Hair Clipper Cutting Tips

Whether you choose a VS For Men hair clipper that requires comb guide attachments or you choose the unique all-in-one i-clipTM hair clippers , this information will allow you to achieve salon perfect results at home.

For best cutting performance:

Use on clean dry hair that has been combed until tangle-free.

Set the cutting length as required, or attach the desired comb guide attachment.

It is always best to start cutting with a longer grade first and work in sections, so you know which sections are yet to be cut.

Hold the clipper against the hair. The teeth of the comb guide should be pointing upwards and flat against the head.

Move the clipper upwards and outwards through the hair, a little at a time, against the direction of hair growth.

The clipper will work most efficiently when cutting through the hair at its own speed. Never force through the hair.

Never switch the clipper off whilst in the hair.

For longer hair on top of your head, you may wish to use a barber comb to lift the hair and then clip over the comb, or hold the hair between your fingers and cut to the desired length.

• For finishing touches around the nape and sideburns, use the clipper without a comb guide. Turn your clipper over and move it from top to bottom.

Many black men want to grow their hair longer but have trouble doing so. There are many reasons why it can be challenging for black men to grow hair. Although black hair grows just as fast as other types of hair — roughly a half inch each month — it is often very curly, fragile, brittle, and dry. This makes black hair susceptible to breaking, and the more it breaks, the shorter it seems.

While genes and diet play an important role in how long hair grows, how you care for your hair may play an even larger role in growing black hair. Here are the latest hair growth tips for black men.

Trim off damaged and split ends regularly, as they will interfere with the hair growth process.
Keep hair clean. Clean hair and a clean scalp help hair grow faster. When hair is dirty, the dirt clogs the hair follicles, which makes it more difficult for hair to grow. But try not to shampoo every day, as black men’s hair is easily damaged, and daily shampoos can actually cause breakage. Cleanse with conditioner instead.
Use the right shampoo for your black hair type. Not all black men’s hair is alike.
Rinse hair only with lukewarm water. Hot water dries the hair and makes it brittle.
Condition your hair every day. Each time you shampoo, use a conditioner afterward to soften and detangle the hair.
Deep condition every other week. At least twice a month, use a deep conditioner that contains protein to strengthen the hair. Try a hot oil treatment with olive oil to intensely moisten the hair follicles.
Be gentle with your hair when it’s wet. Don’t pull, tug, twist, comb, or be rough with your hair in any way.
Never use chemical treatments on your hair. Despite making curly hair look longer, relaxers also slow the growth of black men’s hair.
Avoid hot hair-care products. Heat from hot irons, blow-dryers, and other appliances damages the hair. Set your blow-dryer on a low temperature setting.
Protect hair from heat damage by applying a protein lotion before you dry.
Lubricate your hair. Applying a moisturizer to the hair can greatly reduce the amount of split ends and breakage and promote growth. But be sure to use only a little so your hair doesn’t become oily.
Massage your scalp every day. Massaging the scalp circulates blood and brings nutrients to the scalp. Place both hands on the head and move your fingers in slow, circular movements. Your scalp should feel warm and tingly — that’s how you know the blood is flowing to the scalp, helping hair grow.
Add vitamin B supplements to your diet, as vitamin B has been shown to help increase the rate of hair growth.
Bone up on protein either by eating a high protein diet filled with meat, fish, eggs, avocados, nuts, and beans, or by adding protein supplements to your drinks, as protein strengthens hair and encourages growth.
Increase your folic acid intake. Folic acid is critical to hair health and growth. You can easily eat a diet high in folic acid by making soybeans, green vegetables, and carrots a part of your daily menu.

By following these simple tips, black men can easily grow their hair to get any look they want.

Skin & Hair Care Tips For Men

It’s a common assumption that men, in general, are unconcerned about their hair and skin care problems, but that’s not always true. Since hair is such a big part of your appearance, keeping it well maintained is important.

Following the simple guidelines below will put you on your way to a vibrant looking head of hair.

