What are products you guys use in your hair and how often?
Currently I'm using a paraben, sulfate, gluten free shampoo water based etc.
Not using a conditioner atm. But I think I should get one.
Noticing some very slight thinning (I'm 24)
Anyone have any hair health tips of any kind? Post them here.

Not really, I use nizoral (anti-dander, anti-thinning) every other day, with conditioner on the off days
I've noticed a huge difference. Shampooing every day is dumb as fuck
>>36752710
I have been shampooing once a week with Hanz de fuko shampoo. However I'm noticing dandruff for the first time in my life wtf?
Which conditioner do you recommend?
>>36752734
Two, in hair condition, sorta like a lotion but for hair (it's fuckin awesome). Numerous stuff out there, cant really go wrong since they are all the same, basically made with tree tea and some kind of mint
Then find a conditioner which has what you really need. I noticed thinning so i got one with milk proteins. I'd stay away from the soy protein ones
>>36752644
I eat healthy, and haven't used any hair products in 2 years. Always get compliments that my hair feels like a kitten's.
I only let cold water touch my hair/face and just dry it by rubbin a clean towel roughly.
If i don't shower for more than two days though it is a little oily, but i can just wash it in the sink.
>>36752894
>>36752839
>>36752734
Oh yah forgot about this one. No hot water AT ALL. Just use warm, almost luke warm water. After that I use super cold for about a minute

Don't worry, balding can take decades.
>>36752644
Holy shit douchebags like this remind me why I shaved my beard off after having one for 5 years. Fucking hipsters.
>>36752644
anti-dandruff shampoo since my scalp ashy af.
jojoba oil/beard balm to tame my face a bit.
I use this shampoo and conditioner made by a company called Mane and Tail. The olive oil one is fucking amazing. My dads girlfriend stole some and now she uses it too and that chick is all about staying beautiful.
On top of that I never dry my hair with a towel, I never use a hair drier, I only wash it 3 times a week and I only use cold/lukewarm water when doing so. I am in the process of growing my hair so I need to look after it as much as possible. The hair on my head now is going to still be on my head in 2 years time so I can't afford to damage it. Hair has never looked healthier but I'm in that stage where my hair is too short to be long and too long to be short. I just look like a dick at the moment.
>>36753231
There is nothing wrong with beards. Grow it out again, it is just hair. Most normal people aren't aware of memes.

What do you do about dandruff because its really getting to me.
I refuse to brush my hair infront of my girlfriend because of it. I've asked her tips but she doesn't know any.

My hairline is receding badly and I'm only turning 21 in a few weeks, I have long hair too.
How do I stop this monstrosity happening?
>>36753332
Rogaine
>>36753403
Literally just that?
>>36753435
You have to use it indefinitely though.
>>36753435
And finasteride, Minoxidil (rogaine) will help keep your hair from thinning further, don't think it helps with a receding hairline though.
>>36753332
You can't. Don't trust these retards who tell you to slap a bunch of chemicals on your head, at best you'll only stall the inevitable.
>>36752644
A woman who does salon work and work on male models told me years ago;
Stay away from hair gel or spray.
Shampoo with moisture enriched type and into the hair and scalp.
Conditioner, also moisture enriched but only in hair and not on scalp.
After shower massage your scalp while having your head upside down for blood flow for about five 6 minutes.
>>36753499
Don't listen to this guy. If you want to keep your hair, use thse 'chemicals'. They work on the vast majority of men.
>>36753499

If that was true baldness wouldn't exist in this day and age, but we all know that's not true.
>>36752644

Minox bro. All the gluten free shampoo in the world won't help
>>36753562
>If that was true baldness wouldn't exist in this day and age
Most people can't afford them.
>>36753586

>>36753586
Most people in Africa maybe. People in Europe and America can, yet 1 in 5 men still goes bald before the age of 30. Why is that?

Hair genetics? My mom and dad both have great hair so I lucked out.
>>36753618
>Why is that?
Most people don't even use them.
>>36753616
The point is, for the vast majority of men who use fin and min they get to keep or prolong the time they have their hair. Keeping your hair as long as possible should be worth it right?
Some men do have sides and they are expensive, but you might as well try if your hair is in JUST territory.
>>36752644
That dude looks like such a try hard
Can one man be any more insecure?

