Yo I remember a lot of ppl here who have cut thier waves of COMPLETELY and found it quite beneficial. Its summer vacation and I feel that I should cut off my waves and start over cuz...i got the time. If it works I could possibly get great connections. If it doesnt i could lose my waves (at worst) or have the same stuff i have now.What do u guys think? Should I do it?

It took me about a year to get my waves tight, so I probably wouldn't want to go through that difficult wave training process again.  But to each his own.  I do know that Twingotti got scalped and is starting over.  And I also know that getting scalp and starting over with a better brushing motion and better brushing angles is one of the best ways to change and improve your overall wave pattern, but it takes time and patience.

Just get a low cut and work with it. If you cut it all off you may not reach the level that your at now.
CHANGE ON THE WAY !!

As WC mentioned i got a baldy 4 weeks ago to get my 360's as close as perfection as possible. I've always had waves but I never brushed my hair in the proper direction to have true 360's. I will post pic at different stages to show my progression from beginning to end.

I feel that.  It took alot of time and it was very difficult for me to get my waves tight.  I don't know if I would do it over again.
