Bet you didn't think i'd have this one out so soon 😂. The videos I post are about a week behind my actual wash days so I didn't see the point in keeping y'all hangin. Antyways, luh ya ❤.
Yes seeee omg, and then the style will last you longer because as the days go on you can just refresh pieces. With a mousse wash n go after stretching I very lightly band with scrunches and the fluff in the morning :) love the results I always comment too early in the vids lol I see how you banded and I’m in love yesss yess. Also with the gym and hair I feel ya. I do my best gym seshes when my hair is in twists for 2 weeks
@@chocolatecoils8200 if my scalp wasn’t such a itchy gal it would be a wrap. But unfortunately, I just cannot. I keep trying but I may just be a daily cowash girl and shampoo twice a week 🤷🏾♀️ But now I know that the mousse refresh is not to be played with because it was a game changer 🙌🏾
I'm on day 2 with a mousse wash and go the top section was a bit frizzy but I refresh mousse only is not for me too much volume too fast I'm a definition girl
I wouldn’t mind washing or wetting my hair everyday. It’s the drying part I have no desire to do everyday lol😂 Your hair shape fits your face perfectly by the way. ❤
I think there is nothing wrong with experimenting until you find your staples. I am glad to have staples for my weekly wash & go. I enjoy your videos and you've given me ideas for alternatives or if I am in the mood for a switch up.
The fact that I sweat a lot, it’s best for me to wash every 3 days. Plus I’m also trying to hydrate my curls more frequently like the stylist, Lou suggests. As crazy as it sounds, I find it soothing just feeling water on my hair and scalp.
It doesn’t sound crazy to me at all. Water on the scalp is a form of therapy for me because at the end of the day, as Lou states, the scalp is skin, and it needs to be cleansed. Especially if you’re living an active sweaty lifestyle. That doesn’t always mean shampoo, but it does at least mean water.
I like how the CR spiked honey mousse makes my hair feel soft and gives volume on day 1. HOWEVER, it doesn't stay fully defined for more than 2 days and I am not into refreshing my hair. On another note, can we take a moment to acknowledge your hair growth 👏🏽👏🏽.
I really appreciate your videos because ur not really a product review type of TH-camr! They definitely have their place but I prefer natural youtubers where I feel like I’m watching an open diary. It helps me re-evaluate what i’m doing myself, from a technique point of view. I feel like I get more long term opinions out your content as well. Whereas product review channels tend to be great for “first impressions”. I dont see a product come back as often as i’d like for long term benefits of xyz product. It’s also just great to be apart of your journey as I’m going through my own.
I love your volume. I love the spiked honey mousse, but I prefer a firmer holding mousse for wash and gos. Heck with folks. You know how you want your hair to feel and look.
Girl there ain’t nothing wrong with trying multiple hair brands to find your staple products because how else you gonna find them if you don’t try other hair brands. Hell I found some of my staple products but still try other brands just in case I might like something else even better. Also depending on the length of your hair you may lean toward a product you didn’t like when your hair was short or vice versa. Just keep doin your thang girl and do what is best for you. I love watching your videos and you have introduced me to products I have never even heard of that I don’t see other influencers using. This era that we are in is the best for us naturals to explore how we want to style our hair and use it to express ourself.
I'm a natural girl also, and have been for many, many years. My style is the twist out, l wash and style my hair once for the week. I twist at night to avoid frizz, and if I need to apply twisting cream on Wednesday if it feels dry.
You’re such a gem. We have the same hair type and length, and I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. Also appreciate your calm and soothing personality. The quality of your content is also top tier. Thank you.
The reason why I love your videos is because you try so many things and give honest reviews. Im the same way, I feel like your videos are raw and relatable. But nonetheless your hair looks amazing like always ❤️
I remember the first time I used The spiked honey mousse, and my hair was so fluffy, so light and so bouncy, I fell in love with it! And to your point it's extremely moisturizing so I'm really really liking this wash and go on you!!!!!
I washed my hair every day for a month, and then I washed my hair every other day for another 2 months. It was great! I was woking a later shift at the time so I had time to wash and dry my hair in the morning, and didn't really have to worry about keeping my set intact overnight. Detangling was a 5 minute deal , very little shedding and my hair felt amazing every day. If my scheduled didn't change I probably would still do it. As of now I wash my hair twice a week.
I’m a busy STEM major and I wash my hair every 2-3 weeks. Between those weeks that I don’t use shampoo, I use the ACV hair rinse by dp hue. It’s literally so easy, you wet your hair, put in on and it dissolves the product buildup. It says on the bottle it’s a shampoo alternative and it leaves your hair so soft. I literally do that and go right into styling. Literally a miracle refresh
I appreciate your honesty and attention to detail, while giving folks the option to skip around. It's Your hair journey to find Your holy grails. I'm happy to watch. Big ups to your effort!
Hello, Britney Have you tried just sleeping on a satin pillowcase? No banding no satin cap. I put two zipper satin pillowcases on my pillows and the reason why I use more than one I found out that my hair would not be dried out. I basically just shake my hair and go. I hope you give it a try and see how it does for you
This wash week I did a mousse wash n go. I revisited the mousse def. I did it on friday night and couldn't stand my hair, The stickiness and tangle. The last time I used it it was fine. It's like I forgot how to use it ( maybe to much product). I wash my hair today (did a pony tail with the ends braided). I like how Anthony Dicked explained how to set wash n go but I can see my self washig my hair and goind under the dryer every day. Maybe I'll try someday (I need to be on vacation for that).
