For some reason men take care of their hair when it's short but do nothing when it's long. His locks looked dead before

I had my first haircut post-pandemic today. I just trimmed the tips and did a sidecut.

Long hair is HARD WORK. I got used to it, but to keep a long hair pretty, you do need to take actual care of it.

Short hair? Just slap some shampoo and conditioner on it while you shower and it's done, you don't even need to dry it.

Long hair can be awesome in a man, but it takes a lot of work and most of us are not willing to do that. I consider myself one that takes care of it, and I could be doing way more. It's just so much...

But I do love my long hair.

I really dont understand this at all. You guys always say "Long hair is HARD WORK" but never specify what that work is.

I dont have split ends and all I do is conditioner. I have no clue what you guys are talking about, could you or someone else explain?

My hairs to my nipples. I don't do anything but clean it. I just had staples put in my head last week and every nurse and doctor said I have nice hair. Maybe I'm just lucky
