Currently trying to grow my hair and I learned it's curly. After years in the military and going to military schools I've never had longer hair. This is all so new to me
@@AJ-ze1pd going well actually. I had a large pompadour for awhile. It looked okay. Now I'm sticking to more wavy hair and man buns. I work in finance though, so I have to keep it styled
@@jrp7808 nice one man. I had the pomp too and when it got too long I hid it in a hat. Finally deciding to embrace the man bun now! Good luck in the journey ahead
@@AJ-ze1pd I'm also growing out my beard now too. I have never wanted to hide my face with a beard because I think I'm pretty, but it does look kinda dashing
I'm right there with ya, lol. In my mid 30's and had my hair grown out once, about 4 months ago. It didn't look good, cause I didn't have a clue what I was doing lol. Just a lot of guessing and winging it. This time around, game is changed lol
Mine is insanely curly I wish it was just wavy like urs but I don’t have many options other then keeping it short and coming it so it’s just a lil curvy or wavy or grow it out and keep it as a mini frow
This might just be the most informative video I’ve seen on men’s hair. For the past 15+ years I’ve shaved my head bald. Since quarantine started I decided to grow my hair out. So its been a massive journey of discovery trying to figure out what type of hair I have. Thank you for this!

This is the video I've been looking for my entire life. I always wanted to grow my hair but it gets frizzy and dry-looking and I never managed to understand or choose hair products. You're doing God's work here my friend.
Putting in all this time and effort into your videos and giving away helpful free content, it really shows that you’re passionate about helping other dudes. Easy to see that you have an abundance mindset! Lovin’ the content!!
@@ssssSTopmotion I neglected to mention that he's much more handsome than I, but yeah! It's so funny when friends and coworkers sometimes call me Jesus as a nickname.
When you were going through the 'putting it all together' section, you perfectly described my hair type with the first example. You were spot on with the recommendations on treating it! I had to find out the hard way through trial and error over years, so I wish this was around when I was first learning about taming my hair! Awesome video!
Pattern: Curly Curl Type: 2c/3a Porosity: Medium Texture: Medium Density: Thick Scalp Moisture: Oily My scalp is horrendous but my hair looks great. Lush, long, curls that women love. But I'm always flaking on my clothes and dear god the gunk under my nails if I itch my scalp... -_- I know how to look after my hair just fine. I brush and wash it once a week, bushing before washing it. Using Sulphate and Silicone free shampoo and conditioner and maintain it during the week with a refreshing spray. Makes my hair look great. But my scalp... I've no idea how to deal with it. It was the same before I leaned how to look after my hair. I Used to brush daily and wash 3 a week with Tresemme products and wonder why it was a frizzy mess. Now my hair looks great but my scalp is still just as nasty. Doesn't help that I only like wearing dark clothes and I constantly have to brush off the flakes.
I'm 18 and I've have shoulder length hair since I was 14, these videos have really helped me learn to take care of my hair as opposed to my normal routine basically all of my earlier teen years; that was pretty much using Axe shampoo once a week and brushing it slightly, but never detangling or conditioning it. My hair was always course and wiry, and lacked any volume whatsoever. Now I use charcoal organic shampoo and conditioner, and I actually use a conditioning and detangling spray in the mornings, I also never brush wet hair anymore, and I found a great salon in a town nearby ran by a nice lady who is amazing at styling and grooming my hair when its time for a trim. Anyways, thanks Trav for being a great advisor for men with long hair, young and old.
