I don't like the dry feeling. If I have a really special event, I may skip this step. Also when using mousse, don't overlap any sections with mousse. Wipe your hands before starting different sections to that each section can be detangled. If not, mousse starts to set your hair as soon as it touches etc.

And you help me feel less weird about my indecisiveness 😅 I don’t cowash anymore, but when I did, Oyin Handmade’s ginger mint cowash was my jam. It’s more of a cleansing conditioner though, since it contains cocoamidopropyl (sp?) betaine. But it left my hair just as moisturized and hydrated as a straight-up conditioner would. Plus, it contains hydrolyzed oat protein, which gave my hair a touch of strength and elasticity.

Awhile ago i watched ayesha do a wash and go with uncle funkys and ag moose , and it gave her day 3 hair on day 1 .

It’s helping to mitigate some of the dryness that I was experiencing while doing this mousse only wash and go series. I also do not put the conditioner on my scalp. I just focusing on my hair and water wash my scalp. Right now I’m moving away from gels and trying different styling products to test and see what my preference is. Gel can give great hold, but I’m not currently seeking a strong hold. There are gels that do not give such a strong hold but again I’m just testing out different stylers at this time.

The company says that you can rinse it out after four minutes of leaving it in the hair, but since they prefer that it’s used as a leave in product I hate rinsing it out because it is one of the most expensive products I use. I feel like I’m wasting money by essentially rinsing it down the drain. so those are my thoughts on that currently. 🖤

I havent used a leave in for about a year now and my wash and go last for 7 days. I now use mousse but I always use a topper gel to give me more of a hold and that has made my hair last very long.
@BrittanyMia Жыл бұрын
I respectfully disagree. I don’t think that conditioner is all that is needed for everyone. I think that it works for many many people. However, not everyone. My hair responds better to using a leave-in conditioner. Is it needed always, no. But for me, it’s preferred to maintain hydration. To me, that’s like taking a shower and not putting lotion on. Or putting the lotion on and then rinsing it off again. Hydration is about moisture absorption, but moisturization is about moisture retention. I think products with a strong hold can do a good job of retaining that moisture, but products that do not have a strong hold don’t. I do not like a strong hold so therefore, I am not retaining much moisture without a moisturizer. This is just what I found for myself as I’m experimenting with my hair.

There are 2 stylists on Instagram that are called black girl curls and I thought it was crazy for them to say such a thing because I thought leave INS are additional moisture.

I know it feels that way because our hair is much more softer after the application with wet hair, but your conditioner has already done its Job. I can understand using it after washing because it's still a conditioner and you need something to seal in that moisture. We only get moisture from water after we cleanse our hair and all the conditioner does is seal that water/moisture. I know this is an agreed to disagree thing, but I just wanted to explain this.

One thing that is important to note, is mousses have the most water content, than any styler. The hair is meant to be light, hydrated, and with hold. Most have their holding agents lower in the formulation, but design essentials/the Doux/Nairobi all have their holding agents within the first 4 ingredients. Doing the hair every day, is just so much. Especially if the cowash doesn't have cleansing agents. So the conditioner is just adding to the product lol. Mousses will never weigh the hair down and give you the feeling of a cream or gel. If you want more oil rich products, then use them. But make sure, you're using the appropriate cleanser and conditioner afterwards. It's all about technique

It’s a thing for sure. I started off with my mousse only and now I’m moving onto mousse as the main styler, but with a leave-in underneath. I’ll eventually move on to adding gels back into the mix.
