Wait so I didn't know a lot of people don't really like a crunch after mousse or gel. I like it after setting my style because it keeps the definition longer and gets softer throughout the week! Anyone else likes a crunch?
I get the best result when I refresh with a second layer of mousse on dry hair. It sounds crazy, but not spraying on water beforehand when refreshing gives me really good definition. There will be crunch, but it softens throughout the week. I’ve done this with both crazy girl and mousse def.
Same here! If I see any miscreant pieces I’ll put a little mousse straight on it to refresh. On wash day I actually apply the mousse to damp hair, then if I’m going for a fuller fluffier look I’ll leave more water in my hair.
Seriously thanks to you I have found my wash and go products and routine! I’m falling in love with my curls all over again, wash and go is my signature hairstyle now and my hair is loving it!
Hi! Your hair is very similar to mine and I had the exact same experience as you using this product. It was weird, my hair felt moisturized and dry at the same time. I also noticed some frizziness on the top and sides. So, I decided to pair the bee girl mousse with the bee girl gel and got way better results. Highly encourage that. Mouse first, then gel. Cheers!
I appreciate you showing how you manipulate your hair immediately after removing the bonnet. My hair looked just like yours and I would think I couldn’t shape,it and jut put it In a puff. Your hair looks pretty and shiny.
I’ve made the mistake of writing off products before really giving them the benefit of the doubt. User error can be big thing for me when it comes to new products. I appreciate it!
I would just like to gently remind everyone with curls when using your brushes and combs start from the tip or ends of your hair not the roots or towards the roots even if you are detangled this can help avoid us ripping at our hair❤ I love the mousse def I can’t wait to try this one too your hair came out beautiful ❤❤❤
I found the Doux mousses leave my hair feeling like straw is the best I can describe it. That’s the ‘dry’ feeling I get. I have course med/high density hair. My thinking is these two mousses work best with silkier strands. I notice that’s what the owner demos them on…
I tried the Doux mousse original and the Bee girl curl custard, I have high density high porosity hair and both of this products messed my hair up so badly! My hair was like hay not even straw!!! I won’t try anymore products. My hair is a loser texture of 3c and 4A mixtures which is very spiraled curls.
I noticed that Mousse Def is super drying for my hair.... the challege of the right combo is something else. I am probably going to do a weekly experiment like you have done, and doing the ulta trips, to figure it out.
I like when you include the wash & condish... I don't know when watching ppl wash their hair became ao calming and fascinating. 😂😂😂 Love your vids... have learned so much. I cut off my hair in February after trying to transition out of heat damage for 6 months... been natural since 2010 😢. Your vids have me buying and trying all the things. 😂 but I've learned soooo much about my hair just from watching and doing my own experimenting. Thanks for the effort you give to this!
I ❤ mousse Wash and Go’s. A good long-holding mousse will last as long, as if not longer than a gel. When I’m strapped for time, I’ll do a mousse-only WnG. But I also like to pair a good gel with a mouse for more longevity (up to two weeks)
Wow thanks, I’ll definitely try that. It made my flat twists amazing for the first time but my hair was dry 😢 if I can just get moisture and curl I’ll be good to go 😅
I'm a banding method girl, pineapples have never worked for me. I band my hair every night of my W&G. Your hair is similar to mine. How many sections did you use with the scrunches? To get the round voluminous shape at your length, make a section in the crown area and pull the hair up towards your face, wrap the scrunchie leaving the curly ends free. It will lift the roots in the center of your head and give you that stretch/volume. When your hair is longer banding in 4 sections will be enough to give the volume for that look.
Your hair is just like mine, love it. Shape and everything. I cannot do pineapples anymore- it doesn’t ever do what I want it to do. I live in silk scrunchies banding (one for my bangs and 5-6 sections in the back). In the morning, my curls are down, rather than having to shape it back down and it’s stretched. I have high density fine hair though so I have to force my hair to be big like yours with a pick 🥹 I think the low porosity and fine strands are why it works for me without leave in. Even spray in. Makes my hair poofy/no definition.
This is by far my favorite wash and go on you!! I have this mousse and now I’m inspired to try it by itself! Your results were soooo beautiful and I love the volume you got as the days went by! Day 2 and 3 hair was a whole vibe!!!❤ would love to see the k-18 under the mousses you try too! 💕
Oooo please try adding the k18 with this series. There's a Sephora sale this week for it and I've been going back and forth on whether I should splurge or not haha
Im in love with this mousse as well as the other one from the doux. When your stylist mentioned mousse and gel I started using these with gel on top and its sooo amazing. I def agree with you on the detangling though
In my experience I get better results when I use this foam and foams in general on damp towel dried hair starting at the front and then moving towards the back and using a tool to distribute the product. Because of my course surface texture I do need to apply enough to both smooth and clump my natural hair.