Dude, your channel is more informative yet easier to understand than any woman’s channel I’ve found! Turns out I have 2b, medium porosity, medium density hair and I’m pretty sure a dry scalp. It can get greasy after 2-3 days without washing but I think that’s just my glands overproducing to compensate. My shaft and ends are dryer but I do all the things you listed (only wash the scalp and condition middle to ends) and sleeping with a hair bonnet has helped with that substantially as well. Thankfully I’ve gotten better at managing it through the years. Thank you for all of the tips and advice! I think it’s great that you gear your channel towards men but hair is hair and it’s good information for everyone :)
As a woman a find this very informative and way better than the hundreds of videos on TH-cam done by women, very straight to the point~ Great Job young man🤗
You can feel confident the video will be informative when you click and see that the guy talking basically has the same head of hair as you do. Thanks for the info
Currently growing my hair out (9 months in) and i always thought that i had straight hair, the end of my hair are wavy so it will be interesting to see how it turns out
This video is amazing. It made me realize that I don’t want anything to do with any of the tips you gave and in January I’m going to get a buzz cut. Been growing for almost 10 months because of COVID and I hate it 95% of the time. This probably isn’t what you wanted to hear but you helped me realize what it takes to have long hair and it ain’t for me.
Anytime I face a problem with my hairs this guy comes up with a solution in the next video. I don't know how did he do that. The video ws late but the wait was worth it.
love seeing the positivity in your comments trav. I know how hard you worked to make this video happen! Free pdf too? What an awesome idea. Wonder who thought of that? ;) keep it up babe👏🏼👏🏼
up until my early 30s, I had type 1 hair. One day, my stylist and I decided to go with a mid-length cut for a little change. As she began cutting my hair, she leaned into my ear and said "umm... I didn't know you had curly hair." I told her I don't. Well, much to our surprise, by the time she was done cutting it, it had curled up to the point of large bouncy curls and much shorter that we had expected. It still looked good and it was a lot of fun letting it grow back out with my new curls. My hair, now back to shoulder length, is much wavier than before.
This was awesome! I finally have a bit of direction on how to care for my hair. I have 3a-3b, high porosity, mid density, coarse textured hair. If you can imagine, nobody influential on TH-cam with hair recommendations ever has my type, so my hair is always a curse. This was good info. Thanks
I have pretty much the exact same hair type as you Trav, even down to almost the exact same color! I’ve been growing my hair out for almost two years and It’s nice to get an idea of what my hair will look like in the future!
as a person with 2c-3a hair I envy people with staight/wavy hair, y'all can do anything with it and it'll look good, meanwhile anything I do makes me look like a homeless ginger dude. You can curl or straighten ur hair, meanwhile if I ry to do ANYTHING fancy with mine I look disheveled.
I came here searching for an idea for a good shampoo/conditioner for my hair, and I am already using the same brand you are. And my hair is a lot like yours in this video with about an inch less in length and a lot thinner than yours.
Curly girl method is also for men …. & I recommend it if your hair is dry or needs reviving . Chances are your hair type has been fed the wrong products your whole life , once you do the method you will see your real hair texture & potential while keeping it healthy and more curly
I also have a type 3 short to mid long hair, hows the regiment so far with your boyfriend? im still clueless on which products to get for myself and how id use them properly
Didn't watch the video but am skimming through the guide. I second the thing with no sulfates in shampoo when you have a dry, or at least sensitive scalp. Also no alcohol. My scalp used to get flaky and itchy after one to two days with most shampoos, but it doesn't when washed with sulfate- and alcohol-free shampoos.
I've seen two of your vids so far Trav and you have taught me so much about my hair that i never knew.My hairs tied back in my pic but it's around the same length as yours down.Can't believe i have been washing it wrong all these years,i have combo hair as it's really really dry halfway down and now i know why and how to look after my hair better.Thanks so much for all your help brother 🤘
Great video Trav! This actually cleared out so much, thanks man! I have: Straight/Wavy (1/2A) Coarse Texture Medium-High density Medium porosity Combination/Oily scalp Also, I may have dandruff as when my hair gets oily there are some tiny yellow white-ish thingies in some areas.
