Nope.....just downright helpful....lol

I love to hear that men do their daughters hair, its so endearing.

Having said that, there are plenty of gay hairdressers who maybe associate the craft with femininity. In this day and age though, its all hands on deck, from doing hair to cooking, to sowing, to cleaning.......if you know how to and it needs doing, then you should do it.

S

you and many have a weird concept of masculaine behaviour, what you are describing is tasks, masculine behaviour goes much deeper, I think that is the problem with guys nowdays they just don't get it, they associate masculine with physical strength, aghressive attitude......and job?

check this my hairdresser is a male, the best hairdresser in the world, and believe I have tried from expensive to cheap but he is fantastic, they way he cuts hair is like he is deigning the engine of a car...big up to XXL hair design in walthamstow.

Is my hairdresser gay....nopes

let is define real masculanity first before looking at petty stuff, a guy could do ballet dance and still be straight.

You right, but it still just seems like a girly thing to do hair. Now, I used to make my money cutting hair in college as the campus barber on the side, but not styling the women's hair. I guess a man would know best, since the men are the one's paying the most attention to it.

By the way, I think masculinity does need to be define. Especially in the context of how after Africans get Western culture imposed on them, there is this proliferation of homosexuality in our community seemingly. So it certainly needs to be discussed.

I personally don't think so. He just may have an inclination for it. I am a little worried about the prison guard part of it only because I know that hair care is very important in prison. I am sure that your uncle is okay and just a very caring man.

I personally would not have the patience to sit and do hair....

I have an uncle who wouldn't do his children's hair just because he is a man. My aunt was out of the house at the time, and he was willing to let the kids walk out all pickey headed. It made me look at him as being really petty.

Idria Elba does his daughter's hair every day apparently. It makes him no less masculine to me.

Glad you got specific. It's kinda funny all the different perspectives on this.

It's masculine while in the barbershop getting a hair cut with the man touching your head and turning it different ways and angles for the perfect cut, but putting cornrows in another mans head is another thing.

Somebody should write a handbook.

BP if you ever visit Africa dont let me see any pics of you holding next man's hand....lol

Funny I rented the documentary Lost Boys about the Sudanese refugees that were resettled in the US. They were all in the apartment talking discussing all the social rules. They were going over how you're not supposed to touch a man here or it's considered gay. I was ROFL when they went over this.

No biggie at least for the Professionals..Most of the weddings in Nigeria the men have taken over getting the gals hair all fixed up on the big day..as kids we did unravel our mom's plaits

You know alot of the unwritten rules of ettiquiette(sp?) here can be perplexing when you just coming.

When I used to play American football I never was able to get myself to slap a man on the ass for encouragement or congradulatoins while in so called 'hyper masculine' mode. Most he'd get from me was a pat on the back if not the shoulder. Just was something weird about it. When the first started doing that i was like wth is this?

If a man offered to do up my hair (and he wasn't gay) I think I would fall in love with him. I agree that it's such a beautiful thing to see a man take care of the women in his life...whatever way that is. Tt's not the action itself but the thought behind the action
