aite yall i know im supposed to "never break my wave pattern". Does that mean when im washing my hair with shampoo i cant rub my dome against the grain? (for example rubbing the top of my head backwards) And does that apply for when i rub in pomade as well?

Good lookin, ahead of time.

Number one rule...never break your pattern. If you washed against the grain you would be breaking you pattern. So...washing against the grain=bad.

i beleive in that 2 i never brake my pattern always wash ur hair with grain and i would recommend brushing in the shower, and DONT EVER RUB POMADE IN UR HAIR AGAINST THE GRAIN.
waves and not brushin dats a oxymoron
not brushin, u must be a moron

thanx spinna

i think its ok cuz if ur washin with da grain den ur not really cleanin yo hair.. if u actually rub ur hair den ur gettin down with the dirt and ish. u know? If u washin forward den ur just pushin da dirt and oil back into ur hair and not actually pushin all out.

washing against the grain won't hurt any.. it doesn't really break your wave pattern..

that is perfectly normal just dont get too crazy with it as soon as i get through i rub my pattern in like jigga said that is the only way to get those pomades and moisturizers out. but the number rule is to never ever break your pattern,holla.
