Hi Darrin.
Yes I am....but honestly not much anymore. I wish I could get the additional 4 inches more per year. I think I got approx 2 additional inches after 2 trims of 1/2 inch each. It's not too bad...but I'd like more!!!
Happy Holidays!
Hey AD,
Looks like you havent reached terminal length yet. I dont know what my terminal length is either. Happy Holidays!
All the best to you in 2019 and thank you for the inspirational update pic.Awesome mane my friend.Cheers!

Thank you Mark. Hope many others will make uplifting updates too. All the best to you in 2019 as well.
Hi A.D.,
Wow! What an update! Your hair is awesome looking and I just love the texture! My gosh I will be very happy if I can get this much growth in 6 years! What is your wash/condition routine? Do you mostly wear it down? I am very inspired to keep growing mine now! My hair has thinned out considerably and seems to grow slower nowadays. But I'm not giving up yet!
Please take care and I can't wait to see next year's update!

Hi Ted
Thank you for your kind words!
I wash my hair almost daily with the Giovanni 2Chic Ultra Volume shampoo. We have a well at home so the water is always clean. Yes, I keep my hair down at work most of the time. However, at home, since my wife & kids unfortunately cannot stand my long hair (or maybe they are just jealous!), I tie them up for dinner.
Hope the New Year brings you HEALTH, happiness and many inches of long hair growth!
Hi A.D.,
I bet that well water is really good for your hair! I must say your hair looks great even though you wear it down most of the time. Many people seem to have problems with long hair when they wear it down a lot. They complain about split ends and frizz. Also, I have read that washing every day can cause problems. I have had to start washing my hair every day now to prevent oil build up on my scalp. I think maybe your family is jealous of your wonderful hair!:) I have never heard of that brand of shampoo. Do you condition your hair?
I thank you kindly for the well wishes! My health seems to be holding up so far. I haven't had to go to the hospital lately thank the Lord. I am still on dialysis 3 times per week for 4 hours a session. I am trying to get put back on the kidney transplant list. I was taken off since my heart became weak. One day at a time I say! As far as my hair, it's growing but slowly. I seem to have lost a lot of the thickness I used to have. But it doesn't seem to be balding. I'm not giving up. I figure at the 2 year mark it should look pretty good. I might post an update at the 1-1/2 year point.
Thanks again for your kind thoughts! Please keep that wonderful mane growing and I look forward to your next update!
Ted
