 👏🏽🙌🏽

[@sime6099]

i’ve been awaiting this video 😭😭 i always wanted to try a wash & go but i never knew how to maintain it after. thank you ❤️❤️

[@denitajones7179]

Ok! I am 4C as well and have been following you for years now! Your hair and your attitude is sooo me! Love it!!! When you said you were putting your 4C hair in the pineapple, I was like ohhh this is going to be good! 😱. When the scarf came off, I saw my head! Lol. No to pineapples!🙅🏽‍♀️. Thanks for sharing those bad days!!! Subi in the house!!! Whoop whoop!!!

[@reeshamiller8869]

I Stan this video, and your beautiful texture. WELL DONE!! I’m going to show my daughter your videos, she needs the representation🥰

[@isa_virtual]

Watching this made me want to try a wash and go again after ages 😫 it looked so cute! And the steam tip was fire!

[@stephb4ever]

Thank you for sharing. Thank you for actually having 4C hair, so refreshing!!!

[@JennJackson]

You are so welcome!

[@faithkimoyo2363]

my fav hair you tuber...you really give me all the infor i want

[@briamoton9916]

Heyy Jen I just cut off my relaxed hair after like 10 months. Now I can finally do a wash and go. Imma go back and rewatch your all your videos.❤ Also im excited for this video ik its gonna be fire.

[@JennJackson]

You got this!

[@miniminott48]

Jenn, your wash and go was beautiful. I have 4A/3C hair and pineapple is a no-no for me whenever I do wash and gos, which is rarely nowadays. I just put on a bonnet and fluff my hair and it resumes its shape. I can't use steam or water because my hair will become frizzy and dry. That is why i don't refresh between wash days. I also only use a curling cream, no gel. My wash and gos usually last 2 weeks. Like you, I don't have much tangling on wash day. Maybe you could try a curling cream wash and go.

[@jerrys.lawson5418]

Love the vibes and the feeling like a fun Lady. "Bye sis" 👩🏾 BYYYEEEEEE!!!!!

I’m waiting almost everyday for this!!!!😁😁😁

Thank you so much 🤗

[@adenikeoni9145]

I really enjoyed watching the video, thanks Jen

[@thecopperfro9830]

Jenn gurl I could’ve told you bout that pineapple 🍍 lol the bamboozled you lol. When I’ve done wash and do’s in the past I just put my bonnet on and steam refresh in the a.m that is honestly the best method for our hair type! I’m glad you eventually found it. Ps. Great video I loved that you showed all the different methods in a trial and error way and showed us what worked best for you 💚💚

[@johnarhodes3748]

I am glad you share things that don't necessarily work (pineapple😁). I learn from it all!! Thank you for embracing all aspects of your hair journey.

[@jennifernewton830]

Love your vibe! Great video. I know I wasn't crazy when I tried the "pineapple method". Will definitely try the shower approach now. TY!

[@asa7423]

Yes, the steam from the shower did the trick!!!! I do this all the time for my 4a/4b hair

[@dreamsofwaffles]

Much appreciated. I appreciate the steam technique becuase i dont think my hair would like the pineapple or stretching with hair ties. Im happy for this wash n go update.

[@JennJackson]

No matter what you do, definitely don't do the pineapple lol x

[@dianawilliams5193]

I can so relate to this video with my hair.. I will definitely try the shower steam next time . Thanks for sharing 👍🏽

[@laurenkirby5390]

Your hair is so beautiful!

[@themzie]

"Mamma they told me to it"😂😂😂😂😂🤭 Ayeeee Jenn, I love how you try different stuff in different days and found a way that works best to keep them wringlets alive and popping💜💜💜 oh I also love how you showed us all 8days of the style and what it looked like🔥🔥🔥🔥😍💜this content right here is the bomb🥰🥰🥰

[@JennJackson]

quality content girl LOL. Thank you so much for watching and I am glad you enjoyed it

[@gramnet]

@Jenn Jackson Update: I didn't do a pineapple ( I slept in a bonnet only) and this morning I spritzed with water glycerin aloe vera juice mix and put on a plastic cap for 10 minutes ,lifted with fingers at root and boom my hair was back. I don't know about 8 days. I just did a WNG for the first time in a long time and I doubt I can get 8 days. 2 to 3 max but I am going to try this time without pineappling and just waking up curls with steam and little water.

[@honeymoney23]

Girl, Thank you! my hair always feels soft when i Steam it in the shower! usually i steam by wearinga plastic cap but I'ma try what you did and sprinkle a little water in my scalp and scrunch. you're giving me realistic results! appreciate it!

[@doneidasimpson-simon9554]

Yea girl! Love this!

[@blackan5564]

Oooooh girl, that defined fro u had on wash day was LIT LIT LIT🥳🥳🥳😍

[@JennJackson]

Right? 🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@TheDaydreamfiend]

loving this series. can you please show the aftermath of the detangling after the wash and go. That's the worst part about wash n gos for me that's why I don't want to do them on my 4c hair.

