Hair Care for Men

Hair care for men is similar to the basic hair care outlined above, e.g.,use a shampoo suitable for your air type. Men may, however, need to shampoo more frequently, even daily. If you need to shampoo every day, use a shampoo meant for dry hair.

Men also need to use a conditioner at least twice a week, preferably after each shampoo. If you use a hair dressing agent, the current trend is to use an oil-free one, which most companies have.

Dandruff shampoos can be harsh on the hair--especially ifyour hair has been chemically processed. So use them only when needed.

Normal Hair

It is shiny yet not greasy and fairly easy to manage.

It flies about a little a day after the set but it soon settles down and looks good for about a week.

Oily Hair

Looks good for a day or two after shampooing but then quickly becomes lifeless.

Groups of hair cling together in unattractive strands and the head feels dirty.

It often has the problem of dandruff.

Dry Hair

It is difficult to control dry hair after shampooing. Looks dull and has ends that are dry and split. Even just before shampooing the ends look dry.

The head too feels dry and sometimes itchy. Dry hair breaks of very easily.

Sometimes there are dry flakes of skin around the hair line.

Combination Hair

It is the combination of both greasy and dry hair.

It is usually fairly long and the hair nearest the head is greasy while the ends are dry.

After shampooing, the hair looks good except for the ends.

Ends look difficult to set smoothly, split and lighter in color than the roots.

But by the time hair needs shampooing again, ends look quite good.
