Well, first off I will introduce myself since I'm new to this site. Never posted before but I found this site a couple weeks ago and been lookin around and y'all are wavin mad crazy. Some of the best waves I've ever seen are right here on this site. I, myself, just cut off my huge ass afro a few months back and was rockin a short cut, but I let it grow out a little after my second haircut since not having the 'fro in order to get back in the wave game. I used to have waves a few years ago but just like on top, never 360, so that's what I'm tryin to do.
anywho, I been wolfin for 11 weeks this Friday and I don't know whether to cut it yet or not. here's some pics so maybe y'all can help me out: Top:

Back:

Left:

Right:

Here's what my ish look like with some carrot creme:

So whattcha'll think? Time to cut or keep wolfing? I really do not like it this long at all, I like to rock my cut short and clean, I'm just growing it out kuz I was told that'll make my waves real nice as long as I brush alot. I'm also hoping my waves are deep enough that they won't disappear when I cut it. but y'all look like you know more about waves than about anybody so any advice is much appreciated. thanks.

Yeah, go long as possible before you get a cut. I am a barber and the only way I would cut that is against the grain to prevent patches because the hair isn't fully trained into a 360 direction or get someone with some A1 scissor skills to cut it. But saying all that I dont think a temple and neck taper would hurt(slow your progress) It would allow you to wolf a couple of weeks longer.

Huh? ^
But Welcome to the site bruh. Definitely hit up Chrisdog212 for specific help cuz you all have close to the same texture. But when u do cut it i'd advise a #3 wtg (with the grain) cut. It's not low but good for ur texture plus you won't loose the waves u've been workin on

alright fellas, thanks for the advice.. and non-racist jokes :).
i seen chrisdog's waves on another topic, and im guessin thats what my sh*t'll look like after i put in some work, i never knew waves took this much time and work til i got reading on this site, and i don't think im brushing enough either, so i guess ima push it another couple weeks or so.

So are you 100% white? If so then that officially stops the stereotype on here that white people can't get waves.
Keep up the good work bruh

yep 100% white. there's a stereotype we can't get waves? lol. my hairs naturally wavy when it's short, and extremely curly when its long. when i wear it short tho, i usually like it real short, where it doesn't even look like i have wavy hair, but I wanna try to get the 360 so I guess I have to wear it longer.

It's great to have you on this forum, Gnarly Waves. Diversity is celebrated on HB and you give the Men's 360 Wave Forum an expanded outlook. You have the potential to be a great educational reference to the 360 wave community as we learn, together, about the intricacies of caucasian 360 waves.

so you guys aint never seen a white dude with waves? well, me neither i don't think. but like back in the 1930's some white guys wore wavy hairdo's. some of em looked kinda ugly, like they were tryin to do the style but couldn't, but there was some guys, like in movies and sh*t, it look like a damn ocean on their head. but i don't think they brushed tho. but, anywho, its cool to be apart of this diverse 360 wave forum lol. and im pretty sure im not italian, willie, and i still don't know what df mean.
