I’m male 16, living in Iran for clarification. (English is not my first language so sorry for any mistakes)
I have always struggled with my hair style and look, as I always cut my hair very short and uniform all around because of strict school dress code and policies.
But as I’m getting older I’m starting to want to improve myself and have better mental and physical health.
I’ve become self-conscious of face and looks after the pandemic specifically because I feel left out of many things compared to my peers. One of which is my hair style and cut.
I’m not sure how should I cut, style and maintain my hair. As I mentioned previously I always cut it short and uniform and I showered every 2-3 days, so I’d like to know how to maintain the hair.
But most importantly I don’t know what to tell my barber?
Sorry for the rant and long post.
Short hair has high maintenance because you have to cut it so often to keep it short. Long hair has styling maintenance but that can just be pulling it into a ponytail. I get my hair cut 2x a year, it’s medium length. Husband gets his cut every two weeks to keep it short.
You’ve got to spend considerably longer cleaning and conditioning long hair and while, yes, you can put it in a pony tail, you have to first brush it out. Short hair is for lazy People. Getting it cut isn’t that big a deal even if it is every two weeks as they just run a razor over it.
