Wash n' No Go

Hi Curly Nation!

It's ya girl MusiQ and I want to talk to you today about my frustration with the elusive Wash n' Go. I remember my first attempt at a wash n' go. *sigh* How sad of a day that was. I attempted to do a wash n' go using Eco Styler gel. I washed my hair and did a hot oil and deep condition treatment and then washed it out. I made the mistake of using a leave in conditioner other than Knot Today, which I heard is a great leave in for wash n' go's. Unfortunately, when the hair dried it left a flaky mess. In addition to that, I didn't use enough of the Eco Styler, so it dried with little to no curl definition when it was all over. Not a very good hair day at all!! March 23, 2011 marked my second try at a wash n' go and it was a successful failure. While the product I used did the job of defining my curls, the shrinkage was out of this world!! Some people may embrace shrinkage, but it always makes me look like I am two or 3 months post BC (big chop). Yeah....me no likey at all. LOL! Fast forward to the present and I am still determined to do a successful wash n' go. I will probably try again some time this summer. Don't get me wrong. I am NOT obsessed with defining my curls, but I am a fan of quick styling. This is the one reason why I am so determined to try it again. If it doesn't work out, life as we know it will go on. lol!  But enough about me. How about you ladies. Have you been frustrated with trying to achieve a successful wash n' go? Or maybe you've finally succeeded at the ultimate wash n' go. Let me know your thoughts on this subject. Until next time Curly Nation!