Ingrown Hairs & Razor Bumps

If quality products for African American skin care are difficult to find, black men’s skin care is almost impossible to find. It’s important to find products formulated to meet common needs most black men share like the need for added moisture, additional oil and problems with Pseudofolliculitis Barbae aka Razor Bumps.

For a black man, shaving can be a particularly painful task. It has been reported that 60-80% of black men suffer from razor bumps, at least to some degree. Other ethnic men suffer from these as well.

So what’s a brother who prefers to go beardless supposed to do?

The easiest solution would be to cut down the number of times you shave, but this is not always possible. Aside from that you can use a single- blade razor or clippers to cut the hair short above the skin. Keep skin moisturized and shave the beard in the same direction that the hairs are growing. Many men shave against the grain, which is incorrect. Have a barber “map” your face. Face mapping determines the direction in which you should shave so that it’s consistent with beard growth.

In terms of products, acids and alcohol are damaging to hair and skin and need to be avoided. Stick with products that include high-quality vitamins and oils that are friendly to your skin.

Dandruff & Your Scalp

Dandruff is the clear indicator that you have a dry scalp. A dry scalp makes it much harder to get waves. Dandruff can be caused by washing hair too much and stripping it of its natural oils too much or not washing it enough, and it is also caused by not oiling/moisturizing the scalp. Waves will be easier to obtain if your scalp is moisturized and soft so waves can be formed easier than having a dry hard scalp. Keep your scalp moisturized but don’t put too much grease or moisturizer because this can clog the pores in your scalp and cause acne.

Moisturize daily

Your hair needs to be moisturized daily, whether you shampooed or not, to replenish hydration that is lost through dry conditions or indoor heating. A simple oil can be applied to the roots of your hair to make your hair look softer and help you avoid flakes and dry scalp. Try sweet almond or coconut oil; apply a little to your fingertips and run your hands through your hair to distribute evenly. Apply a little oil each day, especially when your hair feels dry or brittle to the touch.

Choose a Style

Choose a hairstyle that speaks to you and works with your face shape. Shaving your head is one option, as is cutting it close to the scalp with clippers and. If you prefer a more ethnic look, hairstyles like a ‘fro, dreads, or braids can give you a low maintenance look that gives you a more individual style, but if you’re going to go that route, understand it requires some work! You don’t want to be a slave to your style, so choose something that is easy to maintain and that won’t need a lot of upkeep.

Product Selection

Choosing products that are specifically made for you can help you get healthier, better looking hair and skin. Most retail products readily available in drugstores are formulated for the smoother hair shafts of other ethnicities. Look for products free of alcohol and other drying ingredients and rich in oils and moisturizers. You may find that shopping at a beauty supply store or neighborhood barber shop will yield you a greater array of products you need

Product Recommendations

Brushes

One should never brush the hair while it is wet. The brush puts strain on the hair that can damage the follicles and cause early breakage and damage. This can seriously slow the natural growth of the hair. Even dry, one should use a wide toothed comb when styling the hair, if longer. This puts less stress on the strands and leads to less breakage.

A hard brush should mostly used for achieving deeper waves. To simply lay your hair down, a soft brush will do the trick, as it controls those random hairs that tend to stick up. A medium brush does a little bit of both. Try brands such as Diane, Annie, and Wave Encorcer.

Moisturizers

There are tons of moisturizers out there but it’s best to experiment with different products to see what works the best with your hair texture. Remember — the more natural, the better. Cream of Nature, Olive Creme, Carrot Creme, and Motions Moisturizer are common uses. Be on the look out for products containing shea butter, coconut oil, or olive oil.

Pomades and Greases

These are mainly used just for hold and definition, but pomades are a bit unhealthy for your hair due to the fact that they contain petroleum. If you do use products such as Indian H**p, Doo Gro, Sportin Waves, Dax etc., make sure that you don’t use too much or else you’ll find yourself dealing with clogged pores and caking.
