As a man with somewhat curly hair, i would never be able to run a fine toothed comb through my hair… find one that fits you, everyone is different.

But i agree with the washing tip, as a mason ionly use soap when i have done really dusty work (grinding concrete, cut out stones etc.) And else i just scrub my scalp with my fingers a couple times.

And for styling your hair? Hair ties are god given… pony tails, man buns you name it… but do you want to spoil yourself? Learn to braid your own hair, and find a style that suits you
