For me it didn’t matter what I used, until I tried growing it out and trying long hair. Frizzy hair horrors, until I figured out what hair care process worked for me.

Jojoba oil and grapeseed oil are a game changer.

That's not true.

Dishwashing liquid? That’s just good bedhead.

Well, technically, good bedhead is something much more satisfying, but I hope y’all get my drift.

Apple cider vinegar is the trick

I never expected there were so many other long haired men here secretly dealing with hair issues! I thought I'd been dealing with this alone the last few years since I decided to stop buzzcutting myself. Now I wish we had a more active hair community. Not necessarily male only, as this post seems to show we have "human hair" and not "guy hair" or "girl hair."

Why do people put so much energy into projecting identity politics on a superfluous detail like hair? Who cares? It's all just a vanity concern, selfishly obsessed with what others think about how you look.

Does your hair make you have some intrinsic identity to others that you are or are not going for? Fuck you, I don't care.

Do you authentically care, yourself?

Maybe you care about the politics - I can understand that. There is legitimate fear around legislating serious, dangerous things to your identity (not hair). Why the fuck are you spending your time and energy on hair???

Do you care about your appearance in any capacity or do you just roll out of bed and go on with your day?

If so, why the fuck are you spending your time and energy on your appearance?

[–] Creddit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I do, of course. I even do my hair. I didn't mean to imply that one should not care about it hygienically, just for your own health and personal self image.

I just don't understand the urge to thrust gender identity onto hair style and then argue about what that means to the polity online.