Awesome results omg, I want to try their mousses so bad. If you want to try another product, I think you should try the aloe and coconut water gel by African pride… ( optional: I used the shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie as a leave in. With the gel by itself there’s more definition and hold) my wash n go lasted me 9 days with a refresh on day 7… I’ve stretched my hair with heat 3 times in the week and banded 4 of those nights… wash n go is fluffy and still defined.😌 as my hair gets longer I like the extra definition for 3 days but then I like to stretch and fluffffff!!!
The way I've been getting mousse to mousse since your last video!!!! I'm putting down UFD first, letting it sit under a cap while cleaning up hurricane conditioner and then go in with the mousse as a topper. First set dries, few more pumps of mousse (because it works) and back under the dryer. I find bonnets allow to much movement for mousse so I go buff which allows less shimmy ing and shaking.
Love this video! I have fine, very soft textured curly hair. For volume, no matter how I part my hair, I style all my hair towards the back. This gives me the volume I need on top and no mushroom/pill head, 😆 and I find my hair is more flowy. 😊 I’m excited to see all the mousse segments!
Love your videos. I'm doing wash n go styles weekly bc I like how easy it is and the different products to try. Keep up the great work. I like your honesty and simplicity.
Grateful for this video. Thank you. Have been watching videos of this product for weeks looking for someone with a similar hair type so I could get a better idea. I did buy the product today.
@@BrittanyMia Yes, actually I have tried it. I love it. The first time my hair lasted 7 days. I partially dried my roots with the diffuser because my hair takes forever to dry. It look better and better each day. The second time I used it on clean dry hair after having washed and condition my hair in the morning pretty much pulled it back into a bun. However, I had to go somewhere so I said well I'll just see what happens if I soak it down with some of the mousse. That time it actually looked pretty cute as well it lasted for about 4 days. It was a softer hold and there were parts that I didn't get really well due to rushing so those parts were more poofy in the roots. During the same week that I had initially used the product the CVS in my area was having 25% off so I went around to the different ones and grab a couple of bottles so I wouldn't run out within the next few weeks. My hair is so thick and it's past my shoulders that it takes a lot of product almost 3/4 of the bottle to do it once. Again, your video is what sold me and made me finally go ahead and give it a try. Big thanks 🙌🏾🎉♥️💯
The bee girl gel is a strong hold too! But the mousse paired with the gels ( most def w/ big poppa or crazy sexy curl w/bee girl gel) creates a softer hold and secures the integrity of the curls ( less frizz) . I would also use oil last even after the stretching process (heat+oil = fry?) and I do use the mielle pomegranate leave in !
That mousse has a leave in conditioner in the formula. The crunch is a good thing letting it break down on its own, gives you more days out of the style! Also, may I ask why you think it's necessary to use 2 conditioners?
I rarely comment but I always watch your videos. I love all of your wash and go's and how you give thorough critiques to how you do your hair but also how the product works for you. It's been so nice seeing you use different products and seeing your hair grow so much. I would love to see the KN-18 underneath the mousses you use to see how it works. Watching your videos make me want to try more products but also be more comfortable with wearing my hair in a wash n go without giving up on this style.
Thank you for commenting and sharing this with me. I greatly appreciate it. And absolutely, I’ll give that a try. I hope you do try more products and methods. For me, that’s what makes this style so fun. 💕
Not tylenol pill or Lego hair, I'm so tickled. Ok, I have this mousse and I need to decide what leave in I am going to pair with it because I know my hair will be so dry if that is all I use. Thanks for the info and sharing your use of the product.
Hi! I have been having great success using the doux mousses and the denman brush technique on each section. once completely dry, i break the cast and style!
Oh this came out nice! I haven't tried their Bee Girl yet. It's so weird how products work on other people. I don't find my hair feeling dry after using the doux mousse or big poppa gel.
I love the look of this WnG!💜 Try the K18 I don't see a problem with that. Surprisingly I style my hair with mousse the same as with gel. I do it in the shower with soaking wet hair. Shingling takes too long so I avoid it at all costs, lol. Although shingling may give a more salon-finished look, my hair is too long for me to be bothered with it. 🤷♀ My goal is to spend less time styling my hair not more.😆
See, I may have to try it in the shower because I would love to save time and keep it simple. However, the texture or mouse makes me feel like I have to do more separating and shingling. How long do your mousse only wash and go's last?
