Long hair general

No long hair general? Lets fix that.

If you have long hair or want to grow one, please join us. You can also share long hair care tips and how to style your hair through the awkward stage.

[Anonymous No.14584876]

A few tips:

Split ends are annoying as fuck. They're like a warning sign that your hair is dried out. Don't mess around with them because it will just create more of them. Instead try using conditioner or changing your shampoo to something less abrasive.

If you have curly or wavy hair it will look curlier/wavier and have more body when it's humid out. When it gets dry out, it will look straighter and flatter. If you want to combat this I recommend looking into curling creams.

I don't care if nopoo is a meme or not, you're gonna need to at least clean your hair more if you want it to look good.

If you have terrible dandruff, use Selsun Blue. Wash with Selsun Blue then use conditioner (especially in the winter; see above). I do Selsun Blue every other day.

You can develop "rats nests" (really fucking annoying big clumps of knots). To get them out, wet your hair, put some conditioner on it, and brush it out.

Invest in hair ties. You'll need them for shaving your face and keeping the hair out of your eyes.

Is argan oil a good way to keep your hair from getting knotted or drying out? I've been using it occasionally and it makes my hair feel great, but I'm just wondering if it makes your hair a bit more brittle in the long term

[Anonymous No.14585643]

>>14584915
Yes to both. It's nice oil but I wouldn't apply it daily in hefty amounts, only when needed and don't use organic shampoos to clean your hair while using argan oil.

Your own scalp oils and the argan oil will buildup and make your hair very greasy and possibly loose hair. Take it from my experience. Thick oil straight long hair here.

Also organic shampoo sucks ass. I think the coconut oil is the culprit.

Apparently it's liquid gold, has omega 3 and keratin protein which is tier god keys to amazing hair, minjmal frizz, smooth hair, thick and strong and works well in humidity :3 Which I live in a humid climate.

>>14584876
I agree wholeheartedly on the split ends. It literally makes the hair look healthier and smoother.

Selsun blue gives me a stench when I'm under the sun, like my hair is burning with the smell of the shampoo. How do you combat this? What do you think about T/Gel & T/Sal by Neutrogena? Do they work?

I've always found it the opposite. Short (and sometimes bald) needed daily shampoo to combat excess oils, while long hair is weekly shampooing with a rinse now and then.

Goals

[Anonymous No.14586262]

my hair has been what I can only assume to be very dry recently, and so thick its difficult to take my wide tooth comb or fingers through it. In the last few months I had to wear a hat some days for my part time job, so I was washing it more. I quit and Im back to my regular schedule, but its still dry. I didnt wash it this weekend and it got back to being more oily, but its back to being very dry after a condition and wash. Should I be washing less?

[Anonymous No.14586314]

>>14586003
I noticed that too. I've always wondered why.

[Anonymous No.14586425]

>>14584915 Haven't tried pure argan oil, but I do use Moroccan oil (which is argan oil but with other stuff in it) in the winter. So far it hasn't done me any harm, but it could be dependent on hair type.

>>14585678 I haven't tried T/Sal before. Ironically I've used T/Gel before and it's smelled fucking awful. I think it's fine, but you need to wash your hair really well to get the smell out. Personally if you want your hair to smell better and still use Selsun Blue, I would recommend the type in the pic because it has the most appealing smell imo.

>>14585985 Not sure what you mean here. Is it like a cowlick or just some bits that just fall in your face?

>>14586262 Maybe you're using shampoo that's drying your hair out. I don't have any great brands off the top of my head unfortunately.

>>14586306 The best thing I did was using something to keep it in place. Heavy styling gels are better with shorter hair, while using smaller amounts of oils make longer hair look better. Maybe try using a sample of something once and see how it works out for you (ofc I'm biased).

[Anonymous No.14586592]

>>14586314
It's pretty obvious. Your scalp doesn't know you've had a haircut, it only knows that there's normally a bunch of hair up there and that hair needs oil.

