Nah, more like:
Man: Washes hair daily. That’s it.
Woman: Only washes/wets hair sometimes. Uses lots and lots of various chemicals to force various styles. Lots of blow drying. Hair dyes. Then wonders why hair is obviously chemically and physically damaged.
The problem is most women put TOO much effort into their hair, trying to make it things it’s not, and end up damaging it. Men tend to keep it short and simple and their hair doesn’t end up as damaged.
Also, you notice the Fabio guys a lot more than you notice the broccoli haired dorks. You remember that one hot guy more than you remember the dozens of unkempt ones. Add in that people who can’t grow nice long hair tend to keep it short and you have all kinds of selection biases.
But the hair length of a lioness and lion vs female human and male human is inverse…
I’m beginning to think this meme is just supposed to be humorous!
What? Someone is going on the internet and telling jokes? How is this allowed?
What is their agenda? Which nefarious shadowy group are the promoting by doing this?
tbh I don’t think men generally have better hair
shampoo is bad for your head
only using a no wax high protein conditioner scrubbing your scalp then scrubby/combed out rinse will change your hair for the better in two weeks.
all the pollution, sweat, salt, urea, and dead skin rinse out with the conditioner. the oil left on your hair will give your hair body and curl.
for reals.
Also don’t shampoo every day if you’re going to, do it once or twice a week depending on sebum production.
When your hair is short, you can wash it with Gatorade and it’ll look acceptable. The longer it is, the more you have to maintain it. I’m a guy who grew his hair out.
I’m a long haired freaky people and have been for almost 40 years but I found my hair is healthier if I rinse it regularly, wash it once or twice a month and condition it at the same time.
I use Nizoral AD (some almost medicated antindandruff thing) and Head and shoulders conditioner twice a month at most.
I still have my long luxurious hippy hair and I’m told there is no recession yet so I got that going for me.
As another middle-aged long hair guy who has been approached numerous times by women asking about my haircare routine, I think there are multiple components to this:
-
Hair is most definitely affected by hormones, multiple women told me that their hair becomes straw-like during periods or how they lost a lot of hair after pregnancy and I was like sorry can’t relate 😅 I honestly believe if more men didn’t cut their hair short they’d be generally better looking than women’s, well, until they start balding.

Some kind of pink tax or whatever. Every shampoo that I tried in a cute semi-transparent colored bottle that boasted some bullshit like lavender extract, durian aroma, ginkgo biloba seeds and such, has always destroyed my hair and took months to recover. Cheap shampoos in plain-ish looking packaging(pantene, head&shoulders, syoss) have worked well for me, with no noticeable difference from the fancy 5x pricier shampoos that my girlfriend has forced me to try. My cousin even uses plain soda bar and his hair is looking even better than mine.

Less is more. It seems like every other woman I know are constantly fucking with their hair all the time. Wash two times a day, apply conditioner, then another conditioner, then a spray, and serum, a gel, and mousse, add perfume on top, mix a whole chemical lab on top of their head, then curl them, then straighten them back up, apply a different tightly knit hairstyle every day, then cut them short because of a break up, then color them, then bleach and color them again into another color, then cut them with a guillotine because that’s the trend nowadays, then straight up rip chunks of them out because of stress. Like girl, all you need is to fuck off your hair and just wash them once every 3-5 days, and only rinse on others. Then just let the nature do it’s thing, and if it doesn’t, you need to pay a visit to a trichologist, dermatologist and probably also gastroenterologist and therapist, not yet another bottle on the shelf.

It’s so weird, I’ve tried various shampoos and conditioners of every type and my hair just seems happiest with the cheapest shampoo I can find with absolutely no conditioner. With anything else I wind up with horible dandruff, hair which gets greasy within 6 hours of taking a shower, or hair which dries out so bad it looks like I got the worlds shittiest perm. But as long as I use some cheap ass generic mens shampoo that’s scented like a verb then my hair is fine.
Your hair might be addicted to whatever forever chemicals the dollar tree shampoo is made of
Also the specialized shampoo is 15.99, the 17-in-1 everything-soap is 1.19.
But the specialized shampoo is pink, so that you know that’s the one you’re supposed to buy.
Assuming there’s any truth to that, why wouldn’t women just use the 6 in 1 shampoo?
…And man-pants with pockets, while we’re on the topic. I suppose there might be issues in the hip-department there, though.
Almost everything on the market is shit and will destroy your hair. That includes the 6 in 1 shampoo, men just usually have less hair.
The 6-in-1 products are great overall but mine struggles with thicker carpet. YMMV
The 7 in 1 product mentions “shag”.
So you can use it as lube?
Anything is a lube if you’re brave enough.
My 8-1 has menthol in it. Do not recommend for lube.

They don’t mean the floor kinda carpet 😎
Now I don’t know whether you’re making a joke about a thick bush or a fursuit.
I’m sorry, but men’s 6 in 1 soap sucks ass. The moment I tried shampoo and conditioner for women, my (at the time short) hair got way better and I never looked back. Now that I have long hair I’m not even going to consider washing with the hair destroyer 2000 again. The image is wrong, the “conditional soap” is way better because it’s not just soap.
I’m pretty sure how well your hair looks (or really, how well you look overall) has more to do with your physical and (importantly) mental health than with what shampoo you’re using.
It’s just that in the US specifically, the extremely poor mental health of many women has been so normalized that we don’t even perceive it as such anymore. It’s just that society treats women so absurdly badly, it’s not even something i can put into words anymore. And that shows.
Let me introduce you to Dr bronners miracle soap. I literally brush my teeth with it, and use it for laundry.
