Aight I was thinkin about the differences between a hard brush and a soft brush and I got 2 thinkin about this. It would take a longer time 2 get waves usin a softy than it would usin a hard brush. The hard brush gets u waves faster bcuz the pull on yo hair is greater than it is while usin a softy or a medium. A hard brush can help straighten out curls when u wolfin, but a comb works better. So i'm thinkin a comb has a greater pull on hair than a hard brush dependin on the space between the teeth of the comb. I know u have 2 brush yo hair after u comb bcuz the combing makes yo hair stand up. So would a person get waves faster if they were to let their hair get longer so it curls more, then start combing it, brush it with a softy 2 lay their hair down, and then durag up?
This sounds pretty accurate 2 me, but I wanna hear what all of u have 2 say about it. Correct me If i'm wrong in any way.

At first you would have to brush because a comb wouldnt be able to be very effective until the hair is trained after your hair is trained then you can start using the comb to "stretch" the waves out. -------------

I figured this out because for example if you didnt have waves never had em before and you try to comb your waves in it wouldnt work because your hair isn't trained to lay down I used to comb my hair everyday when I was a kid and it didnt get me any waves. -------------

LOL I did I had bad experiences wit it tho. my daddy used 2 make me brush my hair when I was like 8 LOL. I had waves on the top, but nowhere else. I didnt like brushin so 1 day he got mad and did it 4 me. He used 1 of da hardest brushes I ever felt and brushed my head until it bled(not intentionally tho). ------------- |

Thats true my dominican friend he has the same kind of hair as me and he had a lil fro and he said he wanted waves I went to the corner store I needed a heavy pomade so I went and bought him the gold can of you know what. So I made him soak his hair out with some lukewarm-light hot water and I brushed it out for him his hair was getting flat but it wasnt laying down for him so we repeated it about 5 more times and that shyt started to wave out I had this nicca spinnin first shot I then got the gold can and spread it in his head and made him tie his durag 2 hours later that lil nicca was almost stuntin like me! So the point is it can be really easy for some to get waves with mad hair but not all especially if they hair nappy as hell.
Note: This kid has never had waves before I set him up. -------------

I could brush all day my sh*t wouldnt do that...But maybe if i picked it out with a comb.. I got the type hair that wouldnt grow up..it would just roll up..a CM off my scalp and continue..had like an inch of hair you woulda never notice..but it's too late for me to try this meth cause my hair laid down now. Another day. if i get scalped ill try it out -------------
