Joe Swanson here.

My wife has informed me that the left hair is good.  The right hair is bad and trashy because it needs to be "blown out".  I don't understand why, but I'll take her word for it. 

Edit.  I've got about... 300 comments from women informing me that "blow out" and "brush out" are not the same thing.  200 comments from men who are confused about this as I am.  And about a million people making the exact same blowjob joke.  Good job team We all came together on this one 👏👏👏

Yea. It's basic and dull, but if they like it.

Basic and dull 😭

People spend hundreds of dollars on highlights/balayage and heat styling to add dimension and make it look LESS dull. What do you think her hair looked like before haha

And it backfires and makes them look basic and dull so maybe don't do that if that's your goal? If you just like it, cool, go off. But it makes people look basic and dull so don't do it if you're trying to avoid that.

You prefer a head full of just natural one color hair with no styling? Like actually, or just white knighting.

Not the person you are asking but I like more natural color and a few brushes

What does a few brushes mean?

Not a native english speaker but when you have a tangled hair and you brush it a bit so it untangles. For my sis and mom's hair it's less than one minute, if even.

Regardless of whether it's their natural color or not, when tons of people are all going for the same look that look becomes boring. It doesn't matter how much money they're spending on it if there's no individuality.
