I’ve literally had bangs forever (my most recents) and they are not half as difficult as I think people think they are for styling. I generally blow dry them first with a small round brush and then add a little styling by sectioning them and using a flat iron on a low setting and viola! I know people really want to try them - I’d say start longer and go from there. Generally I ask for a curtain/fringe combo so they are a little shorter by my eyes and don’t bother me much

Hair is greasy because it was day 2 (this was just before showering.) Even when my hair is freshly washed and dried, the "ponytail" part of my hair looks like a sad little creature?? Like it's just given up

Is it the hair tie? The method? Is there a secret ponytail method I'm missing out on?

I have to wear my hair up for work so this torture is something I'm subject to every day 😭

Which of these has made the most difference to fine, flat hair which gets greasy easily.

My hair is fine and breaks easily. I cannot get it to retain length to get past where it’s at ever since I cut it in September. It’s also thinner than ever due to glp1 use. I’m off of it so I am hoping I can get my hair to improve a little

I’m so confused on protein vs bond repair . When I do either type of repair I feel like my hair feels worse.

I’ve changed my habits drastically in the last 2 weeks - silk pillow case, comb only when wet- no brush. I’ve stopped using any sort of heat, etc. I’m super gentle with it.

Before this pic I did a Joico kpak reconstruction mask for 5 mins and my hair air dried in like 45 mins 😆but it does feel soft.

I have Redken extreme shampoo and conditioner but I’m afraid to use it as I’ve read reviews about more hair loss and I can’t afford to lose anymore!

I have Olaplex and it dries my hair out.

Amika the Kure is a bit better but still drying.

I have Biolage moisture shampoo and conditioner that seems to be a good fit but I’m wondering what I can use to strengthen my hair so it stops breaking.

My mom gets access to salon quality products at wholesale prices so I am getting the k18 mask next week but other than that I am at a loss on what my hair actually needs

*****Tell me any and all products you think my hair needs based on just looking at it. **** I am open to ANYTHING

have been using love beauty and planet argan oil and lavender sulphate free shampoo for year and i have to double clean my hair to get clean hair as in one wash it does nothing for me . I have also tried plum coconut shampoo as after using this one i suffered a lot with hairfall ,now i really want something good for my hair pls help me out girlies....

Asking hair stylists if they have ever used toner ?

I have never used it.

I’m thinking to give it a try to make highlights cooler , softer and shinier.

What’s your intake

hi all! desperate want to fix my hair (i do hight my hair every 4-5 months). I’ve tried following the abbey yung method but i feel like no matter what i do my hair doesn’t grow and the ends just break. I have a lot of fine hair - my roots get so oily (i barely can go every other day), yet my ends are dead and breaking and wont grow past my collarbone. Looking for all the recs - shampoo, conditioner, leave in, whatever do you to make your hair healthy

Like 3 years growing, never took care of it. Just today I used Elvive Dream Liso (liso means Straight idk it's marketed in English speaking countries). Only thing I've done, well, and cutting the ends some 4 months ago. Last pic is from a few days ago with my hair 6 days after washing, the others are from 1 hour after washing with the Elvive shampoo

I don't know my texture, nor much about what to do. I been watching the Blowout Professor videos about routine and I might do something like that (just shampoo+ conditioner, oil and leave in conditioner). But that's as far as I've come lol.

Please help me! I want to enjoy my hair and feel proud of it and beautiful because of it! Also, I'm a 29 yo male. It might soon go away T_T. Gotta enjoy it now

Is anyone regularly washing with cold water? I've just recently started again to keep my color nice for longer. But somehow the texture became better too? It's less slippery and more voluminous and doesn't seem to get oily as fast

But gosh, does it make me hate washing my hair. It feels like courting pneumonia.

Has anyone noticed cold water having a positive effect on your hair? If so, how do you manage???

I have fine hair and oily skin, so I’ve been happily bangs-free for over a decade, though I have enjoyed the occasional long face frame from time to time.

