Wash and go\u2019s are my all-time favorite for the summer because they allow me to shake n\u2019 go through the week with minimal touch ups when using moisturizing products like Uncle Funky\u2019s Daughter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, here\u2019s how you can create a bomb wash n\u2019 go routine ideal for the summer heat in five easy steps using Uncle Funky\u2019s Daughter products that you can find at your local RiteAid.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 1:\u00a0 Co-Wash<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because I wash n\u2019 go so frequently, I typically use co-washes in the summer because my hair doesn\u2019t have tons of buildup. I love using Uncle Funky\u2019s Daughter\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/bye-bye-buildup-cowash.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bye-Bye Buildup<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/bye-bye-buildup-cowash.html\"> Cleansing Conditioner<\/a> to start off my routine by focusing it on my scalp, then distributing the product to the rest of my shaft. What\u2019s perfect about this co-wash is the fact that it doesn\u2019t leave my hair feeling stripped or too squeaky, and I\u2019m able to detangle with ease.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3591\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3591\" style=\"width: 270px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3591\" src=\"http:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Nia-July-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/chatbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Nia-July-2.png 1080w, https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/chatbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Nia-July-2-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/chatbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Nia-July-2-50x50.png 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3591\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The UFD line provides all the things you&#8217;ll need to beat the heat!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 2: Deep Condition\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the co-wash is rinsed out, I follow up with the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/heal-and-renew-intensive-hair-masque.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heal &amp; Renew<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/heal-and-renew-intensive-hair-masque.html\"> Intensive Hair Masque<\/a>. You can\u2019t be a hot girl with brittle hair or dry hair. So, take care of yourself and deep condition like the hot girl I know you are! Be sure to focus deep conditioner on your ends since it\u2019s the oldest part of your hair, and cover with a plastic shower cap or grocery bag -hot girls are frugal too- and allow the product to work its magic for at least 30-40 minutes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 3: Hydrate\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once I\u2019m all deep conditioned and rinsed, I make sure that my hair is dripping wet so that it can completely absorb the products. I then go in with the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/thirsty-curls.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thirsty Curls<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unclefunkysdaughter.com\/thirsty-curls.html\"> Leave in Curl Revitalizer<\/a> as a base for my style.

Always, always, always, apply a moisturizing hair milk or hair butter.
