Waves aren't just about brushing, honestly healthy hair is the primary way to get waves. Dudes put so much gunk in their hair and brush and expect to get waves.
Brush your hair correctly based and stay consistent with it.
It all depends on the hair, a medium brush is your friend. I wash my hair out every 2-3 days and brush while in the shower. Regular head and shoulders. On the days you don't wash your hair out get a hot damp rag and put it on your head for about 10-15 mins. And brush after. I only put pink lotion in my hair all that gunk is ridiculous for my hair. Stay consistent with the cap or rag when you sleep to lay it down
DONT BE AFRAID TO WOLF. I normally get a cut every 2 weeks but sometimes I go 3-4 and get lined up. You'll look like [emoji]128169[/emoji] for a couple days. Don't get cut up too much either your waves won't be deep.
After you wolf and get cut up use a soft brush not only for your tender almond joy head but it helps with the connection of the waves.
BE PATIENT, took me a year to really spin, wolfing now will post pics when I get that cut in a couple weeks.
