How to Grow Your Hair Out | Men's Long Hair Q&A
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 сер 2024
- Last year, I grew my hair out longer than it's ever been. It was a fun and rewarding experience, but it was also very frustrating. Ultimately, I ended up going back to a shorter hairstyle, just because I prefer the look.
But while I had longer hair, I got a TON of questions about growing your hair out as a guy. Frankly, I'm not the most qualified person to answer these questions. But, luckily, my good friend @TravWhiteStyle is a certified long hair expert. I collected your most burning long hair questions on Instagram, and I asked Trav to answer them for us in this video.
Big thank you to Trav for helping me out with this video. Definitely check out his channel @TravWhiteStyle if you want to learn about men's grooming, style and confidence, and of course, growing your hair out.
And, if you've been thinking about growing out your hair, I think you should try it at least once in your life. My hair never got as long as Trav's, but I'm still glad I tried a longer style.

Thanks for having me on Brock & everyone! It was a pleasure 🙏🏼
Thanks for the expert tips dude!
Dude, you're long hair made you look 10 years younger and it was epic!
Yep
Didn't even recognize him!
I'm saying more like 15 years
I argue that he looks older not younger
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've worn my hair down to my waist some times, and I just love when I'm at work with slightly longer hair and a customer goes "hey miss", I turn around and throw my deepest "hi how can I help you?" at them.
Watching their faces turn bright red and start mumbling "omg so sorry didn't know" as if them saying "miss" somehow should've offended me is just hilarious.
Haha
Hahah. Cant wait to grow my hair out and troll people like that. Thats hilarious
😂😂
🤣
Who the hell dislikes a 24 minute video that was released 10 minutes ago!
For Pete's sake
Same people saying “step 1: don’t”
Apparently the idea of men with long hair awakens some strong feelings...in other men 😂
A resentful bald man
@@jameskeane9721 “if I can’t have long hair, nobody can”
Bring the flow BACK
It’s so cool that you bring up one of the exact best business long hairstyles, Trav! I rock the middle part low-ball in back, too! I do it with a couple of ringlets left out in the front. Everyone tends to complement that style the most and they tell me that it looks exceptionally dapper, when compared to most other styles.
Brock, great video! I really appreciate your tips and Trav’s tips. Actionable, informative content as always. A+ from this fan.
💪
Awesome! Thank you!
What a Collab, gotta love Trav !
thanks Victor!
Great video! This answered all my questions
For the awkward stage; I just keep my sideburns in check (trim or shave them as necessary) and pull everything back into a cap. Helps me deal with the hair in my face that’s too short to tie back.
No man is complete without a set sideburns
Much appreciate the description 🙏🏼
Two of the best in one video!
2 of the females in one video
woaa awesome! haven't seen a long hair modest man video in a while!
Glad you liked it!
Brock, you look good with shorter hair, but much better with longer hair. Shorter hair is a cap on top of your head. Longer hair is a luxurious mane that frames and features your face. Trav, thank you. I shampoo daily, but always with conditioner. Wear it and enjoy it.
Loved the Anakin reference considering that’s my hair goal rn. Currently my hair is really short (had it basically buzzed in in September) but I wanna give it a shot!
Thank you for this video! I’m at the same length now as when I decided to buzz it back in July; man, do I regret it! :/
I cut my hair every two years. It grows about 14" - 16" in those two years. That awkward stage is hard and the hardest stage of taking care of it. I'm just now getting ready to shave it off now. This is the 10th time I'm going through the process so I'm ready for the awkward stage again.
Just curious, why do you do this rather than maintaining something for a while?
That’s how long it takes him to save for a decent barber :)
@@WreggGallace I have a coworker who grows his hair out just to donate it, then starts regrowing it.
I had hair down to my waist when I was a teen in the 1980’s.
Now I’m 52 and been growing my hair out for 3 years now from a buzz cut.
It’s is long.
I went thru the awkward phase while wearing a hat for over a year
I want to grow hair out too. I've always had short hair my whole life, i want to look like trunks from dbz
I buzzed my head and regretted it immediately. Only reason I cut it was because I was starting a new job and my long hair was frustrating to maintain because my hair is so thick :/ short hair looks good on me, but the attention I got with longer hair was just insane
Growing my sides back !!!started growing top since lockdown !!!....20 months in ..90s grunger back at it again
Gotta say you looked pretty good with long hair dude!
I’m rocking the buzz cut 4 months in and the beanie is a go to
Why am i watching this? I’ve been growing my hair out for 17 months now 😂
You look so much better with long hair!
If any one has dandruff please buy selsom blue it helped me within a week
my hair hit my shoulders at my 8 - 9 month journey starting from a very short hair cut. currently at my 11th where i can actually style it and it's really fun.
lucky bastard😬
Your hair was awesome!
I’m 20 months in and my hair is shoulder length. I went with a hairband for early awkward stages and now I go for a messy man bun. Tie it up as soon as you can
How long did it take for you to be able to tie it up messy style?
