February Waver Of The Month: Freshtolife11

2009-03-03T18:30:00.001-06:00

February was a great month, even though it is the shortest of all. Especially because it's Black History Month (not like anyone treated it like that). With that being said, here's a strong black man around 21 years young doing his thing! He's out of college with his degree and is showing how the black man can do anything that they put their mind to; making others that came before us proud to have fought for our education rights. He's freshtolife, not death. This man is live! Enough of my rambling though, here he his!

Congratulations to Freshtolife!

Exclusively, Freshtolife has a shot at the Number 10 Spot of the Top 10!

360 Interviews

2009-01-29T09:18:00.001-06:00

Here at 360waves.net/forum we take often time lose focus of what the site is all about. We have a very diverse culture of people, and we sometimes lose the focus of the site, and that’s waving. I’ve taken a survey of some of our premiere wavers, and they had this to say.

Twista, the site creator, as well as admin; had this to say.

Q. What made you interested in waving?
A. Some kid @ high school back in like 2004 near 2005. I always wondered how I could get waves like him. I asked girls @ school if they knew. I never knew waves were about texture because I set on getting a specific type of waves just like that boy.

Q. Who is the first person you saw, whether online, TV, or in real life; with waves.
A. A older boy in high school.

Q. Do you have any influences, again whether online, TV, or real life.
A. Only on here. My influences are people with nice waves on this website. I never see any good wavers on the street

Q. What do you think is the key in attaining next level waves?
A. Proper brushing and dedication to this game we call 360 waves. 360 waves will always be top. Not 720 waves or anything people trying to make up.

Q. What products do you use?
A. I haven’t waved in awhile, but when I did. Murrays pomade and pink oil

Q. Do you use those products because someone told you to, or because you've found them to work best for you hair?
A. I used these because I started back in 2005 when there was no wave help online. I just found what worked for me; even if it wasn't the best I had waves in 2005.

Southrap, a dedicated member, and top waver, had this to say

Q. What made you interested in waving?

A. Well, a couple of my boys were talking about waves and after really paying attention to their waves; I caught an interest and started brushing

Q. Who is the first person you saw, whether online, TV, or in real life; with waves.

A. My boy Big E had some pretty nice waves, they were micros, too.

Q. Do you have any influences, again whether online, TV, or real life.

A. There's a whole list of people, I guess the reason I come to this site everyday is to keep me motivated to continue waving

Q. What do you think is the key in attaining next level waves?

A. Wolfing longer than you usually do, consistent brushing, proper du-ragging, and patience

Q. What products do you use?

A. Right now, olive crème and Murray’s super light. I think my next wolfing session's going to be carrot crème and Murray’s super light

Q. Do you use those products because someone told you to, or because you've found them to work best for you hair?

A. I'm using these products right now because my hair was thinning bad and using carrot crème and olive crème helped my hair become thicker. I still have Murray’s super light pomade because of the shine and how slick it makes my hair, perfect for those special occasions.

Supreme, a dedicated member, and Wave Section Moderator, had this to say.

Q. What made you interested in waving?

A. Ever since I was a little kid I had always wanted waves. My father had them on the top and I was obsessed with them since then.

Q. Who is the first person you saw, whether online, TV, or in real life; with waves.

A. The first person was obviously my father, ha-ha.

Q. Do you have any influences, again whether online, TV, or real life.

A. The person that REALLY influenced me to start waving is JQRS a.k.a. Big Ju. The only influence and motivation I have now is myself and my old pictures.

Q. What do you think is the key in attaining next level waves?

A. I have the key. You have the key. We ALL have the key. Your head, a brush, a will to grow your hair, and most important of all patience. Those four components are what graft the key of next level waving.

Q. What products do you use?

A. I currently am using Olive Crème, and I must say this is a great product. My favorite products are Indian Hemp, Pink Lotion, and Carrot Crème.

Q. Do you use those products because someone told you to, or because you've found them to work best for you hair?

A. I've used these products because I've heard of them, NOT because someone else told me

to use them. Trial and error is the only way you will find out if a product works best for your hair, not just because other people say it is great.

