Living in a mostly white town I get a lot of people telling me I should just grow out an Afro, with them having no clue the amount of time and effort it takes to properly grow and maintain one. Like no thanks I’ll stick to my locs
I hear that too everytime i start a new class or job 😆 you should think it would stop by now because off all the different styles you see now, but sadly not
Yes, picking my afro out every day or every other day can get annoying
Game devs need to peep this
One day I’ll play a game with my twist 🤞🏿
I think this changes a lot based on your hair type.
For me with 4c, twists and box braids last a long time, they’re not really high maintenance.
For me to rock a fro, I would be having to stretch out my hair every couple days which would be a lot of work. Other people with a looser hair texture could keep the volume on their fro with less work.
Also humidity, and weather. If you get an afro wet you gotta start combing immediately, it's a massive pain.
You gotta move bald up to at least B, especially if its a balding man and not just somebody who want a bald head. If i miss more than 2 days without a shave I look like George Jefferson.
Yr still bald tho so you literally just shave it with no product no nothin
I see what you mean but legit all u gotta do is shave it
Locs aren’t high maintenance. At most they’re average. Just cuts and retwists every few weeks/months depending on if you can style out the look
you dont know how much work goes into waves lol
Depends on your texture

Free form is what i have and the only issue is cleaning your scalp and keeping your hair hydrated and not looking homeless
Put your hair up if it’s long enough it instantly takes the homeless look away I promise I’ve been offered food plenty of times while I walked to work😂
Or looking like you're from Florida

Waves was a lot of maintenance had full 360. Freeforming now so much easier and don’t gotta pay for haircuts
Nobody is going to click this video if you keep those Freeform's in the S tier on the thumbnail. You gottta pic the most common hairstyle in S tier for people to click because people don't want their dreads to be shamed down to c tier

Literally the best one too

i wouldnt call it shaming. after all its on maintenance not look. People with the style would know best how difficult/easy it is to maintain.
Hey man i just wanted to say i really appreciate the wide variety of hairstyles you mentioned in the video, theres not a whole lot of self care videos for black men, and a lot of the ones that DO exist are really surface level, i've NEVER seen this type of video mention freeform locs before,(i've been letting my hair lock up for about 6 months now!!), and the clips you showed of people with freeform locs were of people who are important in the loc community (zayloc23, DOMI boy, even Bamskelly in the thumbnail), i know it's a pretty small thing but most "looksmaxxing" content looks, feels, and sounds the same. So to me that just shows a greater attention to detail than basically any other looksmaxxing video ive ever seen, it also shows that youre ACTUALLY of our culture and black cause most "looksmaxxing videos for black men" aren't BY black men, and that doesnt make a whole lot of sense. So again, i just wanted to say i appreciate you and keep up the good work!! Youre making great stuff!!
Thank you bro🙏
Thank you bro🙏🏾. I did notice a lot of videos are not actually made by black men some people even doubt that I'm black because I speak "proper" I guess😂. But I'm really speaking from experience in these videos. Thanks again though.
@@BroMaxxing Man don’t even listen to those goofballs, mfs will do anything BUT show a nigga some love. Keep up the the great stuff man!! You’re killing it!!🗣️
this the first vid I've seen that got every lil subcategory of black hair, W vid
If you know how to do finger coils, they can take about maybe 45 minutes, and they can really last you for about two weeks if you do them correctly. There’s a learning curve with finger coils. Finger coils are my go-to style whenever I want my hair to have more shrinkage and look a bit more controlled.
What length are we talking here? I've seen someone prpfessionally get finger coils done on maybe 5 inch long hair and it took like 2 hours. Also it looks ass so there's no point in getting em
@@BroMaxxing I’m not sure about the length but I think my hair is about 4 inches the first time I tried them (it took forever to do). I didn’t start doing them on a regular basis until my hair got past my ears because I don’t like the feeling of hair touching my ears. I found that if the finger coils are smaller and aren’t as tight, they come out looking like really well defined curls. I’ve seen a lot of Brazilian guys style their hair that way.
@@BroMaxxingmy hair is almost shoulder length and it takes me about 45 minutes to a hour to do them and they last 2 weeks or sometimes they’ll still look fresh for the entire month
@@BroMaxxingmy hair like Bruno mars, down to my chin. It takes max an hour, but for people with type 4 hair I assume it takes much longer cause it’s thicker and more tangled.
my coils used to take like 20-30 but i had 3c/4a-ish hair so it wasnt incredibly hard

Pick it out a lil
Finished
I’m happy I came across this vid not because im a black dude with any of these hair styles (im white with straight hair past my shoulders lol) but because im practicing drawing black hair and this gave me so much inspo, and also info! Easily digestible video :)
How can you be black and white
Bro can you fo a video on beard styles, im sure you could make alot of contents off that.
this is a great list, ngl people think low maintenance is SUPER easy but it just means that it is EASY COMPARED to the OTHER hairstyles (for example being bald ain't easy as you have to shave often but it is 100x easier than something like finger coils or waves)