@@Jack14432 without it looking silly, around 18 months. Once it's there you're set though. I'm nearly 4 years in and have the same messy bun style
Just saying... But longer hair were perfect on you Brock! Change your mind!!! :)
Trav your hair is awesome 🤩
I'll be honest I only came here to say grow your hair back out it suited you so much more
You're a life saver!
I’ve grown my hair out 3 times and never thought the awkward stage was awkward. Maybe because of my head shape
Guys with coily hair starting from a buzzcut have the option of hair extensions as soon as the hair is long enough to support them. Either locs or braids work well.
Hair extensions for men lol
Flat irons can be used on men's hair too to deal with curls and strong waves.
Hair advisor/mental health advisor.👍🏼✨
I started around 2 years ago growing my hair out, not as long as I want it to be yet, but it’s getting there. I wanted to try some of the long Nordic styles.
hes stunning with his hair and responses
I buzzed my head exactly 8 months ago. Every hair on my head is now between 4 and 5 inches long. Trav's averages check out
Thanks for the tips. I tried growing my hair out once in the past but it looked like shit bc i didnt know what i was doing. Im trying it again though.. im getting close to the awkward stage now lol.. so wish me luck
How is it going now?
Great information,Thanks Trav. Too bad you didn't continue your hair journey, but least you tried it like you said. Questions did your respect for men with long hair jump from at 1 to a 10?
Dude you look fucking IMMACULATE with long hair, that’s my dream amount of wave. Shaving my head next week to start an even growth, since I haven’t actually grown my hair out more than like 3 inches I’m not 100% about my hair type, I believe it’s wavy, but could be on the straighter type
Grow it like Dave’s
@@Misterman214 if only I had super wavy ginger hair…
Starting from about 5mm, challenge accepted!
Thankyou trav
I like how all this show staring out with long hair already
Naaa u look real fly with long hair bro👌👌
You definitely have dark eye features, I put makeup on before to darken mine and have considered dying my eyelashes so they're not so freaking blonde and so that they're more noticeable, maybe I'm too self-absorbed, you are blessed with the eyes you have and the lashes to go with it, for a guy with brown eyes and blonde lashes and who can't even grow a beard, gosh I wish so bad I could grow a beard, you are blessed sir. Growing out my curly hair as we speak all I've got 😞
Amazing! 👍
the image thing helped a lot im almost there sides are a tiny bit to short still
I tried and I didn't remember about getting it styled, literally looked horrible so I cut it . . . wish I remembered, but I'm here for round two
When I started growing my hair & bangs out I wore headbands to keep the hair out of my eyes but now my hair stays out of my face unless I go out on a windy day then I wear a ponytail because I hate my hair blowing in my face.
My hair type is a curly/wavy hair & it’s natural.
When I wash my hair I put the shampoo on my hands & rub my hands together with the shampoo & only massage the scalp & then rub the shampoo down to the tips & then I rub conditioner in my hands like shampoo but I don’t massage conditioner in my scalp so I just rub the conditioner on the lengths of my hair & let the conditioner sit in my hair while I wash my body & then when it’s done I rinse my hair along with my body & when I’m done showing I wring out my hair or lightly towel dry without scrubbing my hair too hard with the towel because that is so bad for the hair & it can cause tangles which can cause hair to break & split & sometimes when I notice my hair dry out from weather I rub oil that is made only for hair my favorite hair oil is coconut oil.
Btw I wash my hair every other day & I condition my hair everyday & my hair is the healthiest it’s ever been & when I sleep at night I pull my hair up & place it over my pillow & headboard of my bed & I never wake up with messy tangled hair ever since I did my research on growing hair healthy.
I also take biotin vitamins everyday which also promotes healthy hair growth so my hair is healthy from the inside to the outside.
I guess one question I have is in regards to what do you do with the chicken fuzz or fine hairs at the nape of your neck? My hair gets wavy at the ends on the sides and back as it’s growing out and the poofy chicken hairs hold that out. Do the fine chicken hairs at the nape of the neck get trimmed out or do you let those grow as well?
I can’t be the only one who is reminded of Christian Bale with this guy. He looks like Christian Bale and sounds like Matthew McConaughey. (And yes I defiantly had to look up MMs last name bc there was no way I was going to get that right)
you look great in long hair as well
Nice!!!! thank you so much!!😊😊😊😊😊
Welcome!
@@BrockMcGoff I am family😂😂😂
Another strategy is to put a hat on, or slick it back and really keep your beard and neck tidy AND wear really nice clothes. You can't look homeless if you wear tailored, well fitting and ironed clothes. The crap hair looks intentional.
