    Posted: August 28 2007 at 9:36am
I've noticed that one thing holding me back from getting good 360s is the fact that the hair on the side of my head around the temple area does not lay down well at all and as a result my hair in that area looks a litttle nappy when I remove my du-rag and when I brush it after taking my du-rag off, sticks up. I also use the king cash method.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

What's been really workin lately for me is soakin a wavecap(s), puttin that over dry hair that has already been brushed, then puttin a doorag over that.
 
Here's the results. I've never had my hair layed down this well while wolfin this long.
 
 
Try that and let me know how that works. Just don't brush ur hair after u take off the durag or ur hair will start to stick up again.

Gotdamn Frizzle your hair looks like ice like I can slide off that bitch lol My hair on my sides stick up all the time I get a comb Lift the hair up and run over it with my hard brush then I take out the comb and brush for a few minutes with a soft brush and that works for me. To be on the safe side you should do that in conjunction with what Frizzle said above that should knock the hair down.

the reason your hairs stick up is because the hairs in that area of your head aren't as trained as the other parts that lay down..if you want to fix it permanently without relying on products focus on that area more when your brushing preferably in the shower because shower brushing or h20 brushing trains your hair faster.
