…A beginners guide

Training your hair

Training your hair is just brushing it the way you want it to grow. Its really like training a dog. It takes a lot of work at first, but once you have it trained then you don't have to tell it what to do as much, if at all (brushin it).

Its good to start with low hair when you first start to train you hair. (My waves look even better than before now that I cut off my fro and started from scratch) Get a short haircut and use the brushing habits below.

Until your waves are in deep, DO NOT return your hair to its original training length when it is time to get a haircut. (Remember your hair shouldn't get your hair cut too short after you begin training. If you are used to short haircuts then the length your hair would normally be when you get a haircut is the perfect length that you want your hair to be when you go in for a trim.)

You should wait about a week and a half longer than usual and then go in for a TRIM NOT A HAIRCUT.   This may seem a little long but it helps your waves form better.) After your first trim you should get a trim about every week or so. Until you finish training. It is quite expensive at first, but after your waves are trained the benefit is that you can get your hair cut all the way down like you used to AND wait a little longer than you used to before you have to go get a haircut. It actually starts to look nicer towards the time you may decide to get a haircut.

(I get mine cut about once every 3 or 4 weeks and a line up when I need it but every now and then I go a LONG time without cutting it by laying it down really good. If you get real good at laying it down then you may not cut your hair until about a month or so. Believe it or not, the waves look a lot better.)

After at least 2 or 3 weeks you should see a difference and after about 5 or 6 weeks (at most) your hair should be through training and your waves should be in deep enough to get a lower haircut if you want to.

Brushing Habits

<!--[endif]-->

Just use a medium brush and brush your hair at least 10-15 minutes a day

(short or long hair)

If your hair is thick and its long then you should use a harder brush.
(Never brush more than 20 minutes straight with a hard brush; it can irritate your scalp).

If you want 360s brush your hair in the direction it grows away from the center of your crown on all sides. (Think of throwing a rock in water and wrapping the waves around your head) Your hair will have parts in it after you're done brushing so make sure after you're done brushing, just touch up the crown by brushing the parts out.

Make sure you treat all the sides equal so your waves don't break up and make you have gaps in your 360s..
(Sometimes your hair might not wave in some places as much as others anyway though)

Also brush your hair for short periods of time WHENEVER YOURU CAN. Even if its just while your walking to class or watchin T.V., it helps. If you don't brush your hair any place else, at least brush it in the shower every morning cause when your hair is wet it is easier for your hair to lay down and go the way you want it ("train") which makes it easier for it to form waves. (I got a brush I use only in the shower)

Layin it Down

ALWAYS brush your hair when you take a shower and ALWAYS rinse your hair. Make sure you shampoo it at least once a week but DONT shampoo everyday. Use a conditioner EVERYDAY and after you rinse it out brush your hair hair until its around 80% dry.

It should still be moisturized from the water and now you should put your grease on. Any grease is fine just dont use a grease that rinses out easy. If you use a heavy grease like Murrays or bees wax then put the grease on your hair and put a hot wet towel on your hair to melt it (You can melt it with a blow dryer too)(Just dont use too much grease!).

Brush it through so its on even everywhere. After you got your grease on now take a really wet warm towel and rub it across your head in the direction your waves go (thats why your dont want to use an easy rinse grease yet cause it will rinse right out)

Your hair should be real wet again now (like when you got out the shower) and you should have grease on too. Now put your durag on and leave it on until your hair is dry.

<!--[if !supLineBreakNewLine]--> <!--[endif]-->

If your still training your hair, then After your hair dries you should brush it on all your free time and before you go to bed. When your hair gets longer after you lay it down, IF YOU HAVE YOUR WAVES HOW YOU WANT THEM then you shouldn't brush it if you going out or want it to look neat, because it will never lay back down exactly the way it was, unless you do it over.

But IF YOURE STILL TRAINING YOUR HAIR YOU SHOULD BRUSH IT JUST LIKE YOU DO ANYWAY UNTIL YOUR WAVES ARE TRAINED.



Final Stretch

NEVER go to bed without a durag on cause itll mess up the way your hair is tryin to grow and thats a waste of brushin. NEVER go against the grain. (while you training it)

If you do this EVERY DAY after about a week or two your hair should be growin the way you brush it and you wont have to brush it as much. You should have pretty good waves by then. NOW you can just use a easy rinse grease if you don't like using heavy stuff. Or if you just want your waves to look harder.

You should get a trim every 2to3 weeks and if you want then tell your barber to cut your hair in the direction it grows. (Sometimes they cant though because of cow licks but after your waves are in deep cutting against the grain doesn't matter too much)

Dont get it cut too low if you still trying to train your hair to get waves.
(You can get it cut low after your waves in pretty deep though but if they aint you gon be practically starting over) (You know they in deep when you can look at your hair real close and see it curlin up like a S)

The longer your hair get the better your waves will form and look. After you get your waves in tight NOW you can use a soft brush when your hair is short to make them more defined or when its long, just to touch it up without messing up the way you layed it down.

If your want waves though you gotta let your hair get a little long and stick wit it. Once you got your waves in deep then you don't even have to spend too much time brushin your hair, just lay it down and brush it alil then go. And you can wear a low haircut all you want.
