How to Use Bobby Pins―For Guys

[@JonathanRodd]

While this video was helpful, you may want to consider shooting these tutorials differently. 90 % of the footage was of your face when most of the work you were doing with your hair was on the back of your head, so the viewer couldn't really see what you were doing. It would have made sense to either stick to the rear camera for longer periods, or do a split screen / picture in picture approach where you can see both views at once while you're describing and demonstrating.

[@andrewreed85]

Very true gentlemen... but with hair as curly as mine... i CANNOT brush it when not wet, its just a rats nest of pain and terror. I usually brush it in the shower with conditioner in it at the time... then is like combing butter!! *Sigh*

@Yak1B I do that too... I just find doing it innthe shower is way easier. *shrugs*

Super on the money with the pins, creates totally different options. You're undercut and still that much lush hair, I'm feeling tinges of the green-eyed monster. But Andrew.... I've actually never seen anyone handle wet hair so roughly. That's 10 lashes with a wet shoe lace ....hehehe and 2 thumbs up for being such a stunning Longhairs ambassador.

[@marchabuyuan-llanes684]

@SomethingAwfull Curly hair requires more care and more specific maintenance than straight hair. You guys should look up the curlygirl method, I know, the name's a bit offputting but it's a care routine for curly hair that makes sure it's healthy, nice looking, and easy to maintain. If you want one place to start, don't use brushes like the guy did in this video. Only detangle in the shower with a wide toothed comb/denman brush.

[@its_EZ]

Hey could you give us some tips how you style your hair when you‘re going to the gym so you‘re not leaning on the man bun for example. It‘s always in the way when I‘m barbell pressing etc...

[@chikirin9349]

Just tie it up nobody at the gym cares.

[@its_EZ]

Chikirin you mean with a headband? that‘ll work for now maybe but when they‘re longer it will be another story.

[@reeyees50]

very late, but i hope you read this. use very loose ties or buns in the gym, after the workout be sure to untie your hair, let it breath a lil and also brush out some of that sweat in there or wash it like some women do.

[@song1of1fire1]

Do a really high bun/tail, like on the actual top of your head, or a loose low one that will sit in the nape of your neck. That one will get sweaty but will let you just lay back on it easy. Headband or a half tail are also options.

[@TriggaWarning]

[@paulofernando7858]

[@nabranestwistypuzzler7019]

TriggaWarning Yeah

[@WDMurphy]

lol yep, that's why my hair looks like I have a receding hairline (or maybe I'm just getting old) but I stopped and started using lose clips. I don't care how stupid I look wearing them.

[@TriggaWarning]

@@WDMurphy You should try those spiral hair ties. I use Invisibobble, but I think the others are also fine. Besides I think it looks better on a man when it's a little messy and not that tight. The Longhairs ties also work great, if you don't pull it back so hard.

[@WDMurphy]

@@TriggaWarning Been using Jaw clips, twisting the tail with a loop up then just clamping the jaw clip lol. I'm a redhead and have really fine hair. I'll get some and try it out. Thought about using a banana clip but that might look to unmanly lol. At this point, I really don't care what others think just if I like it or not. Thanx for the advice tho.

Could you guys please make a video about how to cover up bald edges in hairlines? I am trying to grow my hair out like a high-ball, with a bandana/headband, but then everyone can see my bald edges! It is so annoying! Please help me out here!!

[@EagDesert]

I think I know what you're talking about, it's not really bald edges but just where the hairline recedes back at the corners? Lots of people have that. I agree, that would be a good tutorial idea. There a number of techniques you can use to disguise it. The most easy is just using a tad bit of the hair from the top of your head and kind of feathering it down along that edge, then hair spray it. Or pull a little length forward away from the hair tie on the sides and do the same. You just need to loosen up that area so you can make the hair flow the way you want it to instead of flowing directly from the hairline back. Alternatively, you could leave a bit of fringe loose along the hair line and tuck it behind your ears which hides those corners.

I got past any insecurity.. I used to go to a tiny old lady beauty shop next to my apartment building for my haircuts.. typical grandma beauty shop.. the ladies that shampooed and cut my hair were even older than my grandmother I was in my 20s at the time .. it was awkward at first but it didn’t take long to relax in the chair during a shampooing or haircut . And, they cut hair much better than the barber.

[@curlyhairdudeify]

Bobby pins are great for keeping hair out your eyes, and keeping that lock of hair from draping down your eyes... I don't like the look. I also, used to wear a hair band to tie my hair... Needless to say, I just say F-IT, and tried a hair claw. Then, I went to the store and bought a fish skeleton shaped hair claw in black, and one on navy blue... Both matte finish. Yeah, they are hair savers. I tried them, and I'm definitely never using hair bands again... They pulled my hair, plucked my hairs out, matted my hair, and wjr. I took the band off it had a lot of hair intertwined in it.

[@lemonbeverage]

Before I start this, I currently have been growing my hair for about 2 and a half years. I was the same awkward-length-look for around the same time as well. It was only up until a couple months ago in October when i started feeling comfortable with my hair and people actually started making compliments about it. What I did was simply just start put my hair in a bun/ponytail whenever I went out. I tried new hair part styles and opted for a part in the middle. I was like that for around the same time as well.

You have long hair, experiment with it, ask others if they have a new idea for you to style your hair, there are so many possibilities. I hope this helps, but in the end if you want to cut it that's perfectly fine.

L C You're still in the awkward stage, just wait a few months more, at 1 year looks okay, and at 1.5 year looks great in most cases, also i part my hair in the middle because is easier to style at least for me