[@Ducky190]

i spend so much time fluffing my wash and gos just to have a helmet head the next morning😭 I love my loose hair out and about but for the most part i leave it in twists. Your hair looks so beautiful and defined. Gurllll those curls are poppin👌

[@rjfilmixfilmingcompanyakar8424]

Still scared of trying a wash and go but you encourage me gal🥰😍

[@cathrinekudakwashematemba1744]

Omg I so love Jenn Jackson you are my favourite hair vlogger.I was going through one video whereby u were doing flat twists and tried them out.I love the curl definition and volume of your hair and was wondering if you you would love to put so alice bands and bows just to zhuzh it up a notch 😊.Its all love here girl thank you for the inspiration ❤❤❤❤❤💗❤

[@paulettemoore47]

Thanks for sharing. I struggle with refreshing my hair and essentially do the same as you. I guess I was on the right track!

[@womana1993]

I love the hair in 2 or 3 loose puffs overnight! The pineapple isn't the method for me either, unless my hair is very stretched already. I also am not afraid to take my blow dryer to my hair in the am to fluff the roots. If I am gonna do it for more than a minute or 2, I will spray some heat protectant First. Great video Jenn!!

[@shinee5live]

Enjoyed every minute of d vid so I just had to subscribe 🤣🤣

[@tammygant4216]

ok, I'm a year late to the party, but this is life! This is exactly what I needed/wanted to see as I fine-tune my wash-n-go game on my ultra 4c hair.

[@BlackBerryDiamond1]

Yes girl, I see you and I'm here for it too! You and your hair were so beautiful on day 8, minus the flakes of course, just stunning!

[@amnjordan23]

Wow... So I normally get these results after having my wash and go in for a week, and for some reason, I think I did something wrong... This is exactly what it's supposed to look like... thick, coily, defined, and healthy... Thank you for this!

Thank you sis

[@halim1582]

Your hair is so pretty

[@JennJackson]

Thank you 🙏

[@QueenOfTheDamned]

Yup I love reviving my hair daily using the steam from my hot shower. Right before I jump in the shower, I usually spray my hair with Oyin Handmade's Juices & Berries herbal hair spray which has humectants that draw the moisture from the steam into my hair. But if I spray too much I can lose some definition from my twist out since it can take in a lot of moisture. When I try my wash n go I will try wetting my hands like you did to revive it.

[@dralandralarkins8443]

This video took so much time to make. Thank u for going through your steps day by day and showed us results. Ive been doing wash and gos 4 a week and literally have the same results as u w the revival process. Just hop in the shower if your 4c! Lol. Thanks 4 sharing queen. Preciate it❤

[@evangelinemy3589]

🎶 It's our giiirl hey hey it's our giiirl Jenn J 🎶 ☺ "Wash & go" on 4c hair is definitely not just a wash and go 😅 It takes a very long time to make it work. And after that we have to revive it each day 😪... But this cute style to the end 😍 we like it girl 😉

Thank u so much Jenn!!

Was soo curious if a wash and go was possible for 4C hair and maintainable

Hi dear I just subscribed, am 4c hair too and I have tried wash and go twice it doesn't work for me,it only lasted a day but I love this video because am gonna try to do it again.

[@cosmiccream2469]

I’m curious how a few chunky braids would work versus the “pineapple” 🍍 band method

[@LoveMe-ei2ib]

Heyyy Aunty Jen!!!!😍😍🥰🥰

[@JennJackson]

Heyyy babiessss LOL

[@asa7423]

Jenn, next time take a shower and allow the steam to give your hair moisture and shape it in the shower. Although I'm not 4c, I put my hair in 3 ponytails at night... one in front and two on the side. I take the bands off and take my shower. Once I'm done taking a shower, I shake my hair . The steam from the shower loosens my hair and I'm able to shape it when I get out the shower (I'm 4a/4b btw). Just a thought...

[@shedori92]

Soo cute!!! 🥰 👏🏾🤗

[@JennJackson]

Thank you 🙏

All this time I thought my hair hated me bc EVERY FRIGGIN TIME I do a pineapple it turns into a disaster 😂 It stays stuck in that shape and I have to get it soakijg wet to do anything w/ it. Glad it's not just me. I'll try a satin pillowcase bc a binnet gives me helmet hair. Any recs for satin pillowcases?

Okay. My hair is much shorter than yours, but I am now inspired to try a wash and go on my next wash day.

[@chalabrooks5433]

Jenn Jackson Have you tried a hand held steamer. I have one from Q-Redew that I haven't used in awhile but watching you do your wash and go reminded me to pull it out to try to refresh my wash and go the next time. Can't say I will jump in and out the shower just for my hair. 😂 I might turn it on and just stand near it.😂😂

I have a regular steamer, not a hand held one. You should definitely use it sis!

[@JennJackson]

Pineapple is not for "us" lol

[@HereDiianas]

Did you experience more single strand knots after a week of that styling technique?

[@jackiepope609]

That my question? Mine ALWAYS has so many knots😬 how can I prevent my hair from knotting

[@Ash_Queen16]

@@jackiepope609 I heard that you have to moisturize your hair. Single strand knots are caused by dryness. If you’re still experiencing that, it could be that you’re not sleeping with a satin bonnet. If that’s not helping, perhaps a protein treatment (such as rice water, for me at least). Hope it helps

[@queen_j1422]

Lmbo...a pineapple legit does nothing for me. I put on a bonnet...but that satin pillow case did u all kinds of favors, along with moisture from the shower. Banding just helps to elongate (mini pineapples). My shrinkage has become my friend lol
