Hello again mlhh. Going for my 3rd and final long haired journey. Wish me luck ! It has been 11 years since I cut my hair to support my family after losing employment. Not looking forward to the awkward phase but I am determined. Not as many long haired dudes here as when I posted 11 years ago. I will try to encourage others as others have encouraged me. Just to let younger dudes know. Even at 49 I still get rassed and harassed about starting to grow it long again. But at this point in my life. I really dont care. I usually tell the wise crackers you dont have the balls or guts to grow your hair long
Hope to hear from others here on the board ?!

Thank you For the compliment. I too think it will look good. Unfortunately since Im in construction I will probably have to shave it to wear a respirator sooner or later .
Steve
Can you wear a respirator with a beard that is kept short?
Any alternatives besides shaving the beard?
There is an alternative, a full face mask which still would conform to regulations. Might just have to sport a gotee.
Love that photo of you in Civil War era clothing !
Your hair looks fantastic also !
Hoping to get to that length
Hi Steve, good luck on this time around. You sound determined, I'm sure you'll succeed. It's funny, your at the age of "I don't give a crap what you think". Im at the age of "leave him alone, he's just a crazy old man", which is still "I don't give a crap"

Good to see that you're back.
Third time is a charm. Go for it. Go all the way; to terminal length.
