Hmm...maybe Rae, Fina, Mer, and/or Kalika can weigh in on the PH, and
AMM, Octavia, and others on the WaWa. I've had the most luck with the
technique I've outlined above, but maybe they have some tips that would
help.
I will say that I don't think the PH responds well to being cut
straight across with a standard scissor; you need to cut into it, trim
with a feather scissor, or cut with a razor. Also, the brush you're
using could be causing snags.
Anyway, good luck; hopefully, some others will chime in.

I definitely think PH needs to be razored thinned whatever to keep from
tangling on itself. I don't know how long you are wering it but
the way the ends are tobegin with is a good start but it needs a little
razoring beyond that in my opinion.(using any which method you like)
I however haven't really worried about maintaining the curl. I
was just razoring the ends a weft for clip ins and then razoring the
ends of open ended braids to keep them happy and that's different
then what hair is subjected to loose on your head. Mine seems to
be doing okay so far but I've only had it in for 1/2 to one week(took a
while to complete the install).
I'll let you know what happens as it happens with my head.
are feathering scissors and thinning shears the same thing? I do have
some thinning shears. used to have a razor too but i have no idea what
happened to it.that may be a problem since the ends are mostly blunt
cut. i did put in a few long layers but that doesnt do much to break up
the ends.
I love the dome care mist and the downy lavender-vanilla fabric
softener, both work pretty well with this hair. I also have some of the
dome smooth conditioner and a dome brush coming in the mail, hopefully
those will help.
