why are there so few fit guys with long hair?
>>
It's a pain in the ass to maintain, doubly so if you're an active person. When I first grew out my hair it looked great and I got tons of compliments, but with time it degraded since I wasn't willing to buy half a drugstore's worth of products

Fit ≠ "gorgeous"
Fabio was what we called a "supermodel."

You are
out

I enjoy Jesus length hair so when I get fit I'll be one, just have to stop being fat first
>>
Some peoples hair just doesn't grow that long
>>
>>76986003
Oh, I won't claim that Fabio didn't work out or wasn't fit/very healthy! Fabio's entire life was about making healthy decisions and staying in great health, and people LOVED HIM for it.

I'm simply claiming that if anyone thinks, if they're fit, "all I need to do is grow out my hair and I'll be as charming, charismatic, and good-looking as Fabio!"

...then they are idiots.
>>
>>76985719
Because most gymcels are slaves and slaves dont have long hair also this guy has C cups he should troon out already

I've got about chest length hair but I tie it up at the gym desu. I personally think muscle and long hair is peak but I've got a long ways to go to match up against the fab.
>>
>>76986021

"This guy" is both extremely kind, intelligent, humble, and has been preaching to people to make better decisions for his entire life. Comparing him to being just short of "transvestite" is blatantly ignorant.

Long hair is something good looking men can pull off but they'd still look better with short. Same with great looking women with short hair.

Brad Pitt can have long hair and look great but that's just because he can make anything work. For 99.9% of men and 100% of browns just have short hair, you can't make long work.

How can I get long hair? The PT at my gym said he was putting birth control pills on his shampoo and it worked lol

The ability to maintain hair post 30 is very rare among men with high testosterone levels, assuming they don't troon out and use products or surgeries.

Fabio was also a fitness model and the epitome of sex in his day. Yet, even back then, it was mostly older women that had a strong attraction to fabio.

>muh high test
Big cope, this is only partially true; is the genetic sensitivity to DHT what causes it, not test per say. If you have the mark of the Norwood Reaper there is no escape, high test or not; the contrary also applies.

Being tall, not being fat and having a head full of hair are the only things that matter aesthetics-wise
>>
>>76986884
I want this. Not so I can attract and date/fuck an old woman, I'm just weirdly into the idea of getting compliments from old people. Hoping and praying 2026 is the year it finally happens

Hair is for boys and women.
>>
>>76985764
If you get your split ends trimmed every once in a while and just use conditioner and shampoo a few times a week instead of every day, this is a non issue.

t. had long hair for fifteen years.
>>
>>76987214
Also never blow dry long hair and brush once a day no more unless absolutely necessary.
>>
>>76985719
>fit guys
Most of them have shit hairline genes and then roid which accelerates the hair loss.

>>76985719
When you're living an active lifestyle long hair is a pain in the ass, that's why. I lift heavy, run and do BJJ. Gets in the way of training, and it gets annoying when you train to the point you're literally soaked in sweat. Plus you have to shower more when you're training like that if you don't wanna stink, drying is a pain

most of the guys with long hair are geeks who do nothing physical, or neckbeards who never go outside. If these guys actually started taking fitness seriously I guarantee they'd soon get sick of their long hair and come to the conclusion it's not worth all the hassle

long hair can look great but just gets in the way and turns into an inconvenience when you're living an active lifestyle
>>
>>76986491
this. long hair only looks good on Brad Pitt, because he's Brad Pitt. that exact same hairstyle would look terrible if you put it onto X incel mass shooter

I think generally most dudes can pull it off as long as they're not turbo manlets, not fat, not auschwitz mode, well groomed and well dressed as to not look homeless, and not a chinlet. but still, those same dudes would look better with it short in most cases
>>
>>76987266
I wanted to wear my hair down in a half bun but it just gets in the way in the gym that I just put it in a messy bun because when I bench my hair pulls or it gets sweaty.