@@BrittanyMia Mousse Def usually gives me about three days. I think it depends on the level of hold of the mousse, and the essential elements of the hair. I do my hair two or three times a week so I don't need a lot of days, but those who want more days will most likely need a gel that's like UFD under the mousse. Based on reviews that I've seen ICD has a strong hold, but I have not tried it yet.
I think the volume you are looking for may be in the cut so I am a CIK girl I do not know if this cutting technique gives you more volume v.s the Rezo technique. These are things you may want to explore with your stylist.
I love the results of a mousse only, but I just can't get it to last more than two days, and that's if I don't go to the gym, so if you can figure out how to make it last, I"ll be looking out for that video!
@@sherwood9917 sorry, I'm just seeing your question. I pineapple but don't use a bonnet, instead I sleep on satin pillowcases and my husband also. I sweat in my scalp so the bonnet is out. My style lasts about 5-7 days as I like the volume
I love the doux,my hair is like hers and i do not do all those steps if u use their shampoo and condition.....just brush through the foam mousse no need to shingle.....if u want it to last a week,use the gel prior to the mousse. Takes me about 45min tops
your hair is so pretty! Im trying my best not to relax my hair but it gets on my nerves lol. I have a similar texture to yours. How on earth do you stop the tangles??? My coils are a bit smaller and tigher i think. When i was my hair it is constantly getting tangles and major tangles. It is driving me crazy. I was so close to putting a relaxer in it. I did not but i ended up blow drying it and flat ironing it.
I get trims regularly. I just recently got a haircut/trim. I wanted to push another few months but the tangles and the knots at the end of my hair. We’re telling me to get the trim NOW lol. Also I keep my hair detangled by doing it often. Twice a week at least, it’s getting detangled. For health reasons, please don’t go back to relaxers 💕 even if you become a straight natural. Nothing wrong with that.
I style like you. The only difference I do is allow my hair to be soaking dripping water prior to starting. Not damp but soaking wet. I learned that from going to a natural hair salon in Atlanta for a style. It make a difference in definition.
I typically do it on dripping wet hair as well. The only reason I didn’t do it on soaking wet hair like I usually do is because mousse has a lot of water in it, and I did not want to dilute the mousse by adding too much water.
Tried Innersense foam and the gel - thinking I needed more hold - my primer was carols daughter gel. I think I should try the foam alone and it looks like a win ! You were right about the spray leave in
I’m currently trying to find a spray leaving that has heat protectant in it as well. Hopefully, I find one soon. Thank you for sharing your experience!
It would be cool to see you try it with k18! That mask is my holy grail although my hair will feel dry if i dont use a leave in with it. To speed up my wash i just use a lightweight conditioner thats safe to leave on the hair and dont rinse out before applying mousse. This works well for me but i also dont have to use nearly as much product as you. Also i love watching the video from shampoo to style its super relaxing!
Hey ! I try The doux mousses and I prefer Bee girl one. It’s more moiturizing and have less hold. You can use mousse def with irish moss cream for nature little secret without any flakes.
@@jessicab.5974 Ohhh okay! I actually have both of those gels and the bee girl mousse and now I want to try both of these combos!! Thank you so much!!! 💗💗
Sis i had the opposite problem! By day 3 my hair was too moist and when i scratched my scalp my hair felt mushy🤮. I towel dry my hair tho because if i apply it on wet hair i get no slip and i feel like im ripping my hair apart during application.
Your hair!!! So beautiful. I’m getting my curly cut next week. I’m excited nervous. And your hair shape is exactly what I need! I write everything down on my note because I’m very shy when a hairstylist is doing my hair. This time I can’t let no one mess up again cause curly cut is like $275-300🤦🏾♀️ is yours a round cut Fro?
Hey! I like the results. It is different than your other WNGs, but like you said it's a vibe. I would like to see how this works with the K18. I've never tried crazy curl. I tried the doux and I REALLY tried to be coachable and follow instructions too lol😂 Yea didn't happen. I always felt like it needed something. Fav combo was the mouse, tiny tiny bit of jojoba, and quidad climate control. Try the paul mitchell foaming pomade. I think you'll like it, bc it gets foamy like a mousse but has little heavier consistency. It give great def , volume, hold, and helps with frizz. Thanks again looking forward to the next one💜
In your previous videos, you said you didn't like strong smells. Did you find the Bee Girl scent to be mild? I have been using the Mousse Def product but find it drying. I tried their leave-in, Fresh to Def, but the scent was too perfumy and overpowering. However, my hair felt very moisturized.
