 Hey you guys! So look, I'm a bit nervous about this video, but I don't know why. Am I the only one? When it's the day before my wash day, I go to YouTube and I'm like, detangle natural hair. Quit detangle. So I've been seeing this one particular video from Natural 85 Whitney and it is 25 minutes detangler and co-wash and I'm like, girl, angle half angle half. So I said, you know what Vivian? Let's go ahead and try and see what happens. You know, if anything, we'll just try it. I can say I tried it. So I'm going to switch up things a little bit differently because I have 4B4C texture and my density is ridiculous. So I'm going to be trying her method on extremely, I wouldn't say extremely, a little bit matted. Washingo. This washingo is seven days old. Yes. So I'm going to show you guys what I'm going to be using. I'm going to be starting off using warm water with a little bit of apple cider vinegar, probably one tablespoon. Okay. And then for my conditioners, let me back up. What she does is she applies coconut, coconut oil, excuse me, in a great condition with slip onto her hair. Allow that to marinate. Then she jumps into the shower with the same conditioner or another one and proceeds to finger detangle in the shower in 25 minutes or less. So we're going to see girl. For my conditioner, we're going to be using a combination of the VO5 strawberries and cream. I know that's focusing. And I have just a little bit of swabs coconut conditioner here. Of course I have coconut oil. All right. Now when she's in the shower, once she's done rinsing out the product, she uses aloe vera juice. I'm not going to do that. I'm going to show you what I'm going to use. For my co-wash, I'm going to be using swabs, almond and shea butter. This is bae. This is bae. This has the best slip ever. I probably will kill half of this, if not all of it. Once I'm done with that, I'm going to be applying apple juice, keratin and green tea reconstructor. And for my leave in, I'm going to be using the Taliyah Wajid, the curls detangler. That's going to be my leave in. Even though it's a detangler, it's a great leave in. Now I'm still debating whether or not I want to use my rice water. This is a jar of rice water that's been fermenting for by three days. This is orange filling here. This is jasmine organic rice. I'm not sure whether or not I want to use it today. All right, you guys, let me go ahead and get some warm water. Put in the apple cider vinegar and we're going to go ahead and get started. All right. So I have one more to here. I'm going to put in some apple cider vinegar. I've been not being a shower. What was that? I think there was a morning sign. Not to do it, girl. All right, you guys. So I'm just going to take my hair down. Like I said, this is a very old wash and go using the wet line extreme gel and the melanin haircare. I'm going to show you what the shrinkage is like right now. My hair is at broadstrap length. Yeah. So I'm just going to go ahead and spray my hair all over with this warm water apple cider vinegar mixture. And then I'm going to go ahead and section up my hair. Okay. Okay. So lightly misting my hair and the first thing I apply is the conditioner and then I lather on the coconut oil and I'm going to be very heavy handed you guys because I want my hair basically almost saturated with both products. Okay. Okay. So I'm just about done and just going to finish up this section right here. This took me eight minutes to do and I left the pre-poo on for two hours in the shower. Look at my face. Yeah. This felt heavenly rinsing out. However, I don't know you guys, my hair kind of felt funny with the gel and putting that coconut oil on it. I'm using a comb to lightly detangle my hair. It took quite a bit of time to rinse out the pre-poo longer than it should have in my opinion. Okay. So most of the pre-poo is out. I'm going to go ahead and dump in on that rice water mixture and then go right in with the almond shea butter by Swab. Okay. And I'm going to use almost all of it. Yeah. Almost all like 75% of the jar giving you a little hair point. You guys, my hair feels amazing. I absolutely love this particular product by Swab, the conditioner at least. I will say my camera stopped and my camera stops at the 16 minute mark. So I've already been in a shower for almost 20 minutes at this point, but I'm going to continue rinsing out the conditioner aka co-wash and we're going to finish up. Again, this is the Apogee Carrington Reconstructor. Next, I'm going to apply the leave-in. I'm going to use maybe, I have no idea where my camera left off at. I was adding my leave-in conditioner in my oil. My camera stops at 16 minutes and I do apologize. My battery went dead while I was recording. I did end up applying. What I was trying to say is that I normally do apply my leave-in conditioner and my oil in the shower. I don't use a lot because I style my hair two days later. Let me move on. So it was a little interesting, you guys. You saw my face. I'm animated. I know. I have not used coconut oil exclusively by itself in years. I typically use an oil mixture. So I felt like my hair was like, girl, what are you doing? We don't know if you like this. I love it. So it took a while to rinse out the coconut oil with the conditioner, basically the pre-poo, before I was able to actually co-wash my hair. Overall, I did I do it in 25 minutes or less. It was 35 minutes. So I don't know, you guys, considering that I left the pre-poo on for two hours, like I stated, those, that two hours, I could have been finger-detangling my hair, jumping a shower. I could have shampooed and conditioned my hair with the amount of time it took me to actually rinse out the pre-poo and co-wash my hair because I don't know. You have to keep in mind, too, I had gel in my hair. I use the extreme wet line drip or wet line extreme gel and so yeah. I would definitely recommend trying this if you don't have as much hair as I do. Now, I know Whitney has a lot of hair. She has a lot of hair and she has long hair. Those of us in the fourth category with wash and goes, we all know it could be a bit challenging when you detangle, which is why normally I do, regardless of finger-detangling, detangle, but especially with a wash and go, I take my time to finger-detangle. I would try this again on a looser hair, meaning an old twist out. I would not use coconut oil the next time. I would use my normal oil mixture, which consists of coconut oil, but mostly sweet almond oil. But I say give it a try, see if it works. That's it, you guys. Thank you so much for watching. Take care. Bye.
