Your basic pattern is starting to develop.  Start using a hard brush if you are not doing that now.  Also, use the H2O method/shower brushing.

Yeah,
I shower brush with a med/hard brush.
when I get out I wait until its dry and hard brush, otherwise it hurts too much lol.
I put some moisterizer in and brush with the hard
then promade when I need too and brush with the med/hard brush.

Im not sure if I'm right but be careful with the direction you brush your right hand side. Just make sure you r brushing it diagonally not just forward. Most people's grains on the right side points down/diag but your seem to point forward.

I am also working on my right side at the moment. I don't really think there's any other advice that to brush more and brush right. I wouldn't conclude till the able vets make their comments. My left side came in way before my right side

I recommend Diane over any Brush once you try Diane no other brush will do
When you brush use a mirror in the mirror so you can see what angle you need to brush to get those sides in.. The H2O Meth Helps

I've been trying the mirrors with the Diane and it works great.

I can't post pics right now, I'm at work.
I'll edit if I can.
But, what exactly is the h20 meth?
As far as water goes, I just wet my hair and brush it until all the water is out.

I guess thats all there is to H2O meth. It makes your hair soft while you brush. Your hair doesn't have to be soaked tho.

ok. I heard that using the softy makes works on your connections. So my meth has been like so:
1.)wet hair, brush well with the softy
2.)wet hair, brush well with the hard
3.)olive moisterizer, brush well with diane medium
(optional)4.)dax or 360 style promade, brush well with diane medium
du-rag
 
That's how my meth has been. Don't know if I need to change anything. Just let me know. And thanks for all the advice so far.
