My 2-Minute Hair Routine (No Blow Dryer!)
About this video
McGoff demonstrates his simple, two-minute daily hair routine for maintaining a basic side part without blow-dryers or excessive products. He explains his approach to towel drying, product selection between pomade, putty, and clay, and his technique for styling hair with minimal effort while working with natural hair growth patterns.
Key takeaways
- McGoff advocates for a minimalist hair routine using only one product and no blow-dryer, prioritizing efficiency and practicality over complex styling
- McGoff recommends choosing hair products based on hair length and thickness—putty for short thick hair, clay for longer hair—and argues clay offers a good balance between hold and natural appearance
- McGoff suggests reducing shampoo frequency to preserve natural oils, arguing that less shampooing leads to better hair behavior and requires less styling product
