I’ve missed the glorious, highly textured results of my wash & go,
but the single strand knots and difficulty achieving anything but dry,
flattened out, tangled ass curls by day 3? Boo. Bye. I ain’t got time
for that!
But really, the look rocks and I plan to pull it out for special occasions and in high humidity conditions. In the meantime, I’ll be twisting it up!

Continuing our restaurant tour via Andrew Zimmern’s Bizarre Food, we went to Oro, a gourmet restaurant in Rio and got the Iron Chef treatment!Everything on the menu was prepared with ingredients from the Amazonian Rainforest and the best thing? There was no ‘ordering’, we ate what the chef felt like preparing! #ImGoingBroke #ImMCHammer
We had a great time traveling, learning and making new friends and plan to do it again soon!
beautiful hair
Gorgeous hair, gorgeous dress and dope swim suit.
I missed the giveaway but I rocked my locks in a high pony in a sun dress. My daughter had braids into a high pony
Thanks for the sweet comments and for your participation ladies! xx

Offandrunning
It was hot, but because my hair was out from the previous day, i had the most awesome twist out for memorial's day….since finding the right products my twistout last for days now!!!!!!!!!
Kinky Kurly wash and go!
for my memorial day festivities i picked my hair out and rocked a huge disrespectful ass fro
Girl, I see nothing wrong with your hair in a wash n go! I think you're anti-real kinky hair (even though you feature everyone but the most favorited seems to be those of the softer variety), it's always got to be this bi-racial textured look. As far as knots, with soft hair, all you have to do is re-wet it along with conditioner and the hair will unravel itself.
Rocked a wash and Go and it was pretty fantaboulous!
Nikki, everything you wore seems to be "gifted". How can I get into that action?
I rocked my transitioning hair in a faux bun using marley braid hair. It matched my wavy kinky hair perfectly.
Hey Nik! I wore my absolute FAVORITE style, a twist out to the cookout I went to yesterday. It was blowing in the wind, and I loved every second! 😉
~caramelcurls
Hey Nik! I wore my hair in a simple twist out to the Memorial Day cookout I went to. It was hot as a mug in TN, and my hair held up great!
Once it gets longer, I look forward to doing more updo's. But until then twist outs and I are tight. 😉
-caramelcurls
I wore my old twist out in a high puff.
I rocked a finger coil set that is almost 3 WEEKS OLD!! I threw on a cute headband, fluffed and went about my business. 🙂

For Memorial Day Since It Was Blazin' Hot Here In Chi-City I Decided To Pin My Mini Two Strand Twists Up Into A Faux Fro Hawk Style To Avoid Any Hair Being In My Way While Chowing Down On Some BBQ!:)
Love Your Wash & Go's Btw, You Always Look So Fierce!
I rocked my hair in a shingled do with SMCES and AIAN Smoothing Gel, turned out great Im gonna try that again soon!
I rocked a 4 day old twist-out that was big and fierce!!!

I rocked the HECK out of some twists on memorial day! Old Trusty. Ambyr A.
Wash and go boo!
I added a little heat for a silky flat iron! I'm a part of team #it's my hair to do as I pleas 🙂
I rocked a 6 day old twist-out that's now a little fro! It's wash day tomorrow 🙂
I had to work today, at a hospital. I rocked a 3 day old twist out which I re-moisten and banded to stretch. it was big and fluffy and I loved every minute of it. Even as it got bigger after walking in 90 degree heat.
Wicks
I went 2 a BBQ and I did 4 twist on both sides of my head to make a mohawk! I then used Tresmes Naturals and water to make my curls POP!! Lol!! Thank you!
Hey Nikki. I rocked my very hot Memorial Day with my hair in twists with one side flat twisted back. You take great pics. Do have an instagram or have you considered getting one?
A super hot Memorial Day–it was 93 degrees in Chicago–I wore my hair in a French roll!
Your travel photos are awesome, keep 'em comin'!
Hello Nikki, enjoyed a family outing at Chima Brazilian Steakhouse. I'm wearing a twist-n-curl. My hubbie can't keep his hands out of my hair today.

