    Getting your hair trimmed on a regular basis will prevent rats tails, and that's pretty low maintenance! Just pop into the barbers every 6 weeks or 2 months or, if you're not too fussy, get a friend to do it.
    You should also make sure to use conditioner regularly, otherwise you'll get horrific knots!

    The 'Pain' that is maintenance? Are you for real?

    I've got long hair, and lll you do with it is wash it when you're showering, and give it a blowdry for a mere 5 minutes. That's it! If that's too much "Pain" then I seriously fear for the state of your hygene.

    Hmm... Maybe a rat tail would suit you in that case. ;)

    This wording implies that they can also sometimes not do so.
    This in turn implies that you are in denial.

    I grew up in the 80s and can remember a time when many, many people actually requested such things from hairdressers. Any stigma they have is far too little IMO.