Waves are very very high maintenance
My brother use to have em and i definitely can confirm this😂😂😂
Eh. Only takes like an hour a day and as long as you is committed you good.
No they not, u just gotta keep your hair laid fr that’s it.
@@ObbeViews My bad, y'all got me responding to every comment apologizing about the placement of waves😭
@@Epic_monculusany hairstyle that takes an hour of maintenance a day is high maintenance. 1 hour minimum to maintain your hairstyle is a lot, and I'm not even factoring in hair cuts.
Locks and braids definitely need to go lower down in my opinion
U might be right ngl
If I was black, I definitely would have one of the hairstyles in the low maintenance group except for wicks. My favorite is second from the right on the C (low) tier. Michael B Jordan has good hairstyle too.
I had dreads throughout my entire 20's the front came down to my waist and the back to my butt, when I turn 30 I cut them, not necessarily because I was tired of them but because it seem like they just started to disappear in the front and back! It's weird because my hair wasn't falling out (no receding hairline) 🤔 in fact when I cut them I literally had a mini bush! Which was by far the *HARDEST* style to maintain and grow 😩 every morning it took almost a hr to get right and then you had to be careful constantly checking on it throughout the day!
Sister/brother locs gotta be the most high maintenance style
I had semi freeform mostly throughout 2nd-6th grade with the occasional braiding. But now I jus kinda went for box braids and twists in general 🤷🏾♂️
Can I just talk about this unexpected reference in the thumbnail?

_Eish._
Long curls are so hard, man. I currently have 10-12 in hair, and i have a cut scheduled next week. My 3c curls look great, but my life is getting a bit too busy, and i want to take on some new hobbies. Says a lot that i want to cut my hair just so i can free up some time and get rid of some stress, lol
Dreadlocs can be very high maintenance depending on how many you have you might have 50 or you might have 200
A fro is not that high maintenance u just gotta pick it out
Saying twist look worse when they get bigger is actually a crazy take. That extra fluff is tough
They look better but you can't rock em like that for too long because it gets frizzy unless you still have a fresh cut
Hassan il est de partout avec son afro
Vraiment ça le lâche pas 😂
You don’t always have a clean cut with waves but you always gotta make sure they are laid. Most people don’t understand that waves are only laid down curls. Other than that maintenance is easy I would put that like B tier at most
I love the content and this was really helpful man I just wanna know what is the name of the style arter semi free forms you put it in b 5:08
How are cornrows lower maintenance then box braids
waves are s tier
Nah I had waves with 4c. It’s not really hard to brush and pomade everyday. Once they come in, all you have to do is wear a doo rag, not wearing one is the only way they’ll mess up
I used to have an afro, still do, but i put the whole thing in a ponytail. Now my hair lays down naturally.
My hair is currently exactly like at 6:40
Imo afro amd long curls are the hardest to take care of
Waves are very high brody
4:07 Hobie Brown ahh hairstyle 😭
with freedorms you gotta wash yo hair every 1 -2 weeks
It's just like growing your hair out regularly without detangling which makes it much lower maintenance
What haircut do you recommend when growing out the sides of your hair??
Cornrows
I have pretty sharp face features my face is the the rectangle one ,I think, but not that much if u get me(I’m lightskin too) what hairstyle should I get cos I currently got mid/long length curls with low taper but I wanna try sum different?
DM on instagram I gotchu
Accurate on most of these, as a person who tried a lot these styles smh once once its long enough unless you really are good at doing your own hair or have a dedicated stylist that knows what do with your hair (preferably a family member or friend) it is so tedious to do anything but get it braided consistently and most likely its not worth doing anything but put it in cornrows bc taking down anything else is tedious and annoying.
I have a nice big afro. And i love it but there are definitely days when im like "fuck it would be so simpler if i had a shorter hair style" but then I remember all the compliments I've gotten from my afro and just stick with it
Yooo that’s my homie in the thumbnail!
having an afro is cool until u cant lean ur head on anything bru
Outside of a brush cut or fade all other black hairstyles are high maintenance.
man heavy on long curls, i had curly hair going past my shoulders and it was too much, had to ditch it
I find having long curly hair easy to maintain, but not everyone has easy going schedules. I'd say it takes me about 10 minutes to pick and comb it out in the shower and then shake my hair to define my curls. After all that i let it air dry and go about my day
I feel like 360 waves are in the s tier but 180s are a tier
L take on coils i got em and they last like 2 weeks and as long as you wash em you can keep em in.
@nicolas-t3h what hair type do you have? Whenever I've washed them they literally disappeared. I think they only last for tighter hair textures but even then they still take way too long to get done
I have a round face i dunno if waves and goatee would look good on me or i should go for waves and full beard
I can't say cus I don't know what you look like. DM me on IG
Feel like locs should be lower you just clean them every week-ish get a retwist every 2 months and vibe and after a certain length you dont even need to get cuts regularly
I’ve had Freeform dreads for the past 9 years definitely low maintenance all I have to do is wash it every dread I have is a congo I couldn’t separate or retwist my hair if I wanted to😂 the only drawback is new growth my shit wild. Started getting twist and plats tryna leave them in to get dreads I eventually gave up took them out washed it and left it alone I started with my dreads barley below my eyes now they towards my lower back the amount of maintenance I’ve done since then is basically none🤷🏿♂️
Freeform you all way got to shampoo your hair no matter what just to let it grow some people do a lot of stuff to there Freeform.
Just cut my hair down but imma grow it out and get cornrows they look to clean
Can u make one abt facial hair for black men my mustache is ass rn (im 14) and idk how to make it look good

