Most mens personal hair care regiment consists of shampoo and gel.You go to the salon or grocery store and pick up the first manly looking bottle of gel you see never asking what it actually does for fear of looking prissy.Get home put it in after your shower and comb your hair in place perfectly knowing full well after your hair is dry it cant be touched for fear of flaking or cracking your otherwise perfectly molded ken doll hair.

I just want you men out there to know there is something better and easier!
Why do you need to use conditioner on your hair?Next to scalp health the best reason for men with short hair still need to use conditioner because it gives your styling products something to bond to.This in turn helps keep your styling products from flaking !(nothin worse than a flaky head)
