U can tell yo barber 2 cut u all even, but tell him 2 use a high guard. #1.5 or #2. If u already got some waves get a # 2 cut. if u about 2 start brushin get maybe a # 1.5. Gettin a taper help yo ish look fresh 2.

depends on ya texture and your wave progress, if your startin out, maybe a 3 guard atg (my preference) and once ya shyt is trained and reall deep, you can cut shorty, no less than a dark ceaser
you can add a temple taper, which is where they fade the hair on your temples startin from the hairline, from almost bald into the rest of the cut, depends if its your style
the back can be boxed, (where the bottom of the back is cut so its a straight line, a curve, where the back is curved, or a taper, where the bottom is faded
make sure ya hair is clean and not wet, and you'll be good
remember, to let yah hair grow out and brush and durag when you want progress with ya waves

Yea if u startin go wit tha 1.5. I think a 1.5-2 is universal and good for anyone.
I just went and got a cut today. I was pretty clueless too since I just got rid of my braids so I haven't had a real cut yet. I walked in and the barber already knew what to give me. Hit me up with a "Caesar." Dunno all the specifics and numbers and what not, but I mentioned I was gonna start working on waves and he gave me that.
yah #2 with the grain cut is good for waves especially if just starting out. or anything else thats been said. i know since i started waving ive only had 1 haircut so far and i was a little unsure about what to get, actually i had a pretty good idea kuz i was on this site, but my barber's awesome. he knew exactly what to do as soon as he seen my waves.
"but this is the remix, with the cheap tricks, hittin' sweet licks, and I cut the braids off but the waves in the fade'll make you seasick!"
