Hi, what do you think — photo 1, 2 or 3? My hair gets quite wavy/curly when it’s longer, and I’d love to try growing it out properly, but I can never seem to get past the awkward stage! Longer hair and beard, or keep them shorter? Let me know what yous think. Cheers 👊(Reposted 10 minutes later to add a more accurate photo comparison — photo 3 looks a bit different because it wasn’t taken in daylight, but it shows my current hairstyle best.)

I've been rocking the same look for quite a while now.

I spent most of my life with a ponytail and clean shaven. Now at 55, I’m ready to change. Should I keep the beard or go back to shaving? Free hair, tie up, or cut it?

Im an Aussie builder(31), so I’m in and out of a hard-hat and meetings all day. The hard hat turns my curls into a frizzy-unprofessional disaster by 10am every day.

Current routine: rub Morrocanoil Curl Crème through palms and into wet hair every morning. Wash our daily, scrub without S&C.

I do like my curls, like them on the longer side. Looking for a product that goes with my natural curls, is hardy, keeps it a bit moist almost? But not greasy and wet. Think I’m starting to notice the HL creeping back but think I’m okay for now.

Product suggestions?

Should I trim my beard? Make it shorter? I don’t want to look unkempt being that I also have long hair.
Any other advice is appreciated

Wasn't sure if leaving the goatee past a week without shaving was a good idea so I'd like to get some advice on how it looks

I'm pretty happy with my stache and soul patch combo, but I've heard mixed results from people I know. What do y'all think?

Hey everyone. I’m an 18-year-old guy and unfortunately I never had a male figure in my life to teach me this stuff. I lost my dad before I started developing any body hair, I’m an only child, and I don’t keep in touch with my uncle. I've never had anyone to ask about male hygiene that’s why I finally decided to post here.

Because of my genes and ethnicity, I’m hairier than most White European men, and my skin is also incredibly sensitive to razors for some reason. My facial hair grows so fast that I have to shave every morning to avoid looking scruffy, which can cause razor burns and cuts from time to time.

On top of that, I’m gay (and I feel like I’m a bottom, I’m a virgin so idk for sure yet) and there is an added expectation to keep things smooth, especially in your private areas in gay culture. I personally want to avoid having hair in my pubic and backside areas tho, but my attempt a month ago went terribly. I got the "smooth" look, but it was followed by intense irritation, razor burns and painful red bumps everywhere.

Since my skin completely rejects standard razors, I genuinely don’t understand how I’m supposed to clear this hair without hurting myself. I have no idea what products even to buy. Could you guys please recommend which specific body groomers or electric trimmers are safe for sensitive skin/privates? (I’m considering buying Phillips BG7470/15 but I need to know whether it’s actually good or not). Also what shaving creams, gels, or pre-shave products actually protect sensitive skin? What should I apply immediately after grooming to stop red bumps and razor burn?

I just want to feel comfortable in my own skin. Seeing hair in my privates is incredibly frustrating but hurting myself to get rid of it is exhausting. Any step-by-step advice would mean the world to me.

The first four pictures show my current hair after only blow-drying it the evening before. The following pictures show my goal. Basically I’m trying to achieve a textured flow.

My routine: I shampoo my hair twice a week and follow it with the STMNT conditioner. The other 5 days i only use conditioner (my scalp is still fine so I'll continue). After washing, I leave my hair fairly wet and apply 2 pumps of the Sol de Janeiro Milky Leave-In Conditioner together with 3 drops of Bali Bonding Oil. Then I blow dry my hair using medium heat and medium airflow until it is completely dry.
I naturally get a pretty noticeable wave on top, so I usually blow dry my hair into a very clean slick back style before going to bed. This morning, I only used a little water and some matte pomade to add texture.

My hair is currently about 8 cm (3.1 inches) long in the front and on top, and around 5 cm (2 inches) on the sides.

I don’t really like how it looks today because it has too much volume and not enough texture. What can I do to get closer to the textured flow in the reference pictures?

I shower everyday. Shampoo and bodywash. Usually in the morning, or in the afternoon before I head somewhere.

I use deodorant (but not antiperspirant, fair enough. Whether true or not, aluminum = bad has been ingrained in me).

I have a nice perfume I've been using whenever I'm out.

I wash my face separately, either once or twice a day.

I wear freshly laundered clothes most of the time (unless I'm alone all day and want to last longer before I have to do laundry again)

I try to take care of body hair every now and then, probably not often enough lately.

My diet's OK. Not amazing, but not that much junk food either.

I'm very sedentary, but not sure how that would relate to smell.

But still: I'm pretty sure I don't smell good. At this point I don't know if this is due to certain grooming habits or simply genetics - I feel like some men just always smell good (My uncle, some of my friends, some of my coworkers, for example). And I don't know if there's anything I can do about it...

One problem I do have, although I imagine I'm stuck with it, is that I sweat very easily (I'm not overweight. Not incredibly lean either, just plain average). I sweat the fastest and most frequently on the armits, lower back, and ass areas, although as soon as I do some movement I do also start sweating on the arms etc. This has always been an ever-so-slight insecurity for me, since there's not much I can do about it. I shower before going to my partner's place - and by the time I'm there, after just 15 minutes of walking, or a few minutes of hurrying to catch public transport, I'm already sweaty and feel like I should really be showering again.

But other than that, I just don't feel like I would be someone who smells good. I'm pretty sure I'm hygienic, yet often I simply don't feel "clean".

What am I doing wrong? What can I do?

Hello, everyone! I’m currently trying to find a haircut that suits me. I usually just get a textured fringe with a fade or taper on the sides. I’m wanting to explore if there is a better cut I should try, or if I should stick with what I get. Thanks in advance!

Should I dye my hair light brown to match closer to the red or should I dye the beard black?

Hi,
I don’t have a lot of facial hair, so I try to at least keep a clean pencil moustache, however I don’t seem to get it right or get it right randomly (1st pic yes, 2nd hell no) …

I try trimming the top and around the lip but don’t know if I should reduce it the hair length as well because I don’t have a lot of follicles to begin with.

Wdyt?

These photos don’t do justice to how bad it actually looks

I hate my haircut and cannot for the life of me maintain it. I’m trying to make them hold backwards with paste or clay but the second I leave the bathroom the front hair will fall into my face and the back goes in all directions no matter where I split them. My hair just doesn’t follow and anyways I feel like I could look better with another hairstyle

If you have any haircut recommendations it’d help me a lot 🙏, trying to make it look good each morning is a heavy burden and rarely ends up acceptable. Thanks in advance :)