I wash my hair every Monday and Thursday/Friday because I am in the gym all week. I love styling with mousse- it’s honestly the quickest and easiest, but the spiked honey doesn’t last as long or last through my wild sleeping (I don’t wear a bonnet just have a silk pillowcase). My curls feel very soft but usually end up looking big and smushed after 2 days lol 👎🏽. Ultimately botanical gels give me the best results even after working out for days. That being said, I just used crazy sexy curl mousse with Innersense curl cream as my base and that has held up quite nicely. I do wash my hair twice a week though so I’m not looking for something that can hold a style for 7 days. If I needed that though, it would be Innersense gel. I just bought their I create definition foam though, because I am determined to find a mousse/foam that can cut down styling time and hold up for 1 product wash and go 😂.
Thanks for sharing this! As I’m using more leave in with mousse I’m heading back into my creams because that’s just where it’s at for me. I’ll eventually hit the botanical gels again. They really do hold up well, I just hate waiting days for the look I want.
I do the resetting method that MKH talks about, but I never go in with just mousse - I use water. I find that it reactivates the mousse that is already in my hair and I don’t need to apply more product. I do find myself wanting to try some of the mousses you’ve used so far in this series. I’ve only ever used the Doux 🧐 I also completely understand what you mean about wanting to wash your hair more frequently. I wash mine about every 4 days and I would honestly do it more than that if I had the time and/or energy
Thanks for sharing. I was so worried about hydration, but I did enjoy the recast although I did use more product. You should give them a try! And now that I’ve been cold washing, I’ve scratched that itch on wanting to wash my hair more often. Just an update. 🤗
Listen to your intuition. I wash my hair everyday or every other day with shampoo and it feels right. I haven't experienced any breakage. My hair literally feel stronger because it's getting moisturized. The key is to find a shampoo that works for you. I also use deep conditioner instead of conditioner. Find what works for you and bump everyone else's opinion. The minute I did that the more free I felt and my hair loved me for it
Same... "staple products and routine". I think I've found mine and am done experimenting. My testing phase didn't last long. Lol. But that's thanks in part to vids like yours.
Right now I’m having a lot of fun trying things out. But mostly because I’ve been eliminating products and finding some really awesome staples. I love when something doesn’t work because now I no longer have the desire to make a product work just because of the brand name or the creator of the products. It doesn’t matter, all that matters is that it works for me and I love using it. Thanks for sharing!
I watched this video last night and you mentioned the Anthony Dickey method. It got me thinking about revisiting it! When I got home from work, I watched his video and got in the shower after watching it! I did exactly what he said, wash with water, relax with conditioner and set with styling products in the shower. I could immediately tell the difference after I “relaxed”with AG ACV Boost conditioner! I set my hair with I create Hold! My hair is elongated the way I always wanted it to always be. My hair would always shrink a lot when I use ICH with UFD! I stopped using his method because I went through a period of wearing wigs, keeping my hair in protective styling because I didn’t want to deal with my hair. Thanks mentioning Anthony’s styling method!🤗🤗 PS. I failed to mention how easy this is for me!!
Also another way to shape your hair the next morning is to turn the shower on hot let it run and just stand in the bathroom for about 5 minutes and it will look brand new just from the steam. Don't get in the shower, lol just you know sit down or whatever and let the steam from the shower relax your strands, it works every time 😊
I have tight curls but the front of my hair isn't as curly . I use a scarf and tie my hair back at night and I take morning showers. I think the steam from the shower kinda reactivates the product in my hair and allows me to more easily reshape my hair after sleeping on it . I wait until after I've showered and see how my hair has unstiffened then style and stretch .
Thank you so much. I am also still searching. For the products that work for me as well. 7 yeaes natural. Dryness is a struggle for me. And I don't like going to bed with wet hair. I think I am going to try to dry my hair for bed. I love your hair.
This wng is pretty…very similar to the trepadora one. It seems that u much prefer the flax seed gel wngs…u always seem super happy and excited with those results. I watch your videos daily and u have truly helped me decide how I like my wngs to look and what products to use..i much prefer mousses then custards…leave-ins don’t really work for me. Just the one product is all I like. Thanks Brittany❤…keep up the great videos.
I did prefer the flaxseed gel washing, goes with my hair with shorter, and I was craving that coily definition. Now that my hair is getting longer, I detest the flatness that comes with that kind of definition. I love a good custard. They’re like the sweet spot between gel and mousse. Tfs!
First, thanks for showing how do your puffs. Second, I'm not wearing wash n gos at the moment so I currently wash, treat/condition once a week though I did do several twice a week stints in the past. I notice less shedding when I wash my hair twice a week. I do have a scalp that likes to itch in certain spots so maybe I will consider doing my hair twice a week indefinitely but have not made that decision yet. Third, I would be very interested in seeing you experiment with the Anthony Dickey Method. I watched a couple of his videos a few years ago and I liked his method though I never tried it.
I also end up refreshing the spiked honey and Treluxe mousse as suggested by Mo Knows Hair. I tried the Anthony Dickey method years ago. That mess was tiring.
i wet every day , refresh on & wash 5-7 days and i'm seeing less fairy knots , less breakage, growth retention but i'm looking for the right products so far, Camille Rose Honey Leave In is my only staple...
