As I have stated before, the crown of most 360 wavers heads, spins out clockwise. This means that most crowns grow out in a spiral towards the right. This growth pattern, also, extends out to the entire head. This means that the sides of your head represent to polarizing areas of a spiral. And, if you examine rotation and centrifugal force, the weakest area of a spiral is its starting point and the strongest area of a spiral is parallel to that area or what would be the other side of the spiral. So if you’re looking at your head from the back and see it as a traditional analog clock, the spiral would start at 12 o’clock and rotate to the right. So if you compare your head to a spiral, you can see that the spiral starts on the right side of your head and ends on the left. Since this is the case, the right side of your head is the beginning of the spiral and thus has the weakest area of potential hair grain pattern intensity and the left side of your head is the end of the spiral and thus has the stronger potential hair grain pattern intensity. This discrepancy isn’t noticed until you start trying to train these areas to wave up. The right side wants to go slightly downward and back, like its spiral pattern. Basically you hair grain on the right side needs more training to compensate for the fact that it is in a weak rotation area.  I recommend brushing the right side twice as much as the left with a medium or hard brush to compensate for this discrepancy.

Many 360 wavers brush there right side at a more downward angle to help with these grain and rotational issues.

Iam I am having trouble with my sides...They are not showing up at all I have been working on them and the rest of my waves have come in except my sides when I brush them at an angle they dont show up but when I brush them straight down they kinda show up.. Here's what I am doing right now

I wash/condition my hair 3x's a week but everytime I get in the shower I run my head under the water for a real quick and brush with a softy b4 I get out the shower. At night I Put the Garnier Leave-In Conditioning Cream (Sleek & Shine) in my hair and brush it in with a softy for 5 minutes and then I put carrot creme brush that in with a softy for 5 minutes and durag(Is A wave Cap Better?)...During the day when I am not doing anything I brush & As often as I can I H20 method I dont know how many times you supposed to do it but I dont count. when it feels dry I put the Garnier in.
