I decided to do things a little different this wng. My wngs usually last anywhere between 3 and 5 days depending on what I do to it and how I set it. So this week, I decided to give damp styling another go but I worked in smaller sections and shingled a bit.

No, not the shingling where you twirl an individual curl around your finger. My hair don't do that and it doesn't like it. I did separate each individual coil and broke down some of the bigger clumps. That's how I usually end up getting knots is when the clumps of coils aren't broken down into their singular coils. Also, breaking them down into their smallest/truest form allows them to dry... not the fastest but faster than if they were not separated.

It took me this amount of time to do my whole head and then another 2 hours for drying (1 hour to set air drying, 20-40 minutes diffusing with breaks to let the hair set in between and the rest of the time air drying again).

I have to say, I did like the way my hair came out and because each coil was individually defined, my hair lasted a good amount of time (4 Days). On the fourth day, flakes from the gel was kind of bad but on the 5th day, I had to rinse my hair (couldn't do my signature style for my birthday).

The rinse consisted of my completely rinsing all the product out of my hair by squeezing my hair. This was so I did not disturb my curl pattern and could get more days out of the style. After T-Shirt drying for about 5 minutes and squeezing out any excess product/water, I sealed with JBCO and my oil mix (40/40 - Olive Oil & Coconut oil, remaining 10 - JBCO).

After that rinse, my coils became even tighter and are still well defined. 

I loved how it looks and 14 hours later, my hair is still wet. Update to come soon about how this style lasted the rest of the week.