The growth is very very noticeable now since the last 3 uploads! Lovee your hair and content 🥰 Oh I finally styled my hair like you do right in the shower and not only did it feel like it flowed so easy it also did so much for my curls, it's been a day and I FINALLY wore my natural curls out omg something I always wanted to do but always felt discouraged about cause my hair wouldn't look 'presentable' and yeah sure each side is at different lengths 🙄 but i think it looks ok 😆 now I just have to keep it up and maintain the growth I keep losing out on cause i leave my hair dry and it breaks off 😩
I love all the feedback, positive or otherwise, i recently used the crazy, sexy curl mousse from the Doux and I loved the turnout, but I felt like my hair was dry, so hearing you say it too made me like “ohhh, see I knew my hair was dry” and now I’m gonna add some leave in when I use it again. So I think it’s all incredibly beneficial and I’m enjoying following you on this journey.
I told you sistah ain't nothing like a good recasting, and her name is mo knows hair. Not best lol. Beautiful results! In the formulation of the Camille rose mousse, the ingredient for hold, is much lower after all of the humectants and extracts. Which is why it feels richer and heavier. The shape you're looking for, is a triangular mushroom. Aka one length, but with a round perimeter! The front can be cut 1/2 to 1 inch shorter for the bang. Lastly, the ouidad climate control gel extra hold on top of any mousse is phenomenal.
I love this WNG ! I’m very tempted to try but I’m scared lol I would love to be a mousse only wng girly but prior experience shows that I most likely will never be. I get what you’re saying about the volume & how you’d like your hair to grow. I have natural volume no matter the products , my hair grows out instead of down, no matter the length. It gets super big first & then with length it may hang.
@@BrittanyMia So, I finally gave this a try and I love it. I also really like the smell 🤭 My hair makes it to day 2 and it seems to elongate my curls. I've decided to use this styler when I'm short on time and need to get out the door because it dries really fast. Also, it does work to refresh with the mousse on dry hair but I'd rather water rinse and then reapply.
Hi Brittany, I agree with you. If I am going to go through the time an efforts of a reset, I will do a wash hour. Period my scalp has never been better. Love your content!
Hey girl! I love this fluffly WNG on you it's a vibe. I go to them gym a lot, and I just listen to my scalp honestly. Sometimes I can go 5, before it's icky lol. Sometimes I get into a 2 aday zone and I do wash my hair everyday. I keep ACV and water in a spray bottle, and spray my hair down then put big twists in. No detangling or anything and when I rinse that out the products just come out I follow up with cowash. I do that for 2 days and on 3rd day shampoo and use rinse out conditioner. On weekend deep condition. This works great for me and actually when I'm doing this my hair doesn't get as tangled and I can style faster. Looking forward to what you do next. Thanks for video💜
Im so glad you tried this mousse as I was thinking about buying. Sounds like the smell will make this a no go for me. I am enjoying your product journey. Keep up the great work.
Heeeey there!!! So I’m thinking that most mousses would give a non-crunch medium hold volume/fluffy style whether it be a wash n go or a twist out. AND NOT RELATED TO THIS VIDEO I tried that Pattern Beauty detangling nectar 😍 I’m gonna use that as a leave in for my next wash n go
Girl, it looks like your hair is in the full anagen phase, and it's rapid! Those strands are just jumping out of your scalp.🤣🥰 I wouldn't worry too much about satisfaction level. We are all different with our hair and what our expectations are. So do your thing and continue to work with your stylist to reach your satisfaction with the outcome of the products you use. I try to keep my resets to 3 times a week at most, but with my scalp condition if it itches I need to shampoo. Mousse only, depending on the mousse, will give me 3 to 4 days. However, I prefer how my set looks when I apply a mousse over UFD. Keep playing around with it you will find what you like best. I know people say what works for you, but technically it all works it's more about the look, hold, and longevity that fits your personal aesthetic.
You inspired me to try a mousse only wash and go today....Doux honey mousse was on sale at target today. I was like it's meant to be! Bruh.......my fro looked like a cotton ball. No definition whatsoever. And I loved how it applied and felt. But when it dried....😢
I was just about to buy this from Target, but as someone who needs a lot of hold and crunch from their stylers, this doesn't seem like it would be enough hold for me in the slightest. Thanks for helping me be a more informed consumer! 💕
I go to Lou for my curly cuts and she recommended I use Ouidad cleansing conditioner as a co wash for daily washing. Haven’t tried it yet but it’s been on mind mind to test it out.
I’ve tried it before, and I did not like it. However, the way I tried it was to add it all over my hair and scalp. What I learned from that is, it’s better used as a shampoo in conjunction with a regular conditioner. I feel like a cowash product is for my scalp, whereas cowashing with conditioner is for my hair. It would not be a stripping as a shampoo, but it’s also not as hydrating as a conditioner so in between shampoo, I’d rather use it only on my scalp, and then add conditioner to the rest of my hair. Mind you, I haven’t tried it this way, but I will re-purchase that product and try it again because you mentioning that product makes me very curious as to how that would work out.
It’s been a while since I watched the Mo Knows Hair video, but I think she used a lot less mousse on her refresh (could be wrong). Anyway, I’m wondering if you might want to move into doing more gel/mousse combos after you finish the mousse series. I’ve seen base gel with mousse on top, or mousse as the base with a bit of gel on top. So much to try! Also, if you have a silk or satin pillowcase you could try sleeping directly on it
Most likely. I used a lot. I will eventually move into using and trying gel/mousse combos. My only concern with that is flat hair, but I guess that’s where the mousse can come into play. I agree, so much to try! The reason why I don’t sleep directly on the satin pillowcase is because of my sensitive skin and acne. I get when Ive done that. I also just don’t like sleeping on loose hair. Tfs!