I really like how well informed you are on hair types that aren't yours ! I'm curly, dry, and all yet you still manage to know how to care for it really well
Lol i found ur channel and u have straight hair like me.i have short hair but ill shave my hair in summer holiday because i go to school and i dont wanna go to school with a clean shave and ill start fully growing my hair
Okay, I normally don't comment on videos, but I feel like this one deserves all my attention, because you are doing an amazing job, Trav! From one creator to another, I really like the way you color grade and compose your videos! From one teacher to another, you are doing an amazing job in simplifying all the information! This is one of the hardest things to do, regardless the domain and there aren't many people that can successfully achieve that, especially in a 20 min video. You stayed on point and got my attention even though I kind of got the general idea of the video and got the info on my hair type. I just couldn't stop the video, even though it's 4:30 AM. And from one doctor to a fellow colleague that actually cares about other people's healthy lifestyle, I admire that you support all of your videos with a lot of research and that you quote from actual studies. I wish my teachers in med school would've done the same research as you did... Yeah, I'm a young dentist and a professional photographer and amateur astrophotographer that happens to pursue his creative career at the moment and I find myself teaching a photography course (for both doctors and creators) and I wanted to write you this feedack and give you a little part of my background because I actually know that proper research is indeed hardwork and I usually tell my students about awesome creators like you and I encourage them to share their view, research and experience with all of us, because the world needs a little push nowadays to get things done. And the more inspirational pillars we have in our fields of interest, the more we all get to enjoy life and what it has to offer. If you actually read the whole message, Trav, I wanted to tell you that I just passed the awkward stage and I can't wait to build up my TH-cam channel and give a proper feedback to all of your awesome work! Keep it up! P. S.: The PDF you've put out for free... keeps me motivated when I remember how much hardwork and equipment money I've put out for free as a photographer in the past 8 years... and it also prooves that you can't put a price on passion and dedication.
Hey I'm new to the channel, just wanted the thank you for all these videos. They're super helpful as I've been growing my hair out for quite a while now, starting from basically a skin fade back and sides. Even though I know it's gonna take a while and I'm pretty comfortable with it, it's refreshing to watch your videos and helps renew interest in hair care. This video in particular was enlightening because I knew I had wavy hair but I hadn't fathomed how complex hair types can be. Keep up the great work man.
I have difficulty figuring out how curly my hair is, as it gets longer it gets curlier, it starts off at around a 2c, then it gets to somewhere between a 3a or 3b, and as it gets longer the curls tighten, they tend to be the tightest in the back, I haven't had my hair reach much length, but in the back the curls would occasionally reach a 3c curl depending on how dry my hair was and how humid it was. (Also when the back would get like that it was about 2.5 inches long, while the hair up above is about 5-6 inches now, and will go from 2c to 3b.) My hair confuses me. At the very least as it gets longer they start to become more uniform, of course I've never grew my hair out too long (I'm trying to though) so I don't know just how curly they will get.
Skinny Wenis i have your problem. When my hair is shorter it looks completely straight but I’m growing it out and its gotten wavier. The weird thing is when i brush my hair or shower it becomes straight...
@@ghettomechanicllc3070 from wavy till i think around start of curly hair, if u cut it short it Looks straight for everyone because it takes a certain amount of length for the waves /curls to kick in and about showering, wet hair it's almost always straight for everyone lol, except like SUPER curly hair like 4a or smth around
@@ghettomechanicllc3070 The hair when you have long hair, or even medium-long which is dried fully and not wet that hair is your hair type (i say long/medium-long hair as it takes some length for the wave/curls to kick in)
@@KobingH damn i wrote that comment a year ago my hair wasnt that long yet now its passed my shoulders and yeah its definitely not straight hair. Pretty wavy almost curly
I'm trying out a new barber tomorrow, and this vid is EXACTLY what I needed. Very informative, super in-depth, just overall hella useful, thanks brother
after years of combing my hair really straight (side part), i found that when i let my hair air dry, it was a little bit curly! i guess i shouldnt be too surprised as many members of my family have curly hair
