it kinda did somedays, especially when it was hot!! my hair would turn like grayish-black from all the pomade and ooze down face, at school!! lol

i used to stick my fingers in some murrys pomade and not even rub my hands together and put it in my head by rubbing finger by finger on my head until i had it all over i used to have white spots all over  my head i did that everyday until my dad showed me how to put it in, and can u belive it was after a fresh cut that i put it  in

^^ Yup, i bet he always lit errybody up with that much.

lol i always had some waves in my hair, but in about 5th grade my friend (who had 360s) tld me i had to use dax, sumfin called a durag, and basically the h2o method with hot tap water. Id brush my hair dry and cake in dax and tie the durag as tight as i can. So painfull...

i have to have the worst story. my dad actually put together a mixture of grease, lotion, water, and who knows what else and told me to put that in my hair and it will wave up. he got tired of me asking him how my cousin got waves and i dont. the funny thing though was one time when i was about 12 or 13 i did get some waves on the top of my head. i brushed my hair hard as hell in the tub everyday for a long time, mostly because i liked how the brush felt with water oppose to dry brushing. one day i notice that i have a wave pattern. nothing spectacular but finally results. too bad i didnt know it was the brushing and water that helped me. man i went right to bed that night "with no do-rag" when i woke up my hair was all over the place. i never did see those waves again. who knew that i would run across this website one day and realize that i had in fact done the h20 method years back and brushing more than anything else was what got me results. i must have put a 1 million tons of wave grease in my head over the next couple of months trying to get those waves back.it's a good thing i ran across this webbie because now my dogs be barking as loud as a Q-dog.

Before I learned how to get waves well here's a better example: Yall remember that Robert Townsend flick back in the late 80s early 90s I think it was called Hollywood Shuffle (could be wrong), well there was a scene where this dude had a jerry curl and he needed that sheen to keep his sh*t juicy lol that scene was funny as hell go see that movie if you getta chance. Thats how I was with pomade I used like half a can on just oneside of my dome   << WHAT WAS I THINKING?.

I can relate to dudes who had waves then I asked them and they deaded me supa hard. Now the script has flipped . I dont even act as if waves are a big secret people ask me, and I say brush your hair then they say im lyin. Its whatever to me either you take the advice or you dont.