The big thing you need to do if you have long hair
>find out what you hair ACTUALLY IS
Find out if it's thin (meaning the hair strand is actually thin not that you're balding) or thick, if you have wavy hair, curly hair or coily hair (they're all different)
>use AI to generate you 3 things: Shampoo/Conditioner , leave in conditioner, serum
If you want to add more go ahead, but those are the three main things you need
>if you like your hair but don't know what hairstyle you want at the hair salon just tell them to cut your dead ends off and just clean it up
This way they don't dramatically change your hairstyle and it's more of a refresh
>shampoo/condition maybe every 3ish days rest just wash your body
This is where the 'girls have 5 different showers,' comes from
That's it basicaly. Don't ask girls about hair tips as they have no idea what the fuck they're doing.
>>
>>76987345
>Don't ask girls about hair tips as they have no idea what the fuck they're doing

Depends, my sister and I have the same hair type and some of her tips are genuinely useful. But yeah, I wouldn't trust anyone outside of the family for hair advice, most people will either intentionally or unintentionally sabotage your hair with their shit advice, even your wife/gf.
>>
>>76986914
Eunuchs dont go bald. There was a case study with a set of twins, one was a eunuch and one a normal guy, and the eunuch had a full head of hair compared to his brother. When they started giving the eunuch TRT, he got as bald as his brother within a few months. Low test also equals low DHT
>>
>>76985764
It's way lower maintenance than short hair or even bald, just have to use a conditioner and leave in, and trim the ends every other month. Never a bad hair day, never greasy, no product, shaving or expensive visits to the barber needed, comb it every other day and that's it.
>>
Having long hair is easy. Just comb it in the morning and then put in a ponytail.
>muh active lifestyle gets my hair dirty :(
God gave you hair and you shave it off like a slave.

i'd recommend start growing it now as it'll probably take 1-2 years until you have jesus length, why not start now?
>>
>>76987558
bro what.
>>
>>76985764
This.

It's not even about products, that's some faggy shit you can do without. The issue is that whenever you exercise, it gets sweaty and greasy as fuck, it gets in the way of movement, so you have to tie it and then you have to keep checking on it every 2 minutes, and you can't shower before bed because the hair needs to dry out.
>>
>>76987472
Being bald is a natural part of life for real men. I'd bet money you can't grow a full beard, little boy.
>>
I hate managing hair. It gets greasy and gross and never stays where I want it to. Every time I try to grow it back out I get immensely sick of it two or three months in and buzz it off again.
I make the buzzed look work but only because I have a full beard down to my stomach. I don't think the look works with cropped beards.

Lol, that goes for more things in life than you probably think. Humans are shitty like that, everyone wishes you to do well, but just not as well as they're doing
even fitness advice, most people will tell you garbage advice to try and gatekeep fitness and ensure they alone remain ahead. don't trust 95% of the shit you read online (the other 5% are real niggas who will give legit advice) and don't listen to anyone aside from close friends/real bros and family

notice all the blackpill shit you read online, "yeah bro I hit 1/2/3/4 in my first 3 months just give up if you didn't do that" coming from some dyel chubby nigger who has never benched 2pl8 in his life, all the fake natties giving shit advice, all the larpers who claim elite numbers but of course they can't post proof because theyre just full of shit. be careful in general when taking advice on anything brah

A big part of it is balding, another big part of it is zoomers all falling for the "long hair is for gays and women and gay women" meme. Ironically when they're all rocking the zoomer brocolli perm.

>>76986491
>they'd still look better with short.
Short hair on guys is absolute normieshit, it's the lowest form of conformity, it's saying "I'm afraid to stand out", it's falling for the hair circumcision meme.

>>76987317
>that exact same hairstyle would look terrible if you put it onto X incel mass shooter
They'd unironically look better than all having the same generic chudcel haircut.

I remember when a lot of nerds would look like metalheads even when they weren't metalheads. There would be all sorts of ponytail & neckbeard nerds back in the day, way more soul than generic non-haircut short haired zoomer chuds.