Your wng came out really cute 💕but I get what you mean with mousses. My hair type works better with a cream/leave in and gel combo. I like mousses for taming fly aways or refreshing frizzies but you’re inspiring me to give this mouses a try for a wng 😮 and have you tried the curl smith multitasking conditioner? I’ve been eyeing it
Your results are gorgeous and I'm really needing to try this Bee Girl mousse, I already use Mousse Def.. I know it says apply to damp hair, but I've not been able to get that to work for me.. The only way I've been able to make a mousse work has been to follow my stylists techniques to the "T".. With that, I detangle during my 2nd/moisture shampoo using a tangle teaser then put mousse in my hair while still in the shower right after rinsing out conditioner in 4 large sections, probably 2-3 pumps per large section, that I then clip up and cover with a suower cap keeping soaking wet.. Using the water as a kind of elongation tool for my hair during the process of adding mousse.. I then finish my shower, moisturize my face and body, then take off my shower cap.. I then one section at a time subsection those large 4 sections.. Adding 1 to 2 pumps to each subsection.. My hair is medium density, so I only have to subsection 3-4 times in comparison to you high density folks.. It doesn't take me much time, dries fast, and gives 3-4th day hair on day 1.. But is a bit drying and doesn't last long.. All and all, I stick to my double gel routine.. Because I just prefer my 5-7day sets.. 😅
I personally looove mousse, especially the doux mousses, and use them by themselves on wet-ish to damp hair outside of the shower in sections small enough to coat my super thick hair. I then finger coil my whole head bc that's my go to wash and go method (I know, I know, super time consuming, BUT it goes way more quickly if I use good products, like the doux or pattern which i know you also love).
@@BrittanyMia Aww thanks girl! I really love your videos; your wash and go series in particular is top-tier natural hair content, and as someone with a similar pattern, it's super helpful to see how you style your hair. I also super relate to the struggle to find staple products to rely on; I've made massive progress with this with my own natural hair regimen, but it is a constant struggle.
By the way, I really wanna try the Kinky Curly Curling Custard, and wanted some advice about how to use it since I know it's one of your faves. Would you reccomend using it with a cream/leave in underneath, or on its own? Keep in mind my hair is very similar to yours, just high porosity and damaged, and I don't style in the shower since i prefer more hold/crunch.
Any plans to try Innersense I create Definition? I would love to see your pairings with that one. Your hair came out great and yes, try it with a leave in.
I think your hair looks beautiful. but i, too, noticed than when i use both foam products, my hair is dryyyyyyyyy. like the way it makes my hair look, appreciate the no flakage but i wish it was more moisturzing. good to know, it's not just me
Hi , Brittany loved the video and curls. How do you prevent your camera from fogging up in the shower? I just purchased my 1st camera, and I would love to make videos in the show when doing my hair.
Hey 👋 Oooo exciting! I keep my bathroom door open when recording and the air on to keep the bathroom from getting foggy. I also keep my camera about 6 feet away from the shower so it isn't close to the water and steam.
Because applying mousse is different than the botanical gels. It’s said to work best on damp hair, not sopping wet. Although I am getting my hair wet, I don’t add as much water as I would with a gel.
Just seeing this video and did not know they had a new version of this mousse. I loved using it because it made my hair very soft BUT I stopped using it because my hair had no movement once it was dry and that wasn't because it was hard or crunchy. I also didn't like that it would separate my hair into single strands instead of clumping my curls. But because I'm curious I will probably try this again...
How long have you been washing your hair every 3-4 days? I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now and noticed your hair looks longer now too! I restarted my hair journey with a big chop in January and usually wash every 7 days while I used to shampoo it every 14 days when it was longer. I’m scared of drying out my hair if I was more often than that though, but your hair seems to be flourishing though!
I've been mostly consistent with twice a week since the new year, but I've had a few weeks go by here i'll only shampoo once. Not intentionally, but sometimes it happens. I was also afraid of drying out my hair, so I feel you! But I deep condition each time I shampoo and that helps. I've tried just co-washing but it makes my scalp itchy, so I've found that shampooing 2x per week works well for me now.
I found that whenever I put mousse on it absorbs quickly like it doesn’t get white or nothing. Is that bc I don’t put enough on of the mousse. I’ll put mousse on and it absorbs so fast like it’ll look like no mousse was on it. It never suds up like yours is.
