Need sum advice 4 my texture, pics included

UPDATE: Here are some pics of my hair just after the shower today with a little indian hemp and no du ragging.









And here is some pics of my hair earlier this year when i cut it to a 2, duragged wit some pomade.






Wut it do wut it dont ma nigz. I need a lil advice for forming my waves in my straightish hair. Naw, dis aint anotha n00b who aint read sh*t, dont even trip haha.

Lemme introduce myself, dis ya boy Etreya reppin the Bay all day yall already know wut it is. I been lurkin round readin up on methods and products etc cuz I jus got up on my wave game this past monday when i cut off the braids, and im trynna find out if what im doin is right so far for my texture, cuz my hair curls up at like maybe a inch, its pretty damn soft and straight, my family says i got "good" hair or wuteva. Btw im half Dominican and half white, errbody think im half black half spanish here in tha Bay haha. Ima get pictures up soon as i can to show yall my texture.

Anyway this past monday i cut my hair (yup, im my own barber) to a 1.5 fade, and rite now its kinda stickin up diagonally, not straight up, i can already see a real slight bend/curl to them. So what im doin rite now is just in the mornin I put some "s-curl activator & moisturizer no-drip" in my hair, massage it good into my hair/scalp, and let it air dry witout a durag. Then in the afternoon/evening i put some more s-curl into my hair and put on a moist du rag, let it dry for like a hour and take it off. I aint brushin yet cuz i dont see any definite curls yet, im jus trynna keep it moisturized and get maximum curl potential while its growin before I start brushin it to straighten it out even more. Is this a good move or should i be brushin/duraggin 24/7 until real curls start to show up??

As far as products, i kno i need a soft brush fa sho. What's a example of a good softie that i cud prolly get at walgreens or somethin? Im trynna cop some pink lotion cuz i heard good stuff about it, but after reading ChrisDogg's strait hair method, im wondering if some indian hemp to thicken my hair would also help at all for more defined curls.

Any suggestions yall got for me?? Is what Im doin so far a good idea or shud i be brushin and duraggin more??