>it's a fucking pain to maintain.
Short hair is 100 times more work to maintain.

You constantly have to fuck around with a comb and hair gel or some other product and then be all "oh no, my hairstyle is ruined because it's windy outside and/or I wore a hat for 20 minutes"

You constantly have to go to the hair dresser every few weeks whenever the hair on the side of your head starts to almost touch your ears.

With long hair, you can either tie it up or let it loose. Having the wind flow through it feels great and you don't have to worry about the rain or sweat ruining your precisely-positioned 90s spike hair style.

bruh i cut my own hair a 2 on the sides 7 on top, after showering i towel dry then blow dry it so it sticks up, thats it i also fully shave as it feels good and makes my confidence go up, but keep looking like a swarthy caveman to own the roman slaves or whatever cope you come up with
>>
>>76990300
>bruh i cut my own hair
You should only do that if you're completely flat broke, or your haircut is just shaving your head.
>>
>>76990317
why? it takes like 5 minutes to cut it and looks better than ling ling cutting that shit as i have been doing it for like 15 years i know my head shape better than anyone. I see niggas getting haircuts and it looks like shit usually
>>
>>76990300
If you have a full head of healthy long hair, all you have to do is shampoo and conditioner 3-4 times a week, brush it once in the morning, and get it trimmed every couple months to remove split ends. It's objectively less maintenance than short hair.
>>
>>76990397
it takes forever for long hair to dry is my only gripe with it. I think its pretty low maintenance plus it is good for nichemaxxing so really its just a preference thing i prefer the simplicity and cleanliness if you will

I'm not fit (working on it) but I have long hair, even as a lifelong fatfuck I've only ever gotten compliments on my hair after growing it out. Who notices someone with a totally bog standard haircut?
>>
>>76986844
Because they're ugly.

I think you need to have a very masculine bone structure to pull off long hair as a man, not to mention a good hairline (long hair + recessed hairline is sad). The angularity of a short haircut can help add some sharpness to a weak, feminine face.

Baldness is a signifier of poorer genes. It's a self sacrificial mechanism to favor younger males.

This is my experience as well. Ive had long hair for 7 years though all sorts of hard physical jobs and different exercise programs
It fucking sucks, but being 30 with a full head of blonde wavy hair is too good a blessing for me to pass up still.

>>76987784
>you can't shower before bed because the hair needs to dry out.
?
Yes you can. You tie it up into a bun or a knot, then go wash your body off without getting your hair wet.
>>
>>76985719
Most are too insecure to get past the medium length phase. I’m jacked with long hair and women love it and it’s extremely easy for me to maintain. Maybe that’s just genetics. I don’t understand what people mean when it’s a pain.

people without long hair don't understand the how different things are with long hair that you ACTUALLY take care of and it's not just a mess.

Yeah this is something people don't talk about much but when you have long hair it ends up on fucking everything and it can be aggravating.
>>
>>76991471
it's due to the sweat. You're suppose to let it free when you're done to air out you psycho. I always have to have my hair in a bun in the gym because I'm always laying down doing something like benching or stretching.

Also there is a thing called dry shampoo.
>>
>>76985719
There are few guys with long hair in general, most dudes don't know shit about hair care and a good chunk get visited by the norwood reaper.
Also not every guy can pull off long hair

I second that. A really active lifestyle for a guy means long hair is just something that bothers you all the time and you don't enjoy it at all. I had long hair for years and when I cut it off it was like being born again.

long hair is such a bandaid for every single facial flaw you can imagine, esp if you have a long midface, megamind forehead, or just a cuck face, it can legit make those features positive muh elegant or high class.

once you enter nw2 land that bandaid is ripped and you realize the life you had is over. its basically the only way you can be seen on a human level comparable to masc chads. most normies dont try it because like other anon said its mentally comparable to circumsion

This coupled with its a pain in the ass and more time and money consuming to take care of. You’re actually doing and spending more to look worse in most cases.
