5 Awkward Stage Hairstyles To Try Whilst Growing Your Hair Out

Рет қаралды 87,085

Күн бұрын

Here’s some interesting awkward stage hairstyles to try during the hair growth process.
If you’re struggling with motivation during this whole process & want some awesome support to help get you through it, make sure you come and join the Man Buns & Manes Facebook group here: manbunsandmanes.com/
As for the hairstyles covered in this video:
- The Matt Healy Style -
- The Boof Look -
- The Medium Slick Back -
- The Longer Slick Back -
- The Half Way Man Bun -
The honest truth with all this though is not every stage of growing your hair out is able to be fixed easy peasy. Sometimes you just gotta either chuck a hat or a beanie over the top of it all or tie up whatever you can and just look like Krusty the Klown for the greater good.
The most important thing to remember during this whole process though is it’s not permanent and not only that, there is SOOOO many more guys growing their hair out now and you’re definitely not alone which is why joining a group like Man Buns & Manes is so helpful: manbunsandmanes.com/
I hope you guys enjoy this video today and most of all get some value from it. Remember to stay cool, hit the thumbs up button and come back to visit me next week.
Yours in good hair,
Thomas.

I think one of the great things about growing out your hair is that as it grows you can try many styles with different lengths, I know that sometimes you don’t know what to do with it and it annoys you but honestly for me it’s a fun journey.

Also if your hair is really long on the top, and you are growing out just the sides. You can do a parted low man bun with just the hair on the top. My hair on the top is probably around 12 inches, and on the sides it's 3,5 inches, and it works perfectly.

I'm at that stage where my hair is long enough to do the top-half bun and the bottom half nothing haha. I like that look a lot too and I even use the pins to keep the hair on the side up and not hanging. I still just feel super awkward about putting my hair up in public tho because I still feel like it's just weird for men to do, which is funny that I think that because I want to grow my hair out long long in the first place lol. Hopefully I soon realize that it's not that strange for men to tie their hair up outside because, when I get my hair long enough to be able to tie all of it in a pony tail atleast, I'm def going to need to be able to contain it outside

@tubax926 3 жыл бұрын

In the awkward stage I just focus on making my hair as healthy as possible and rocking my waves (2c). I always just have 3 hairstyles: Off-center part, side part and man bun with bobby pins. I recommend not using bobby pins daily as they can cause breakage for the hair at the front and that will make the stage longer. Using heat frequently will frizz up your natural texture when you do rock it so really just don't touch heat at all except if you have a wedding or something.

Bc its gonna grow into just a longer and longer mullet and will stay styled looking!
