There is no doubt that a man's hair is an important part of his overall appearance. There is so much to consider – style, length, when to cut it, what products to use – that it can sometimes be overwhelming.
However, we are here to help with hair care tips for men.
We'll cover everything from how to take daily hair care, to how to improve hair
quality, and what to do (and what not to do) when you let your hair grow out.
In the end, we think you'll have enough knowledge to make
your daily hair care routine more effective than ever.
Best Hair Care Tips for Beginners
1. Drying your hair the right way
If you're like many men, you get out of the shower after
washing and/or conditioning your hair and rub it vigorously with a towel to
help dry it. Do not do this.
The fact is, your hair is more susceptible to damage when
it's wet, and rubbing wet hair with a towel causes some of the hair to get
caught in the towel's threads and stretch the hair past the breaking point.
This, in turn, damages the outer layers of the hair, causing split ends and
frizziness.
Instead, pat your hair dry by gently stroking it in the
direction of growth after removing excess water.
You also need to be careful when blow drying your hair.
Honestly, the best way to dry your hair is to air dry it, but on days when
you're short on time, a blow dryer might be your best option. Some important
things to remember when using a hair dryer are to use the lowest heat settings
possible, and to always leave your hair slightly wet to ensure you're not
drying it too much.
2. Stay comfortable in the heat
We just talked about using a low heat setting if you have
to blow dry your hair, turning down any heat is a general rule of thumb for the
typical men's hair care routine.
There's nothing better than a hot shower, especially when
the temperature outside drops below zero, but hot water wreaks havoc on your
hair as it strips away a lot of essential oils from your hair and scalp,
leading to dryness.
Once more, the most ideal way to dry your hair is to
allow it to air dry. If you use a hairdryer, turn the heat down to low and
leave your hair slightly wet so you're not tempted to over-dry it.
3. Wear hats sparingly
Sometimes you just want to wear a hat but don't overdo
it. Tight hats can damage hair and cause hair loss because they pull too
forcefully on the hair roots. If possible, wear a loose-fitting hat.
4. Never comb your hair
Okay, so your hair is thinning on top while still having
plenty of volume on the sides. Please don't make the terrible decision to cover
the bare spots on top of your head with a comb. This is never a good look and
may remind people of that creepy uncle who keeps showing up at their family
reunions. And most women will run from a man with a comb – he will run faster. Help
yourself out and get a hair style that suits your diminishing style.
Hopefully these tips will help you get the hairstyle look
you want, but most importantly, they will help keep your hair as healthy as
possible. Like anything more, solid, sound hair is accomplished through
reliable exertion and the right information.
5. Don't overuse products
There's nothing wrong with using hair gels, waxes, and
even hairspray to get the style and look you want. But, using too much product can
make your hair look unnatural and heavy, so use only as much as you really need
rather than applying too much.
Here's a quick primer on hair products that can help you
choose the right option for your hair type:
• Gel - gives you a wet look that stays set up. This is a
high shine, high hold product.
• Putty – Putty has high grip, low shine and is not as
hard as gel.
• Wax – There is no doubt that wax keeps your hair in
place. It is difficult to remove it from your hair because it is oil based.
• Pomade – Pomade is great for achieving a retro look and
also has high shine. Pomades have less hold than other products.
• Paste – If you have medium to long hair then paste is a
good option for you. These usually have medium shine and hold.
• Clay and clay – Because clay and soil are drier than
other products for men's hair, they tend to have less shine. Clay and clay
soils range from low to high holding and everything in between.
• Ocean Salt Splash - Ocean salt shower is an incredible
choice for accomplishing finished, matte hair that is accessible and moves
normally.
6. Rinse, but don't repeat
A big myth about washing your hair is that you have to
shampoo it, rinse it, and then repeat the process all over again. Not only is
washing twice unnecessary, but it can also dry out your hair.
Hair Tips for Different Hair Types and Styles
7. Growing Long Hair: A Guide
Deciding to grow your hair longer is not much different
from deciding to grow a full beard, that is, you need time, patience, and an
idea of what you want. Let's break it down and take a closer look; You may also
want to watch our video to better understand what we're talking about.
