I woke up this morning feeling like playing with my makeup. But what's a cute face without cute hair. So, I decided to do a little wash n go style with a side part.
For my wash n go, I used water, ecostyler gel argan oil and cantu shea butter leave in conditioner.
After co-washing my hair, I massaged about a quarter size of leave-in conditioner into my hair. Using too much can cause hair to flake when your teeny weeny afro dries.
Once the leave-in conditioner was massaged into my hair well, I added about forefinger scoop full of ecostyler. I apply it like I would lotion by sharing the scoop on both hands then distributing it into my hair. Again, I want to use just enough to make my curls pop. My hair is fine and wavy in the top, so oversaturating it with gel will weigh it down too much, resulting in flat hair in the crown area.
Next, I took a rattail comb and parted in slightly. I wear my parts on the left. I applied just a smidge of ecostyler to my edges to smooth them down. I also added it to each side of the part so that it would stand out more when my hair dried.
My hair is very short. It may be about a half-inch-long.Since it's so short it only took me about 15 minutes start to finish. It took a couple of hours to dry, but if I wanted I could have dried it under the hair dryer. I've had my fill of sitting under hairdryers so air-drying is fine with me. :)
I like the side part in my teeny weeny afro, because it changes my look up a bit. Little changes can go a long way.
How do you rock your twa hairstyle? Do you have a favorite wash n go style?