- -Emcee Territory- - (01/27/09)

2009-01-27T13:51:00.017-06:00

--Emcee Territory-- Emcee's of 360 it time to start afresh. The Emcee section is packed with new features and events most notably, 360 Crews 09 . As you all know my friend and new co-mod Reggie has out shined folks for a min now, its no surprise that he is putting in work for the section as we speak. The Emcee section has many classic features like Diss Tha Emcee Above You... , a thread where emcee's exchange words with the person that posted directly above them (meaning the person who rapped before them). The Lab , a thread where Emcee's prefect there flow, rhythm, rhyme scheme and overall effectiveness through posting quick 16's (16 bars or 16 lines) mostly focusing on punches. Lastly we have a thread called the Cypher 09: The Countdown.. To The Growth , where Emcee can rap about anything their heart's desire. The Emcee section is packed with all kinds of Emcee's whether its the graceful poetics of Mike Ferguson, Mrs. Officer, Evolve Black, Casanova or Hollywood Waves, or the battling skills of a Tunde2010, ItzReggie(fellow mod), Big Finesse the God MC or the Street conscious lyrics of Young Hu$tla and myself.

Do u feel like u have audio tracks u want the world to hear? post them on here Audioz
Do u feel like u have poems that could reach a generation? post them on here -- Da Poetry Box
Do u believe u can take on 360's emcee's with your battling skills? visit EmCee Call Outz Hood and Battle 4 Da ToP .

***VERY IMPORTANT-EMCEE'S MAKE SURE TO COMMENT ON OTHER WORKS, BECAUSE THE EMCEE SECTION IS A COMMUNITY NOT A PLACE FOR ISOLATIONIST.

Waver Of The Month: Trackflow

2009-01-27T02:04:00.010-06:00

Trackflow

Well guys, here you have it. The very first Waver Of The Month! I have to say that this guy really deserves it. He has really progressed over the months and has proven himself by making onto the Top 10 Of 2008 list. These last few updates have really surprised me and others, blowing us out of the water. This is by far his smoothest update! Enough talking though, you know who he is. Congratulations Trackflow! You're the first ever Waver Of The Month!

Maybe next month a waver NOT on the Top 10 will win Waver Of The Month. Until that time comes, keep the updates flowing. Be on the lookout for some major updates in the month of February. Even I might be dropping a bomb on you guys ;)

Survivor Series 2009

2009-01-26T16:57:00.001-06:00

It would consist of 16wavers, im basically stealing the concept from WWE. There are 3 rounds in the survivor series of battles (its all abstract right now).

Basically the first 16 well 15 wavers who want to enter will be in it. Once we have 16 wavers who want to battle I'll see who will battle who (randomly of course). I figured since it's still early in the new year it would be fitting to have this March 21st (subject to change). If there are any suggestions to make this better please add them to the thread."

HERE's HOW IT WENT DOWN LAST YEAR

UPDATE FIRST ROUND BATTLES (BATTLES MADE RANDOMLY)

1. Sicc vs. DRtotheOWN

2. Epowell vs. Vellyvell

3. SupaFresh208 vs. 360 GOD

4. Discodwill vs. Dramattic

5. Warlord vs. Kapps

6. Southrap vs. Revolutionist

7. Omm vs. Wavehead

8. TheKidSkillz vs. Wavesboy

FROM HERE WE WILL DO AN NBA ................

Carrot Creme

2009-01-26T15:18:00.000-06:00

Information ::

Hollywood Beauty Carrot Creme can be purchased at most beauty supply stores and at Walgreens for approximately $3.

Description ::
Carrot Creme is a non-petrolatum based hair dressing that has been known to soften and moisturize hair while simultaniously holding hair in place, once dried, much like a pomade.

CARROT CREME PROS:

1. Carrot Creme makes your hair softer, which helps your wave achieve optimal spacing.

2. Carrot Creme can be remoistened w/ water, which means you only need to apply it once a dayinstead of repeatedly, like w/ oils.

3. Carrot Creme sticks in your hair instead of dissolving into your scalp like oil, so your hair stays nourished all day from one application.

4. Because there's not petroleum in CC, it rinses out easily and completely, unlike pomade.,

5. Carrot Creme has hold and may eliminate the need for petrolatum based pomades.

* Carrot Creme helped my waves to start forming the coveted "rings"/"saucers"/"disks" (the concentric circles that emanate from ones crown once your spinners connect properly.)

CARROT CREME CONS:

1. CC makes your hair dull, not shiny. (too much will make your hair look dried out, even though it'll still be soft.)

* I haven't discovered any other cons to Carrot Creme yet. It has really been helping to make my waves deeper and improve my softness and hair texture.