Have a plan
Take an honest look at your reasons for growing long hair
and your goals. It's a commitment, as well as something that should fit into
your lifestyle. You also need to make sure you have extra time for your care
routine, as long hair requires a little more time to maintain than short hair.
Stay strong
One of the best things you can do when growing long hair
is to embrace it. By this we mean stay committed to the process, even if your
hair looks bad as it grows out. When you wake up, it will be morning and no
matter what you do, it will feel bad. Short hair is very easy to
"train", but with long hair you have to endure those moments of
irritation when your hair is of different lengths.
It's a lot like growing a beard. There will be moments in
the process when you will want to delete it because of the way it looks, but
staying on track during the tough times is always beneficial in the end. How
long should you let it grow? Ideally, if you want really long hair, you should
give your hair about a year of growth before deciding your next step. Your hair
will go through several stages during this time, so be patient.
When you're growing out your hair it's like a new look
every month and the ability to train it completely disappears, as we discuss in
our hair growing video.
This doesn't always have to be a hassle, because one of
the beauties of growing your hair out is that you can try so many things – like
ponytails – and play with them during the process.
Have the right equipment
Whether you're working on a car, doing a DIY project
around the house, or taking care of your hair while you grow it out, it's
important to invest in good tools. A wide-tooth comb is a good hair care tool,
as is a natural bristle hairbrush. If you're going the ponytail route, buy
cloth-wrapped bands to keep things in place as they're more gentle on the hair.
Keep the right product
A $3 bottle of shampoo from your local drugstore is fine
when you have short hair or a buzz cut, however, we still recommend using the
high-quality stuff. But when you have short hair, any damage caused by cheap
shampoo is outweighed by the fact that you're going to be cutting your hair in
a matter of weeks.
On the other hand, if you have long hair or are in the
process of growing them out, using a lower quality shampoo, which is less
gentle on the hair, is not the best idea. Cheap shampoos will cause split ends,
frizziness, and dryness because they will strip your scalp of sebum – your
scalp's natural oil.
It's also important to find a shampoo that's right for
your hair type, whether it's oily, dry, or in between. If you're not sure,
don't hesitate to ask your barber or stylist.
Another helpful tool for many men is hair oil, which
helps prevent frizz. Simply work a little onto the roots of your hair and
distribute it evenly over your head. However, a word of caution about oil. Make
sure you read the label carefully to make sure it contains all-natural
ingredients. Some companies use non-natural ingredients like silicone that can
damage your hair. However, in general, hair oil is a phenomenal apparatus to
have in your preparing pack in the event that you have dry or bunched up hair.
Wash it
After finding the right shampoo and conditioner for your
hair type, it's time to wash your hair. It's a good idea to use a wide-tooth
comb to get rid of any tangles before stepping into the shower and when getting
out of the shower. Wet your hair with warm – not hot – water and then gently
work the shampoo into your hair for a few minutes, then rinse out. Next, apply
your conditioner, which you leave on for a few minutes before rinsing with
(ideally) cool water.
There is a lot of debate over how often you should wash
your hair. One school of thought says that washing daily will eventually dry
out your hair, but when you're growing out your hair you may want to wash it
more often. In any case, you'll want to cut back a bit on how often you wash
your hair and always use a mild shampoo.
Dry it
We've already touched on drying your hair a little bit
and the same basic rules for long hair that apply to all lengths and types of
hair: 1) Dry your hair by rubbing it with a towel. There is a possibility of
loss; 2) Pat your hair dry or air-dry instead; 3) Be careful not to overdo it
with the hairdryer, so keep the heat low and your hair should be slightly wet
when you're finished.
Avoid too much sunlight
We all know how much exposure to the sun's harmful UV
rays can damage the skin, but it can also damage your hair. The good news is
that there are a variety of hair products, including shampoos and conditioners,
designed to protect your hair from the sun.
Protect your hair from chlorine
The chlorine found in swimming pools can easily dry out
your hair and make it brittle. But you can protect your hair by wetting it with
regular water first – and then applying a light conditioner before a refreshing
shower.