Well Nikki my hubby is a vet and today was his day but unfortunately we did not get to BBQ because Im working a full 16 hour day today however my mom did come up (on my request) to watch our 21 month old son and to cook my hubby a good old fashion country cooked meal of Collard Greens, Fried pork chops, Corn bread, Fried green tomatoes, and his all time fav Pecan pie. So my hair was really the least of my worries but I did happen to rock a much loved afro I took down my two week old mohawk sprayed it with some leave in conditioner and water and put a rolled up head band around it and rocked it nappy yet happy
My hair was in an awesome braided fro hawk style that I've been rocking for the past two weeks. It was on it's last legs, so I jazzed it up by putting a pompador in the front !
I'm still transitioning..so went with my trusty braid out with a glitter headband 🙂
I'm a newbie w/ handling my transitioning hair is a bit difficult. These days I'm rocking a bun, and today I rocked a high bun with a fancy headband!
I changed it up and surprisingly, I got a lot of compliments :)….After wearing my hear in a bun for about the last 6 months, I did two strand twists a few days ago. My front pattern is really loose so the roots don't look twisted anymore. I decided to use this to my advantage. I tied my edges down 1 hour before I had to leave. On my way out the door I pulled my hair back in a clip, half-up half-down and put a leopard print scarf on and slightly pushed it back. Apparently it looked better than my usual style 🙂

I wore my hair in a headwrap because my blowdryer wouldn't work yesterday. My BBQ was a burger and fries at Five Guys cause I don't know how to grill.
Nicol C.
I had way too many drinks pre Memorial Day so I had to rock a puff! Lol!
Rocked a braid out!
easy breezy wash and go!
I have flat twists in the front and bantu knots in the back.
I rocked my curly TWA, after FINALLY having the "big chop" this week! Loving the new me and my new found freedom! 🙂
After washing the smoke from grillin, I did a low puff
Day 2 wash and go ponytail.
Day 2 wash and go ponytail.
I am an "army brat" stationed with my parents in the Washington DC Area where it was steaming hot(97 degree heat index!!!) for Memorial Day. I decided to forget about how hot it was going to be at the local parade my family attended and undo my two strand flat twists to rock a wavy shoulder length style a la the style Shanti from Around The Way Curls wore her hair to their CurlDaze event. Yes I was HOT, and yes my curls began to lose some wave in the heat, but overall it was a good wavy look and I will be able to maintain it for about two more days if I take care at night. I had an outstanding Memorial Day where the work of those who serve our country was reflected upon and celebrated. I am very proud to be a member of a US Army family!

