So so unfair

Why do people put so much energy into projecting identity politics on a superfluous detail like hair? Who cares? It's all just a vanity concern, selfishly obsessed with what others think about how you look.
Does your hair make you have some intrinsic identity to others that you are or are not going for? Fuck you, I don't care.
Do you authentically care, yourself?
Maybe you care about the politics - I can understand that. There is legitimate fear around legislating serious, dangerous things to your identity (not hair). Why the fuck are you spending your time and energy on hair???

Long haired cismale here. I can use the cheapest shower gel and look magnificent.
Hello name sibling! I’m a long haired lady person.

The amount of upvotes this boomer shit has is just fucking embarrassing. Gender has absolutely zero impact on hair. It's all genetics. I'm male and my hair is long and thin as fuck.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Hormones can play a role as well. Anecdotally, my wife's hair during pregnancy became fuller and less brittle. Duckduckgo "pregnancy hair". A monthly cycle, being on hormonal birth control, etc. will likely have some effect. I definitely agree that genetics does play a bigger role, but claiming that gender/sex plays no role is definitely incorrect.

It's not about men vs. women, it's short hair vs. long hair. Most men don't have long hair, the dish soap works for short hair but depending on your hair type you want to use something better for long hair.
I wash my very long hair 2-3 times a week and often get compliments from women. Many express some variation of "I wish my hair would grow that long" but none of them like the answer. "I do nothing to it. No heat treatments, no bleach, no color, no tight braids, no styling. Shampoo approximately every other day and condition weekly."
(Dish soap would probably strip the natural oils too aggressively, even for short hair. Rough on the scalp.)

Dish soap on hair is actually awful, leaves it dry, clumped/stuck together, and unmanageable. I got something in my hair when I was under 10, all I remember is it was SO BAD I willingly went to wash my hair.
I have a similar routine to you I don't blow dry either it is towel dry, except I condition each time I wash, and get the same responses from women who equally do not like the "I wash, condition, and cut it (well its been a few years now but) every 3 months, and do nothing else."

Length and type of hair is what matters. Men with a typical short haircut with straight hair do not benefit from conditioner.

As a guy with long curly hair, it is not that simple.
True, when I plan well enough it's glorious: shower the night before, CG shampoo bar + stay in conditioner and I can just run my fingers trough my hair to style it the day after
When I shower before an event it's a very thin line between too frizzy or too greasy and flat.

I bet we’d look glorious, side by side, hair billowing in our combined, sparkling winds.

Counterpoint: look at any rock band from the 1970s to see what just plain washing with shampoo (very occasionally, apparently) produces. If they ever invent time travel, I'm going to let everybody else handle killing baby hitler (and baby cheetoh I suppose) and go back to the '70s with some conditioner. I will rule the rock world!
Edit: I might also try at least mentioning to people how fucked up it was that these guys were raping 14-year-old girls all the time (and sometimes the same 14-year-old girl).

It's always kind of amused me how grunge rock was marketed as a fresh air alternative to hair bands, and yet ... everybody still featured long hair.

I think eyebrows count as "top half of my head", unfortunately. I can sit and watch those fuckers grow in the mirror.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I prefer those too as the regular soap based shampoo leaves my hair very dry and electrostatic, and my scalp flaking. Well, I use baby shampoo, but dog shampoo is chemically almost the same.