8. Know your scalp type
It is extremely important to know your scalp type before
purchasing hair products like shampoo and conditioner.
Oily scalp
There is nothing complicated here; If your hair often
feels oily or sticky then your scalp is oily. You've likely tried a variety of
shampoos to reduce greasiness, but some things to keep in mind when you're
considering your purchase include avoiding shampoos that are labeled as
moisturizing or hydrating. While choose shampoos that are labeled as
"strengthening agents." "Balance," or "daily
clarification." You should also make sure you work your shampoo deep into
your scalp to help break up excess oil.
Dry scalp
Dry scalp is the type that often feels dry and itchy and
prone to dandruff. But there are different levels of dry scalp and you should
buy shampoo and conditioner accordingly. In the event that you have minor
dryness, a cleanser that advances dampness and hydration will help.
If your scalp is extremely dry, it's a good idea to look
for ingredients like tea tree oil, which has extensive moisturizing properties.
If you have dry scalp, you don't want to buy shampoos that are labeled as
'strengthening', 'strengthening' or 'volumising' on the label.
Normal skull
If your scalp is normal then it is good for you. This
means that your hair is generally easy to manage, has the right amount of oil,
and you don't have to overcomplicate things when shopping for products. Your
primary mission is to find a shampoo that has a balance between moisturizing
and cleansing.
9. Hair Care Tips for Black Men
Be that as it may, African-American men need to follow a
somewhat unique daily practice to keep their hair sound and it its ideal to
look. Here are some tips to follow:
Shampoo less often
Perhaps the biggest reason for less shampooing is a
chemical called sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) found in most off-the-shelf
shampoos. SLS strips your scalp of its natural oils – the oils that help
protect your hair. The result is that the hair becomes dry and brittle.
Numerous specialists suggest shampooing just two times
every week (with a cleanser that doesn't contain SLS). Look for shampoos that
contain natural oils and other ingredients that hydrate your scalp and hair.
Moisturize frequently
Although you may want to reduce shampooing, you should
still moisturize your hair daily. Why? Because your hair becomes dry during the
day, whether it's due to indoor heating in the winter or wearing a hat in the
spring and summer.
Whichever moisturizing product you choose, be sure to
massage it evenly throughout the scalp and hair to get the best results.
Style accordingly
A low-maintenance hairstyle often works best for several
reasons, including that it will save you time while still looking good. But,
you never know when you'll find a look you really like.
Choose the right product
Avoid products that contain alcohol, mineral oil or
petrolatum – which work well to hold your style but can dry out your hair. Look
for products with natural ingredients.
Use the right comb
Always have the right tools at hand when caring for your
hands, the most important of which is using the right comb. So, invest in a
good African comb as it has specially designed teeth that can detangle frizzy
hair better than other combs or brushes.
10. Smooth hair gets easier to notice
It's a natural reaction to want to get all the oil out of
your greasy hair by scrubbing it with the strength of an MMA fighter. Do not do
this. Excessive rubbing stimulates oil-producing sebaceous glands that are
already quite active. Another tip for caring for sticky hair – or for all hair
types, is to avoid washing them with extremely hot water.
Barber Shop and Trimming Tips
11. Trim your hair regularly
Unless your goal is to grow long hair, it is wise to keep
getting your hair trimmed as this is the best way to get rid of damaged hair
such as split ends. You should trim your hair every six to eight weeks, even if
it's a light trim. You'll be amazed at how healthy your hair looks after a
simple cut. However, whatever you do, don't believe the old adage that your
hair will grow stronger and thicker if you cut it. It's an old wives' tale
that's really BS, so don't get a haircut because you think you'll be able to
grow thicker hair because of it.
12. Simplify chemical treatments
Whether coloring your hair or getting a perm, chemical
treatments can leave your hair dry, damaged and lifeless. So, first of all, do
not overdo those treatments, but also avoid home remedies and instead seek the
services of a good stylist. An educated stylist or beautician will
know how to set up your hair and what items are best for your hair type. Plus,
the results you'll get from a professional will almost always look better than
the results you'll get by doing it yourself.
