Hey Everyone! 🥰 I forgot to share that this wash and go lasted me even in a very humid environment! I’m still rocking it right now and my hair still feels and looks great. I am planning to wash her today just because it’s been several days. However, I could easily go several more days. ✨🥳
Hello Beautiful Thank you so much for taking the time to share. Your hair is thriving 😍😍 How often will you be straightening your hair to check its health Are you still doing all the pre styling steps also? Epres OGX oil Deep conditioning?
Guys. I think that I’m going back to the old LOC method with my gel as topper for my wash N go. Looking back my hair was the healthiest and shiniest when I was doing this. I also had the best hold.
Gorgeous!!! You’ve mastered the wash and go Shelly!! 😍😍😍 good job! I miss doing wash n gos but I’ll live vicariously through you 😂in the meantime. Your hair is already growing so well and the shape is still shaping!!!
Shelly V this video changed my life lol. I usually don’t comment on videos but I had an appointment for a consultation to get my hair locked the next day after watching this video and I watch this video a project you use and I was like I could probably use those products too! And I am in love! Thank you, thank you thank you you saved my hair 😊
Looks great, Shelly! You keep me in stitches while also sharing your journey. Thank you for introducing me to Big Poppa. My hair is growing out from chemo and radiation and I’m loving that gel. Like you, I also rotate from adding oil before gel to adding it after the gel sets.
@@shelly.v.247 Thank you. I should’ve been more clear. It wasn’t successful but thank God I’m now in a clinical trial. Keep your videos and the laughter coming. 🙏🏽❤️
Looks really beautiful! I use Big Poppa as well and like how it holds the curl. I use Hawaiian Silky as a leave-in before the Big Poppa and my hair seems to like it. I have a Denman D9, (the smaller one) to encourage the curl but I may need to get that D38 because my hair is longer. Watching you embrace your hair as it is has been an inspiration to me. Stay beautiful!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and what you’re doing. I always love hearing about others experiences. Also I love the Denman D38. I bet you will too! 🥰
This is super cute. I am surprised as to why oils with wash and go gel sets were discouraged within the BGC method. Like what was the reason????Your hair looks so good with added oils. Plus added protection for the hair strand and the hair doesn’t lose its definition after many days!
Great point! I think they discouraged oils because sometimes you don’t get as defined curls with oil usage and it can affect longevity of the style. I think it’s bad advice and detrimental to the overall health of the hair! Awesome post! 👏🏽🥰
@@shelly.v.247 thank you Shelly. Love your insights. Funny enough if they were a lil more patient and thorough with their method before putting it out for sale they would have found out that using oils with WNG are not a problem if you find the right combos!
Love this! Your hair is gorgeous!! You were very heavy handed. Did l was there any flaking? I've had the worst luck with The Doux foams and custard. I get all kinds of flaking. I'd love to give this gel a try!
Yes girl I’m super heavy handed. It’s a sickness 🤣 Zero flaking with Big Poppa and the leave ins I’ve been playing around with. Now when I used the bee girl custard and the foam, I had flaking and my hair felt dry. No bueno for me! 😝
Indeed, a huge difference. The previous wash n go's when I used AG products, no leave in and no oil, dried out my hair till it was almost unrecognizable. I have been getting my hair cut and probably in 4-6 more months will have a new head of hair. Meanwhile I have dropped the Innersense products (I do use their sweet spirit leave in), as well as the AG products and what a difference. I guess it has been said that oils would not work well with setting the curl pattern. I do not find that to be the case. 98% of my cuts were done with my hair blown dry. I like to be able to wear my hair straight from time to time and need the cut to be well defined.
@@Smithl325749 I’m so sorry this happened to you too! However it sounds like you’re close to being fully recovered! People dont understand how bad it makes your hair until you’ve gone through it.
Your hair is absolutely beautiful, loving these videos. Question, what is your morning routine? Are you using any products for subsequent days? Thanks much
Great question! I just use a little water and the same styler and refresh any areas that need it. Some days I need to do more than others. There are also days where I don’t need to refresh at all. I just go based off how my hair looks and feels. 💖
Come on Miss ma’am. Your hair is looking gorgeous 🥰 I will def be trying this mixture of products. I love how you don’t over do the leave in and oil. I’d be walking around looking like a dripping grease ball lol 😂 also I chopped my hair on 8/3. I tried to get a cut similar to yours with length towards the front but the girl snatched all my back off. About 14 inches. I was born with more hair than what I have in the back now lol 😂 I have no idea how to fix the back. Can you tell me what brush you’re using please? Thanks again for the video. Smooches
Thank you! 🥰 I think it’s because my hair is so well hydrated and moisturized so the curls stay well put. I also will gently refresh areas that might need it during the week.
Hi!! I've been off the scene for a moment super busy, but was able to view platform today( catching up) and sis not 2 minutes in and I'm cracking up🤣🤣🤣..okay back to the video
Your hair looks amazing Shelly! ❤… the hooded when used properly is a heaven sent. And yes! You are definitely heavy handed but I am not one to judge 😂😂
Listen Sis! While, I love hair videos…I am trying more details about your strength training!! I know about those calluses personally and I see them as a badge of honor as I enjoy strength training!
Thanks for sharing your new hair journey! Definitely value your view on getting are hair back healthy! I love the hair clips you use also. Were can I purchase them?😊😊😊
Beautiful!! My hair was cut twice in a very similar style…first in 2016 and then again in early 2021. Both times I let it grow out which involved a lot of twists and updo’s. I’ve thought about cutting it again because even though I didn’t fully subscribe to BGC full method…I didn’t always use a leave in and I had stopped deep conditioning thinking a rinse out was sufficient and I no longer used oils. I do think it affected my hair in some capacity but not to the extent of yours. So a cut may be in my future.
Aww thank you so very much! 🥰 I mainly use shampoo but will sometimes cowash if I need to redo my hair right after I just washed it. That’s rare but I’m honestly just listening and paying close attention to what I feel my hair needs. 💖
I’m living for these combos! I know you mentioned that it lasts through humidity. I use innersense and feel like it doesn’t hold up against sweat/humid conditions when I workout. Do you feel like this gel is better for that?
@@shelly.v.247 I got a big chop in December, I got the Big Poppa and the Hawaiian silky that you use. My hair is frizzy and dry. I suspect it's from working in my vegetable garden with no covering ( bad move I know) I did a reconstructor and a deep conditioner. It feels a little better but I'm following you Sis!! When you have time drop us some of your favorite hair care products please! Thanks for sharing your routine. I don't use heat and no color but this unruly grey hair is whole challenge!!
No because I became allergic to them. My dermatologist told me to stop using the all natural products because they have too many essential oils and such that tend to cause allergic reactions in lots of people. 😅
@@shelly.v.247okay thank you I also think I’m allergic to them my scalp always flakes when I use it so I’m going to avoid it and see if there’s a change!

I actually just tried the adding leave in after my curls are dry. It’s a huge difference 😮😁 my curls are more springy once 70% dry.

Comes out great! How did you keep it at night and refresh in the morning to last 7 days?
Thank you! I just wore a bonnet and would lightly refresh any areas that needed it. 💖
Absolutely Beautiful. Have you tried the Moroccanoil shampoo and conditioner
Yes I have and it’s one of my favorites. It cleanses well and smells wonderful to me. Have you tried it too? 🥰
