To help stretching WnGs, you can try using a leave in or moisturizer that is not water-based. Aubrey Organics conditioners come to mind.
Great to hear about your graduation! Hope you find a nice plce to live in NY.

Do you mean using aubrey organics as a leave in? Or do they sell leave ins? Also I have not tried bantu knots since my transition, I don't know if I would like it on short hair. I might try it and let you guys know how it went

I would suggest braid-outs as a stretched out style. It will stretch your hair a little more than twists. Also if you do twists try them on damp or dry hair it won't shrink up as much.

Hello all!
So, for the last couple days, I have been getting near perfect wash and goes. I waited four days to announce this, because I wanted to be absoulutely sure. I come out of the shower and my curls are super defined with minimal frizz (except for that one section of my hair that's genetically pre-determined to look like a squirrel's tail.)
What have I been doing differently? Well, I'm staying with family in new jersey until I find my place in the city (anyone with leads....pm me) and I really think the shower head makes a huge difference. It's very different to the one in my old dorm, its a bit gentler.
Also I have been using less conditioner in the shower. ( by the way guys, tresseme naturals is definitely one of my staples.) I have not been detangling and my manipulation in the shower is very, very minimal.
Same for when I finish showering. I shake my head a couple times (not too much, even this can cause frizz) and spraythen I spray jane carter's leave in and seal with her nourish and shine hair cream.
I've had four successful wash and goes using this method so I had to share. I will post pictures maybe tomorrow after i wash.
Thanks for reading!

im glad u did more test runs to make sure u had the results of ur wash n gos more founded. thats why i like to test a product on my hair consistently for a good 3-4 times, so i guess a matter of a whole month so i can give a more accurate review on whats working for me!