Your hair is absolutely stunning. We have similar curl patterns. I’ve been natural for 10yrs and what I’ve come to realize is the less you wash your hair and the more you leave it alone the more it grows. Take people with locs for instance they don’t usually use a lot of products so they are able to retain length. Washing max every 2 weeks and if you can go longer without washing the better. That “icky” feeling you were getting on your hair is the product weighing your hair down bc it’s being overloaded with products. I understand you sweat in your scalp from the gym I would suggest twisting it up instead of reapplying more product in the week.
I can only speak for my own hair, but that way my scalp and hair is set up, it grows more if I wash more. My head cannot stand to be dry. I literally cut my hair all the time because I don't want long hair and it grows right back. I just do the "Dickey method" and wash every 2-4 days because that is the quickest and easiest way and it takes me about 10 min. I use a moisturizing detangling shampoo (ie Camille rose castor oil or African pride honey) and a slippery product (ie Uncle Funkys or African pride aloe gel). I try to deep condition every 1-2 weeks. I'm getting older and lazier, and I just want to shake my hair and go. Also I work with animals, so I need my hair to be clean frequently.
Mousse really gives you crazy volume, and I'm here for it! ❤ Since you are doing this mousse wash & go series, have you considered Lotta Body Wrap & Foam Mousse? I love it and it's so cheap! It's my go to styler, and I'd just be curious to see if you dig it or not.
I don't care for mousse wash and gos in my hair because it easily gets messed up after stretching. It doesn't even last a day for me. I have tried the Mielle mousse, doux, and the Camille spiked honey and the same results. They look promising while wet and that's it 💯
Can you do a review using Miche products, their mousse specifically. They’re products look like they work great but I would like to see what you think and how it works with your dense curls.
When applying the mousse did you just apply then let it dry? When I tried to use it it still had a lot of foam still in my hair and I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to just leave it there to dry
So from what I know about the K18 mask, you're supposed to apply it to damp hair and leave it in undisturbed and undiluted for the full 4 minutes before you do anything else to your hair (rinse it out, apply conditioner, apply styling products, etc). So when I see you add water to your hair while applying the K18, I'm pretty sure that deactivates the peptide rebonding process within the K18. If I were you, I'd consult K18 on IG and ask them if how you're currently applying it is OK or if you need to use another method because I'd hate for you to waste that salon size bottle of K18 because you're not using it in the most effective way.
I have sensitive skin and anytime I do that I end up getting a little bit of acne. And sleeping with loose hair just makes me uncomfortable lol. But you have a point, the bonnet does act like a mold.
😅 I cringe as you wash it out because that is thee single most expensive hair product - I go in with Clarifying/demineralizing shampoo, apply *1 or 2* pumps of the k18 mask on Damp hair. Then I wait like 4 minutes. Then follow up with ag cloud and I create hold, maybe some I create volume. Perfect washngo. The next wash is even more perfect.
Okay I think I’m gonna refresh my hair with this mousse today 😂 it’s one of my favorites. I use it in an “unconventional” way though. Mainly for sleek buns and smoothing flyaways and individual curls. Not really a perm rod girlie 🧍🏽♀️
How many times a week do you wash your hair? I’m trying to figure out am I supposed to deep condition once every week or once a month everybody keeps saying different things.
Deep conditioner is a treatment, really I now only do it maybe every 2-3 weeks and will just regularly condition in the shower with a 3 min conditioner
Like chocolate coils said, deep conditioner is a treatment. I choose to deep condition a lot because of how often I shampoo my hair for these videos, plus I just love deep conditioner. At the end of the day, you’re gonna have to do an experiment and test out the amount of time you need in between deep conditioning sessions. Maybe try just using regular conditioner for a few washes and see how your hair feels after 1 or 2 weeks of that.
Water is our hair’s best friend. Remember there’s a difference between hydration and moisture. Hydration comes from water which helps our hair retain moisture and moisture comes from the products used, i.e, oils, conditioners, creams, mousses… y’all get the point😊
This is an older video, but you aren't using K-18 correctly. You pump it into your hands emulsify till it looks like a paste and then run it through your hair. You are using too much of it! Your hair looks beautiful as usual! Your curl pattern is so pretty!!😊
As someone with the same damn curl pattern, I feel that you're shampooing and detangling your curls too much. Stripping down and breaking up curls just has the tendency to make them harder to clump up in the future. The Anthony Dickie method worked for me despite it being a lot of work, it keeps the same curls in place and the most you'll do is finger detangle and cowash. When you hear the phrase "moisture trained" and "curl trained" that's what they mean.
Hair twin! You know, you’re right. Since I’ve been trying these mousses, I’ve been over shampooing my hair and it’s starting to catch up with me so I’ve pivoted and I just started cowashing last week. I have a video coming about it in a few days but it’s been a game changer for moisture retention.
@@BrittanyMia Cowashes are incredible, I used to be so against them because the thought of not shampooing my scalp is just unsettling, but in regards to my hair it's a gamechanger. I personally find that the way our ish is set up the trick to saving time is keeping the hair moist and curly than trying to find quick routines. Our shit is just too thick and curly to get these thin products to work fast imo lol
Bet you didn't think i'd have this one out so soon 😂. The videos I post are about a week behind my actual wash days so I didn't see the point in keeping y'all hangin. Antyways, luh ya ❤.

