happy wednesday curly babes✨here’s my low-tension hairstyle for the week—what do we think?👀 y’all were on my assss for that last style 💀😂 but it worked for me honey! I tend to get fairy knots, so end protection is a must when it comes to retaining length. now this wash and go is a liiikkle different—here’s why: 1. ➰ minimal manipulation – 0 stretching, braiding, or putting tension on my hair shaft 2. 🔥 steam for product absorption – steam opens the cuticle, letting my leave-in + gel penetrate better = longer-lasting moisture & definition. 3. 💨 diffusing – helps lock in moisture while minimizing shrinkage (as much as I can, at least lol). using low heat/cool to avoid dryness! 4. 💧 elongating gel on my ends – this step is a game-changer for preventing fairy knots & frizz. **⚠️ for my high porosity curly babes – skip the steam & seal with an oil or butter post-styling for max moisture retention! 🌿Want more low-tension styling inspo? tap into my NEW series, The Natural Hair Blueprint ➔ @jillianalysia RATE THIS STYLE (vote👇🏾) ❀ products used: @innersenseorganicbeauty I create hold gel @auntjackiescurlsandcoils elongating flaxseed gel _ thenaturalhairgrowthblueprint jillianalysia notsponsored shortnaturalhair bigchopjourney lowtensionhairstyles lowtension washandgohair naturalhaircare curlyhairtutorial curlyhairtips hairtutorials hairtutorial naturalhairtutorial hairgrowthtips type3hair type4hair hairgrowthjourney lengthretention healthyhair hairinspo colortreatedhair
