As a guy who is 14 months in growing his hair out, there isn't just 1 solution for 1 continuous awkward stage. You have to keep coming up ways to deal with your hair at different lengths till you can finally tie all of them up. It won't be long till all the nay sayers turn to compliments. Jessie is correct. It's the state of mind. Who will win? Keep up the grind, guys. 👊
Jesse, this was extremely entertaining. The references, the editing and the delivery of the jokes were so funny I was hooked. I can see you as an actor! Thank you for this
This is great. 15 months in and I'm definitely struggling with awkward phase 2.0. It's so good to hear that that's an actual thing. You probably just saved my hair's life. :D
Dude finally someone who understand my pain. I'm trying to grow my hair and EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. My family just annoys the fuck out of me with the "You should cut it" or "When are you gonna cut it?" at this point I wanna punch them. -.-
These words will (hopefully) echo in my mind when I reach that first awkward stage. I had an epiphany today on the subway while looking at a sea of men's hair that looks a hell of lot like mine, that I was ready for a change... then suddenly, I saw him. A hispanic dude in his early 40's with a stellar manbun sat down across from me and it hit me: I need to commit. So today marks the start of my long hair journey. We're starting at about 3" of length and my last cut being in early March of 2022. _Here we go, slowly._
Its so funny when u see ppl with straight hair talking about "awkward stage"...they dont know what ppl with curly coarse dry hair suffer from during that "awkward stage" Btw im at 8th month of growing my curly(3B/3C) very coarse very dry hair and its rly crazzzy rn
Absolutely true. I have also thick curly hair and i'm at 10th month and it's still like a broccoli. Also i'm afraid of the fact that my hair often falls. It sucks and i'm quite sad about it, but I really want to have long hair so i'm not cuting it 😂
I hate the "When are you ever going to cut your hair?" I thought that when my hair was past my shoulders, that the questions would stop, but the "When are you going to cut your hair?" became "Are you ever going to cut your hair?" if that makes any sense. I cut my hair on August 24th 2023 to a buzzcut. I am growing my hair out again. My hair was way past my shoulders before I cut it
Dang, I thought you were going to teach us how to style our hair but here you are showing us how to style our lives. After all what is a hairstyle if not a lifestyle 🤯
The only way to grow out of an "awkward stage"... Is through the process of 'growth' both hair and mind... And hopefully you land with a hairstyle you're comfortable with doing everyday because you might be able to style your hair in the most perfect way for yourself but if you're not able to do it everyday then it becomes a huge problem... So my advice just find a simple hairstyle one you can do every friggin day
I’m at the point where everyone is asking when I’m cutting my hair, and My only response is I have absolutely no plan to ever cut it again. I’m also a ginger, so it sticks out 😂 I have no clue what to do with my hair, and I’m in a small Oklahoma town so everyone’s response is to simply thin it. I like the bulk though, so should I thin it or leave it?
im in the awkward stage rn, been growing my hair for like 10 months. i like my hair even in the awkward stage but now im not sure how im gonna style my hair once they get longer, i was planning on styling it as a manbun but im not really sure anymore if its gonna suit me or if im gonna like it on myself so im gonna get a haircut really soon. the journey was great and i loved keeping long hair❤️
Hey Jesse! I’m a big fan of yours and i watch your content on youtube and follow you on instagram as well. I’m not sure if you’ve ever uploaded content where you discuss about what kind of products you currently use for your hair but i’m sure it would make a great video! Have a good day!!
I have thick dense hair and plan on growing it out. What would be the best type of products to use and do you have any recommendations such as: clay, gel, pomade, ect?
Exact same hairstyle I have currently, it really is great! And yes the same thought crossed my mind if I should continue or keep it but hey I'm continuing it!
6:15 when you gonna cut your hair? :v I hate that question And yeah, is our decision to grow or cut the hair I love my long hair because I look like a handsome from telenovelas (soap operas) hehehehe Longhair men are cool🤘🏻😎🔥 I like your videos man, and I hope to watch more!!!! 🙏🏻 Greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷✌🏻😎
JESSE! (And everyone else) I need your advice. Been growing out my hair for around 8 months form a buzzcut. Im at a length of 5"-6" inches right now. I was hoping that my hair would become curly with length but its stuck at thick and just slightly wavy for a while now. It looks very trashy and it doesn't suit my face. I was thinking of getting a perm, looser, bigger curls not that tight tiktok e boy type perm. Will this fuck up my hair growing process? (I still want to grow it out at least another 5") Does it damage the hair too much and will it grow out with time?
Absolutely brill video and advice. Thank you. Im at the " mushroom " stage at the mo. Had a topknot and short sides so cut it all off and started again. My hair is so thick im sure if i fell id bounce straight back up. Its in my ears now too and it feels like ticklish....oh the joys. Anyway...excellent vid. Im a subscriber now whoohoo
yeah don't worry, I'm like 7/10 through the awkward stage and so close to the freedom bun. the mushroom stage was really short and you just need to scrunch your hair and tuck in behind your ears. best of luck bro.
@gamfluent2857 My hair was a no 2 on the sides and a top knot ponytail on top. I cut the top so that it was a few inches long and just let everything grow. I was going to layer the top but just left it. Went to the hairdressers once every 5 months for a shape up and split ends check. Now its all one length and below my ears...ie short bob. Will just let it grow out now till it reaches my shoulders
I also had my hair thinned out all over to reduce some bulk. Just very light thinning out. As my hair gets longer is pulling the hair down naturally. Thinning out got rid of the mushroom look a bit
What he calls mecha aquward stage and hair he didn’t like, is hair I’d kill for. if my hair had some health to it and proper technique it would turn out similar to his, but no matter what I do I just cannot seem to master getting healthy hair, it’s always been dry and pretty frizzy my whole life, and then when I use conditioner it just becomes superphysiological oily a day later or 2 days later. no inbetween. no matter what conditioner I use or products , no heat no nothin and I just never seem to have any luck with it. I’ve tried hundreds of products cuz I’ll grow it out a bit have no luck cut it shorter again like a Chris evans textured haircut and it’ll grow into Henry cavill hair curls and waves start to show and after some time turn into Timothee chalamet , then cut it again cuz no luck so on so forth for like 7 years now.
so its a state of mind right? my goodness i had it wrong since forever...currently growing my hair out, and hair length is about 15-16cm overall, it grows at 1cm per month (i did the graph lol) so i think my unmanageable hair phase is coming to an end right? also why its 'unmanageable' i think major bec my ends of the hairs are wavy and the body of the most hair strands are quite straight cant really figure much out on whether i wanna straighten it out or keratine treat it...but then the heat damage scare me...bec i dont wanna compromise on quality and maybe volume too xD bec while straightening it will lose its volume right...so really confused on where im going with my aimless long hairstyle
Yo Jesse how can I get you to check out my hair and help me finally figure it out! 😅😅 my hairs been a source of frustration for me most of my life and it’s actually been falling out and thinning a lot over the last couple years which has me freaked out. Help bro! 🙏🏼😂
True, not only God himself had long hair but most classical heroes had long hair too, ancient Greece, the Vikings, or the so called "hero archetype" hairstyle, long curtains
What do I do if I've been in the awkward stage for 23 years
See a therapist
learn some hairstyling skill then
Go bald
Why are u here ?? Being a girl 🤣🤣😅
This video is for boys only