Hello, Britney
Have you tried just sleeping on a satin pillowcase? No banding no satin cap. I put two zipper satin pillowcases on my pillows and the reason why I use more than one I found out that my hair would not be dried out. I basically just shake my hair and go. I hope you give it a try and see how it does for you
I don’t like sleeping with loose hair. Irritates my sleep and my skin lol but I’ve tried it. Thanks for sharing!
This wash week I did a mousse wash n go. I revisited the mousse def. I did it on friday night and couldn't stand my hair, The stickiness and tangle. The last time I used it it was fine. It's like I forgot how to use it ( maybe to much product). I wash my hair today (did a pony tail with the ends braided). I like how Anthony Dicked explained how to set wash n go but I can see my self washig my hair and goind under the dryer every day. Maybe I'll try someday (I need to be on vacation for that).
I appreciate your dedication to trying this stuff
Thank you 🙏🏾
Camille Rose Products >>>>❤️
So glad that you work for you! I just can’t get over the smell.
I understand how you feel about wanting water daily bc same lmbo I’m currently dealing w/ if every other day is too much but I like it.
How do you dry your hair?
I know you asked this question a couple videos ago but I enjoy the long videos since I am one of those people who enjoy seeing the whole process.
Thanks for sharing 🤗
I wash my hair every Monday and Thursday/Friday because I am in the gym all week. I love styling with mousse- it’s honestly the quickest and easiest, but the spiked honey doesn’t last as long or last through my wild sleeping (I don’t wear a bonnet just have a silk pillowcase). My curls feel very soft but usually end up looking big and smushed after 2 days lol 👎🏽. Ultimately botanical gels give me the best results even after working out for days. That being said, I just used crazy sexy curl mousse with Innersense curl cream as my base and that has held up quite nicely. I do wash my hair twice a week though so I’m not looking for something that can hold a style for 7 days. If I needed that though, it would be Innersense gel. I just bought their I create definition foam though, because I am determined to find a mousse/foam that can cut down styling time and hold up for 1 product wash and go 😂.
Thanks for sharing this! As I’m using more leave in with mousse I’m heading back into my creams because that’s just where it’s at for me. I’ll eventually hit the botanical gels again. They really do hold up well, I just hate waiting days for the look I want.
I do the resetting method that MKH talks about, but I never go in with just mousse - I use water. I find that it reactivates the mousse that is already in my hair and I don’t need to apply more product. I do find myself wanting to try some of the mousses you’ve used so far in this series. I’ve only ever used the Doux 🧐 I also completely understand what you mean about wanting to wash your hair more frequently. I wash mine about every 4 days and I would honestly do it more than that if I had the time and/or energy
Thanks for sharing. I was so worried about hydration, but I did enjoy the recast although I did use more product. You should give them a try! And now that I’ve been cold washing, I’ve scratched that itch on wanting to wash my hair more often. Just an update. 🤗
Listen to your intuition. I wash my hair everyday or every other day with shampoo and it feels right. I haven't experienced any breakage. My hair literally feel stronger because it's getting moisturized. The key is to find a shampoo that works for you. I also use deep conditioner instead of conditioner. Find what works for you and bump everyone else's opinion. The minute I did that the more free I felt and my hair loved me for it
👆🏾🫱🏾🫲🏿 yes to this. Thank you, I will.
Same... "staple products and routine". I think I've found mine and am done experimenting. My testing phase didn't last long. Lol. But that's thanks in part to vids like yours.
Right now I’m having a lot of fun trying things out. But mostly because I’ve been eliminating products and finding some really awesome staples. I love when something doesn’t work because now I no longer have the desire to make a product work just because of the brand name or the creator of the products. It doesn’t matter, all that matters is that it works for me and I love using it. Thanks for sharing!
@@BrittanyMia yep, exactly!
You stood in the shower wet for an hour 😩😩😩. That’s dedication !!
🫱🏾🫲🏿
I watched this video last night and you mentioned the Anthony Dickey method. It got me thinking about revisiting it! When I got home from work, I watched his video and got in the shower after watching it! I did exactly what he said, wash with water, relax with conditioner and set with styling products in the shower. I could immediately tell the difference after I “relaxed”with AG ACV Boost conditioner! I set my hair with I create Hold! My hair is elongated the way I always wanted it to always be. My hair would always shrink a lot when I use ICH with UFD! I stopped using his method because I went through a period of wearing wigs, keeping my hair in protective styling because I didn’t want to deal with my hair. Thanks mentioning Anthony’s styling method!🤗🤗
PS. I failed to mention how easy this is for me!!
That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing 💕.
Also another way to shape your hair the next morning is to turn the shower on hot let it run and just stand in the bathroom for about 5 minutes and it will look brand new just from the steam. Don't get in the shower, lol just you know sit down or whatever and let the steam from the shower relax your strands, it works every time 😊
Thanks for the tip 😊
I do this the day after wash day when I take my hair out of the bands. It helps relax my strands and takes away the band lines when there are any
Hey there! Your hair is always gorgeous with all the products. It’s fun to watch you try the products, but the journey may be endless…😊
Truly endless. But that’s fun lol.
I have tight curls but the front of my hair isn't as curly . I use a scarf and tie my hair back at night and I take morning showers. I think the steam from the shower kinda reactivates the product in my hair and allows me to more easily reshape my hair after sleeping on it . I wait until after I've showered and see how my hair has unstiffened then style and stretch .
I am with you . I live in a dry climate and my hair does not stay hydrated past 2 days a big dilemma. Definitely enjoyed the mousse series.
A true dilemma 😮💨
Day 1 hair is so beautiful!
