There’s a lot of nuance to this topic I think. In my (VERY anecdotal) experience men often have thicker hair which tends to be less brittle less quickly.
At least that’s my experience as trans woman, around the time my treatment started my hair got slightly thinner and more prone to damage. So it’s probably also a hormonal thing.
Cis man here with long hair. My hair is super thin and breaks like crazy. I went to dermatologist (thought I was going bald lol) and it seems that hair changes a lot between people and some advice I’ve seen online isn’t as general as much as people think, like not washing your hair everyday (she told me my hair NEEDS to be washed everyday cause it gets mega oily quickly).
But yeah, longer hair needs more care for sure, like, I had never used hair conditioner before but now it’s a must, started using a hair drier sometimes too. I used to think that women taking a long time to shower and get ready we’re just slow but fuck, long hair is a lot of work.