in a high, chic, messy bun with a cute scarf
Decided on a last minute Wash and Go for the DC memorial day parade. It grew and by the end of the day I ended up pulling it up to a puff.
Well, you inspired me to try my first wash and go. I ended up looking like Doughboy from Boyz in the Hood, so braided it up and rocked my braids under a hat. When I got home I took my damp braids out and tried my curlformers for the first time. I'm in love and I have found my summer look. I have my curlformed (made that up) hair in a 'nikki bun'. Thanks, Nikki!
I rocked a 4 day old braid-out and it was as big as the summer day is long!
I rocked a BAA (Big @$$ Afro)! We spent the weekend at a friends & I blew out my mane expecting her to braid it up for me, by the time I got through braiding her hair, I was too hot & tired for her to do mine, so I just decided to be FREE. My husband is always begging me to wear it out, he finally got his wish.
Great Memorial Day weekend. I rocked a wash n go puff all weekend and I think today the 3rd day my curls were the best. This was my first time wearing a wash n go and I so adore this style now!
I rocked a twist out and then pulled it up for a puff! I love my natural hair! Now off to dc with two new deep conditioners. So excited!
I am spending my day with my husband who is a member of the US Navy and our son rockin my twist out….he loves my hair and all its curliness!!!! Happy Memorial Day!!!!
Memorial day BBQ?! I wish! I was driving from Virginia beach back to DC. But my hair was too fly to stay plaited up under a scarf so I untwisted it while sitting in stand still traffic and rocked a twistout all the way up I-95
Wash and go TWA for the morning. And now it is deep conditioning with Bee Mine bee u tiful conditioner. Gonna leave in all nite and rinse out in morn. 🙂
I rocked two strand twists with a huge floppy hat.
Myeshia U.
well I'm rocking a TWA. Yesterday I did a wash'n go and styled with Eco Styler gel, and today I sprayed with water and oil mix ran my fingers through it and rocked on :-))
I got my hair straightened last Friday so I could get my ends clipped. Needless to sat, I rocked my hair pinned up with a clip under a mesh hat :-). Too hot!
-Clarise C.
First – Nikki your wash and go is the Bomb.com.
Second – For Memorial Day I wore a twistout sidebun w/ a flower. It was entirely too hot and muggy in the STL for BIG hair.
Today I played catcher to my husband and son. I wore a nice head wrap and kept it moving.
Hi Nikki,
You and your hair are so BEAUTIFUL!God Bless.
These site is becoming more about modeling/fashion pics and less about true education and support of natural hair outside of the forum post. Logging on is starting to become a disappointment!
Flat twisted up do. Loving the protective style!
Siobhan S.
2 day old twist out, still highly textured.
The hubby and I stayed in yesterday & today. My hair is still two strand twisted from my wash day Saturday night. I will untwist for work in the morning.
No BBQ – just relaxing. Easy breezy two strand twists pinned back on one side for me today.
Today i wore my day 3 hair (W/G). yep you guessed it, it was frizzy with this Texas humidity. but i can rocked it. It is a high pony securely tied with a green and white scarf to match my shirt.
Rocking a 3rd day twist out (which is an accomplishment for me and my fine curlies…) pinned to the side with an awesome twistout bang with a cute blk & white polka dot scarf to add some flare 🙂
My hair?! A day old wash and go that never went…thrown up on a "bun" with a headband…don't judge me.
I live in Jacksonville, FL so I had to weather storm beryl this memorial day. So I spent the day indoors with my hair in my satin bonnet enjoying my veteran husband and kids. My twist out will have to wait until tomorrow.
Nothing special. A day old twist out.
-Quaneasha W.
No bbq for me either. But I am traveling and currently rocking flat twists!
Wearing a twistup with the pompadour.
I rocked a fab twist out…it was my best twist out ever!! =]
Rocking two day old twist out <3 the site-Nadine M.
I have my hair in a set. It is getting hot here in Detroit, so I don't want any weave hitting my neck. Saturday night, I washed and conditioned my hair with an egg and she's conditioner. Anywho, I braided my hair, rolled the braids with perm rods, and let it air dry. My hair is really one day curly. Since it's longer in the front it is falling to the left side, really cute.
Letitia S.
No BBQ, in Louisiana it's the crawfish boil! My hair is in twists because the juice can get real…it'll be just right for a twist out when it's time to board the plane back to Atlanta.
No BBQ for me and my husband. We're going to see a sweet baby girl in the hospital then food shopping! Whoopee! I just washed and twisted my hair so it's fly. I'm sad that there isn't a BBQ to show off my mane but oh well!
Took my flat twists out and rocked a bad twist out. First time wearing my curls since I got it flat ironed and cut! Loved it!
I call mine "Brain on Top"…wash and go curls slicked forward and locked down with side combs and situated nicely to the front left side of my head:-)
I'm wearing a sew in as a protective style with some of my hair out in the front. So I fluffed my weave and added a headband and out I went for the day.
No BBQ today, just shopping to accommodate my new accessory…baby bump. I did a wash and go and it was cute for a whole hour now it's shrunken to about a quarter of the length.
Picked out afro! I feel amazing and that sarong would make things even better!

