hair help, please...

[alfa147x]

I have hair that is about 5-6 inches long and very curly, the problem is that i like my hair and that it is long but when it drys its get kinda clumpy... the hair just is not loose enough, also if i grow it out a bit longer its gets puffy, too puffy. I enjoy long hair but i hate it when it either clumps or gets puffy

I'll post picture in a few...

I'm sure there's a question in there somewhere. Let me find it.

EDIT: Conditioner? Hair straightener? Gel? HAIRSPRAY??

If so it is good luck you grow it long long time.

As a man with curly hair, I'll let you know it sucks. But once you figure out how you like it there are ways around the fluffyness problem. My solution, keep it long. The length weighs it down and then gel to keep it in place. Not too crispy gel but something that adds some weight.


Some guys can get away with short curly hair and some guys can get away with long frizzed out (got shocked looking) hair.

Good luck.

EDIT: Heh... That's not curly...

It looks like you just need a good hair gel. With the gel, your hair will clump more, in a way that looks stylish. It won't look neglected like it does now.

Warning: Do not read the OP with a dirty mind. "5-6 inches long" "curly hair" "loose enough" "it gets puffy"...

Looking for a permanent fix? Go to a salon and get it straightened.

By the length of it, you can't use a flatiron yet. I really can't tell, it's a really bad picture and angle to go. After seeing how long it really is compared to your face and knowing just how thick it is I can help.

This is from probably the only guy here that actually goes to a stylist.

 

[theprodigalrebel]

You and I have the same kind of hair. There is no hope for us.

The best thing I could do was keep it about 10 inches long but I got sick of that look after two years. Now that it's shorter, it has a mind of its own and just points in different directions unless I tame it with gel or hairspray.

 

[Whoozyerdaddy]

Do what I do...

Find your beard trimmer
Set the rake to the #1 position
Take it all off
Never pay for another bad haircut again (PROFIT!)

My hair gets kinda retarded like that when it's long. I prefer to cut it short (kinda like a crew cut but a little longer). While it's short I use mousse, because it's not as stiff as gel. When my hair gets too long I don't use anything at all in it, I just form it while it's semi-dry. And then when I get tired of dealing with it, I get it cut again.

When I was younger my hair was real straight, but once I cut it short (and kept it short for awhile) it began to get wavy.

grow it longer.

I don't have the five hours I would have to wait for your pic to download but do whatever you want.