Thanks!
Thank you so much.
I am also still searching.
For the products that work for me as well.
7 yeaes natural.
Dryness is a struggle for me.
And I don't like going to bed with wet hair.
I think I am going to try to dry my hair for bed.
I love your hair.
I love how much you complain because I am the same way.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’ve found my folk!
Same especially when it comes to my hair
I am definitely a complainer lmao
This wng is pretty…very similar to the trepadora one. It seems that u much prefer the flax seed gel wngs…u always seem super happy and excited with those results. I watch your videos daily and u have truly helped me decide how I like my wngs to look and what products to use..i much prefer mousses then custards…leave-ins don’t really work for me. Just the one product is all I like. Thanks Brittany❤…keep up the great videos.
I did prefer the flaxseed gel washing, goes with my hair with shorter, and I was craving that coily definition. Now that my hair is getting longer, I detest the flatness that comes with that kind of definition. I love a good custard. They’re like the sweet spot between gel and mousse. Tfs!
First, thanks for showing how do your puffs. Second, I'm not wearing wash n gos at the moment so I currently wash, treat/condition once a week though I did do several twice a week stints in the past. I notice less shedding when I wash my hair twice a week. I do have a scalp that likes to itch in certain spots so maybe I will consider doing my hair twice a week indefinitely but have not made that decision yet. Third, I would be very interested in seeing you experiment with the Anthony Dickey Method. I watched a couple of his videos a few years ago and I liked his method though I never tried it.
I also end up refreshing the spiked honey and Treluxe mousse as suggested by Mo Knows Hair.
I tried the Anthony Dickey method years ago. That mess was tiring.
i wet every day , refresh on & wash 5-7 days and i'm seeing less fairy knots , less breakage, growth retention
but i'm looking for the right products
so far, Camille Rose Honey Leave In is my only staple...
I love this I use it with ufd I wonder if you'll like that combo. You'll definitely have to stretch it tho.
The growth is very very noticeable now since the last 3 uploads! Lovee your hair and content 🥰 Oh I finally styled my hair like you do right in the shower and not only did it feel like it flowed so easy it also did so much for my curls, it's been a day and I FINALLY wore my natural curls out omg something I always wanted to do but always felt discouraged about cause my hair wouldn't look 'presentable' and yeah sure each side is at different lengths 🙄 but i think it looks ok 😆 now I just have to keep it up and maintain the growth I keep losing out on cause i leave my hair dry and it breaks off 😩
Thank you. There you go! Just have to keep it up and it’ll get easier.
I love all the feedback, positive or otherwise, i recently used the crazy, sexy curl mousse from the Doux and I loved the turnout, but I felt like my hair was dry, so hearing you say it too made me like “ohhh, see I knew my hair was dry” and now I’m gonna add some leave in when I use it again. So I think it’s all incredibly beneficial and I’m enjoying following you on this journey.
Thanks for being here and sharing your experience! Yeah, the dryness was very real.
I told you sistah ain't nothing like a good recasting, and her name is mo knows hair. Not best lol. Beautiful results! In the formulation of the Camille rose mousse, the ingredient for hold, is much lower after all of the humectants and extracts. Which is why it feels richer and heavier. The shape you're looking for, is a triangular mushroom. Aka one length, but with a round perimeter! The front can be cut 1/2 to 1 inch shorter for the bang. Lastly, the ouidad climate control gel extra hold on top of any mousse is phenomenal.
Haha thanks for the correction on her name. I appreciate the info.
Your hair looks wonderful. I love the volume! I also see how well your hair is growing.🤩
Gracias ☺️
I love this WNG ! I’m very tempted to try but I’m scared lol I would love to be a mousse only wng girly but prior experience shows that I most likely will never be. I get what you’re saying about the volume & how you’d like your hair to grow. I have natural volume no matter the products , my hair grows out instead of down, no matter the length. It gets super big first & then with length it may hang.
Oooh, I'm here for it!
💕🇿🇦✊🏾
💕
@@BrittanyMia So, I finally gave this a try and I love it. I also really like the smell 🤭
My hair makes it to day 2 and it seems to elongate my curls.
I've decided to use this styler when I'm short on time and need to get out the door because it dries really fast. Also, it does work to refresh with the mousse on dry hair but I'd rather water rinse and then reapply.
Hi Brittany, I agree with you. If I am going to go through the time an efforts of a reset, I will do a wash hour. Period my scalp has never been better. Love your content!
👏🏾👏🏾 thank you!!
I love your hair😍
Thank you 💕
I used this mousse today, but I used it for a twist-out, and topped it with a gel for better hold. Wish me luck.
Luck 🍀
Hey girl! I love this fluffly WNG on you it's a vibe. I go to them gym a lot, and I just listen to my scalp honestly. Sometimes I can go 5, before it's icky lol. Sometimes I get into a 2 aday zone and I do wash my hair everyday. I keep ACV and water in a spray bottle, and spray my hair down then put big twists in. No detangling or anything and when I rinse that out the products just come out I follow up with cowash. I do that for 2 days and on 3rd day shampoo and use rinse out conditioner. On weekend deep condition. This works great for me and actually when I'm doing this my hair doesn't get as tangled and I can style faster. Looking forward to what you do next. Thanks for video💜
Love this demo~ I’m with you on the smell ~ product is definitely a keeper! Thanks for sharing 👛👛
Thanks for watching!
I like it better when you refresh
Same. It looked a lot better.