Today I'm rocking a 2nd day twistout in a puff. In the front I did a flat twist to the back that kinda looks like twist bread 🙂
[drools over the food pics…catches self & wipes mouth to reply] lol.
I just finished a set of yarn braids. Just finished, as in 4am just finished, so my BBQ look is them half up, half down. And I am feeling quite cute (and accomplished, haha).
🙂
No barbecue .. but I'm still making my hair work for me! =) just finished my wash n go…that took forty five minutes? lol. . . beauty comes at a price, I guess. 🙂
Unfortunately, no BBQ for me and the Hubs…we are spending the day with our beautiful baby boy in the NICU!!!! But next year it is on and poppin!!!! I am rocking an old WnG, that I have tucked and rolled on the sides. Happy Memorial Day!!!!
Hey Nikki!
I am rocking a wash and go that with my shrinkage looks like a twa!! Later I am going to do my bi-weekly henna gloss so I am not pressed to look cute at the moment. Glad you had a blast, thanks for letting us peek into your adventures. Have a blessed and safe trip home to Boogie 😉
I'm rocking a twistout.
I didnt go to a BBQ :(, but my hair is currently in a weave as a protective style…the fro wont debut until my bday lol
I am wearing a twistout with a colorful scarf around the crown.
90 degrees outside. O_o Ran my hair under the showerhead, slathered on some Qhemet Moringa Tree leave in and some Honey Hyrdating Balm. Fro kept my hair off my neck. Thank you shrinkage!!
I wore mini-twists to my church's picnic. They're literally in my hair all the time, because they're not fussy. And for a college student, that is ideal.
I wore my hair in a high puff with twist out bangs. So easy and carefree!!
So I did not exactly get a chance to go to a Memorial Day BBQ:/ Ive been stuck working but I thought in the spirit of the holiday I would still do my hair for work!! Ive been transioning for about 10 months now and have finally got rid of all my relaxed ends!! (YAY ME) so I have finally been able to rock a super cute wash and go!! Ive been complemented on it all weekend! I LOVE the look and its perfect for the summer:)
-Danielle
The heat & humidity is cray! My hair wasn't cooperative so its in a bun lol
Braided up and loving it :")
No MM barbecue for me. Just fed and chased my three kids and six of their water-gun toting friends around. Did a blow out about four days ago and it's still going strong, even through the water fight. – Char

I'll be rocking one big flat twist, side braid with a fluffed out old twistout.
I'm rocking a three day old twist-out to hit up this pool. I revisited Carols Daughter Healthy Hair Butter and Loc Butter to achieve the best twist out thus far! Now, three days later it is a little less defined and wild…just how I like it 🙂 Happy Memorial day to my fellow service members past and present!

I rocked my hair in a curly bun on the top of my head! It's too hot to have hair all in my face and on my neck lol!
Wow your hair and the outfit looks really good. But onto the dinner part, was that all that the chef made? because that was might skimpy. I would have left their still starving lol…. I'm not doing anything to my other than reuntwisting the 2 strand chunky twists and applying more cantu shea butter cond w/ wgo in the yellow bottle and putting twists back in the hair. It's been raining here in Ga, suppose to all week ):.
2nd day wash & go pulled up into a huge puff.

I didn't do anything special to my hair…simple twist for having fun in the water!
You rocked your hair the entire trip Nikki!!! Fabuuuuuulous!. I revisited the wash and go with this awkard not short not quite medium length for Friday and Saturday but for the bbq yesterday I had to do a few chunky twists on the old damp wash and go and rock that…a hit, with less shriinkage!
Happy memorial day! I'm in Myrtle Beach with my soon to be hubby! It's extra hot so I'm rocking a pony puff with a couple cute curls hanging down!!

I am rocking a wash n go shook out puff…jersey has been hottt!
I rocked my hair in a wash and go. More like a curly Afro.
I worked yesterday so my hair was braided under an asymetrical wig with Chinese bangs. It was hot but I made sure to wear a satin cap under it. Trying to retain length!
I have a twist out placed in a messy bun and topped with a stretchy headband.

