Anything a woman can do, a guy can do also.

Well, almost anything. Look, let's not get into politics here, but a bro-out is something that is happening and something you should familiarize yourself with before you head to the salon.

A bro-out is when a dude gets a blowout. You know, a blowout, that thing women do where they go to the salon and pay someone else to shampoo their hair and blow dry it. Now men are doing it, too, and it's taking the world by storm. We think. BuzzFeed posted a video about it, so it's basically fact.

But Esoterica Studios in the Bishop Arts District has been providing blowouts to dudes with long hair for years. Salon owner Ale Bonilla says about 30 percent of his clients are male and 5 percent of them have long hair. And like the women, they get blowouts.
