Hair Update: I Love This Co-Wash
Friday, August 21st, 2015 04:01 pmOMGGGGG, this afro be nice and smooth and soft! Like, I keep touching my 'fro, messing it up because my glorious 4C hair is just oh-so soft! Hehehehe!
It's happened ever since my mom spoiled me by buying me a co-wash I've always wanted a few weeks ago: Pantene co-wash. A co-wash is basically a way to cleanse your hair once every week between shampoos without the risk of drying out your hair. It's a 1-in-3 cleanser, conditioner and detangler and, though not needed for all of us natural haired gals, can be very, very helpful in maintaining cleanliness and moisture for our hair.
So, for example, with me? I wash my hair with regular shampoo and conditioner (currently using Amla) once every Sunday. And on Wednesday, I use my Pantene co-wash and holy shit, it's oh-so wonderful!
My hair be all nice, soft and shiny and be smelling good because of Pantene. And also note that I love the smell of Pantene, but for a long time, they didn't have any products for black hair. This shit is new.
So I'm loving my co-wash and my nice, soft, shiny hair! *SQUEEE!!!*
Also, please enjoy these comic panels & the commentary/meta below of Danny Rand doing his wife, Misty Knight's hair. White boy-that-should-be-Asian-boy doing gorgeous bantu knots in his wife's hair. It made me tear up when I first saw it. Glorious. Simply glorious.
