Need some help on what to do.

Grew it out for a while then decided to grow it out even more for a Halloween costume.

Yeh, the hairline is receding but the crown looks fine. Try taking better care of what you have. Take a biotin gummy and use some strengthener type shampoo/conditioner, get a trim.

[u/Feisty_War_1003]

The length and the all hair gathered below the ears, is creating a contrast with the thinner top. Long hair notoriously exaggerates thinning har. My advice is to lose the length and get a shorter haircut.👍

[u/CNote_89 → u/Feisty_War_1003]

This is the problem, well said. Def needs to be cut shorter.

[u/MistressLuciFurr]

You have a good face. Your hair does not look well cared for. You are not at the point of needing to shave. You seem to have a finer hair type so the weight of the length is compounding the thinner appearance. If you want to keep it long you need to really invest in maintaining it. Long hair is a commitment to hair care. However I think a shorter hairstyle is best here.

[u/mjr214 → u/MistressLuciFurr]

Agree! You need a volumizing / thickening shampoo and conditioner and you need to wash your hair at least twice a week. Right now your hair is flat and exentuating a slightly receding hairline biggest the oil is weighing it down.

[u/sasha_cyanide]

Take it shorter and you’re golden. The long hair isn’t suiting you anymore.

If you don’t want a completely shorter haircut maybe find a style you like with some layers.

[u/AboveGroundPoolQueen → u/PickledOkraLlama333]

This is the way!!!!!!! You would look so hot I cut like this. Literally bring this picture to the stylist. And I do mean a stylist, not a barber, not Supercuts. Go get a 50 or $100 haircut at a really good stylist. If you don’t already have one, ask a woman you know that always has beautiful hair for a referral to their stylist.

[u/Feisty_War_1003 → u/AboveGroundPoolQueen]

There isn't nearly the density for that style, even if the stylist is a magician

[u/Bored-to-Death629 → u/PickledOkraLlama333]

Ya bro could use a good stylist cut before making any decisions to go shorter or bald. It’s a pretty bad haircut and styling rn.

That said, as a man, long hair takes a lot of time, money and accessories to upkeep.

[u/PickledOkraLlama333 → u/PickledOkraLlama333]

And you could try those “Texture powder” products

[u/OkApricot1677 → u/PickledOkraLlama333]

Texture powder is the way for fine hair

You don't need to shave, but you'd look amazing if you did.

[u/Optimixto]

You need a new haircut, but you aren't balding.

[u/tFromkansas]

[u/WorthCartographer231]

With those cheekbones a buzz cut or fully shave would look fantastic on you!

[u/anzacoo]

Yup, go super short or shaved. You’ve got a great face and great shaped head for it!!

[u/aabbee9]

A new hairdo, but keep holding.

[u/New-Bluebird9979]

U don't need to shave your head but honestly I would change your hairstyle. Get a fade, little longer on top. Don't style it so your hair on top is completely flat - you will be fine for a few years

[u/Thecheckmate]

[u/rostoffario]

Dude, you have the great facial features to pull off a shaved head. Those sexy eyes, the dark brows and that nose. Damn!

[u/Cirias]

You've got Paul Kaye vibes, I agree with others take it shorter and you should be golden

[u/lightr3nd]

Do? Start a religion I guess?

[u/Aw123x]

Where’s the hair loss? I don’t see it.

[u/goldroosters]

mullet time

[u/Mattolithic]

Go check out my post on this subreddit. You'll feel better bro

[u/TroyTroyofTroy]

Definitely hold. You don’t have even remotely enough thinning or receding to make shaving essential. I think you’re a handsome guy and would look good with a buzz or even shave, but not out of necessity.

I think you have grooming and hair care issues more so than hair loss issues.

I agree with others that a shorter cut would probably look better - and definitely be easier to manage - but I think if you were invested in taking much better care of your hair and beard you might be able pull off the long hair too.

[u/SorryBeach199]

This hairstyle is 100% holding you back. Go to a hair salon and get a professional cut and style. You will 100% level up!

[u/damnfunk]

You need a shorter hair style... Longer hair making it look like a mullet that doesn't want to grow.

[u/Mikey_Wonton]

Homie, clean up your hair and beard. So much potential being wasted.

[u/mudshock]

[u/Mediocre_Father1478]

Your hair is similar to mine. I think we are destined for greatness one day, but right now shorter hair is the move.

[u/Not_a_Prof_Moriarty]

Nah man, you just need to go to an actual barber and have it cleaned/cut/styled. Not cost cutters or sports clip, a full on barber.

[u/Apprehensive_Push245]

Mullet

[u/PhilThePotaytow]

Go find a good barber. They’ll get you sorted out real fast. The council doesn’t need to know you inquired about this. 🤫

[u/DoubleNickle67]

Brother.

Ya just need a good haircut and clean up.

[u/Fuzzy_Junket924]

[u/h8tetris]

Update?

[u/Creepy-Bedroom-7788]

get a shorter haircut and try medication , it's definetly enough to try and save and I think it still can

[u/ComprehensiveLink210]

You have great hair! A strategic haircut could buy you five more years of luscious locks. Go short on the sides and a little longer on the top! You definitely have time!!

[u/Mother_Glass_5095]

You’ve got plenty of hair, just do something better with it

[u/Vivid_Ad7079]

Clean it up and hang on

[u/Knucklecum]

Get a haircut you hippy

[u/JuhPuh42]

Get a real haircut?

[u/DetroitUberDriver]

Idk man but do something with both your head and facial hair. You legit look like a bum. I doubt shaving it all off is necessary, there are many styles that could probably work.

[u/Commercial-Finish178]

GO BALD ASAP

[u/Commercial-Finish178 → u/Commercial-Finish178]

actually i lied. someone else said to just cut it shorter, that could work too. ur not balding in the back, and frankly the front ain’t too bad either, the long hair is just not working for u tho

[u/Next_Two_9004]

Do it.

[u/No_Specialist4090]

He should jump on meds and keep his hair forever. That's what he should do