Dude. A video without bullshit, straight up science and facts and no shady influencer motive whateverthefuck? And also? At 18:10 , someone that doesn't just say "lol just wash your hair less if it's too oily", but ACTUALLY acknowledges the people that are NOT overwashing it and want advice for THAT. Honestly man? This video is almost unreal for todays standards where every influencer is just some dishonest schmuck parroting shit. You seem actually genuine with real information and cover full topics. (Looking at the overwashing thing is the best example because I swear nobody covers it further and just says "well lol gotta be overwashing thanks bye". I get that it's obviously valid, but nobody ever talks about the people that are without a doubt not overwashing and matter of fact experiment with less washing for months to see if and what changes) I must say I'm still confused though because I feel like for many points I'm both, dry AND oily. Which to me indicates I'm reading something about my body wrong, but I don't know what and how to fix it. You said your face gives good indication if your scalp is dry or oily. What does it mean if my face tends to be on the dry side, but gets oily insanely fast? Lotion or no lotion, my face half a day later is like the surface of a freshly oiled pan and Gordon Ramsey is ready to cook the perfect steak (idk why I went that far but I did). I get a lot of white flakes very shortly after shampooing. I do not use conditioner (is that really it? is conditioner 100% as necessary as shampoo?). I have gone with experiments where I went as far as to only shampoo my hair once a week for a couple months. Absolutely nothing changed other than me feeling very oily, dirty and miserable. My hair gets what I think is unpresentable for the public after 2 nights. Specifically nights because I feel like staying awake 24 hours my hair is not nearly as bad as if I had slept instead. Could be complete delusion, but I'm 36 years old and I have had these hair problems as long as I can think and the things I HAVE tried, I did so for a longer period of time to confirm things and frankly I have no fucking idea what to do. I can't even count the amount of different shampoos I had as well as the different kind of them as far as ingredients go. Idk if maybe I have some kind of genetic situation up there that would need a medical approach, because that's the thing I didn't do yet, but at the same time I feel like if it's just a combination of dry and oily and some itching and there's no like blood or wounds or anything than surely a normal fitting product should be sufficient? Maybe I just want it to be. Is it maybe me not using conditioner? I know so many people that just use shampoo, in fact I can count the amount of people I know on one hand that use conditioner. I got the impression from your video that regardless of scalp and hair type, everyone should use a shampoo and conditioner. The products change for each type, but any type should use both of them? Man I just wanna live in peace with my hair and not feel and look like I didn't wash my head for a year after just a day or two. If anyone can relate to any of my nonsense and/or anyone got some advice to share, just shoot. If you want to give advice but need more info then I'm more than happy to provide that. Regardless, thank you for the great educational video, Trav. Sadly this video is from 2020 and I didn't find it sooner, but man this should be the golden standard for a video of this purpose. Absolutely amazing. Have a good one.
We pretty much have the same hair profile although I damaged my hair in a heavily chlorinated pool and trying to get it back to health. Thanks for all your tips 🙏🏻
I used to have beautiful long curly hair, as I’ve aged (I’m 25 at the time of comment) my hairs gotten thinner and less healthy, I used to be able to get away with doing whatever and it just looks great but then I cut my hair 3 years ago and it’s been a struggle ever since to grow it out again. Don’t cut your hair boys
My hair is so weird, I got like ~5% pin straight ~45% 2a ~50% 2c mostly in the front Nd my hair is low porosity, a bit coarse, nd I have tons of hair like really dense.. Also I'm from India, the humidity here is really high, my hair is frizzy all the time!!😔

Unless you have nice thick genetically gifted hair, straight hair is horrible lol
I came here searching for an idea for a good shampoo/conditioner for my hair, and I am already using the same brand you are. And my hair is a lot like yours in this video with about an inch less in length and a lot thinner than yours.
Bro you have no business explaining this so thoroughly and so well, phenomenal job man. Helped me a lot.
What r u talking he had no business explaining this? He's Jesus.
Curly girl method is also for men …. & I recommend it if your hair is dry or needs reviving . Chances are your hair type has been fed the wrong products your whole life , once you do the method you will see your real hair texture & potential while keeping it healthy and more curly
Thank you bro!My hair growing journey begins!all I need to figure out is what products i have to use
Trav and Thomas are my inspiration to grow my hair out.
