Why don't you give us a pic of your brothers hair now and a pic of the look he wants.

People have worked on very short hair before with mixed results.  Realistic expectations are a really good starting point.

Not long at all; 2 inches is long enough for either glued or microringed tracks. I'd recommend one of those two methods for hair that short. And wavy hair shouldn't be a problem; just get a wave texture that matches his hair, and only leave out enough hair on the top to cover the base of the tracks. That's usually an inch, but will be up to two inches for very thin hair or half an inch for very thick hair.
