Washing Natural Hair | The Twisty Wash Method
Step 1 - Wet Hair.
Step 2 - Lather hair with shampoo(preferably organic, sulfate free..etc).
Step 3- Massage hair and scalp.
Step 4- Rinse out shampoo.
Step 5- Repeat steps 1-4.
Step 6- Apply your favorite conditioner. If you would like to do a deep conditioning treatment: add product, put on a shower cap, and let sit for 15 minutes-1 hour, or as directed on product instructions.
Step 7- Gently detangle by separating hair into small sections, brush to detangle, twist the hair, and then put a rubber band at the ends. You can use your hands to detangle, but I prefer to use the Revlon True Red Brush, or a Denman brush. The purpose for the rubber bands are to prevent the hair from unraveling in Step 9.
Step 8. Repeat step 7 until all your hair is twisted.
STEP 9: **THE TWISTY WASH METHOD SECRET**- Thoroughly rinse out conditioner while your hair remains twisted. Tip: To be sure all product is removed from hair, wet and squeeze.
Step 10: Remove excess water by squeezing or using a t-shirt/towel. Then style. I love to air dry my hair, but you can apply heat. Your choice. And you're done!
Your hair will be soft, and easy to manage, with little to no shedding. I also did a video if you would like to see exactly how I do it on my hair. Check it out.

DeleteWhen do you take out the rubber bands? Immediately after rinsing?
ReplyDeleteHey Queen! If you want your hair to air dry faster, I would definitely recommend removing the rubber bands, after rinsing out the conditioner. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.)