♥️♥️
I mean, all the work and dedication behind this video and the PDF, deserves a special feature on TH-cam 👏🏼 👏🏼
Trying to figure out how to style boyfriend type 3 long hair 😳 thank you for being a helpful guru!
I also have a type 3 short to mid long hair, hows the regiment so far with your boyfriend? im still clueless on which products to get for myself and how id use them properly
3b/3c(depending on length), low porosity, fine hair, thick density, combination moisture
Subbed for the peer reviewed research and pdf breakdown. That's amazing effort and it's appreciated
Didn't watch the video but am skimming through the guide. I second the thing with no sulfates in shampoo when you have a dry, or at least sensitive scalp. Also no alcohol. My scalp used to get flaky and itchy after one to two days with most shampoos, but it doesn't when washed with sulfate- and alcohol-free shampoos.
You know what I just Subscribed, Amazing contents man good job keep it up! Love from India 🇮🇳
this is the perfect combination of science, precision and beauty
You are the legend, mate. This was immensely useful. Cheers, mate.
I massage mid shaft until the natural moisturizer flows from the end.😳🤗😂😂😂😎
Appreciate your hard work in collecting such informations all together. 👍
My pleasure
Please do a video on hair cutting rules or tips when you're trying to grow long. If possible include an actual hair cutting part. 😍
I've seen two of your vids so far Trav and you have taught me so much about my hair that i never knew.My hairs tied back in my pic but it's around the same length as yours down.Can't believe i have been washing it wrong all these years,i have combo hair as it's really really dry halfway down and now i know why and how to look after my hair better.Thanks so much for all your help brother 🤘
The only video to all the men who wants to grow their hair.. a MUST WATCH video !!!! Thanks Travis
Great video Trav!
This actually cleared out so much, thanks man!
I have: Straight/Wavy (1/2A)
Coarse Texture
Medium-High density
Medium porosity
Combination/Oily scalp
Also, I may have dandruff as when my hair gets oily there are some tiny yellow white-ish thingies in some areas.
I’m definitely 3A, had jon snow hair once and I cut it for job interviews. Trying to grow it back now, I can’t wait to get that look again.
Information unclear.
Ended up eating dog hair.
Baki Hanma respect that name of urs
adi same dude
adi hmm have you tried deinstalling system64?
What if your dog is all might?! 🤔
@@ΣωτήρηςΙωάννου-μ7ν what if he has a stando powah?
I really like how well informed you are on hair types that aren't yours ! I'm curly, dry, and all yet you still manage to know how to care for it really well
Although he said that it’s catered to guys, I found this vid super helpful!
Can’t find my hair type, it’s fine, straight/curvy. And I think it’s receding. Have had trouble with dry scalp too
I feel like he’s gonna tell me I walked straight into an imperial ambush
Lol i found ur channel and u have straight hair like me.i have short hair but ill shave my hair in summer holiday because i go to school and i dont wanna go to school with a clean shave and ill start fully growing my hair
this vid is so helpful, I'm on my tenth month of hair growth and I've been clueless how to deal with them before watching this!
styling long hair is sooo different from styling short hair, thx for this video :)
Okay, I normally don't comment on videos, but I feel like this one deserves all my attention, because you are doing an amazing job, Trav!
From one creator to another, I really like the way you color grade and compose your videos! From one teacher to another, you are doing an amazing job in simplifying all the information! This is one of the hardest things to do, regardless the domain and there aren't many people that can successfully achieve that, especially in a 20 min video. You stayed on point and got my attention even though I kind of got the general idea of the video and got the info on my hair type. I just couldn't stop the video, even though it's 4:30 AM.
And from one doctor to a fellow colleague that actually cares about other people's healthy lifestyle, I admire that you support all of your videos with a lot of research and that you quote from actual studies. I wish my teachers in med school would've done the same research as you did...