One more thing, "awkward" stage is very subjective, middle link (usually called awkward) suits my face so much better than very long hair
Jesse, this was extremely entertaining. The references, the editing and the delivery of the jokes were so funny I was hooked. I can see you as an actor! Thank you for this

Holy shit same but for me it's people at school.
Hahah i feel you... why can't people just mind their own business
Literally same

You started growing your hair at about the same time as me. Are you still going strong?
My last haircut is February so almost the same as yours, see you next year.
So?
Just cut my hair way to short from the awkward stage, R.I.P.
There's always a friend who asks "When you gonna cut your hair it's so loong~" haha!! Relatable!
This is the best story-telling video I've seen this month.
My life is an awkward stage
Its so funny when u see ppl with straight hair talking about "awkward stage"...they dont know what ppl with curly coarse dry hair suffer from during that "awkward stage"
Btw im at 8th month of growing my curly(3B/3C) very coarse very dry hair and its rly crazzzy rn
Have u gotten it cut if so what did u ask for
Absolutely true. I have also thick curly hair and i'm at 10th month and it's still like a broccoli. Also i'm afraid of the fact that my hair often falls. It sucks and i'm quite sad about it, but I really want to have long hair so i'm not cuting it 😂
@@toxicgreen8833 no almost one year now and its rly good
@@adamtuber1486 keep it bro im 1 year now and it rly worth the try
You got me bro
A masterpiece of cinematic story telling
My Marta for hair is. It’s hair, it’s supposed to be enjoyable. Don’t stress too much.

2:15 literally half the class when i enter the room
bro you deserve like 5 million subscribers because the quality is even higher than that😍😍😍😍
When I was in the awkward stage, I lost, go it cut!!🤦♂️😂😂
Just because you’re lost the battle doesn’t mean you couldn’t have won the war my friend.
kind of a weird thing but you have a very pleasant voice and awesome way of narrating stories, perfect for audio dramas
what is this guy doeing with 53k subs, he deserve at least 800k by now

The Madara comment 😂 I’m going for a pain/Madara mix. I’m glad Trav white exposed your channel more. You deserve it man thank you.
Keep it thick you'll look like Dave Mustaine lol
My son is in the awkward stage and I don’t know how to help him 😅😩 he’s sick of it in his eyes but doesn’t want it cut.
out of context but began watching anime cuz of this channel.
Wth!! really?
yeah, he mentioned Eren rocking long hair in Attack on Titan S4, had this anime on my watch list for a long time now.
im in the awkward stage rn, been growing my hair for like 10 months. i like my hair even in the awkward stage but now im not sure how im gonna style my hair once they get longer, i was planning on styling it as a manbun but im not really sure anymore if its gonna suit me or if im gonna like it on myself so im gonna get a haircut really soon. the journey was great and i loved keeping long hair❤️
0:48 this stage is my goal, i think it will fit on me
Great video. Thank you for sharing this story.
This is the stage where I am glad for working from home. Then just wear a hat when I go to the gym.

Greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷✌🏻😎
What do you think about relaxing hair if I have hair like yours ? Is it really bad for my hair , will I experience hair loss?
You earned my respect, when you pronounced "Madara Uchiha"
i want the hairstyle that grants freedom and rumbling.

Have you tried Jesse's scrunch drying technique? Perm should be a last resort imo
@@humphreybrogart8392 i did but it just made them a little wavier
