How to manage men’s longer hairstyles
Without proper care, long hair can quickly become tangled and dry.
Men with longer hair also need to consider their styling routine to ensure their hair keeps looking healthy, well-groomed and in top condition overall.
Some of the most effective ways to manage longer hair for men include:
Focus on correct washing:
We often see male clients overfishing their longer hair.
Shampooing daily with harsh products can strip away natural oils, leaving hair dry and brittle. We recommend washing hair no more than three times weekly.
It is also advisable to use a sulphate-free hair shampoo product, specifically designed for your hair type.
Quality hair conditioner is also essential to soften hair, reduce frizz and prevent tangles.
Use quality grooming tools:
Managing men’s longer hair also means investing in the best grooming tools.
Our central Bristol stylists recommend using a wide-tooth comb or detangling brush to prevent hair stress and breakage. Do not pull hard on hair knots.
Regular hair trims:
Even when growing hair out, it is important to get regular hair trims for men.
Getting a hair trim and end tidy-up every 8-12 weeks will remove split ends, maintain overall shape, and keep the longer hairstyle looking sharp.
Hydrate long hair:
Men with longer hair need to maintain moisture levels for healthier hair. Hydrated hair is easier to style and less likely to frizz, tangle or break.
Use leave-in conditioner, hair oils, and lightweight, quality hair serums to reduce dryness and boost shine. We can advise clients further on this.
It is also vital for men looking to manage longer hair in central Bristol to consider hair type when it comes to hydration.
Men with thick, curly hair can benefit from richer hair creams, while clients with fine hair should opt for lighter hair hydration products.
