Always wash your hair before you get a haircut, especially if your goin to a barber shop, you don't want to be in the chair and they start cutting you hair and there is flakes flying everywhere. Wash your hair and don't put any type of thick grease or pomade in your hair. A lil Carrot cream, or a lil pink oil lotion is okay in your hair so you hair isn't dry, but only very little.

I Use A Hard Brush Everytime I Brush My Hair And When I Do The h2o method spraying water SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE HARD BRUSH???



its okay to use a hard brush but if you really care about your wave pattern you  should use a soft brush just as much or even more than the hard.

hard brushes tend to make your waves come in quicker but kind of crooked, with soft brushes your waves come in a little bit slower than a hard brush but they come in straighter than a hard, and over time it straightens out more and more.


you should not brush your hair with a hard brush for a long period of time when your hair is wet cause when your hair is wet it is the weakest. a hard brush can cause your hair to thin and break. you should only use a soft or medium brush when doin the h2o method.

As i read i keep seeing this carrot creme conditioner popping up and i'm wondering if its right for me man, don't mean to sound like a newbie, but i am! help a brother out!


Welcome to the site homie.

The key to getting your pattern to look its best is to first decide which direction you want your waves to go in. Most of us here brush our hair in the 360pattern, but some brush different ways to make their waves unique.

Second, once you decide your brushing pattern stick with it, don't change it at all.

Use products that promote strong healthy growing hair. You don't have to use products that is marketed to people with waves like POMADES, AND WAVE CREAMS cause they are usually not healthy for your hair. Take a look through the site and you'll notice the most popular products are not the ones that are intended for waves.

I got more tips I can tell you, if you got any specific questions PM me or post in any related topic and i'll hook you up.

360, what did u use for your waves and what are the steps to it.



This is the method I used after I got that jacked up cut a month ago, as yall can see it works.

MATERIALS NEED:

1. 2 soft brushes and 2 medium brushes
2. A couple of du-rags
3. Carrot cream and doo gro
4. Shampoo and conditioner
5. A timer or clock
6. Facial cleanser


MORNING ROUTINE IN/OUT OF SHOWER:

*soft brush only*

1. Place your head under the flow of water and brush each section for 30seconds.
2. Rub in shampoo in the direction of your desired wave pattern and then brush in the shampoo for 1-2minutes each section.
3. Rinse out shampoo while brushing.
4. Rub in conditioner, brush in for 20sec each side and leave it in
until your done showering.
***shampoo/condition hair every 2-3days and on off days just brush in shower for a couple of minutes***
5. Use a towel to get rid of the extra water.
6. Apply Carrot cream in hair and brush each side for a minute, then du-rag it.


NIGHTLY BRUSHING ROUTINE:

1. Apply a generous amount of carrot cream to top of head.
2. With 2 medium brushes, brush the top of your head for 5minutes.
3. Apply generous amount of carrot cream to the back of your head.
4. With 2 medium brushes, brush the back of your head for 5minutes.
5. Apply generous amount of carrot cream to both of your sides.
6. With 2 medium brushes, brush both of your sides for 5 minutes.
7. Repeat steps 1-6 with a soft brush, and instead of brushing for
5minutes brush for 10minutes.

*steps 1-7 takes about  45minutes to complete. I usually do steps 1-7
twice.

8. When done brushing, clean your face with a facial cleanser.
*apply doo gro if your hair is thinning or if you want it to grow faster*

9. Throw on a fresh du-rag