No poo, just rinsing water for 2 years and 8 months. Ni cheat days at all, and you know what, I'll keep on further.

regular no salt shampoo every day and hydrating hair cream once a week
to comb it i use a strong matte wax while its still a little wet and when it dries i use another matte pomade just to give the final touch, that way i can comb my hair like a pidgeotto without a problem
>>36752644
Centrum for men
Sleep
Vegan diet
The above ones turned my hair from meh to marvellous. Also:
- henna (almost brown/black blend, still some red-ish blend) once a month
- henna (total brown/black, no red components) once a month, 1 week later
My hair is light brown. With the above I cover 100% of the white hair (a somewhat red henna is needed for that purpose before using the total black one) . The result is: no red blend, not even in the slightest. Henna will turn your hair colour gradually and pretty consistent with your natural hair colour - if you have white hair, you won't notice immediately a progression. If you do it right, it covers white/grey hair wonderfully (I have a spot with white hair only due to failed anaesthesia, now nobody can guess it)
Henna also thickens the hair and gives it a protective layer. I buy henna at lush.
Eventually, a chemical-free shampoo with camomile

>chemical-free shampo
Do you know what a chemical is?
>>36754265
Sure, no parabens, SLES, SLS, oil derivatives and so on. Not even parfumes.
Yes, I know that water is a chemical. No, I used "chem" in a colloquial, not autistic way. Sue me.
>>36754187
For the body I use only castille soap (organic, no chems... and so on) and I wash with cold water only (rarely I have an introductory phase @ 20C if I have doms)
>>36753792
Did you tried long enough? My first 3 weeks where greasy as well (which is logical). It may not work for everyone...
>>36754057
Don't know man, just rinsing water (100% and only water, no other shit) and moving the fuck out with my hands and that's it. It won't smell like a lemon or ment, but that's obvious I guess.
Since the third month more or less I could stay even 3 days without looking greasy, so that's good (I shower everyday btw).
How do I stop my hair from being greasy as fuck?
I have very thin hairs (meaning not balding, but the single hair is thin) and I literally have to shower every single morning because It's oily as fuck after a night.
I shampoo daily, is that bad?
>>36754391
Stop using SLES and SLS, they are too aggressive and counter-productive for a daily use
>>36754408
What is that?
kek, when I google that I get a Mercedes and a Linux Server as result
>>36754433
Its autism speaking to you. Without sls your shampoo is worthless.
Its the main detergent, sodium lauryl sulphate
>>36754391
You need to shampoo less frequently. Do it 2-3 times a week
my hair looks thinner if i dont shampoo everyday.
>>36754433
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_lauryl_ether_sulfate
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_dodecyl_sulfate
These are the two most common components in shampoo & detergents in general.
>>36754459
Absolutely untrue.
>>36754408
i use an organic shampoo without any of that shit and i still need to shampoo every morning or my hair will look thin and greasy.
>>36754459
SLS and SLES are just two of the possible foaming agents. None of those are necessary for making a good soap or detergent.
>>36754481
Diet? Age?
>>36754481
Try eating less milk/dairy; more potatoes & broccoli as >>36753315 suggested; check zinc and limit free sugars.
I literally eat broccoli every single day, no kidding.
I dont drink milk.
I supplement 15mg zinc / day.
Hair is still greasy and thin.
>>36754506
26 healthy diet of fats protein and fiber.
>>36754474
Did you know the first soap known to be used was using rancid coconut flesh? Thats where the lauryl part comes from.
How is it untrue? It literally desinfects the surface and denatures free protons
>>36752644
Buzzcut
Wash with water
Done
>>36753496
It does a bit, but not much. If you want to slow it or stop it you can go the finasteride route, but you're basically on it forever or until you don't want your hair.
Ill use pumpkin seed oil topically for DHT blocking though, biotin for hair health and Nizoral and a dht shampoo to help.
>>36754545
potatoes and broccoli are going to make my hair thicker?