For me, i have different textures of hair. My back is straight, my front does not hold curl well, and the top of my head is the thickest and needs a perm 😂 i didn’t know you could have different textures unril my hair dresser tild me. That may be why the top of your head is frizzy. But I'll give the doux a try. Thanks.
Hey 👋🏾 I do one hairstyle lol and it’s a wash and go. I’d say start with whatever hairstyle interest you most and that you like to wear if you don’t like switching it up and doing a lot of styles. Don’t spend a lot of money on equipment until you have tried your best with what you have, use natural lighting if you can (it’s the best), and be yourself. I hope that helps and I hope to see you posting your own hair videos soon. 🤗
I love a mousse only wng and prefer them to gel wng's. Mo Knows Hair has a trick for making mousse only wng last. I did not have any luck with The Doux Mousse Def, so scared to try the Be Curl mousse.
Wait so I didn't know a lot of people don't really like a crunch after mousse or gel. I like it after setting my style because it keeps the definition longer and gets softer throughout the week!
Anyone else likes a crunch?
your not alone it helps me know my hair is defined and has hold
I like it 👌🏽
@@adamthemulch exactly this!

I'm 99% sure Mos Def mousse is THE best mousse in the world! The shine! The hold (when used properly)!! 😊
@@Erudite48085 agreed! Actually the full line up, is the Doux, design essentials, Nairobi, and miche beauty
Thank you for this. I was wondering if your hair needs to be wet again.
Seriously thanks to you I have found my wash and go products and routine! I’m falling in love with my curls all over again, wash and go is my signature hairstyle now and my hair is loving it!

Great idea, thanks!

It look better and better each day. The second time I used it on clean dry hair after having washed and condition my hair in the morning pretty much pulled it back into a bun. However, I had to go somewhere so I said well I'll just see what happens if I soak it down with some of the mousse. That time it actually looked pretty cute as well it lasted for about 4 days. It was a softer hold and there were parts that I didn't get really well due to rushing so those parts were more poofy in the roots. During the same week that I had initially used the product the CVS in my area was having 25% off so I went around to the different ones and grab a couple of bottles so I wouldn't run out within the next few weeks. My hair is so thick and it's past my shoulders that it takes a lot of product almost 3/4 of the bottle to do it once. Again, your video is what sold me and made me finally go ahead and give it a try. Big thanks 🙌🏾🎉♥️💯
The bee girl gel is a strong hold too! But the mousse paired with the gels ( most def w/ big poppa or crazy sexy curl w/bee girl gel) creates a softer hold and secures the integrity of the curls ( less frizz) . I would also use oil last even after the stretching process (heat+oil = fry?) and I do use the mielle pomegranate leave in !
I love this look!🌺
Thank you
love your video def need to try this mousse!
That mousse has a leave in conditioner in the formula. The crunch is a good thing letting it break down on its own, gives you more days out of the style! Also, may I ask why you think it's necessary to use 2 conditioners?
Hey Brittany the Doux Honey line conditioner can be used 3 ways. I use it as a leave in before using any of her stylers, just don’t use a lot.
I rarely comment but I always watch your videos. I love all of your wash and go's and how you give thorough critiques to how you do your hair but also how the product works for you. It's been so nice seeing you use different products and seeing your hair grow so much. I would love to see the KN-18 underneath the mousses you use to see how it works. Watching your videos make me want to try more products but also be more comfortable with wearing my hair in a wash n go without giving up on this style.
Thank you for commenting and sharing this with me. I greatly appreciate it. And absolutely, I’ll give that a try. I hope you do try more products and methods. For me, that’s what makes this style so fun. 💕
i love everything the doux , ❤beautiful hair
Thanks!
You have one of the prettiest kitchens I’ve ever seen
Thanks 🤗
Not tylenol pill or Lego hair, I'm so tickled. Ok, I have this mousse and I need to decide what leave in I am going to pair with it because I know my hair will be so dry if that is all I use. Thanks for the info and sharing your use of the product.
I use the UFD gel before the Def mousse and it's amazing!
Hi! I have been having great success using the doux mousses and the denman brush technique on each section. once completely dry, i break the cast and style!
Oh this came out nice! I haven't tried their Bee Girl yet. It's so weird how products work on other people. I don't find my hair feeling dry after using the doux mousse or big poppa gel.
Beautiful thick hair.
