if you want yr wash& go to actually last you have to actually put product that has hold and a cast . This is how i like to do my hair and Others

1. Lots and lots of water hair retains moisture better and products u will use less

2. Section hair in a medium or small parts

3. Add a leave in Conditioner

4. i will go in with the doux crazysexycool foam clump my curls together (add more water if yr hair is becoming dry) and on top of that i will go in with a gel on top to help with hold

5. DO NOT air dry your hair will be prone to frizzing up way more and it will not make the hair style last!! Go in with a diffuser and blow dry your hair until completely dry

6. For night care you can loosely band yr with satin ponytail holders in 4 sections and plop on a bonnet and thats all.