I am sporting fresh twists for a protective style.
Cute big bun right on the top of my head! Helps keep the sweat off and shows off my beautiful summery face ^_^
I live in MS & it's too hot to breathe outside, so I'm rocking big twists under my bonnet.
No BBQ for me, but I'm wearing my mini twist. I heart them.
Kimberly T.
Luscious twist out!!!
I kept it simple this Memorial Day Holiday since it's kind of warm in the DC area and today marks the 7th month of my transition, so I try not to manipulate my hair too much! I'm obsessed with the high bun look (so simple, so elegant and so cool in the summer), but my a hair is literally cut in a bob right below my hairs PLUS I'm transitioning so I have shrinkage. I added some gel to dry hair and created a high bun with kinky type hair that I had left over from a photo shoot. It turned out perfect with the dresses that I wore this weekend…the textures look natural and I received tons of compliments. I'm now on day four of my high bun style and plan to wear it until wash day sometime this week 🙂
No cookout for me. So my hair is staying in twists until tomorrow when I'll rock a twist out.
cereza25 at yahoo dot com
I'm rocking a fresh chunky twist out today! As for my outfit a maxi dress with sandals

You are so cute, Nikki!!
I wore my hair pulled up in a puff with a hump in the front. I was manning the grill, so I wanted to keep my hair simple & off my face 🙂
Rocking a twist out on an old wash-n-go. I really didn't like the turn out but my hubby and the rest of the fam thought it was awesome. #guessIwaswinningafterall.
I'm going to rock a bomb flat twist out and most importantly killer confidence to shut all the naysayers who had something to say about my hair a year ago.
🙂
Yay! I'd LOVE a multi-purpose scarf!!! Today I'll probably pin up my twists and find some accessory to tie the look together. Thanks.
Monica S.
Just Now waking up and I'm seeing it's suppose to be in the 90s today which means its going to be a wash and go day with my homemade leave-in and nothing else for my favorite Uncle's cookout. My fam likes how my hair shrinks into TWA anyway.
Jasmine B. of MD
I rocked a side ponytail (that was a result of a three day old twist out) under a fedora..it was super cute because instead of doing the traditional one ponytail I did two ponytails, one atop the other, to give the illusion of one big fluffy, voluminous ponytail #winning
This is the last day of a wash n go (like day 7) that has morphed into sort of a puff. Tonight I'll wash n go again for another week.
I'm rocking a wash-n-go today. I used to call it a wash-n-no because I didn't like the way it looked. Thanks!
I'll be wearing all that I can achieve being a newbie which is a WnG, unless I can convince my teenage daughter who likes playing in my hair to coil it. Happy Memorial Day Nikki.
I am rocking week old cornrows
Its been hot this week in VA, so I have been rocking two strand twists in updo's. This weekend I had a roll tuck and pin style with my twists and added a flower for the cookout
I am rocking my hair in cornrows.

No BBQ today, but I'm rocking a large twists today with a brown bandu (headband)
I've rocked twists under a turban for the past two days. Haven't decided if I'm going to realease the twists or do another day of protective styling. Either way, I will be rocking a pair of the fiercest earrings and my new favorite summer lipstick. Hope you all have a great day!
I'm rocking a really old twistout, which turned into a shrunken dry afro, which will turn into a moisturized stretched out afro/chunky twist out! (after I put these chunky twists in)
I'm rocking a puff from a four day old twist out

i did a fabulous updo with my protective styles and wore some cute earrings to match!
Right now I'm rocking flat twists in the front and my afro in the back. Its super cute and fun.
I am transitioning so everyday is either exciting or frustrating dealing with my mane! However, yesterday I co-washed, followed with Leave-In, Shea butter, and oil and twisted, twisted twisted.Untwisted today and The results were fantastic!!! I was so impressed and pleased with today's results. I'm just hoping I can repeat with the same look of trying to blend the two textures YAY!!Trying to stay encouraged 🙂
My lazy self rocked the same old five day wash and go.
I'm going through closing on a house, so as far as my hair, it's on Sweet Brown status. #aintnobodygottimefodat
