Hair Deets.....Shingling

Shingling (or Wash N Go), method done using all Dani-Shea products (whipped butter,  herbal oil, & fresher koils detangler/moisturizer) and eco styler gel (blue one for color treated hair and a level 5 hold - use what works for you) 
Hair freshly washed and detangled using black soap shampoo and deep conditioned for 30 minutes using the cleansing conditioner by Dani-Shea.  I then sectioned hair in 8's (smaller sections work easier). Each section I did the following: sprayed fresher Koils, detangled with fingers at times using a wide tooth comb; applied herbal oil to scalp and massaged with fingertips (not using my nails - may cause scalp irritation); applied cranberry whipped butter mainly to ends of hair; took each section and broke down to much smaller sections and applied eco styler gel;  smooth thru hair and then proceed to separate in smaller parts allowing natural curl pattern to form. May be done on damp to wet hair. My hair was about 40% dry when I started. Process took a little over an hour. Allow hair to air dry or if pressed for time use blow dryer with diffuser (or just on low heat setting focusing on scalp); air drying time depends on each person. Once hair was completely dry I took a nickel size amount of herbal oil and used the "praying hands" method to apply along length of hair. This is what is called "breaking the cast" of the gel. In other words your hair won't be hard/helmet like and will have movement.  For a fuller look like I LOVE,  take your pick and gently lift at roots. This is my first time trying this and I LOVED the results.  Hair gets bigger and fuller as the days go by. I plan to create this style again and will make sure I record it for YouTube. Have a great evening.