Going from Tarzan to Jarhead will mean a period of excess oils until either your scalp adjusts or you grow your hair back out.

>>14586425
alright will try it out, thanks brah

[Anonymous No.14587648]

>>14587310 I'm definitely not a professional but your hair looks pretty dry. Dry hair is generally what causes things to look frizzy. You could be using a shampoo that's drying your hair out or it could just be the weather. I would try using conditioner. There are a lot of types out there, maybe just try a regular one and see how it works out. There are also some de-frizz sprays that I've heard are good for this sort of thing, but I haven't used any yet so no guarantees.

>>14587330 There's an awkward phase in between nape length and shoulder length (not sure how else to phrase it), and if you have an undercut it will grow into a mullet. I learned the hard way. If you want to try growing it out, get it cut into a style that will look good on the length it's at. When it grows out, get the style changed. Because you have a fade, your hair will grow in unevenly and you will have to take steps to avoid this.

Don't brush your hair when it is wet, as that's when it stretches most and is weakest. You really don't need a normal brush for anything, the best way to get tangles out is a wide toothed comb- start at the bottom and slowly work your way up to your scalp, patience is honestly the key for nice, long hair. After getting all the tangles out you can go over the length of everything with a boar bristle brush.

so combing in the shower is actually bad?

[Anonymous No.14587676]

>>14587662
Yeah, it leads to more breakage, not to mention the hair follicle is softened which makes it easier to pull hair out unintentionally. I find that finger combing loosely while I'm conditioning helps get the snaggles out, but try not to force it. Also, when you dry your hair don't just tousle it in the towel roughly, do the female head wrap or just use the towel to softly squeeze out the excess water and let air dry. If blow-drying only use on cool.

[Anonymous No.14587729]

>>14586306 too much shampoo. Don't dry it completely, leave it damp instead

[Anonymous No.14587818]

The top layers and fringe of my hair are super dry and frizzy, brittle to the point I can snap strands off halfway up, rough feeling with crinkles and sharp bends. Is there anything I can do to fix this shit or do I just need to take the buzzpill? The rest of my hair is pretty much normal wavey. I've tried washing it less, avoiding sulphates, silicone, soaking it in conditioner, using argan and coconut oil. None of it really seems to change anything.

[Anonymous No.14587828]

I used to have very long hair until 5 or 6 years ago, they went all the way down to my butt. Had some split ends but they weren't too bad. I decided to cut them because I was working in a factory and hitting the gym and they became an annoyance. Plus I was tired of being associated with rockers or whatever. I kinda miss them now and I think I'll grow them back a bit, but I really don't miss all the maintenance they required. Maybe I'll keep them shoulder-length.

I won't ever get a serious answer huh

[Anonymous No.14590243]

I have thick long hair that gets really dry, straight, and unattractive after I wash it. I have tried all kinds of cheap and higher end shampoo and conditioner. There are slight variations in how it feels, but it looks pretty much the same either way.
If I go a few days or even a week without washing it, it gets super nice and full while falling nicely and staying non-greasy basically forever, but I get dry scalp and then have to wash it.
Are there any products that can fix my hair after a wash, so I can shampoo it two or three times a week and still have nice hair?
The only half-fix I have is to use an insanely expensive, ridiculous artisan type hair paste with argan oil that I mix with tons of water in my hands and comb small amounts of into my hair while wet, but I cant get it to work consistently. Sometimes it gets greasy, sometimes it dries up like normal after a couple of hours.
Any advice?

this summer i went 2 weeks without washing them and only had to because i also got a realy fucking dry scalp and no grease what so ever
anyway i never realy went for anything jewish so i didnt try any artisan products but i tried putting some aloe vera in it before bed and it fixes the dry scalp for a couple of days and not washing them thoroughly keeps them the ever so slightest bit greasy and makes them not so wet noodly like