13. Get your hair cut at the right time
By "right time" we don't mean some mythical exact
day when you should get your hair cut, but rather what time of day you schedule
an appointment with your barber or stylist. Most salons and shops are quieter
at the beginning and end of each day, which increases your chances of getting
your barber's full attention.
14. Know your barber
Professional barbers and stylists are abundant, but when
you find one you like, make it a valuable resource for all things hair. One way
you can know you have a good barber is that they will take the time to talk
about what you want while making suggestions based on your goals and hair type.
You'll want your barber to recommend products and styling tips that will help
you achieve the look achieved by their craft. But you also want to come armed
with information, whether it's photos taken with your phone or what styles you
like from magazines, etc.
Tips on Using Hair Products
15. Don't forget about hairspray
It wasn't that long ago that hairspray was only used by
women, at least on a regular basis. But hairspray is a very underrated and
effective grooming tool for men too, and it's something you should consider
using in the same way as waxes, pomades, gels, clays, etc.
The good news is that many of today's hairsprays contain
ingredients that are good for your hair, unlike the chemical-laden sprays of
yesteryear. Additionally, sprays are not as heavy as waxes and gels and many
men prefer their lightness. If you're a man with thin hair, using hairspray is
a great way to add volume, while men with thicker hair, who may face styling
challenges, appreciate the hold that hairspray provides.
16. Use clarifying shampoo
The products you apply to your hair over time can build
up and make your hair look dull and lifeless. But a good clarifying shampoo
will get rid of the build-up and make your hair shine. You can also use white
vinegar to rinse hair as it helps balance the pH level.
17. Use egg conditioner
What to say? Yes, an egg conditioner. Why? Because eggs
are rich in protein and essential minerals that your hair absolutely needs.
Therefore, give your hair an egg wash/conditioning treatment once a month. Let
the egg wash penetrate deep into your scalp as it will strengthen the hair
follicles from the inside out.
18. Here's a way to remove wax
If you're someone who uses hair wax regularly, chances
are you love the way it makes your hair look, but washing your hair can be a
pain in the ass. As stated, apply shampoo to dry hair and then rinse; By doing
this the wax will break and it will become easier to come out. Repeat the
process if necessary.
19. Carry a comb with you
Even if you're using the strongest hold products known to
mankind, it's still hard to keep your hair looking exactly the way you want it
all day long. Although it's hard to keep your favorite hair products with you all
the time, a comb is your next best friend. Wetting the comb and touching up
your hairstyle not only makes your hair look cleaner, but also reactivates most
styling products.
20. Center less around cleanser and more on conditioner
As mentioned, there is a lot of debate over whether
people should shampoo every day. Reading the opinions of many experts makes you
realize that less is more as over shampooing can make your hair dry and
brittle. This is especially true for shampoos that contain high levels of
detergents and sulphates which strip the natural oils from your scalp and hair.
If your hair is naturally oily and can appear sticky, you
may be resistant to shampooing only occasionally. However, in many cases, it's
not a big deal and the natural oil is good for your hair. But it is up to each
individual as to how often they need to shampoo. However, as a general rule,
try not to shampoo your hair every day.
On the other hand, it's fine to use a good conditioner
every day (called co-washing) because it reduces split ends, tangles, and
breakage, and it doesn't strip your hair of all its natural oils; In fact, it
replenishes the washed-out oil and keeps your hair moisturized. When you buy
conditioner, look for conditioners that don't contain wax as they can make your
hair look thinner.
Lesser Known Hair Care Tips

relaxes the muscles, and helps keep the scalp supple. Is. Using your fingers,

circular motion. Avoid pulling hair in any way. Do this massage for three or
four minutes.
• The biggest cause of dry scalp is shampooing and
washing your hair with too hot water. Hot water strips away essential oils from
the scalp and skin and causes excessive dryness. Instead wash your hair with
lukewarm water as you will retain those essential oils. Additionally, excessive
hair drying can also lead to dry scalp.

the side of your head where your crown is located because that's where you'll
find your natural part.
