I don't really have one method. I took a lot of peoples ideas on here and mixed it all 2gether. but i usually just put carrot or olive creme and lets jam (if i'm goin out later because it adds the shine that cc doesn't give) in my hair and brush for about an hour and a half (sometimes more if i'm using a softy).  then i put on a du rag, spray it w/ water, and put a wave cap on top of it (check my topic called THE BEST WAY TO PUT ON A DU RAG) i also do the h2o meth because i don't want 2 run out of cc so fast. So for products, i use cc and lets jam. And yea, i shower brush a lot. I shampoo my hair about every other day and use conditioner everyday. And as for cuts; I usually get a #2 WTG (that's the clip that says 1/4 on it). Oh...and of course i wolf.