Yeah, I'm a young dentist and a professional photographer and amateur astrophotographer that happens to pursue his creative career at the moment and I find myself teaching a photography course (for both doctors and creators) and I wanted to write you this feedack and give you a little part of my background because I actually know that proper research is indeed hardwork and I usually tell my students about awesome creators like you and I encourage them to share their view, research and experience with all of us, because the world needs a little push nowadays to get things done. And the more inspirational pillars we have in our fields of interest, the more we all get to enjoy life and what it has to offer.
If you actually read the whole message, Trav, I wanted to tell you that I just passed the awkward stage and I can't wait to build up my TH-cam channel and give a proper feedback to all of your awesome work!
Keep it up!
P. S.: The PDF you've put out for free... keeps me motivated when I remember how much hardwork and equipment money I've put out for free as a photographer in the past 8 years... and it also prooves that you can't put a price on passion and dedication.
Straight up the best hair care video I’ve seen on TH-cam, not trying to sell any of your own products, and genuinely evidence based info
One of the most thorough explanations I've see on hair types! Awesome job! Thank you for explaining. ❤️💯🔥
I have been growing my hair out for a year and a half. What you do here is really enjoyable and appreciated
Hey I'm new to the channel, just wanted the thank you for all these videos. They're super helpful as I've been growing my hair out for quite a while now, starting from basically a skin fade back and sides. Even though I know it's gonna take a while and I'm pretty comfortable with it, it's refreshing to watch your videos and helps renew interest in hair care.
This video in particular was enlightening because I knew I had wavy hair but I hadn't fathomed how complex hair types can be. Keep up the great work man.
Yo, the effort that went into this is proper admirable
I have difficulty figuring out how curly my hair is, as it gets longer it gets curlier, it starts off at around a 2c, then it gets to somewhere between a 3a or 3b, and as it gets longer the curls tighten, they tend to be the tightest in the back, I haven't had my hair reach much length, but in the back the curls would occasionally reach a 3c curl depending on how dry my hair was and how humid it was.
(Also when the back would get like that it was about 2.5 inches long, while the hair up above is about 5-6 inches now, and will go from 2c to 3b.) My hair confuses me.
At the very least as it gets longer they start to become more uniform, of course I've never grew my hair out too long (I'm trying to though) so I don't know just how curly they will get.
Skinny Wenis i have your problem. When my hair is shorter it looks completely straight but I’m growing it out and its gotten wavier. The weird thing is when i brush my hair or shower it becomes straight...
I kinda got the same thing, but it's only curly on the sides. It's a pain as I'm growing it out
@@ghettomechanicllc3070 from wavy till i think around start of curly hair, if u cut it short it Looks straight for everyone because it takes a certain amount of length for the waves /curls to kick in
and about showering, wet hair it's almost always straight for everyone lol, except like SUPER curly hair like 4a or smth around
@@ghettomechanicllc3070 The hair when you have long hair, or even medium-long which is dried fully and not wet that hair is your hair type
(i say long/medium-long hair as it takes some length for the wave/curls to kick in)
@@KobingH damn i wrote that comment a year ago my hair wasnt that long yet now its passed my shoulders and yeah its definitely not straight hair. Pretty wavy almost curly
I'm trying out a new barber tomorrow, and this vid is EXACTLY what I needed. Very informative, super in-depth, just overall hella useful, thanks brother
I’ve been trying to better understand this and you really helped. I can tell you put a lot of effort into this so thank you. Good job.
after years of combing my hair really straight (side part), i found that when i let my hair air dry, it was a little bit curly! i guess i shouldnt be too surprised as many members of my family have curly hair
Hey man! Love your videos, they’ve been very helpful in my hair growth journey. Also, nice hair man👍🏼
I have type 1 hair, and you're right my hair gets oily really quick. most of time when i wake up in the morning
8:34 Didn’t age well 😂😂
I’ve had long hair my whole life and this man blew my mind
i feel like some of the picture of type 3 and 4 hair didnt match
Yeah the 4c was actually 4b and the 4b was really 4a
@Chosen One yh thats what i thought, i have 3b hair so I was confused after seeing the picture for 3c
This is the best video of it's kind by far, I surfed the whole TH-cam and didn't find a match.. thank you
Dude. A video without bullshit, straight up science and facts and no shady influencer motive whateverthefuck? And also? At 18:10 , someone that doesn't just say "lol just wash your hair less if it's too oily", but ACTUALLY acknowledges the people that are NOT overwashing it and want advice for THAT.
