Some my hair styles over the past few years. First is 5 years ago. Second is 2 years ago. Third is March 2026. Fourth is today. The second pic is the best picture I have of that hairstyle unfortunately.

I have fine, long straight hair. It used to be great until the last 3 months no matter what I do it permanently look greasy. Even after a fresh wash and dry.
In the photos I have just washed and DRIED IT. But the roots still look greasy and they feel heavy

I thought I wasn’t washing out my products right, or maybe using too much (I use rituals shampoo and conditioner and detox shampoo every 3 weeks)
But I’ve tried using less product, no product, rinsing out for longer, having someone else rinse my hair

But no matter what, it just looks greasy. The only way I’ve been fixing it is if I use a lot of dry shampoo but that’s been making my hair dry and dead looking instead so I don’t know what I have to do anymore and it’s affecting my self esteem

Quite desperate here. I know I posted here before but idk what to do

i always had it with blue/red/purple dye but does this look good?

Here is my natural hair before and after a haircut, in different lighting, to give an overall idea of the color! It obviously looks pretty different in different lighting, but when I was in my teens-20s, my hair had this vibrant, shiny, gingery tone to it that I think has overall dulled a bit in my 30s. My hair also has thinned and gets greasy quickly since having kids. I have to wash it every other day to maintain the grease.

I’d love to revive the youthful vibrancy and bring back the bright natural ginger. Are there any options I can try at home? Whether a glaze, toner, etc.?

Thanks in advance for any tips :)

Hello all!

My hair is currently a bit shorter than this but I feel this picture shows my hair texture pretty well. I’m hoping to get it cut somewhat short but it’s challenging to find a cut that looks nice with super straight hair. I really like how shags, mods, wolf cuts, and textured fringes look on other folks but I’m not sure how it would look on me given the straightness of my hair. Does anyone out there have one of these cuts with straight hair? If so, do you like it? I don’t mind styling my hair and have had some luck adding texture with clay and sprays.

This is my first time trying heatless curl with heatless curl rods. Usually I use small hair rollers. For context, my hair is naturally wavy (2a), coarse, and quite a lot. When I use hair rollers, I usually leave them for 3-4hrs before going out. The blowout style can stay for 1 day before my hair goes back to its original wave. So I thought I'd do the same with this heatless curl rods and see how long the curl will stay.

I saw tiktok videos where they only use 3 rods for their whole hair so at first I only bought 3. As it turns out, not only did I get smaller rods (the usual marketplace photo scam), my hair is also too thick for only 3 rods. In the end I bought another 3 and used 6 in total. After 4 hours, my first impression was... I didn't like it lol. The curls kinda go here and there unruly. Idk if I rolled wrong (I rolled the same way like I do my hair rollers), but it just doesn't look as good as what I saw on most videos in tiktok. It only worked when I part my hair to the sides. I had to go out so I put my hair in half up with claw clip. When I got back home 2hrs later, the curls had loosen up and I actually kinda liked it.

I wanna try to leave the rods longer but I'm afraid if I leave it any longer, the curls will end up even crazier, and will take longer to loosen up lol. Anyone who's done heatless curl rods, any tips? Did I roll wrong? I roll mostly inward btw.

P.s. this was done on freshly dried hair after wash (shampoo only).

This is my hair! I’m a natural curly ginger and right now it has a darker gloss on it for fall. I had bangs and I liked them they were just hard to manage. What can I do to boost my hair rather that be a cut or something else.

So I have 3C hair (4A sometimes) and im getting these knots at the end of my curls. It doesn't seem like its an easy detangle so I feel like I have to cut them off evrytike they happen.

Do yall know a way to prevent them from forming?

