• Pomade. It  will help for your waves’ formation.
• Durag or stocking cap made of satin or silk. Your du-rag should snugly fit over your head. This is required to secure the hair and protect it while you sleep.

2. The Wash & Style Approach 

• Use wave shampoo to wash your hair. There are commercial shampoos on the market designed especially for males who want to achieve wave styles. You can use regular shampoo or even soap if you don’t want to use wave shampoo. It is possible to get waves without using a specific shampoo.
• Create a brushing regimen. After washing and conditioning your hair in the shower and stepping out, apply a small amount of lotion or pomade to your hair and brush it outward from the top of your head.
• Additionally, you should brush the top of your head in the direction of your eyes and the sides of your face in the direction of your chin.
• Brush the hair on the back of your head down and toward your neck beginning at the crown. Imagine that your head’s crown contains a tiny circle.
• Brush the hairline radially outward while going around the circle in a clockwise direction.
• Brush uniformly. Many people claim that the waves in the back are absent. That indicates that the back of your hair needs to be brushed more frequently. Check the back area in a mirror to make sure it is styled the way you desire. At the back of the head, where natural curls are typically strongest, extra care may be required.
• After brushing your hair, apply the du-rag. This will aid in stabilizing the wave. Ensure that it is snug but not too snug. At least 30 minutes should pass with the du-rag still on your head. 
• Before going to bed, don’t forget to put the durag on to help the formation of waves.

3. Keeping your waves up

Be willing to commit.

• Training your hair is the key to getting the results you want, and it takes regular work. Knowing that there is a commitment involved in learning how to get 360 waves is the most important step. You won’t be able to achieve the results you want unless you’re prepared to devote a significant amount of time to your hair.
• Maintain your haircuts. Keep in mind to get your hair cut at least every two to four weeks, but leave enough length for curls to form.
• Don’t dry it out. The key to gorgeous waves is to keep your hair moisturized.
• Put on a silk durag and then brush your hair. This shields your hair from nighttime rubbing across the pillow.
• The frequency : at least three times a day, brush your hair at least four times on each side. Your hair will be teased into place with a brush.
• While you are creating your 360-degree waves, rinse rather than wash your hair. Rinse your hair with warm water to help make it more flexible. Weekly hair washings with wave shampoo and conditioner are recommended.

It’s possible that you need to brush more if you’re having problems catching the waves.
