How to Get Waves in 5 Minutes

Let’s be real, getting 360 waves takes time, but if you only have 5 minutes, there’s still a way to make progress. This quick routine won’t give you elite connections overnight, but it’ll keep your pattern tight and help you stay consistent 💪

Step 1: Use a Hot Towel to Soften Your Hair

Start by soaking a towel in hot water, wringing it out, and placing it over your head for about 30 to 60 seconds. This softens your hair, opens up the pores, and preps your scalp to absorb product properly. It’s a fast way to get your hair ready for brushing.

Step 2: Apply a Light Moisturizer or Pomade

Use a small amount of moisturizer or wave-friendly product. You’re not trying to drench your hair, just enough to keep it soft and manageable. Look for products like curl-enhancing creams, leave-ins, or light wave pomades. Apply it evenly and avoid greasy buildup.

Step 3: Brush with Intention

This is where the magic happens. Spend 3 solid minutes brushing with a soft or medium brush. Stick to the same angles every time: forward from the crown on top, downward at an angle on the sides, and straight down in the back. Keep it focused. Every stroke trains your wave pattern.

Step 4: Lock in the Progress

Finish off by throwing on a silky durag or a compression wave cap. Even 15 minutes of compression helps your waves set better. If you’re heading out, rock the durag until you’re ready. If you’re chilling at home, keep it on for as long as possible 🧢

You might not get spinning waves in five minutes, but you’ll definitely be training your pattern. Consistency turns those quick routines into real progress.