Im so glad you tried this mousse as I was thinking about buying. Sounds like the smell will make this a no go for me. I am enjoying your product journey. Keep up the great work.
Thank you ☺️
I just bought this mousse and I’m eager to see how it compares to my fave, mousse def 😄
Let us know how it compares when you try it!
Heeeey there!!! So I’m thinking that most mousses would give a non-crunch medium hold volume/fluffy style whether it be a wash n go or a twist out. AND NOT RELATED TO THIS VIDEO I tried that Pattern Beauty detangling nectar 😍 I’m gonna use that as a leave in for my next wash n go
Girl, it looks like your hair is in the full anagen phase, and it's rapid! Those strands are just jumping out of your scalp.🤣🥰 I wouldn't worry too much about satisfaction level. We are all different with our hair and what our expectations are. So do your thing and continue to work with your stylist to reach your satisfaction with the outcome of the products you use.
I try to keep my resets to 3 times a week at most, but with my scalp condition if it itches I need to shampoo. Mousse only, depending on the mousse, will give me 3 to 4 days. However, I prefer how my set looks when I apply a mousse over UFD. Keep playing around with it you will find what you like best. I know people say what works for you, but technically it all works it's more about the look, hold, and longevity that fits your personal aesthetic.
I like what you are doing it give me some ideas on what to do with my wash and go
I just bought the mouse at Walmart, I am going to try it.
Once you give it a try, let me know how it works out for you!
You inspired me to try a mousse only wash and go today....Doux honey mousse was on sale at target today. I was like it's meant to be! Bruh.......my fro looked like a cotton ball. No definition whatsoever. And I loved how it applied and felt. But when it dried....😢
Omg I’m sorry 😅 I feel your pain. Mousse is challenging. I think it’s better with a leave-in! I need to try it again.
I was just about to buy this from Target, but as someone who needs a lot of hold and crunch from their stylers, this doesn't seem like it would be enough hold for me in the slightest. Thanks for helping me be a more informed consumer! 💕
Absolutely 👍🏾 thanks for watching!
I go to Lou for my curly cuts and she recommended I use Ouidad cleansing conditioner as a co wash for daily washing. Haven’t tried it yet but it’s been on mind mind to test it out.
I’ve tried it before, and I did not like it. However, the way I tried it was to add it all over my hair and scalp. What I learned from that is, it’s better used as a shampoo in conjunction with a regular conditioner. I feel like a cowash product is for my scalp, whereas cowashing with conditioner is for my hair. It would not be a stripping as a shampoo, but it’s also not as hydrating as a conditioner so in between shampoo, I’d rather use it only on my scalp, and then add conditioner to the rest of my hair.
Mind you, I haven’t tried it this way, but I will re-purchase that product and try it again because you mentioning that product makes me very curious as to how that would work out.
It’s been a while since I watched the Mo Knows Hair video, but I think she used a lot less mousse on her refresh (could be wrong). Anyway, I’m wondering if you might want to move into doing more gel/mousse combos after you finish the mousse series. I’ve seen base gel with mousse on top, or mousse as the base with a bit of gel on top. So much to try! Also, if you have a silk or satin pillowcase you could try sleeping directly on it
Most likely. I used a lot. I will eventually move into using and trying gel/mousse combos. My only concern with that is flat hair, but I guess that’s where the mousse can come into play. I agree, so much to try! The reason why I don’t sleep directly on the satin pillowcase is because of my sensitive skin and acne. I get when Ive done that. I also just don’t like sleeping on loose hair. Tfs!
I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me after watching the previous video 😅.
Me tooooo!! 😂😂😂😂
not alone..gang-gang lol
Your hair is absolutely stunning. We have similar curl patterns. I’ve been natural for 10yrs and what I’ve come to realize is the less you wash your hair and the more you leave it alone the more it grows. Take people with locs for instance they don’t usually use a lot of products so they are able to retain length. Washing max every 2 weeks and if you can go longer without washing the better. That “icky” feeling you were getting on your hair is the product weighing your hair down bc it’s being overloaded with products. I understand you sweat in your scalp from the gym I would suggest twisting it up instead of reapplying more product in the week.
Thank you. And thank you for sharing your insight.
I can only speak for my own hair, but that way my scalp and hair is set up, it grows more if I wash more. My head cannot stand to be dry. I literally cut my hair all the time because I don't want long hair and it grows right back. I just do the "Dickey method" and wash every 2-4 days because that is the quickest and easiest way and it takes me about 10 min. I use a moisturizing detangling shampoo (ie Camille rose castor oil or African pride honey) and a slippery product (ie Uncle Funkys or African pride aloe gel). I try to deep condition every 1-2 weeks. I'm getting older and lazier, and I just want to shake my hair and go. Also I work with animals, so I need my hair to be clean frequently.
Mousse really gives you crazy volume, and I'm here for it! ❤
Since you are doing this mousse wash & go series, have you considered Lotta Body Wrap & Foam Mousse? I love it and it's so cheap! It's my go to styler, and I'd just be curious to see if you dig it or not.
Same! 🖤 yes, I do have it and plan on using it in a future video. Thanks!
I don't care for mousse wash and gos in my hair because it easily gets messed up after stretching. It doesn't even last a day for me. I have tried the Mielle mousse, doux, and the Camille spiked honey and the same results. They look promising while wet and that's it 💯
Mousse only or mousse with any combo won’t last for you?
I think mousse works best with another gel. Also, which hard hooded dryer do you have? I have one but I don't like it
The link to the dryer I use in my description box!