This is my hair
😭I'm so sorry for you
😂😂
It takes an hour to do coils and it could last 2 weeks if u know what u doing
Depends on the length and hair texture Ig but if your hair is loose it'll come out in a couple days
@@BroMaxxing yeah it’s best for 3c to 4a hair type
Medium curls are the staple of 50 50 mfs
And what about permanent?
I'm mad. Not bc you're wrong but because you're right and I'm growing locs to do low maintenance. *sigh*
Bro the nonchalant dread headd
I’m Asian but I enjoyed the vid
waves should have its on tier at the top
I think I can speak for everybody who has waves that being a waver is high difficulty. 😂
You'll reorder this a bit if you ever decide to shave yourself bald. 😂
Me over here with a buzz cut minding my own business
As a Vietnamese man i dont know youtube suggested this to me or why I watched
I’m not a guy but that low cut doesn’t seem like low maintenance to me. I have guy friends with that style who go to the barbershop every week for a haircut other their curls grow in. To me that sounds like a PITA as far as time and money goes.
With all due respect waves has to be higher if you want prestine waves atleast 4 hours minmum of total brushing daily then you add moisturizing and washing every other day i mean thorough washing due to the amount of oils and ,moisturizers anybody who have waves knows what it feels its not a oh ill dedicate weekends no its every damn day
Who is the guy with colorful locs at 3:07

@@Kingngur Thank you
Ja Morant
Why Hassan is there 😂😂😭
Waves are in S tier, not too many styles have to be touched every single day like waves tbh.
Locs are low maintenance no matter how you deal with them. I go for a retwist and a style maybe every 8-10 weeks. Also where did you hear people with Freeform’s don’t wash their hair? That’s very false in fact water helping the free forming process
I don't even know why I watched this, I'm white, but I still dropped a like
Nothing wrong with learning new information.
Braids lowk required no maintenance
Where's the Kilmonger haircut 😂😂😂
Pls someone show this to game devs so we can get some good black hairstyles in games🙏🏽
I had 180 and 360 waves, had boxed braids, and now have 540 waves, waves are its definitely S tier, its CONSTANT brushing if you want elite waves, and that months to even have ripples in your hair starting from bald. Even the casual guy that has not so good waves will have to put in work to even see something.
It’s like the quintessential high maintenance haircut for black men.
I think boxed braids are like B tier and also dreads, because both are protective hairstyles. You aren’t supposed to touch your hair. That right there is a contradiction in my opinion.
Thats facts I knew I might've underestimated waves because I've never had them before I just see people always having to brush them for it to look good. You also might be right about box braids but for locs it's high maintenance IF you want them to look really clean which I specified in the vide. I said they can be low if you're not getting haircuts and retwists often but maybe I'm wrong. Locs are also not a protective style and I don't understand where the contradiction is.

Bruh wheres da jherri curl

Je suis le seul qui l'a reconnu ouuu
Twists aint really high maintenance 5 min wake up routine and that's it, and they look better with time. They only start looking bad towards the end of their lifetime, so towards the latter of like 2 weeks. But a retwist and you good
I don’t think picking an Afro takes long, it’s more so taking care of the hair to be that long to be an Afro
Lmao whenever I see unkempt hair or messy locs it just looks like your dirty and not like stylish messy locs like I haven’t gotten retwisted in years
Bro what. Box braids, twists, and cornrows are no maintenance at all, you just gotta oil your scalp and thats it💀
I don’t the last one should be on very high maintenance, you’re basically just combing out your hair
waves are low maintenance gang
Bro what are you talking about 😭
Twist dont last that long at all. I perfer braids much more.
Bro twists isn’t high maintenance. I’ve had my twists in for 2 months now and they still look very good. All u gotta do is just protect your hair wit dat durag when yk u need to protect ur hair.
these videos too short gang
takes 10 hours for me to edit 8 minutes, I hope you understand why I don't make them longer😂
Am I white Yes did I watch this out of boredom also Yes
Great video idea just poor execution
Ummmm….Dreadlocks😅
How are waves not S tier?
You chose silly hairstyles. I'm guessing you're super young.
This list butt
some of these aren't even black hair lol
For example?

@@BroMaxxingthey may be referring to the pictures with more looser curly hair. African Americans don't all share super coily hair as a phenotypical trait. Some of us naturally have looser curly hair and some of us naturally have more coily hair.
I know what you mean, but not everyone who is black has coily hair some have curly my mom is straight up African Ghanaian in fact and her hair is like a 3c
@@jaysonyirenkyi3741 if she’s American, she has white blood/Native American blood. 100% sub Saharan Africans do not have curly hair. If you go to Ghana and other west African countries, you’ll never see curly hair. And if you do, they’re mixed with east Africa or North Africa, as those are not negroid race.
I hate waves
You have no idea of what you’re talking about
