Hair care tips for men with long hair

by Michy Lynn

Created on: April 15, 2009

Men, listen up. Women love healthy, thick, full hair on a man, the type of hair they can wrap their fingers around or run their fingertips through. Color doesn't matter. Length doesn't matter too much. What matters is that the hair is healthy and well-cared for. In fact, woman don't really even care too much if a man is balding as long as there is something they can brush their fingertips over. I love when my man gets a haircut and comes home with the soft fuzz at the back of the neck.

Hair-Care Tip for Men - Shampoo and Conditioner:

One way a man can have healthier hair is by washing it with shampoo and conditioner. A lot of men neglect the conditioner or just opt for shampoo or even bar or liquid soap to wash hair. Unfortunately, liquid soap and bar soap will leave a residue on the hair and your hair will be stiff and won't feel soft. Conditioner will keep hair shiny and soft, and your woman will love to run her fingers through or over your hair.

Hair-Care Tip for Men - Cut Hair Frequently:

Trimming your hair about once per month will keep it growing healthy, trim any rough or broken ends, and help it maintain a nice shine and healthy softness. You can trim your own hair, but at least once every three months or so, a man should get his hair cut and styled by a professional.

Hair-Care Tip for Men - Eat a Healthy Diet:

Women have learned that what we eat affects our hair and skin, but you guys are still not quite convinced, it seems. Beer and steak and potatoes are good for once in awhile, but water, vegetables and fruits help get nutrition and vitamins that are important for healthy, gorgeous man hair.

Hair-Care Tip for Men - Hair-Care Products:

If hair feels dry or frizzy or curly, using a little styling mouse or gel can tame that and make hair shiny and healthy looking and also make your hair fuller and thicker. Avoid using oils or hair slicks though because they will make hair limp and stringy and thinner looking.

Update your hairstyle every now and then. If you've been wearing the same style for most of your life, you'd be amazed how different a new hairstyle can make you feel. Visit a salon that specializes in men and ask them to give you an updated style that compliments your appearance.

Hair-Care Tips for Men - Bald is Beautiful:

If your hair is thinning, don't try to hide it or do the dreaded combover. Why not consider going bald all the way - shave it! It makes your hair fuzz soft and women love to rub bald heads!

Don't be afraid to experiment with your hair. Men can be stylish too. After all, it's only hair and it will grow back if you don't like it!
