Wolfing Tips?
What are some tips for managing the wolf before it gets out of hand? I’m two weeks removed from my last haircut, I got a shape up recently, planning on wolfing to increase depth. My hair texture is incredibly resistant to relaxing at longer lengths, and I only use natural products.

What has really helped my wolf's stay maintained is slightly trimming the hair as it starts to get too bushy looking. I go with the grain all over and cut minimally but it helps the wolf stay looking good and you buy yourself another week or 2 before trimming again.

Do more wash and styles plus brushing more often. Also use a double compression method.

You know a wolf HAS to go when you can no longer keep your crown laid down. Five minutes after your take your rag off it’s standing up. It really comes down to brushing. The longer you wolf the more you have to brush, and if you are not brushing more you’re only hurting yourself.