Can you do a review using Miche products, their mousse specifically. They’re products look like they work great but I would like to see what you think and how it works with your dense curls.
Noted!
When applying the mousse did you just apply then let it dry? When I tried to use it it still had a lot of foam still in my hair and I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to just leave it there to dry
lol you are funny ! and Stubborn ! lol
🤣 quite stubborn I am.
I like that mousse. It's very moisturizing but I need a gel. Did I see DST Greek letters on your shirt?
Yeees ya did.
@@BrittanyMia ok, Soror! 😊
So from what I know about the K18 mask, you're supposed to apply it to damp hair and leave it in undisturbed and undiluted for the full 4 minutes before you do anything else to your hair (rinse it out, apply conditioner, apply styling products, etc). So when I see you add water to your hair while applying the K18, I'm pretty sure that deactivates the peptide rebonding process within the K18.
If I were you, I'd consult K18 on IG and ask them if how you're currently applying it is OK or if you need to use another method because I'd hate for you to waste that salon size bottle of K18 because you're not using it in the most effective way.
I tried this mousse & had good results, but it smelled like butterscotch to me. Have you tried the TGIN rose mousse?
Not yet, but I have it to try.
Have you try just sleep with a satin pillow case no bonnet and see what it would be like with the mousse only wash and go
The bonnet to me acts just like a mold and the hair just takes the shape of the mold
I have sensitive skin and anytime I do that I end up getting a little bit of acne. And sleeping with loose hair just makes me uncomfortable lol. But you have a point, the bonnet does act like a mold.
😅 I cringe as you wash it out because that is thee single most expensive hair product - I go in with Clarifying/demineralizing shampoo, apply *1 or 2* pumps of the k18 mask on Damp hair. Then I wait like 4 minutes. Then follow up with ag cloud and I create hold, maybe some I create volume. Perfect washngo. The next wash is even more perfect.
I know 🫣. I do not know what one or two pumps is doing for you guys, but I hear you. Thanks for the combo recommendation though.
First ❤❤❤
🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
Have you ever co washed and added the mousse?
Teeeheheheh that’s what I’ve done this past week. Expect a video coming later this week. 🤗
@@BrittanyMia I asked because I’m lazy 😂
@@81redddd 🤣
Okay I think I’m gonna refresh my hair with this mousse today 😂 it’s one of my favorites. I use it in an “unconventional” way though. Mainly for sleek buns and smoothing flyaways and individual curls. Not really a perm rod girlie 🧍🏽♀️
I can do a bomb wash and go but preserving at night has me all over the place. I randomly do different things.
That my issue as well. I don’t like banding. It’s uncomfortable to sleep in but it works.
👍🏾
How many times a week do you wash your hair? I’m trying to figure out am I supposed to deep condition once every week or once a month everybody keeps saying different things.
Deep conditioner is a treatment, really I now only do it maybe every 2-3 weeks and will just regularly condition in the shower with a 3 min conditioner
Like chocolate coils said, deep conditioner is a treatment. I choose to deep condition a lot because of how often I shampoo my hair for these videos, plus I just love deep conditioner.
At the end of the day, you’re gonna have to do an experiment and test out the amount of time you need in between deep conditioning sessions. Maybe try just using regular conditioner for a few washes and see how your hair feels after 1 or 2 weeks of that.
Same here. I deep condition sporadically. I mostly use rinse out conditioners. I do rotate moisturizing and strengthening wash days.
Wear mini twist water wash and take it out at the end of the week and start over
I’m a wash and go girl but I do love mini twists. Although, not my style of choice currently.
Water is our hair’s best friend. Remember there’s a difference between hydration and moisture. Hydration comes from water which helps our hair retain moisture and moisture comes from the products used, i.e, oils, conditioners, creams, mousses… y’all get the point😊
Hi beautiful the reason why u can't get the style u want is because ur hair is growing and getting so thick that is a good thing
This is an older video, but you aren't using K-18 correctly. You pump it into your hands emulsify till it looks like a paste and then run it through your hair. You are using too much of it! Your hair looks beautiful as usual! Your curl pattern is so pretty!!😊
I’m aware now, but thanks for letting me know❣️
As someone with the same damn curl pattern, I feel that you're shampooing and detangling your curls too much. Stripping down and breaking up curls just has the tendency to make them harder to clump up in the future. The Anthony Dickie method worked for me despite it being a lot of work, it keeps the same curls in place and the most you'll do is finger detangle and cowash. When you hear the phrase "moisture trained" and "curl trained" that's what they mean.
Hair twin! You know, you’re right. Since I’ve been trying these mousses, I’ve been over shampooing my hair and it’s starting to catch up with me so I’ve pivoted and I just started cowashing last week. I have a video coming about it in a few days but it’s been a game changer for moisture retention.
@@BrittanyMia Cowashes are incredible, I used to be so against them because the thought of not shampooing my scalp is just unsettling, but in regards to my hair it's a gamechanger.
I personally find that the way our ish is set up the trick to saving time is keeping the hair moist and curly than trying to find quick routines. Our shit is just too thick and curly to get these thin products to work fast imo lol
@@Sloppyjoey1 agreed. This mousse only series has been fun, but i’m at the point of adding in a botanical gel or sum 😭
😮 You go in the SAUNA? 🤯
When I can!
Also don’t like the way the Camillia rose mousse smells, it doesn’t stink. But, it just doesn’t smell pleasant to me.
Somebody said it smells funky sweet and that stayed with me 😩😂
Band it
I did 🙃
