Lol, this one gave me laugh (tank top). Washing your hair shouldn't make them dissapear. I really dunno about when ask if they hair can get waves w/o a picture of there actual hair. ------------- |

imma try and get me a diggy for some pics soon. my hair grows weird, i can see the individual strands but they stick to my head and grow backwards toward my neck kinda like little snakes. o and dont be hatin on the homemade rag that ****s gangsta and you can customize it to your head. it gets tighter then a rag or a stockin cap.i think i can get waves cus my hair aint nappy but when i do wear a stockin cap my hair dont stick through like a white boys would. no what im sayin. like when you see those white boys rockin the rag and they look like a****in chia pet. but i donno ill post a pic soon. 1 love ------------- smoked out |

yo i got my waves right now but they aint like yours. instead of the waves that go horizontal like lines like you got my waves go from the fron to the back vertical. i cant get them on the sides but i keep it faded on the sides anyways so i dont give a****. i think its cus my hair aint that nappy so my waves look more like snakes runnin through my hair. **** looks gangsta though i think it suits me betta. ill post pics soon as a get a diggi. 1 ------------- smoked out |

I like murrays (put a alot than melt the **** down than it will be shiny but its very dry.) The #1 thing to dry yo **** down is to just Sportn wave gold can.. that **** makes my hair dry and flaky when i brush it. Im kind of pissed at my waves lol, they aint showing up with the sportn ****. My **** look tight with murrays in it but i havent used it in ALONG time. I ben using Carrot Oil by poisen and its aite but i like murrays the best. This summer im going to get some clippers and learn how to cut my own hair you kno. Do u cut yo **** yoself or barber. That way i can keep my **** kind of low but not skin and have my waves lookin tight. ------------- |

aint that **** greasy though? my hair is greasy enough. when you put it in does it feel dry or greasy? i wanna dry the**** out my hair. right now it sparkles unda the sun, the hunnies like it but i wana more dry look, so it looks nappy, thing that pisses me off is i look black but since my hair aint nappy everyone just assumes im latino. i dunno ill try that **** though. o and i cut my hair myself. it aint hard once you been cuttin it for a while. the only hard part is fadin the back cus you gotta hold the clippas in one hand and a mirror in the otha then do it in a mirror. i usually just do most of it myself then have one of my boys cut the back. id go to a barber but i love lining up my own hair cus i be doin that **** precise. ------------- smoked out |

Da Sportin Waves pomade is tight on gettin your waves spinnin. I used it until i saw my waves coming in, then i just used some natural grease since that Sportin waves dries the **** out of your hair. ------------- |
