Hi, im a 17 year old hailing from van city can and my hairs currently about 5 inches on top and 3 in the back, but its really thick and wavy which forces me to wear that retched sticky stuff they call gel. I cant wait until it gets long enough to the point where it seizes to get big and i can easily exercise some control on it. Can anyone with this hair type let me know just how long it has to get (approx.) before i can see such results?
I dont really know. My hair sounds roughly the same as yours, what i do to flatten it down a bit and make look less puffy and big is to wear a hat - i wear a beanie that covers all the hair - for like 30mins or so. It works suprisingly well.
surf_boy7, S-17, how long is your guys' hair right now and does it get better with time or growth?
My hair is about 7 inches.I haven't notice any differences the last few months but definitely the cap helps.
After shower I wear a baseball cap for 80 mins and this seems to help a bit.
I would also like to know, I also have thick, wavy hair (some hairs are slightly curly) and I'll be at nine months at the end of this month (from a buzz) and i'm having a tough time but I hope it will get better. I don't use gel b/c I hate gel I just try to deal with it but it's very very hard.
When you can get it into a tail, things will get much better. Hang in there. I know you don't like gel, but it can make your life a whole lot easier until you get to tail length.
