Short, wave-trained pattern encircling the head—culturally iconic and highly photogenic.
Features
- Close-cropped length (#1–#2) aligned to wave direction
- Requires wave brush, pomade, and a durag to set patterns
- Combines with low/mid/high fades; often paired with a crisp line up
Suitability
- Face: Broadly universal; wave flow and hairline set visual focus
- Hair: Curly/coily (Type 3–4) excels
- Occasions: Daily, street, sport, on-camera
Care
- Brush in consistent directions daily; durag overnight
- Use pomade/oil for slip and shine
- Light trims every 2–4 weeks to avoid cutting waves off
