There's no science to it. I had that grown out, messy hair look for about three years (I buzzed it last month though haha) and the key is to play up what your hair naturally does. Stop getting haircuts for couple of months and see what happens. If you find out your hair starts to curl out when it gets longer, let it, maybe it's straight and you just flip it to the side. Rub your hands through it so it doesn't look all pretty and perfect. From your pictures you seem like you'd look good with longer hair. Don't try and force it to do something it doesn't want, the hair will win.

I'm not exactly sure what you meant by just "shagged" out but I hope I helped out. Have fun looking like a complete badass.

I think it should be easy for you to grow shaggy hair

and it should be natural

ur hair is wavy so it should get shaggy as it grows longer

just grow your hair out, it'll take time

once u grow it out, you can just like it air dry

my friends who have shaggy hair don't brush it after it dries

I would use a serum to make hair softer, but that also depends on if u like that

Use natural shampoo from Trader Joe's....(or any shampoo that doesn't have alcohol) and just let it grow out. It might take a year or two depending on how fast your hair grows.