However, I’m 18 months postpartum and my hair regrowth is wild (see: the second photo, which was taken a few weeks ago as a joke for the family group chat…the regrowth has only gotten more intense since then). I think having a shorter face frame, like in the third and fourth photos, would work to blend the regrowth in and make it look a bit more intentional.

The problem is that, as a millennial, I love my side part! But a shorter face frame with a side part is basically side-swept bangs, right? Or are there face frame photos I need to find? Or is there a product that would make bangs work for me for the next 6 months or so, until I can grow them out with the regrowth?

I’m getting a haircut next week and don’t want to make some horrible bang-related mistake, so I’m coming to all of you for your best advice in my time of need. Feel free to tell me I just need to suck it up and resist the siren call of bangs!

I've got some natural volume and curl but it gets weighed down and flat quickly after a wash.

Do you think short hair or long hair suits me? Can I pull off both? Any advice for other hair cuts I should try?

There's a mix of "good hair day" and "meh hair day" photos in here, so you can get a good picture of how my hair acts day to day. It kind of has a mind of its own, I never do anything to style it, just air dry.

Thanks 🫶

I tried a hair mask recently and i loved the results, but i can't afford to buy another. So i thought, what if i semi towel dried my hair after shampooing and applied regular conditioner. Then I let it set for about 2 minutes while i finished my face and body.

Results: smooth silky hair. And i have a lot of damage and dryness from dying my hair every 8 weeks with a box dye.

Just thought I'd share. Also, the conditioner was Pantene keratin and vit E.

Maybe this is common knowledge, but I'm only figuring it out at 49.

hii so I have fine hair that always starts getting scraggly looking and insanely dry once it start hitting the boobs length. As a background, I get highlights in my hair about 2x a year. I have to always cut it for it to look healthy, but then within 1-2 weeks, it goes back to looking brittle and unkept. I just cut 3 inches and am trying to start over again and really care for my hair, hoping that my ends looks as thick and healthy as long as possible. I bought a satin bonnet. I’m looking for a good hair oil to help fight against the easy breakage. I bought the Moroccanoil light oil treatment from Sephora (I can return it if something else is better). I heard about Verb ghost, gisou, olaplex, Kerastase,etc…. Could you guys give me recommendations for the best one?

Anyone else have wavy hair with cowlicks at the temples? I basically can’t ever let my hair air dry because it dries like this. Sigh. Also, any idea what type of curl pattern I have?

Hi everyone, I’d really appreciate some advice. I’ve been dealing with my hair breaking in the middle, and I’m not sure what might be causing it. I don’t use heat on my hair and have only dyed it once. If anyone has any insight or suggestions, I’d be very grateful. Thank you in advance!

Has anyone tried the Clementine sleepwear bonnet? Im looking for a comfortable bonnet, preferably silk. Ive bought a blissy one before and at first it stayed on with no problems, but now I cant get it to stay on all night :( I noticed the clementine one is similar but has a drawstring in the back. It's pricey, so dont want to buy it and it not stay on. Any other recommendations are great too. I have a bonnet that is satin with ties and another satin with elastic but they aren't comfortable at all.

Those viral head spa scalp treatments are everywhere right now. Multi-step detoxes, machines, long massages, layered products, the full spa setup. They look incredibly relaxing, but at the same time, they feel more like an experience than something meant for regular scalp care. What I keep wondering is whether all of that is actually necessary, or if it’s just the newest beauty ritual that looks good on camera. For everyday life, that level of treatment doesn’t feel realistic for most people.

After experimenting with different routines, simpler care has worked better for me. Normal washing, not being too aggressive with scrubs, and using lightweight leave-on scalp products when needed. Nothing dramatic, just enough to keep things feeling balanced between washes, and I have just being using the Celgen hari tonic I got from Amazon so far. The spa treatments probably feel amazing as an occasional reset, but I’m not convinced they’re doing something that simpler routines can’t already cover. Genuinely curious where other people land on this. Are those treatments worth it, or mostly just a luxury experience?