I love how it turned out and how it looks😍❤
Thank you 😊
I love the look of this WnG!💜 Try the K18 I don't see a problem with that. Surprisingly I style my hair with mousse the same as with gel. I do it in the shower with soaking wet hair. Shingling takes too long so I avoid it at all costs, lol. Although shingling may give a more salon-finished look, my hair is too long for me to be bothered with it. 🤷♀ My goal is to spend less time styling my hair not more.😆
See, I may have to try it in the shower because I would love to save time and keep it simple. However, the texture or mouse makes me feel like I have to do more separating and shingling. How long do your mousse only wash and go's last?
@@BrittanyMia Mousse Def usually gives me about three days. I think it depends on the level of hold of the mousse, and the essential elements of the hair. I do my hair two or three times a week so I don't need a lot of days, but those who want more days will most likely need a gel that's like UFD under the mousse. Based on reviews that I've seen ICD has a strong hold, but I have not tried it yet.
I think the volume you are looking for may be in the cut so I am a CIK girl I do not know if this cutting technique gives you more volume v.s the Rezo technique. These are things you may want to explore with your stylist.
I think so too. Thanks for the suggestion!
And she’s back again with another great wash and go!😍 really love your transparency always
I love the results of a mousse only, but I just can't get it to last more than two days, and that's if I don't go to the gym, so if you can figure out how to make it last, I"ll be looking out for that video!
Try the doux texture tamer! It works wonders
I absolutely love Mousse def! I only do twist outs, and it's the only styler I use
How do you preserve the style at night? Thanks.
Do you use a leave in with it for your twist outs?
@@lameshahale2990 yes, along with a little JBCO, then I added the styling mousse
@@glendajohnson7124 Thank you 🙏🏾
@@sherwood9917 sorry, I'm just seeing your question. I pineapple but don't use a bonnet, instead I sleep on satin pillowcases and my husband also. I sweat in my scalp so the bonnet is out. My style lasts about 5-7 days as I like the volume
I love the doux,my hair is like hers and i do not do all those steps if u use their shampoo and condition.....just brush through the foam mousse no need to shingle.....if u want it to last a week,use the gel prior to the mousse. Takes me about 45min tops
your hair is so pretty! Im trying my best not to relax my hair but it gets on my nerves lol. I have a similar texture to yours. How on earth do you stop the tangles??? My coils are a bit smaller and tigher i think. When i was my hair it is constantly getting tangles and major tangles. It is driving me crazy. I was so close to putting a relaxer in it. I did not but i ended up blow drying it and flat ironing it.
I get trims regularly. I just recently got a haircut/trim. I wanted to push another few months but the tangles and the knots at the end of my hair. We’re telling me to get the trim NOW lol.
Also I keep my hair detangled by doing it often. Twice a week at least, it’s getting detangled.
For health reasons, please don’t go back to relaxers 💕 even if you become a straight natural. Nothing wrong with that.
I style like you. The only difference I do is allow my hair to be soaking dripping water prior to starting. Not damp but soaking wet. I learned that from going to a natural hair salon in Atlanta for a style. It make a difference in definition.
I typically do it on dripping wet hair as well. The only reason I didn’t do it on soaking wet hair like I usually do is because mousse has a lot of water in it, and I did not want to dilute the mousse by adding too much water.
Tried Innersense foam and the gel - thinking I needed more hold - my primer was carols daughter gel. I think I should try the foam alone and it looks like a win ! You were right about the spray leave in
I’m currently trying to find a spray leaving that has heat protectant in it as well. Hopefully, I find one soon. Thank you for sharing your experience!
It would be cool to see you try it with k18! That mask is my holy grail although my hair will feel dry if i dont use a leave in with it. To speed up my wash i just use a lightweight conditioner thats safe to leave on the hair and dont rinse out before applying mousse. This works well for me but i also dont have to use nearly as much product as you.
Also i love watching the video from shampoo to style its super relaxing!
Trying the K18 today! Thanks for sharing how you speed up your wash.
Hey ! I try The doux mousses and I prefer Bee girl one. It’s more moiturizing and have less hold.
You can use mousse def with irish moss cream for nature little secret without any flakes.
Ohhh thanks for sharing this tip! Do you use a leave in under the bee girl mousse too?
@@Prittyinpink143 No Leave-in under Bee girl mousse. I used it alone or as a topper with UFD or jello shot for fluffier look.
@@jessicab.5974 Ohhh okay! I actually have both of those gels and the bee girl mousse and now I want to try both of these combos!! Thank you so much!!! 💗💗
@@Prittyinpink143 I hope you like the result. 😉
@@jessicab.5974 Thank you!! I’ll come back and let you know! I’m so exited for this experiment over the next few weeks lol
More volume = shorter length on crown of head plus deep condition also leave in for more moisture my answer
Sis i had the opposite problem! By day 3 my hair was too moist and when i scratched my scalp my hair felt mushy🤮. I towel dry my hair tho because if i apply it on wet hair i get no slip and i feel like im ripping my hair apart during application.
