Natural Hair-Eco Styler Wash n' Go

Visit my Blog at http://www.curlyincolorado.com/
This is how I do my Wash n' Go Style. This time I have added braids in the front instead of a headband or bobby pins. I use three items to achieve the final look; Olive Oil, Leave-in Conditioner and Eco Styler gel. This look can be maintained for a few days by re-wetting the hair and shaking it to "reactivate" the curls. I use the "Cold Water Rinse" method I saw in a ShidaNatural video. It takes awhile to dry, but it works :). Thanks for Watching! All music uploaded thru OneTrueMedia.

i love this! I'm going to wear my hair like this everyday from now on. Thanks for the idea

@justice15kids I like it too. You can actually wrap your hair in a t-shirt to get rid of some of the "drippies". And sometimes I use a spray bottle to wet it instead of putting my head under the faucet so it's not sooo drenched. Thanks for the comment! :)

Thank you for sharing this video. I followed your advice and it works every time. Very pleased with the results. I could not get the Palmer's Hair Milk so I used the Africa's Best Organics Shea Butter and Tea-Tree Oil Moisturizer or their Carrot Oil Cream.

@The240462 Thanks for the response. I'm really glad that it works for you.

Rinsing it right after you apply the gel is taking most of the product away and will cause some frizz. That's also why you have to apply more after you rinse it the next day. I think its best that you just keep a spray bottle on hand to keep your hair really saturated before apply the gel and I do suggest finger combing while you apply the gel, because you actually ended up doing at the end and it would save you time and extra steps...Hope this helps.

@benjaminscameron Since this video, I have noticed that I get similar results by using a spray bottle to re-wet the hair. I appreciate the suggestions...Thank you for watching

This music makes me laugh...nway luv da results!

[benjaminscameron]

@mitchellzee Okay, cool. Keep up the great work!!!

@kameelean This is definitely a style for the warmer months. You can also wet the hair with a spray bottle so that it's not so wet with similar results. I also discovered that after wetting, I can "plop" with a tshirt towel and the curls are still in tact but not so wet. In the winter I like using rollersets, twistouts and braidouts to stretch my hair out. I also take advantage of the colder weather to flat iron my hair 1x per month (so I can wear hats ...lol) Thanks for watching! :)

I am currently growing out my locs so I can wear my hair natural and loose again. I am discovering these new curly gel/pudding products. You mentioned wetting/saturating your hair and it taking along time to dry. My question is what do you do in the winter? What happens when you put a hat on and it's still wet?
