Paid 7 dollars to find out what type of hair i have: male

[HanaKuroi]

Okay default. Maybe, but my hubby and son always make sure male is checked.

However he is posting pics like a boss. <sideeye

And the naked back picture? Why and when was that taken?

this thread is a mess

 

[abcd09]

Come on guys, he wants some advice

Have we ever had regular male members on this forum lol

OP, most people here aren't going to know anything about Korean perms because many of our hair is already like that. It's not common among black women to get something that makes your hair curlier. You either straighten it, or wear it natural, which is already naturally curly. There's no trying to make hair kinkier on this board, so we have no idea how to help ya there.

If you want braids, listen to manter (sp?) and continue to condition your hair, otherwise I don't think we know that much about men's styles since, well, we're not men. And there aren't any other men on here either to ask as well.

So you may not find the advice you are looking for.

Yea I'm confused now what is going on? I'm not even sure what the thread is about anymore.

 

[naheda72]

Maybe you can look up Ahmad Givens(real from I love NY) for some hairstyles for men with long hair. This doesn't help with the kinkiness, but it could give you styling options.

 

[MzSwift]

Perhaps you can try an Ayurveda paste. Amla and Brahmi seem to make my hair more coily. There are tons of ayurveda threads around here if you're interested.

I agree with SmilingE, try the conditioner only method and you may be surprised by your hair.

*goes back to lurking and side-eyeing*

It's about the OP and his exotical hair woes

[JulietWhiskey]

POOK!

I love you. And I don't even know you.

 

[KurlyNinja]

Wow 10 pages? Wish I got some love like this when I first joined. There's enough info here to make you hip length in 2 months.

 

[HanaKuroi]

Fine,

I am done teasing and clowning.

Op there is dome good advice in this thread. Good luck growing your hair out. If you decide to cut your hair after growing it long, MAKE SURE YOU COME BACK HERE TO OFFER IT TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER!

BTW update your profile.

Love, peace and hair grease

 

[Keen]

Welcome to the board. I'm sure you'll get all the help you need regarding your hair and so much more

I busted out laughing thinking you are wrong for this. But you are so right.

Sorry, star treatment is reserved for men wit good hurr and white people.

 

[leiah]

Your hair looks like mine would if I brushed it. Don't brush it. Detangle it with conditioner when it's wet, put some product in to hold the curl, and air dry it without touching it.

 

[Orchid1992]

Lawd, beans08 just reminded me of that thread a new, white member started. People were calling members "uncle Tom's" for helping the girl out.

 

[aasem]

I'm definitely who I say I am. I've been mobile all day so no updating. If you don't believe me Facebook me "Aasem Deiab"

The thread for me was indenturing my hair so I could figure out how to style it while it's short. Yes I actually want kinky hair. It's more manageable while long.

You don't have to give your info and you don't have to prove anything. This is ridiculous. Your post got my eye because we have new members everyday that come in with the same questions as a newbie, with little to no replies.

And as for the pics , I'm sure you did a search and saw newbies posting tons of pics so you followed suit.

I think you should really need to learn to manage and care for your texture before you experiment with chemicals!

There is a wealth of info on here. Good luck on your journey.

Good points. But we do have a few men although they have curlier textures.

There's tkj25 you can see his fotki here: http://members.fotki.com/tkj25/about/

and applebananas who has a youtube channel I think...

they'd both know more about styling for men.

 

[BlackHairDiva]

Y'all need to calm down...

He's a guy, with 2c/3a hair. End of thread.

Not just any guy...North Africfan Brotha....I`m baffled...how the heck did you find this site!!! Make sure to invite some more!!!

SIgned.....Congolese(kinshasa), Belgian and English and lineage from Ghana as well.

WELCOME Aasem!!!

Oh and please stay!!! I`m sure you can contribute a lot in the relationship sections.... It would be nice to have a man's point of view on a lot of things.

 

[PinkPeony]

What's so hard to manage about your hair OP?
Whatever you do don't brush it while it is dry.
I'd also invest in a good wide-toothed comb and then brush your hair while it's drenched in conditioner.
I don't think we can help you with making your hair coarser but you can learn how to deine your hair so it frizzes less.

I think *twists*would be a good style for you, if you don't know what they are there are tons of youtube videos.

 

[aasem]

I'll stick around a bit since I mean I already paid.

Anyway when I tried to ponytail it I couldn't make it a smooth one, hair stuck out and everything. I couldn't wear it down because it was at my waste and got in my way, and my bosses boss didn't like it

OK you need to moisturize your hair... deep conditionner. Also putting a little bit of argan oil on the hair before bed time will help the hair be smoother.

If still you have that issue...it`s time to look for a humidiy block...you can start with aveda antu humectant.

 

[aasem]

Can someone direct me to the hair growth tips? After I have a tiny bush I'll start using them lol

 

[candy626]

@aaesm

I know you have been bombarded with responses but if you take anything away from this thread it should be:

1)Purchase and use a conditioner after every shampoo

2)Use a comb in favor of a brush to preserve your natural texture

3)Do not chemically alter your hair.

If you want to encourage curls/waves, buy some hair gel and google "Scrunching." This technique works well for people with your hair type.

 

[aasem]

Okay I'm home for the night I'll begin answering everyone's questions 1 by 1 all the way back from the first page in order sorry for the delay

 

[applebananas]

I do not have youtube channel

I am a woman.

 

[aasem]

I would say in the type 2 as well. One thing for sure you would have made one of three things: 1) save a horse ( lol... Thinking of Martin Lawrence), 2) made someone a happy weave wearer,or 3) truly blessed some cancer survivor with a very nice wig. You have beautiful hair. How do you care for your hair? My reasons for asking is not that I have the same type, it is just that I many men do minimal to their hair and it often seems to out grow many females and in a lot of cases look better. Also, a guy on this forum what would you say have learned about hair or women for that matter... Smiling I know that is a loaded question and please everyone let him honestly speak and want to stay on here. It is nice having you here.

What I have learned about hair? With long hair I got compared to a god often whereas short hair I got a sexy lumberjack.

It seems like everyone wants hair opposite if their kind. The grass is always greener I guess.


What have I learned about women? They love to be challenged, and teased. Lol

 

[aasem]

Where's the bald pics?

Sent from my iPhone 4s using LHCF

Theyre in the thread somewhere lol

 

[Orchid1992]

lol wtf???

 

[aasem]

A mans

aasem
loving the tats

Thank you

 

[SerenavanderWoodsen]

Thanks all. Idk if these help but the is after washing before brushing

I missed these pics initially. I cannot believe you cut this nor that you want it coarser. I do all kinds of damage to make my hair loose and wavy like that.

Personally, I do not believe you want to make your hair coarser. I think you came here because you know you have the type of hair we love and you wanted compliments and attention.