Your hair!!! So beautiful. I’m getting my curly cut next week. I’m excited nervous. And your hair shape is exactly what I need! I write everything down on my note because I’m very shy when a hairstylist is doing my hair. This time I can’t let no one mess up again cause curly cut is like $275-300🤦🏾♀️ is yours a round cut Fro?
I love this series! Thank you!😊
❤️
Hey! I like the results. It is different than your other WNGs, but like you said it's a vibe. I would like to see how this works with the K18. I've never tried crazy curl. I tried the doux and I REALLY tried to be coachable and follow instructions too lol😂 Yea didn't happen. I always felt like it needed something. Fav combo was the mouse, tiny tiny bit of jojoba, and quidad climate control. Try the paul mitchell foaming pomade. I think you'll like it, bc it gets foamy like a mousse but has little heavier consistency. It give great def , volume, hold, and helps with frizz. Thanks again looking forward to the next one💜
In your previous videos, you said you didn't like strong smells. Did you find the Bee Girl scent to be mild? I have been using the Mousse Def product but find it drying. I tried their leave-in, Fresh to Def, but the scent was too perfumy and overpowering. However, my hair felt very moisturized.
I use this mousse with uncle funky as a base so I don’t have to use so much of the mousse
Tfs!
Your hair is shinny and I really like this wash n go
🫶🏾
Your wng came out really cute 💕but I get what you mean with mousses. My hair type works better with a cream/leave in and gel combo. I like mousses for taming fly aways or refreshing frizzies but you’re inspiring me to give this mouses a try for a wng 😮 and have you tried the curl smith multitasking conditioner? I’ve been eyeing it
❤yes add the leave-in!
Noted!
Your results are gorgeous and I'm really needing to try this Bee Girl mousse, I already use Mousse Def.. I know it says apply to damp hair, but I've not been able to get that to work for me.. The only way I've been able to make a mousse work has been to follow my stylists techniques to the "T".. With that, I detangle during my 2nd/moisture shampoo using a tangle teaser then put mousse in my hair while still in the shower right after rinsing out conditioner in 4 large sections, probably 2-3 pumps per large section, that I then clip up and cover with a suower cap keeping soaking wet.. Using the water as a kind of elongation tool for my hair during the process of adding mousse.. I then finish my shower, moisturize my face and body, then take off my shower cap.. I then one section at a time subsection those large 4 sections.. Adding 1 to 2 pumps to each subsection.. My hair is medium density, so I only have to subsection 3-4 times in comparison to you high density folks.. It doesn't take me much time, dries fast, and gives 3-4th day hair on day 1.. But is a bit drying and doesn't last long.. All and all, I stick to my double gel routine.. Because I just prefer my 5-7day sets.. 😅
Let’s talk about how you got the salon size of k18 please and thanks.
👀😂 My salon centric plug.
@@BrittanyMia say less
I personally looove mousse, especially the doux mousses, and use them by themselves on wet-ish to damp hair outside of the shower in sections small enough to coat my super thick hair. I then finger coil my whole head bc that's my go to wash and go method (I know, I know, super time consuming, BUT it goes way more quickly if I use good products, like the doux or pattern which i know you also love).
Thanks for sharing your routine. It may be time consuming, but if it works for you and you like it that’s all that matters.
@@BrittanyMia Aww thanks girl! I really love your videos; your wash and go series in particular is top-tier natural hair content, and as someone with a similar pattern, it's super helpful to see how you style your hair. I also super relate to the struggle to find staple products to rely on; I've made massive progress with this with my own natural hair regimen, but it is a constant struggle.
By the way, I really wanna try the Kinky Curly Curling Custard, and wanted some advice about how to use it since I know it's one of your faves. Would you reccomend using it with a cream/leave in underneath, or on its own? Keep in mind my hair is very similar to yours, just high porosity and damaged, and I don't style in the shower since i prefer more hold/crunch.
Do you use it with the kinky curly custard
Any plans to try Innersense I create Definition? I would love to see your pairings with that one. Your hair came out great and yes, try it with a leave in.
I do plan on trying it eventually, but I don’t have it yet so we shall see.
