Thick hair in men
Modern guys always strive to look fashionable and stylish. But to create a spectacular look, clothes alone are not enough - you also need a stylish hairstyle. The choice of haircut will depend on the type of hair: thick or sparse, straight or curly. In this article, we will focus on the thick strands, which have long become the subject of dreams of many men.
Is it good or bad to have thick hair?
At all times, thick and well-groomed curls were considered an indicator of health. Most often, the density and appearance are due to genetics, and if the strands are naturally rare, you can add volume to them exclusively visually. Most of the thick hair is like this since childhood, and you can maintain its appearance with the help of various care products.
Density is the quality of hair that always attracts attention. Not a single person with such curls would want to exchange them for rare ones, if it was possible. Such hair has many advantages: beautiful appearance, the ability to do different haircuts with it, bald patches appear much later. However, there are also disadvantages:
- the need for careful care;
- material costs for the purchase of care cosmetics;
- constant maintenance of haircuts, trips to salons and barbershops;
- in some cases - the need for daily styling.
It is also worth noting that men's thick hair is mostly either coarse or curly. Both options imply the correct selection of haircuts.

How to care?
Thick hair requires essential and proper care. Only in this case they will delight their owner with a decent look. Consider a few rules developed by experts in this field.
- Choose the right shampoo. The scalp can be normal, oily, dry. It is important that the shampoo is correct for her type. Also, do not buy products that are too cheap: they contain a lot of additives and harmful substances.
- Apply balm or conditioner to your hair. This is a must after washing, as the strands should be easy to comb. In addition, such a product will make your hair softer, more manageable to styling.
- Wash your hair properly. Daily washing is mandatory for oily hair, as well as before styling. Wash your hair with warm water. If you have dandruff, it is better to turn to pharmacy products or herbal infusions. Regular anti-dandruff shampoos may not only fail, but dry out the skin and cause itching. Try to use a hairdryer less often after washing.
- Choose a good hairbrush. Experts advise purchasing combs with sparse teeth - they gently and well comb the strands. But the frequent and hard teeth often damage the hair.
- Don't go overboard with styling products. A lot of men often make the same mistake by applying large amounts of product to their hair. From this, the strands look greasy and untidy, they quickly lose their shape.
How to grow?
Growing hair is a time-consuming task, so it’s important to be patient and keep a few important points in mind.

It should be rubbed into the scalp with light massage movements, leave for 30 minutes, then rinse. You can also turn to products to accelerate hair growth from trusted brands.