Beijing resident spotted
the only valid hair option is a sophisticated longhair
if you can't pull it off then you are literally a nigger
any style that leaves part of the scalp hairless is extremely barbaric and the epitome of savagery
>>36754853
>that hideous face
fun fact: Scandinavians (and long-haired Europeans) were barbarians 2000 years ago; there's no such thing like a "sophisticated" longhair.
Buzzcut is manly, unless you go for the faggot "buzzcut on the sides only" style.
Otherwise short hairs have always been the more sophisticated.
>>36754595
yes
>>36754853
long hair gets caught in things, and it is literally useless.
Stop talking about barbarians, that word was invented by romans, and barbarians were known for long, unkempt, hair. The roman soldier kept short hair in order to maintain function.
There is a reason why we associate long hair with women. It makes you useless.
So frig off.
>Pic related, allowed to grow hair and beard to any length, they choose this.

>>36754981
>buzzcut
>fashionable
Buzzcuts are pragmatism incarnate, it's like giving up on hair and just shaving it all off since you're too lazy/tasteless/barbarian to care about your hair
unless you're in the military or something then you're basically a nigger for having one
>>36754981
Long hair has been associated with nobility since the Greeks
>>36755061
>pragmatism
>a bad thing
>>36755133
exactly, don't confuse bad, unkempt, raggy long hair with silky, regal, superior long hair
having short hair is mundane as fuck, you don't wanna be a mundane, do you?
also If you're blond, not sporting a full head of mane is outright heretical and a waste of aryan power
>>36755174
eveyone and anyone can be pragmatic, it requires no effort
it takes dedication and effort however to look artisan and aesthetic
>>36752644
>look at how manly I am with my manly beard, my manly hair and my manly suspenders i spent hours styling for this photo like a goddamn sissy faggot xD
>>36755061

pragmatism is manly, sophisticated is feminine.

hurr, muh masculinity
per your definition all art is feminine, yet women are largely inept at art and the greatest artists through history were exclusively male
realise that being 100% masculine makes you a super degenerate and certainly a savage and a barbarian, like slavs for example
I'm not telling you to go around being a transfaggot, but a man who has no feminine aspects (such as the ability to show love and care) is basically a nigger
>>36755302
>per your definition all art is feminine,
nice rhetorical fallacy. art != sophisticated.
>yet women are largely inept at art and the greatest artists through history were exclusively male
through history females belonged to the kitchen and artists were flamboyant homosexuals.

What's even the point of lifting weights (which isn't needed for your survival and is thus a non-pragmatic activity) if you're just gonna be a pragmatic, boring normie anyway?
do you literally believe that strength > aesthetics?
My god you are a bunch of faggots.
Not everything needs to be a big fucking deal. Anything more than maintaining personal hygiene is narcissism and makes you a woman.
Clean haircut. Shaved or trimmed beard. Shower with soap. Use deodorant. If you do anything more I guarantee you're wanting to take it up the arse.

Hair is mostly down to genetics from what I know.

i'm not sure if this is a troll thread. i'm 38 i have long hair. i get complements on it a few times a week. i wash it with hot water everyday, i use panteen (whatever is on sale or clearance) I drink a lot of alcohol, milk and general eat like shit, I dry it with a towel and sometimes follow up with a hair dry. I brush the shit out of it. I dont use gel, hair spray, pomade or any of that.
Sometimes for unknown reasons it gets greasy I then change shampoo for a few days to whatever else is around.

Egg yolks I've heard good things about but I never got to try it out
I co-wash daily and clarify with a sulfate free shampoo once a week or so
I honestly don't even need to shampoo if I don't use styling products with a lot of silicones
Shampoo less frequently. Optionally use coconut oil. Make sure your showers and TOO hot.
oh and specific product recommendations depend on your hair, go check the wiki at plebbit/r/haircarescience
>>36752734
There are two types of dandruff
>>36753332
You can't. Let it go and get a hair transplant in the future
>>36753332
Finasteride.
Ignore rogaine comments unless they also recommend fin.
Don't fall for the solo rogaine meme, however neither fin nor minox will help much with hairline, it has a decent chance of stopping the balding though.
Quit the treatment if you feel any sides that come from the fin (so not your mental state because you're scared of the sides), don't continue usage if you notice sides because they can stick permanently if you do.
That's about it really.
