For some, it might not look like much at all. For others, that story might be the complete opposite. But here\u2019s the thing: If you\u2019re not doing at least something in the aftercare realm in-between visits, you should.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before we jump into anything else, let\u2019s talk about what aftercare means. In the self-care sphere, the term is used to describe the recovery or healing process after a service. In other words, it\u2019s the routine you do to maintain your new look\u2014in this case\u2014haircut.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aftercare is extremely helpful and important. For starters, it\u2019s going to maintain the look and feel of your initial haircut. Additionally, an aftercare routine could help you identify any problem areas to bring back to your barber. Plus, it\u2019s a great way to fit self-care into your schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, what does an aftercare routine look like? For the most part, it\u2019s up to you. Create a routine that works for your hair and the cut, and that you can manage. In this post, we\u2019re going to talk about the basics you should keep in mind, as well as some steps that are universally applicable. Of course, if you\u2019re ready to pick a new barbershop to call your home, don\u2019t forget about booking using\u00a0Booksy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/cdl.booksy.com\/3rWof5XZTgb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s jump right in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_87_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\"><p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<\/div><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.booksy.com\/us\/barbers\/5-aftercare-tips-for-taking-care-of-your-cut-at-home\/#1-use-the-right-products\" >1.

Use the right products.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want a style that makes aftercare easy and effective, start with the products you\u2019re using. What\u2019s in your current lineup?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For instance, if you\u2019re wearing a cut that requires styling products, one of them should be a pre-styler. Think of pre-stylers as a warmup\u2014it gets your hair ready to hold products and protects it from being damaged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A pre-styler sounds pretty great, right? In fact, you might already own one and have no idea. As an example, mousse is a thickening pre-styler that stretches the strands of your hair, providing a volumizing effect. If you have small flyaways you want to keep in place, try mousse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another great choice for a pre-styler is sea salt spray. Use it on the tips of your hair to give your cut extra height Pomade also gives you the same result. It keeps hair in place and doesn\u2019t over-dry your roots.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pre-stylers will make the rest of the products you use in your aftercare routine shine. Be sure to always prep your hair before styling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115335\/shutterstock_658517485.jpg\" alt=\"Man judging what to put into his hair.\" class=\"wp-image-35214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115335\/shutterstock_658517485.jpg 800w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115335\/shutterstock_658517485-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115335\/shutterstock_658517485-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-get-a-cut-that-fits-your-hair-type\"><\/span>2. Get a cut that fits your hair type.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hair is objective. Essentially, there\u2019s no \u201ccorrect\u201d or \u201cincorrect\u201d way to get a haircut\u2014ultimately, it\u2019s up to you. With that, however, some cuts are going to be easier to manage during aftercare than others. This is because of hair type and texture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hair type and texture are important factors, and not just for aftercare. They\u2019re also important when determining what type of haircut you should be getting. Some cuts aren\u2019t going to look the same on everyone. If you\u2019re unsure, consult your barber! They\u2019re going to know what will work best for you and what won\u2019t.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, dreadlocks are a popular choice for African-American men. African-American hair tends to be more thick, curly, and prone to breakage. Locking hair in dreads protects thick hair variations from breakage and sun damage. This is why it\u2019s also known as a protective style. But, if someone doesn\u2019t have the thick hair needed to sustain dreadlocks, that hair will become matted and dirty.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the flip side, if you\u2019re thinking a shorter cut won\u2019t require any styling, most actually do. So it\u2019s good to think about how much time you can put into aftercare before your next cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-dont-overdo-it\"><\/span>3. Don\u2019t overdo it.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s known as a cardinal rule when it comes to hair, but that\u2019s because it really is so important. During styling and&nbsp;<em>especially<\/em>&nbsp;aftercare, a little goes a long way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might think you have to pile on product when you\u2019re mimicking your barber\u2019s skill. After all, when you\u2019re in the chair, you might see your barber using a multitude of products. While that\u2019s true, at home, you have to be mindful of buildup and how it can affect your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure you\u2019re reading directions so you know how much of a product to apply. Admittedly, when something seems straightforward, reading instructions usually isn\u2019t at the top of my mind. However, that\u2019s how you\u2019ll know how to use and apply the product, all while avoiding excess buildup.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This rule also goes for the products you use to wash your hair. Shampoo strips and dries hair of oil, dirt, and grime. So while it\u2019s cleaning, it\u2019s also drying. Shampoo can be a huge factor in a dry scalp, so only use what you need for aftercare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115405\/shutterstock_1823290499.jpg\" alt=\"Man using the right amount of products to style his hair.\" class=\"wp-image-35218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115405\/shutterstock_1823290499.jpg 800w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115405\/shutterstock_1823290499-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115405\/shutterstock_1823290499-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-wear-your-natural-hair-to-allow-for-%e2%80%9cbreathing-room%e2%80%9d\"><\/span>4. Wear your natural hair to allow for \u201cbreathing room.\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This one is not just for long hair! How many times do you throw extra gel or an elastic band in your hair when you don\u2019t want to do much else? (Or when your haircut isn\u2019t turning out the way it did earlier?) When you want to give your hair the shop look, it seems automatic to reach for as many products as possible to get it done, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes, the best solution is to do the minimum. Skip the styling products\u2014just let your hair breathe. Think about it: If hair is constantly being weighed down and manipulated by stylers, there\u2019s not much room for your natural hair to be on its own.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the same vein, continuously tying hair up in a ponytail or bun is going to put stress near the middle of your hair. You might notice your hair becoming thinner where you put bands. This means your hair is growing weaker by being pulled by the bands so much.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So give your hair some room to breathe and spend a couple of days without any extra products. You\u2019ll find how much healthier your hair feels when it\u2019s allowed to be in its natural state. Plus, it\u2019s way less for you to do when it\u2019s time to style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-always-condition-your-hair-always\"><\/span>5. Always condition your hair, always.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conditioner is one of those products everyone should use. It\u2019s a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gq.com\/story\/should-men-use-conditioner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">common misconception<\/a>\u00a0that men don\u2019t need to use it. But remember earlier in this post, where we talked about how drying shampoo is? This is where conditioner comes in.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may have heard that men don\u2019t need to condition their hair until it\u2019s at a certain length. However, if you\u2019re using shampoo, you should use conditioner as well. Like every great duo, one does what the other doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now if you want your hair to be extra soft, remember not to over apply conditioner. If you want more moisture, use more water when you\u2019re washing. You can also invest in a deep conditioner. It\u2019s a product formulated to moisturize your hair deeply and can be a weekly companion to your regular washing or aftercare routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115443\/shutterstock_1016996740.jpg\" alt=\"Man using conditioner to wash his hair.\" class=\"wp-image-35226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115443\/shutterstock_1016996740.jpg 800w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115443\/shutterstock_1016996740-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/14115443\/shutterstock_1016996740-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are just five steps to keep in mind, but remember, your routine can be curated just to fit you. Now you have a solid jumping off point to get you going. You might even be doing some of these steps already\u2014let us know.