My hair is about to my mouth in the front and back of my neck in the back. It’s pretty awkward 😂 I look shaggy asf! My go to is after a shower blow dry/comb it, then pull it back and put a beanie or cap on. It helps get it out of my eyes, I just have really thick hair
Same here with the thick hair and a hat after a shower really helps manage it. Keeps it from poofing up too much and being frizzy. That’s the only way I can do it without wanting to chop it all off
You might want to also get it thinned out. I’ve done it a once or twice and it does feel nice for a bit
I had a mullet but now I am letting my hair grow so the bottom part is longer than the top now I just have to wait
I can never get past my awkward stage and always end up cutting it. Even during the pandemic I took the clippers to myself since the awkward stage was so awkward.
But these are great tips that make total sense.
I'm at 13 months and am only another month of 2 from beating the awkward stage. I haven't gotten a single cut. Nothing you can do but get through it and wait it out.
Gotta use hats man
@@joshwilliams6517 I never used to wear hats. With my hair growing out, hats have become my best friend. Never leave the house without one. Can’t wait until I get to the stage where I can actually tie it up. Almoooooost there….
you care too much about what others think. Just let it be man
@@dieselgeezer18 agreed
I did have long hair since 2015 to 2016 When I was in junior high It was wavy curly
I have mostly straight fine hair like trav and my hair is like 15 months from a buzz cut and I can put most of it in a pony tail except the front and some of the sides. If you want real long hair it’s going to take minimum 2 years more like 3 #facts
How to get through the awkward stage: remember this: other people are fretting about their life problems, not your hair.
Do a vid on if you should grow your hair out
Links in description to two videos I did about that 😉
My hair is probably 6 months away from being able to put the front and sides into a pony tail. I do look homeless and unprofessional. I hate putting product into my hair everyday so instead I just deal with it basically
Why you gotta troll me Brock? 😂
Sorry bro, I should have included a trigger warning at the beginning for my bald brethren 😂
When I was in the awkward stage my parents made me cut it
I cut my hair last month, and grow quick within a month,,I am going for shoulder Length hair, ...it take at least 19 months.
I kinda like the "awkward" stage. On me, it looks like Tom Cruise's or George Clooney's hair in the 80s.
Johnny deep is my hair goal
Can someone please tell me how to grow it out if I have a cowlick in the front. I’ve tried to grow my hair out before and got it to shoulder length but it would always kinda lay on my forehead. No hairline or part at all
thanks travis

Starting out the grow out phase. Awkward phase is incoming. We'll see if I stick to it.
I love my long hair, my hair is wavy and curly.
I really thought he did have eyeliner on and low key judged him for a second lol
What’s wrong with eye liner anyway
I’m crying in thin hair rn
I love your hair is long that ever have.
Bro I used to have long hair and when I started growing I get the goal without any cut and nothing I don't know how and I have curly hair
ive been growing my hair for 5 years now
That was a nice haircut.
Me trying to grow out my hair thinking I will have long straight hair ...
My curly/wavy (idk what exactly it is) hair: akwadphase for ever...
I use women’s shampoo and conditioner. I love it
Im sorry but i was dying when he said he looked like a women with a beard 😂
Bro WTH you looked like you was mid 20s with your long hair. Short hair makes you look like a dad about to have a mid life crises.
Is blow drying a must!?
*Am going right now true awkward stage!*
How I dealt with the awkward stage: extensions, protective styles. I have EXTREMELY textured hair. I currently have long box braids and my hair will be in braids till I am comfortable with my natural hair length
I like the longer hair better
Girls will notice you more with longer hair, guaranteed
I'm a certified short hair expert
Mane N tail shampoo and conditioner works for my fine hair
My issue is the back of my neck. When my hair grows out it starts to look like I'm growing a mullet and I hate mullets. Do I at least cut that part off or continue to let that grow out?
Yes. A barber will shape it. That’s normal…
I just pushed through the awkward stage, "cut my hair? Nah."
I’m 62,my hair is just now touching my shoulders. Nice but it looks like I’m growing wire instead of hair. I’ve used leave in conditioner, oil sprays and a few others. No effect. Any hope or should I just cut it off..? Oh , I take vitamin A everyday and mostly eat vegan. Any information would be helpful and appreciated.
Slick it back
I love he’s hair I’m jealous hahahaha
yeee wild horse bois turn up
Nice video
*me getting the sides buzzed once a month*
my stylist: please tell your hair it doesn't need to grow this much in a month
I’m barber. We just tell clients that. They like to hear it for some reasons.
@@johnphillip2566 it made me chuckle, but I don't much care how fast my hair grows. It's not a race. *shrug*
Try every 2 weeks…
I’m 18 and I’ve been growing my hair for 1 year
I’m just annoyed by my parents always telling me my hair is to long
my hair is almost down to shoulders i trimmed it a bit just now i love long hair i like the look but its a pain in the @ss to dry it completely after a shower it can get a little messy at times sometimes i will put it in a ponytail but dont like to much cause it shows my minorish acne scars also it can pick up an odor not sure why i shower everyday and try to rub in hair product but to me its worth it i dont like how i look in short hair
