Long Haired Men, How Do You Take Care of Your Hair?

It’s my first time growing out my hair. I currently almost have shoulder length hair.

Here’s my dilemma, I usually just stay home and don’t like using product when I’m not going out, my long hair falls down in front of my face blocking my eyes, even reaching my mouth and it’s extremely inconvenient.

I’ve tried using hair ties, but somebody said it eventually leads to a receding hairline.

I’ve also used headbands, but am looking for alternatives.


I’d also appreciate some advice when using product, because sometimes it still falls down and/or becomes flat and lack some volume.

My end goal is to have a slicked back hair.

    speaking of shampoo, what do you do if also have a dandruff problem.

    Sometimes if I don’t shampoo daily, I get a lot of dandruff.

      It’s hard to say because there’s lots of different causes of dandruff. You can have sebum build up, dry scalp, fungus stuff. If it’s sebum build up, the scalp massage can help as can shampoo that markets itself as scalp invigorating. But not stripping or cleansing if you can help it. It can also help dry scalp in conjunction with a moisturizing shampoo. You can always mix in something like a dandruff specific shampoo every few washes. But honestly, even though it sucks, finding a good stylist in your city and booking an appointment and indicating that you’d like to have a consultation beforehand can be a ton of help. It’ll be more expensive than just getting a cut but going forward you’ll know what you need and how to ask for it.