I think your hair looks beautiful. but i, too, noticed than when i use both foam products, my hair is dryyyyyyyyy. like the way it makes my hair look, appreciate the no flakage but i wish it was more moisturzing. good to know, it's not just me
Maybe you can trim the top of your hair because it seems too flat. I use mousse def and oil & love it!!! Thank you for sharing
Try using the FEKKAI Clean Stylers Volume Lock Hairspray
Ohh yess I would love to see her try this spray! I have been thinking of trying this myself lol
beautiful set Bri
Thank you.
Thanks for the video
I use it on dry detangled hair
Idk if this is against the wash and go rules but- I think a hair pick will help you achieve the volume you’re going for after the blow dryer stretch.
There are no rules, I just choose not to use one because I think they can cause breakage.
Your hair came out so nicely 😍. How many months/yrs big chop are you now boo?
Thanks you 🥰 Its been 2 years and 4 months since I big chopped.
Using a hair pic at your roots on the crown of your head can help with more volume 😊
I appreciate the tip, but the breakage that a hair pic can cause is why I avoid them.
Hi , Brittany loved the video and curls. How do you prevent your camera from fogging up in the shower? I just purchased my 1st camera, and I would love to make videos in the show when doing my hair.
Hey 👋 Oooo exciting! I keep my bathroom door open when recording and the air on to keep the bathroom from getting foggy. I also keep my camera about 6 feet away from the shower so it isn't close to the water and steam.
Why didn't you apply in the shower on soaking wet hair?
Because applying mousse is different than the botanical gels. It’s said to work best on damp hair, not sopping wet. Although I am getting my hair wet, I don’t add as much water as I would with a gel.
K18 isn’t conditioning. Like you need a really spray leave in. Also when you use k18 make sure you emulsify it. Don’t don’t over do it with k18
Thanks for the info
Try two strand twist
Just seeing this video and did not know they had a new version of this mousse. I loved using it because it made my hair very soft BUT I stopped using it because my hair had no movement once it was dry and that wasn't because it was hard or crunchy. I also didn't like that it would separate my hair into single strands instead of clumping my curls. But because I'm curious I will probably try this again...
If you try it again, come update us!
@@BrittanyMia I will!
How long have you been washing your hair every 3-4 days? I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now and noticed your hair looks longer now too! I restarted my hair journey with a big chop in January and usually wash every 7 days while I used to shampoo it every 14 days when it was longer. I’m scared of drying out my hair if I was more often than that though, but your hair seems to be flourishing though!
I've been mostly consistent with twice a week since the new year, but I've had a few weeks go by here i'll only shampoo once. Not intentionally, but sometimes it happens. I was also afraid of drying out my hair, so I feel you! But I deep condition each time I shampoo and that helps. I've tried just co-washing but it makes my scalp itchy, so I've found that shampooing 2x per week works well for me now.
How many bottles for one styling? Looks like you'll need 2
I stretch roots with a dryer to
shape
All of the Bee Girl products dried my hair OUT! My hair HATES honey!!
I found that whenever I put mousse on it absorbs quickly like it doesn’t get white or nothing. Is that bc I don’t put enough on of the mousse. I’ll put mousse on and it absorbs so fast like it’ll look like no mousse was on it. It never suds up like yours is.
Try uncle funky’s daughter curly magic, then the mousse and your hair will be moist with poppin definition
For me, i have different textures of hair. My back is straight, my front does not hold curl well, and the top of my head is the thickest and needs a perm 😂 i didn’t know you could have different textures unril my hair dresser tild me. That may be why the top of your head is frizzy. But I'll give the doux a try. Thanks.
Oh yeah, it probably is slightly different than the rest of my hair! Tfs.
Hey , can you give any tips on how to become a natural hair influencer? Do you have to learn a lot of natural hairstyles?
Hey 👋🏾 I do one hairstyle lol and it’s a wash and go. I’d say start with whatever hairstyle interest you most and that you like to wear if you don’t like switching it up and doing a lot of styles. Don’t spend a lot of money on equipment until you have tried your best with what you have, use natural lighting if you can (it’s the best), and be yourself. I hope that helps and I hope to see you posting your own hair videos soon. 🤗
@@BrittanyMia I want to master wash and gos thank you for responding 😊
I prefer leave ins too. I think I use less product that way, esp with botanical gels
I agree. The downside is that they can potentially ruin the set and I’ll have a lot less definition, but it’s a give-and-take.
I love a mousse only wng and prefer them to gel wng's. Mo Knows Hair has a trick for making mousse only wng last. I did not have any luck with The Doux Mousse Def, so scared to try the Be Curl mousse.
You probably need shorter layers at the very top of your head for the volume look
I hope Miche Beauty is in your lineup for the mousse
It is 🤗
