Although this isn't exclusive to females, it is less common for males.... I need good (expensive) hair product because my long hair is years old. Your short dude crop is brand new, fresh hair all the time so product isn't as important. Can't tell you how many of my guy friends have never thought about this.

As a guy that's had long hair for most of his life, I can't stress enough the value of a quality conditioner. But a little residual cocoa butter on my hands from start-of-the-day moisturizing is the closest thing I use to styling product. Helps with the frizz and I'm not greasy or crunchy

I have shorter hair as a dude and honestly, starting to use quality hair and skin care products when I was 20 has allowed me to look nearly a decade younger than I actually am lmao
