You'll need a Comb, Three Brushes (Soft,Med,Hard) they all will come in handy
I use to use Pink Lotion + 360 wave grease. Olive cream use to have my hair feeling and laying down smooth as hell.
Murray's is cool but it use to dry my hair out to much.
I use to brush each side of my head 50 times each. If that's to much than just do 30 strokes EVERY HOUR. Time and dedication breh.
Make sure your using a Good shampoo.
Wash your hair ONCE a week
I use to wolf 4-8 weeks. Since your just starting, I could do 4 weeks.
When I was wolfing i would keep a line up every two weeks just to keep it looking fresh.
Any more questions?