Honestly man? This video is almost unreal for todays standards where every influencer is just some dishonest schmuck parroting shit. You seem actually genuine with real information and cover full topics. (Looking at the overwashing thing is the best example because I swear nobody covers it further and just says "well lol gotta be overwashing thanks bye". I get that it's obviously valid, but nobody ever talks about the people that are without a doubt not overwashing and matter of fact experiment with less washing for months to see if and what changes)
I must say I'm still confused though because I feel like for many points I'm both, dry AND oily. Which to me indicates I'm reading something about my body wrong, but I don't know what and how to fix it. You said your face gives good indication if your scalp is dry or oily. What does it mean if my face tends to be on the dry side, but gets oily insanely fast? Lotion or no lotion, my face half a day later is like the surface of a freshly oiled pan and Gordon Ramsey is ready to cook the perfect steak (idk why I went that far but I did). I get a lot of white flakes very shortly after shampooing. I do not use conditioner (is that really it? is conditioner 100% as necessary as shampoo?). I have gone with experiments where I went as far as to only shampoo my hair once a week for a couple months. Absolutely nothing changed other than me feeling very oily, dirty and miserable. My hair gets what I think is unpresentable for the public after 2 nights. Specifically nights because I feel like staying awake 24 hours my hair is not nearly as bad as if I had slept instead. Could be complete delusion, but I'm 36 years old and I have had these hair problems as long as I can think and the things I HAVE tried, I did so for a longer period of time to confirm things and frankly I have no fucking idea what to do. I can't even count the amount of different shampoos I had as well as the different kind of them as far as ingredients go. Idk if maybe I have some kind of genetic situation up there that would need a medical approach, because that's the thing I didn't do yet, but at the same time I feel like if it's just a combination of dry and oily and some itching and there's no like blood or wounds or anything than surely a normal fitting product should be sufficient? Maybe I just want it to be. Is it maybe me not using conditioner? I know so many people that just use shampoo, in fact I can count the amount of people I know on one hand that use conditioner. I got the impression from your video that regardless of scalp and hair type, everyone should use a shampoo and conditioner. The products change for each type, but any type should use both of them? Man I just wanna live in peace with my hair and not feel and look like I didn't wash my head for a year after just a day or two.
If anyone can relate to any of my nonsense and/or anyone got some advice to share, just shoot. If you want to give advice but need more info then I'm more than happy to provide that.
Regardless, thank you for the great educational video, Trav. Sadly this video is from 2020 and I didn't find it sooner, but man this should be the golden standard for a video of this purpose. Absolutely amazing.
Have a good one.
The knowledge in this video is so important. I can’t believe no one told me these things before in my life. Thank you.
We pretty much have the same hair profile although I damaged my hair in a heavily chlorinated pool and trying to get it back to health. Thanks for all your tips 🙏🏻
I used to have beautiful long curly hair, as I’ve aged (I’m 25 at the time of comment) my hairs gotten thinner and less healthy, I used to be able to get away with doing whatever and it just looks great but then I cut my hair 3 years ago and it’s been a struggle ever since to grow it out again. Don’t cut your hair boys
My hair is so weird, I got like
~5% pin straight
~45% 2a
~50% 2c mostly in the front
Nd my hair is low porosity, a bit coarse, nd I have tons of hair like really dense..
Also I'm from India, the humidity here is really high, my hair is frizzy all the time!!😔
Try the shaved look man! I did, and I thought it looked great
Aka your hair wasn't healthy
I'm asian, so my hair is just... weird...
