the heterosexual "How do you take care of your hair?" thread

[vikk]

i use this:

Loreal Elseve Shampoo and Conditioner Nutri-Gloss, for long hairs without energy. It makes my hair shiny and comfy





(note to fags who cut their hair: get the fuck out with yours "it's more practical mommy i can't handle how complicated is to wash a hair")

Brushing it twice a day

 

[Muffin]

I use

and

Though i fail at attending to my hair as i havent cut the ends for years, so its all frizzy and ghey I havent gotten around to getting it cut as i want it layered/leveled something, i hate that straight line cut look, and i'll rather look like an ass than do that myself, haha. I know a hairdressergurl that i'm gonna pester into giving me a decent cut though.

Oh and i ONLY brush my hair before i shower, never outside of that.

 

[TheKid]

<3 that's exactly what I use
and I brush after a shower, so basically every day.

[vikk]

forgot to mention that i wash every-other-day, as my Derm recommended me, and brush once after shower, and another wen it's dry

 

[Muffin]

Really? after shower?

I was told that was like >8( death because water(APPARENTLY i havent read a scientific report on this, just going by what angry haircutters tell me) makes hair loose like 50% or so of its stretchability, so it breaks waaaay easier after showering.

I should probably go for one after its dried too though, as it can start rolling up inside itself and go all >8(

I only use shampoo without sulfates and conditioner without silicones and stick with natural products (exception being hair styling products). Just a little bit coconut oil gives nice shine and healthy look when rubbed into dry hair. I only brush dry hair, I try to avoid blow drying and I never color my hair (but that's more because of my allergies than hair care).

Using this:

I wash it everyday and comb it afterwards - because I just can´t get through the curls when hair´s dry

Same here, though i don't have allergies though.. I have kinda wavey hair, and a fuckloads of it, i cant really imagine anything but my natural color on me. I think it would look reaaaally weird, unless i started working with all that goo people stuff in their hair, goo and straighteners.. Not for me

 

[vikk]

i brush after shower, because it gets too fucking messy, my hair is a bit wavy also.

I don't brush and let my dry naturally because I like it wavy and messy Brushing damp makes my hair too flat.

 

[children of COB]

Used to use that, but now I use Mercadona's (big supermarket chain that has it's own line of products) shampoo and conditioner. It's good. I brush my hair when I wake up, after the shower, when I go to bed and when I'm back home from going out because it stinks from smoke and stuff and I prefer to brush it before I go to bed. I need the morning and night brushes because if not my hair is a total fucking mess.

 

[flyingvman191]

I agree with Dreams_of_eternal_hate and TheKid, head and shoulders is pure win.

 

[The Emptier]

i use aussie shit, but i need to look into some better stuff. but after i shower i blow dry it/comb it so it stay pretty straight/nice all day, and i randomly comb it throughout the day because im obsessive about it

 

[flyingvman191]

I do that too, if im bored just randomly brush it.

Now, one thing i've noticed amongst metalfags, is that it's very common to see people with their hair tied back in like a ponytail about 99% of the time, some even have it like that at concerts.

Why?

Why the fuck grow hair if you're just gonna hide it behind your head like its not there? I seriously dont get this
I ONLY tie my hair back if i'm working inside a engine or if i'm in uniform/suit or shit like that..
Some guy i know said its because he gets REALLY hot behind his neck, hot and sweaty, i've never experienced this..

What are your guys view on this? How do you keep your hair?

 

[The Emptier]

mmmm its pretty 50/50 i have it down or in a ponytail, at work obviously ponytail it or if im bothered by my hair i'll put it up, idk it just depends on what look im going for.

Every time I buy shampoo and conditioner I change the product. It seems to be more effective that way. Right now I'm on one of my favorites. Garnier Fructis- Sleak & Shine haha. I also put a leave in conditioner in after pretty much every shower, and I only brush my hair after I shower 'cause otherwise it's too difficult to get the brush through. And I condition the shit out of it. I generally go through a bottle of conditioner twice as fast as a bottle of shampoo.

As far as how often I tie it back, I just tie it back if I'm working on something or if it's really fucking hot. 'Cause I do get whatever Muffin's friend was talking about. But only if it's real hot out.

Also, as many have said, I have sort of wavy hair and I wish it was straighter. And mine gets fluffy... Like it is flat against my head but expands out by the time it gets to my shoulders so sometimes it looks like I have a ghey pyramid hat on my head. Also, I'm terrified of going bald, so I'm probably gonna start taking Rogaine as a preventative soon, haha.

 

[Muffin]

I've actually grown so used to my hair being wavy, that i think i'd decline a opportunity to have it dead straight at this point.

Then again, i havent cut my hair in 5 years, which probably makes it easier to have when wavey, it just stays in plays and doesnt go all springy and up in ma grillz, it's pretty long now, so having it wavey is no bother at all.

Heck, it's like its got personality


And i dont know why im posting so much in this thread D: I think it's cause i NEVER EVER get to talk about hair shit with other guys
Having friends is for poseurs
