How to Shampoo Men's Hair

Series Summary

A person's hair says a lot about who they are and where they fit in the cultures and subcultures of human society. We human beings are the only species on planet Earth that cut and style their hair to symbolize something, whether it's personality, religious conviction, tradition, social status, membership in a group, or self-expression. Hair styles have zip codes, gender boundaries, proper names, and life cycles. We make value judgements about people based on the way they style their hair.

Whether we like it or not, if we hold down a job or interact with other people on a semi-regular basis, most of us will need to do something with our hair every day. Some people respond to this expectation by just cutting all of it off. Others ignore the social norm completely at the expense of stigma and ridicule.

Video Transcript

"Hi! This Joyce of Major League Trim on behalf of Expert Village. In this clip, we'll be talking about assessing your client before the haircut. This is Nate here. Nate has curly hair and he's looking for a low maintenance haircut. He's looking for something that he can easily wash and wear with very little product. To start him off, I'm going to rinse him out. You want to make sure the temperature of the shampoo isn't too hot or too cold. He also told me earlier that he has oily hair, so we want to make sure that we get the proper shampoo for him, for his skin type and his hair type. You want to thoroughly rinse his hair. Make sure you get everything without getting water in his ears. Then we'll go with American Crew. This is American Crew shampoo for normal to oily hair. Make sure you emulsify it in your fingers while your hands are wet. You want to massage the scalp properly. If you need extra shampoo, feel free to do so. You want to make sure you get all the pressure points in his scalp to make sure that he's comfortable. You want him to be as comfortable and relaxing as possible. This is normally the client's favorite part of the haircut. This is where they get to relax and this is where they start to be comfortable with their stylist."
