Lol, products don't get you waves and if you look at the ingredients most of them are all the same. The only thing that I know will actually improve your hair is natural products because they have vitamins that improve the quality of your skin and strengthen your hair, but most of the stuff yall promote are water based. In your case, it's not the products that you use it's how obessesively you brush. You like to believe that all these products are making your hair so much better but in reality it's the simple act of brushing your hair repeatatively that improves your hair. I'm sure that if everyone who didn't buy as many products as you do brushed their hair 1000x's a day they would also see improvement as you do.

But not everyone is as devoted and serious about their hair as you are. For some it's just about have a neat and unique hairstyle and it's not about reaching the peak of wave perfection. If everyone had deep, perfectly connected 360 waves then it would be very boring. I mean you for one like SiccWaves waves and he has absolutely no connection. So since he doesn't have perfect waves does he need to use more products?

This is exactly right. Once you find something, stick with it. Hair likes simple routines...I'm sure some of ya'll will figure that out sooner or later.

When I worked for Microsoft in the late 90's, I realized that every time we by software it will be out dated within 3 - 6 months. Crazy, but it's the trueth. American is built on consumerism and comercialization.  (hope I spell that right)

Have anybody hear about Carl Marx and the Marxist theory. Basicly he said America's capitalistic form of government will fail because the rich get richer and the poor gets poor as the years past by. The middle class is getting smaller and smaller in American. This is true in every way if you have your thinking caps on.

I've read the poor mans waves thread and you made some valid points and useful suggestions. I'm not rich, I wish I was, but the reason I and probably and a lot of people have so many products is because we are trying to find what product works best with our hair. I'm not really a fan of the h2o meth., I don't like using pomade when its hot, and with the way I brush I need a lot of brushes. So because of that I tend to spend a lot of doe on products such as brushes, du-rags to match outfits, moisturizers(they're not cheap) and some other things.

I see most threads people make say that they use like 5 differnt things in ur hair to get waves....all  need a water..pomade..wavecap..and ur brush. I guess nobody read my thread about poor man waves..

Maybe cuz i aint rich as ya folk i cant afford to buy a billion products for my hair. I rather by clothes with it..

PS all the junk you buy I bet it doesnt make you get waves faster ne ways..
