Boots Curl Creme - Wash n Go

Greetings.

Wash N Go.

nothing new to the blog. this style will have me stocking up on various products to see if any outdo the other.

This post is about one of those products. 

I came across Boots Curl Creme somehow one night while I was traipsing through the internet. I was intrigued. It's cheap and readily available to ladies in the UK. Even lil ole me in random ol' Crewe.

If you follow me on Instagram, you would have seen me post about it already but I like it so much, it gets a blog post.

no parabens. no cones. under £2

I've used it two or three times now and it's been good to me all those times. I used it ALONE on damp hair. I would not recommend wet hair as it does this weird thing, 

i.e. nothing good.

I sealed with almond oil because one must seal in moisture.

no idea why my eyes have those black spots. i blame blogspot
hair damp with the curl creme in

I get a good 4-5 days when using this for a wash n go.

Soft, moisturized, fluffy, defined (ish)

Things I love when rocking a WnG.

To all my UK lovelies, try it out!

Won't set you back much if you end up hating it but I don't know why you would.

Denman Brush Wash n Go

I bought a Denman brush. After all this time, I finally got one.
Not sure what model but I got one.

Chock full of pics so peep after the jump

Winter Wash N Go

I have a love affair with wash n gos. I admit it. 

The girl who used to loathe them because they just did not look right has now a thing for em. 

I love seeing my actual curl pattern(s). This was achieved using Miss Jessie's Curly Meringue as a styler.
I think I may like their stylers for winter wash n gos.. well some. 

I used Tresemme Naturals as a leave in ..eh. 

I prefer using the Mixed Silk.. hair feels more moisturized. 

This was probably day 2/3 after being outside in the wind and rain.

I like to do my wash n go's when its cold outside the day before I plan on rocking it.

So I do it the afternoon before, giving it time to fully dry before heading out.

I apply a leave in and seal with oil before applying the styler.

I applied the Meringue in four sections.

Shrinkage at it's finest!

Back in the day, the shrinkage was too real. I don't even hate shrinkage but the different curls I have in my head.. man I couldn't rock WnGs after awhile. Right when I BC'd? sure. but then my hair grew..

Anyways.. WnG is a style I now rock.

Love wash n gos? Rock them in winter?

Wash N Go YO

So for this summer, I've been doing a lot of wash n gos. For this past year really. 

I never really did a lot of wash n gos in the past due to the varying curl patterns in my head and length at the time. After about a 2 months or so from my BC, the shape looked so awkward. 

Whenever I did one, I either pinned both the sides back or wore a headband. 

So mullet looking.. lol. I promise it looked a tad better later on

Never ever could I wear it out by itself. So last year I started doing them more and this year a bit more because of how much my hair has grown. It doesn't look weird. Well sometimes the curls by my temple (which are the loosest curls) can hang lower than the rest then its just off but I can always fluff to hide that.

So in the Summer Product Post here, the styling products you see are what I use. I just mix a combo of them.

This wash n go is the Curl & Style Milk, Smoothie & then "sealed" with the Beautiful Curls Curl Custard.

I re wet my hair and applied the Garnier to my hair.. finger detangled for a lil bit (like 5 mins tops) then rinsed. 

Look out for my vid on the diff combos I use for wash n gos!

Have you been doing wash n gos for the summer? Do you like them?

Daily Fix of Hair

 Today's fix is of....

ME!

To make up for being gone so long, I figured I should plaster myself all over my own blog.

I love finding photos of other people & their lustrous hair

but what I really love is seeing personal pics on personal blogs.

So let me do what I love to see =)

Photography by... ME!

It's the weekend!

Daily Fix of Hair

This is a wash n go I did.

-Co washed with Giovanni 50:50 Hydrating-Calming Conditioner

-Applied Tresemme Naturals afterwards & rinsed out most of it

-I then applied Mixed Silk Leave in Conditioner by Silk Elements

Ran a bit of almond oil on my hair & let it dry overnight in a pineapple.

Excuse the poor quality pics. I didn't use my camera but my Macbook.

This is a Wash N Go after being pulled into a low bun.

The twists at the front came because these hairs didn't quite make it into the bun.

Its Me again. No need for excitement guys. Lol I kid.

This is a Wash n Go. I made a video to go along with it but uhm... I don't like it :|
So I'll just have to type.

later in the night

I decided to try my hand at another WnG..
Co-washed with Giovanni 50:50 Hydrating-Calming Conditioner
Left it in for about 2 mins then rinsed out.

Used Tresemme Anti Breakage as a leave in. Wanted to try something new.
Here's the kicker.. I then applied Cantu Super Shine Hair Silk.
I've had the bottle for over a year.. used to use it when I was relaxed/transitioning but had no need for it while being natural. Decided to try it as a product to weigh my hair down and seal in the moisture.

It worked!

Best wash n go since I had a TWA. I don't do WnGs because my hair is layered and has multiple curl patterns so I usually end up with a square looking thing on my head. No Bueno.

Hair still shrunk up but it was the back part of my hair which always does that. The rest of my hair pretty much stayed at a decent length.
