    Try putting your hair in a braid and sleeping with it. Undo your braid in the morning and you'll have wavy hair.

    If you have soft waves that are mostly straight, you can strengthen them by washing your hair less frequently. You should also avoid combing and brushing except with a fine-tooth comb. You can twist or clip it while it's wet to enhance the curls as well.

    Try applying a curl defining cream to keep the curls, and detangle by running your fingers through the hair instead of brushing.

    I had wavy hair, but I got a pixie cut and it turned pin straight even though my bangs are still as long as my hand from my wrist to tip of middle finger. What do I do to get my wavy hair back now?

    Just grow it out, your hair in a pixie wants to be straight. You can try scrunching with curl jelly with your hair upside down.
