It’s time to talk about our hair.
Of course, it seems to be a bit cooler these days for men to talk about their hair. In my eyes, that’s a good thing. Let’s take a look at the increase in popularity of male hair trends, as well as the things you can do to get in on it.
The trend
It seems to be true that the vast majority of men don’t care too much about their hair. Sure, they’re don’t want it to make them look like a fool. But for the most part they’re okay without having to spend a long time styling it. But the younger generation of men are definitely getting into on the hair care trends.
Men’s hair care products have been on the rise for a good few years now. But things have really taken off recently. Sales are expected to increase by 11% in the UK by 2020, for example. You can read more about it at cosmeticsbusiness.com.
It seems that teens and young adults are definitely okay with making more of an effort with their hairdo. Why is that, exactly? Is it because, as many lament, men are “becoming more feminine”? Well, if taking care of yourself and indulging in some styling now and then is only the territory of one gender? Then that’s a sad state of affairs. Whatever the reason, let’s just go with it!
Styling ideas
When young men care more about their hair, then young male celebrities will care more about their hair. And when that happens, even more young men will care about their hair. It’s basically an infinite feedback loop, hence why sales are only going to increase.
If you’re interested in getting into hair styling, then you’ll probably need to experiment a little first. More and more men are getting a bit tired with their current cut. They want less “neutral” hair. They want their hair to be “dope” (or something). If that’s the case with you, then you should talk to a barber or hairstylist. They know what they’re talking about when it comes to hair (obviously). If you want to try some changes at home, you might want to play around with some gel before taking scissors to anything.

Lessening damage
Here’s something that very few articles about hair seem to mention. Sure, we want our cuts to be modern and cool. We’ll experiment with gel, wax, different cuts, different lengths, etc. But the best thing you can do to keep your hair looking good is to take care of it. I’m talking about real hair care, without the need for products.
Not that I’m telling you not to use products, of course. But you might want to consider some lifestyle changes, or some more natural methods, to keep your hair looking good in the long term. A healthier lifestyle definitely helps keep your hair strong and attractive. Men who smoke, don’t sleep enough, and get stressed out are all damaging their hair. If you attack your hair with a lot of heat, you’re taking away essential oils it needs to thrive. Read more at webmd.com.
