OK ya'll...I been getting some bmail about 360s by newbies. Now I would like to ask all of those who are spinning to please post how long it took you to get your 360s the way they are now. * If you feel they need improvement, estimate how many months you feel that u need to make them look better (connect/straighten direction). *Also, can you post how many brushes you had to try and how many products u had to try. (You can list them if you like). I want the newbies to see, that it take more than a week to get 360's and the work people put into getting them. Thanks everyone for your help.  ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |

Thanks Chess... I just want the newbies to read this instead of asking me. A few had been trying for only a few days and expect to have some kind of wave going on. Hopefully they will read this to see it takes work. ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |

9 months 2 brushes. Vidal Sassoon Medium, Annie Hard brush, and palm vidal sassoon medium(current) the only pomades i ever used for an extended period of time was sportin' waves, 360, and ice pomade. I've tried almost everything else and didn't like it. ------------- Official Dream Team Member http://www.dreamteam360.net - Dream Team Website! http://xcess-host.com/jarvis/mack.htm - My Waves Waves flowin like da seven seas.... |

Well I been in the wave game for since April but experimenting got the best of me and I decided to use a kit. I have been working on the waves I have now, for about 6 weeks. My sides need a lot of improvement, I can't seem to get them in now. I think it'll take about another 8-9 weeks to get them depending on the time I brush. I used a lot of products, too much to list. My favorite is 360, that's what I started the wave game with. I also like the ice pomade cause it's like gel. As far as brushes...I had The Fade, medium Diane brush, and a cashflow soft brush. ------------- Official Dream Team Member http://www.dreamteam360.net/ - Dream Team Website "DatYoungStar"...going to Hollywood and bringing Brooklyn along son |

ok fine "What do i have to say" A good technique is to: 1. but the ALUMINAL can on do stove for a minute to make the pomade easier to apply 2.and put the wash cloth in the microwave for 45 seconds then take it out and put it on your head. 3.then when the cloth has cooled down, apply ur pomade. then put the cloth back in for 30 seconds this time and put it back on ur head. T 4.then brush. thats my time. Thank you ladies and gentlemen. (pssss the cloth should be wet and wranged out till its not drippin) i aint spinnin. but i brush my hair every single minute of the day. hope to get better b4 the year is over. or thats my new years resolution -------------  MY aim-XxRayRayxXhehexX MY Msn-littler807@hotmail.com |

imm gonna reply but be4 i do lemme say that sum of wat im gonna say is off this topic but still related to this topic juss not directly........i was gonna make a completely new thread but i didn't feel lik bein "shutted up" or denounced for my statement so i decided not to I've had waves for years now.........but I have not taken care of my hair since. I've combed my hair, cut against the grain, not given my hair its proper nutrients, all of that. I only really started getting serious on my hair November 1, so its been almost two months for me......I've used all kinds of brushes, but mostly medium and hard brushes, and the Only popular one I have is Annie. I REALLY dun think its THAT important wat brush u use in reference of the kinds of brushes ppl around here use......juss becuz they used a diane(for example) to get their waves, dun mean u HAVE to use one.....use a brush that best suits ur hair length and texture, and unless ur usin a brush wit its bristles fallin out its not gonna matta which one u use. Same thing goes for pplz methods and pomades and ect......Evn i have plaunderd membas wit questions askin their exact method and pomades and how they brush they hair. But you kno wat? the bottom line is that it DOESN;T matta.........yes, different pomades giv different re****s, and different brushin ways gives u differnt waves..........but moss pplz and mostly newbies go around basing theiy hair methods and EVERYTHING to certain membas here.....the bottom line is that every1s hair is different.....truth b tol, i only really acknoledged that a few days ago and i've been pondering on that.........we spend way too much time obsessin on ota pplz waves and their methods and sayin "o yea i hav hair lik that" or "yea imma get mine juss lik urs" and do NUTTIN bout it, n dun act lik yall dun b doin that cuz there r 60 suttin odd pages off proof........we hav to develop a way that specifically fits OUR hair not HIS or HER hair u kno?......tha reason y sum ppls dun see ne progreess is cuz we treat our hair lik its a piece of shyt......u'll get wat u giv.....u goota treat it wit care n use things that r not too stoing or do things that r too strong fo our hair.....juss cuz sum1 uses 360 doesn't mean u HAVE to use it u gotta experiment cuz if u hav thick hair or a differnt texture then u might b doin the exact wrong thing........u hav to experiment so u kan find suttin that works for u n once u start seein re****s keep usin it til u dun see ne results.......dun change inbetween cuz every1 is gettin this product n that product......look i have a challenge for every1 on this site....but only if ur that serious bout ur waves......really get down on ur grind.......u kno wat?.....if we ALL really wanted to n willed and brushed hard enuff, we kood ALL join the dreamteam .....personally, i think that i am made for good things.........i will to be on the elite, to b the best of the best.....n where there is will, there is way my friends.......i think we ALL hav the potential to b the elite, to hav the mack or cedclark or n1k or vg or cardinal waves(juss a set of my favorite off my head).......we KAN reach the top, but most of us dun really believe that we kan........we juss wine n how r waves suck n how sumone elses waves r good n do nuttin bout ourself......well not me......i AM goin to b the elite, and evn then im only goin to improve......we all meet obstacles in our lives, but the reel soldiers dun run away or try n go around it......we go go RIGHT against it HEAD on, so nexx time we kno wat to expect........u kant b taught about lifes hardships to learn and undastand it.......u hav to EXPERIENCE them, n that goes for everything......from the biggest things lik a family death, to a little thing lik a bad hair cut or a pomade........well I am goin to go through everything and nething to reach the sky......and the sky is as far as u want it to be. Im goin to the top n i hope i see the rest of you there wit me.......this is gonna b my lass post for awhile; im tru to my words n instead of concentratin on talkin bout ota pplz waves or skoolin a newb, im gonna b workin on my own piece of work.........juss lik the ota greats in the wave game r doin as we speak........i dun kno wen im gonna kom bak, mayb a day, mayb two days, mayb 2 weeks, mayb two months.........n im not sayin wen i finally return im gonna b the best..........nope not at all........im sayin wen i com bak im gonna hav suttin to show for my time for bein here besides a few hundred posts.......now, if u think this is a bull**** post, im sorry to hear that, if nething i hope it motivates newbies and even regular membas to finally step there game up.....so if yall think this is a bogus poss u kno wat?....too bad, aint nuttin u kan do about it cuz u already reached the end of my post so tough cookies.....if u hate it that much then feel free to post and attack me on this thread........not that i care.........im not gonna b around to reed it n u probably sayin wat ur sayin cuz u kno wat im sayin is tru, u juss for sum reason hav a hard time acceptin it..........o well not my problem..........for the rest of yall, i'll c u at the top!!......i juss want the whole forum to kno this: a quiet storm is coming, and when it hits, its gonna hit fast, quick, and hard........DREAMTEAM STAND UP I'LL B JOININ YALL SOON......BETTA BELEIVE IT.......now if u can't respect that, your whole perspective is wack, maybe you'll love me when I fade to bl....... ------------- http://community.webshots.com/user/blackfate1056 - http://community.webshots.com/user/blackfate1056 |

Maybe for you, but it is apparent that it take longer for others. So let's not get peoples hopes up cause they ain't spinning within your time span. Thanks for the info tho Card. Thanks Blackfate for your post. Very informative and it holds truth. That is why I have this thread...I want people to know that it takes time to get waves, trial and error with everything. ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |
