You're not at all wrong with the first part.

But I can tell you with hair like that, you can actually just roll out of bed and have it look good. But that presupposes you've actually taken care of the hair and that it's cut well.

Definitely wasn't a great stylist if that's how unevenly they cut the front, but also that dudes hair is kinda dry, so perhaps with product he could make it look better.

I had horrible problems with a frizzy mess of hair until started using a leave in conditioner spray and a bit of hair oil. I also sleep with a silk bonnet. But yeah, when there's a suitable amount of both, the next day I'll just wake up and slightly brush it and it looks great. Whereas last year I couldn't even get a brush through it. And if I don't wear the bonnet I don't need to brush even, as it squishes the hair a bit.

If I style it I use a tiny bit pomade, but like a really soft one. Almost like a cream.

But yeah you're definitely right that someone should teach men about hair care. I'm still just learning but my hair is already much better. Just would've enjoyed knowing these things in my 20's for a gorgeous mane. I don't have male pattern baldness in my family really but it does thin a bit.
