Doo Gro Products

I have been using this product called Doo gro. You can find it in most stores that sell hair products. It is a grease product that is supposed to thicken out your hair and also keep your scalp oiled. My review over the product: It is a nice smelling grease that does keep my hair moisturized,yet it is a bit too greasy, but it does seem to be darkening my hair a bit in some spots such as near my hairline where it is thinning a bit. I wouldn't recommend the product solely for waves because it wasn't created to be a great product to help with waves but it is useful if your hair is a bit thin and could be darkened a bit.

Recovering From a Scalpage

A scalping is when you get your hair cut too low for waves to exist. A scalping usually comes from when your barber cuts your hair wrong or some people even get scalped because they want to start over with the wave process to correct things they couldn't while wolfing. The best way to recover is to keep brushing and duragging. Brush with the soft brush while your hair is really short and make your way from the softy to the medium then to the hard again when your hair becomes thicker. When scalped,usually your wave pattern is still in your head so when your hair grows back you will begin to see your pattern come back. It often goes away if you didn't brush or if your wave pattern wasn't completely trained.

Dandruff & The Scalp

Dandruff is the clear indicator that you have a dry scalp.A dry scalp makes it much harder to get waves.Dandruff can be caused by washing hair too much and stripping it of its natural oils too much or not washing it enough.And it is also caused by not oiling/moisturizing the scalp.Waves will be more easier to obtain if your scalp is moisturized and soft so waves can be formed easier than having a dry hard scalp.


KEEP YOUR SCALP CLEAN AND MOISTURIZED but don't put too much grease or moisturizer because this can clog the pores in your scalp and cause acne.

Just be careful when using them!I cut my brothers hand open with one accidently.

A Good 360 Wave Vid

This video simply describes the h20 method which is a simple method used to get 360 waves.Simply spray ya hair and get it wet and brush it till its dry/damp.Hitting the hair up with the soft brush isn't completely necessary because the hard brush can help with connections as well but some people say soft brushes help with connections the best but I don't use a softy so "to each his own".

Shower Brushing Equals Instant Results

Shower brushing is just what it sounds like.It is brushing your hair wet while in the shower.I say this is very effective because the water makes your hair very soft while brushing(use a hard brush) and this effectively moves your hair and straightens out curls which forms the waves.I recommend doing like 4 minutes of shower brushing maybe 2 or 3 times a week.I don't recommend doing the h20 method if you've been wolfing for a long time since your hair will probably be hard to get laid back down.

Durags/Stocking Cap Necessary For Waves?

Well this is a common question that should be addressed."Are Durags and Wavecaps necessary for 360 waves?".The answer is no,they are not necessary but they can be helpful.Since most people often move around while they sleep your hair which may be still in training to lay down (An important part of waving is training your hair to lay down by simply brushing and duragging helps).So if your hair is still in training and it is getting shifted around while you sleep then your hair will not train properly to lay down and it will be harder to get waves.It is possible if you stay still at night on one side of your body and you don't mess your hair up TOO BAD that you can still train it and get it to wave up.If you already have waves and you do this then you can easily wake up and brush them and they'll look ok but it will require more brushing in the mornings for your waves to stay maintained.Certain durags and wavecaps can give you headaches so make sure you choose the correct soft ones that fit well for you.
