O.K. you know how ppl complain about when they wash their hair immidiatly after a cut (like between 1-2 & Half days after da cut) that they lose visability of their waves... well i wondered if you applyed pomade like az soon az you got home and du-raged and waited till the next day to wash ur hair and wash it out would the visibilty still be there??? (Ima try this after my fresh cut next saturday...)

If your wave pattern is deeply set then you can wash your hair right after a haircut with minimal detrimental effects. Your waves should come back in after a vigorous brushing session. I still don't recommend this. But, if your wave pattern isn't deeply set, it doesn't matter what you put in your hair, you waves are going to lose some visibility after washing.

Read below for tips.

I don't recommend washing your hair after you get a haircut. There are two main reasons why I say this. First, you should wash your hair before you get a cut so that it is clean and free of products. Since you should wash your hair prior to your cut, washing it afterwards is redundant and pulls out more of your hair's natural oils that its trying to reproduce. That's also why I don't recommend over-washing. Second, by not washing your hair right after you get a cut, you allow your haircut and your new length wave pattern to set in. This is especially true if you do not have a strong base wave pattern. Even if you have a strong wave pattern, you will lose some defintion if you immediately wash your hair after a cut. I recommend brushing off the loose hairs with a soft brush, adding a moisturizer or small amount of pomade, if desired, followed by brushing and putting on a durag or wave cap, if possible. After a couple of days, your hair cut and its pattern should be set and then it should be okay to wash. Also, note that you should use warm to semi-hot water, but not scolding hot, to wash your hair. The warm to semi-hot water opens your hair's pores and allows your hair follicles and attached strands to relax causing your waves to lay down better while shower brushing. It the same concept that spas use for opening up your face's pores when they place a warm towel on it. After you finish shower brushing apply a small amount of cool water to your head to allow your pores to re-close. Then apply a moisturizer or pomade, if needed, and continue brushing.
Remember: After a haircut, be in a rush to brush, but don't prematurely wash.

I concur with you guys. I wash my scalp the same day that I get a cut. If your pattern runs deep you shouldn't have any problems. Just brush and you'll be good.
STOP WALKING AROUND WITH A DIRTY A$$ SCALP!!!!!!!!

What I will say is that after a cut, my waves don't look the same as it did when I got it cut