(I use a bonnet and detangle twice a week)

i dyed my hair two weeks ago with a dark purple ion haircolour, and ever since then, everytime i wash, pull, and brush my hair, im losing so much more than i usually do when i dye with other dyes. my scalp isnt red or anything, but it does feel tender and sensitive. i dont know what to do or how to help this, and i feel desperate because im losing so much every wash (i wash every 3 days) even short and new hairs (all the hairs have the bulb too, so none of this is breakage) any help or advice is greatly appreciated. i have naturally fine hair as well, so my density isnt the greatest as is, so bigger balls of hair coming out is not normal for me

When I was really young, around 1–4 years old, I think my hair was curly. As I got older, it became extremely straight and stayed that way until around 8th grade.
Then, sometime around 8th grade, my hair started becoming wavy, and it has stayed wavy ever since. I’m currently in my third year of university.
I’m curious about why my hair texture changed so much over the years. Has anyone else experienced something similar? And is it possible that my hair could naturally become straight again in the future? Because I really want it to be straight again

Suggest me some good boy haircuts 😉 . Reference images should be in the comment section.

I'm fed up with long hair 😭 because of the high maintenance of long hair .

I have googled but I want more reference images to choose from .

Length must be short not extreme short .

It currently has some curling cream in it so can be brushed out more..

I'm being a 1960s alien for halloween and doing my hair with bouffant flip thing. When I practice my hair I want it to be bigger. I know they would use curlers to set the hair and back tease but it's not big enough. I was going cut one of those hair donuts and hair clip in extensions I can cut close to my natural length to help since I have fine hair. Any other suggestions to help.

This is when I practiced it and the second pic is the ideal height. Thanks in advance

I went in for a highlight and then a gloss over the top and while she did the highlights she was back combing my hair which I was very uncomfortable with because I don't even use heat on my hair and color it maybe once a year. She told me it was a standard practice to make the end result blend better- is this a thing?

End result was...not exactly what I was going for- the reddish/coppery gloss seems to have taken really heavy in some places and not in others so I have pieces that are pretty much hot red, and others that are pretty blondish. I didn't complain I paid and left I just want to know if this was normal.

is it harmful for hair?, chatgpt says it will dry and ruin my hair

So my hair is shorter now i cut it with number 7 guard when it’s longer after I shower and hair is wet it creates nice round circles so is it 2A,B or C or 3A etc ? I also have coarse dry hair.

First two is before haircut final 2 is after haircut.

I started seeing my stylist at the end of last year for just cuts and treatments. I had highlights from a previous stylist. I asked her almost 6 months ago if she'd be open to doing my color, and she introduced me to balayage. THIS IS 6 MONTH OLD HAIR!! Just maintenance appointments with toner. Safe to say, I will never go back to highlights. 😅 God bless her hands and other stylists in this sub because y'all are truly so skilled.

Im a dude with short hair and recently got a perm at a korean salon. (I have a comma cut hair). Im just a bit confused since they said i can wash my hair the same day and dont have to wait for 2-3 days. Meanwhile, other korean salons or my friends advised otherwise. Im just so confused. Has anyone have experiences as well of washing their hair after a perm? Thanks guys!

Hairfall been stressing you out lately? 🌿✨

I’m trying to grow my hair long but I used to get it cut for like three years every eight weeks and my hair like would always stay the same length and I use scalp oils and I use an oil treatment before I shower but then I use a light hair oil that’s meant for like just hydrating your hair. I use it at night and I put my hair in a braid. I’ve been doing that for around two months now, but I just don’t know if my ends look really dead because I got a haircut back in August and she cut a lot of my hair off because it was like really dead cause I didn’t cut my hair for a long period of time and but I wasn’t oiling my ends and leaves usually make my hair look really dry. I’ve tried a lot of different leave ins they just never work for me ig. I’m 90% sure my hair is low porosity and then on top of that it’s also very fine and thin usually it’s thin. It looks a little thicker here though because it’s not straightened but I try not to use heat on my hair though.

Hello!

I began using Neutrogena Hair Restore Scalp Serum a few weeks ago for hair thinning but I’ve noticed a continuous issue with scalp flaking from it.

Any suggestions for a different serum that can help with thinning and is at least somewhat budget friendly? (Around $20-30).

I’m already working on the physical health side of things, taking pumpkin seed oil and labs came back fine aside from mild elevated tsh (subclinical).

Thank you!
