Hello, everyone!
My name is Paul, I am from Estonia, it's a tiny country in the Northern Europe, somewhere between Finland and Russia :)
I am 36 and have been wearing long hair for 10 years at least...sad to say my mane is not very long, my hair stopped getting longer after reaching my shoulder blades
but I enjoy this length

here are a couple of photos of me

Hi my name is Mic! I am 17 years old. All my life my mother has given me the “at home haircuts” because my father is ill and has a surgery for something different every year. So we try to save every penny we have for him. My hair looks like an awkward mushroom and I try to tell her to do something different but it’s hard as I have severe scalp psariosis. Basically my skin cells grow rapidly, while everyone else’s grow normally. So I’m kind of chained to one haircut. As my mother and father grew up with no nonsense parents they always tell me I can’t have long hair. I can’t wait to grow it! I want to know how can I grow out bangs that are cut in a straight line so I don’t have to have those be so blunt. My hair grows fast and is thick. So it’s a yikes. Thick brown bangs and a bowlcut at 17, life is rough. Any comments are encouraged! When did you all start growing your hair out. And did anyone have the dreaded bowlcut? As a kid/teen? Have a great night/morning!

Hello MLHH! :)
I'm Avi! I'm really happy to meet you all. Since I was a kid I've always known I've wanted to grow really long hair- its just something I knew was right for me and it really beckoned to me for reasons I really don't know. I still have that dream- however, I'm a minor(16 right now) and my parents are very strict about this sort of thing- I'm still a short-haired teen at the moment unfortunately. When I head off to college in about 1.5 years I plan to start growing my hair out- I'm looking to get to floor length. And I know it's a very long journey, one that will probably take over a decade- but I'm very set on taking that journey. I just know it :) Seeing that so many of you have the same calling makes me happy that I have others to relate to and help me on this journey. I just wanted to start to get to know you guys and hear from you about your personal tips regarding hair care and where exactly to start when I start growing out- I want to make sure to keep my hair as healthy as possible and I want to know what I'm doing when I start, so that I don't screw up somewhere along the way and mess up the work I've put in. So yeah, I just want to hear input in all regards from y'all- what challenges have you faced? how do you take care to ensure your hair stays healthy? what do you recommend I do at the moment as I still have 1.5 years before I leave the house?

I appreciate anything you guys can give me, thanks so much :)

For the philosophers among you I found this beautiful quote on the internet:

To romanticize the world is to make us aware of the magic, mystery and wonder of the world; it is to educate the senses to see the ordinary as extraordinary, the familiar as strange, the mundane as sacred, the finite as infinite.

This beautiful young man took the pen name Novalis, but his real name was Georg Philipp Friedrich Freiherr von Hardenberg (2nd May 1772 – 25th March 1801). Like many philosophers and poets of that era, he died very young of tuberculosis. He also had long natural hair which you can see in the photo.

The symbolism is there, long hair being a sign of "nobility of spirit" as many philosophers in the tradition of German Idealism and Romanticism expressed. I am presently reading an English translation of some of his work, which is beautiful.

Am I the only one who has a problem with my curly long hair. None of my other long haired friends have it and i wonder if its a common problem. It constantly gets knotted and it is difficult to go swimming.

Thanks

I've been a fan of this board (and men's long hair in general) for quite some time. There has always been something majestic and powerful about a man with lovely flowing locks. I've always fantasized about having a long, dark and thick braid of hair that would flow down my back like a true warrior of olden time. I feel inspired by all the brave long haired men who frequent this website and wish to join your ranks. The only problem is that my hair is curly. I have what many call a "Jew-fro" and because of this my hair doesn't get "long". It just gets bigger. All my guy friends make fun of me for it calling me mean names like "curly boy", "Shirley Temple", and the worst of all "Pube Head". My question is can I still post my hair updates here even though I don't exactly fit the ideal Men's Long Hair Hyper Board image?

Seeing as we have a multi-faith crew here, Happy December. I have been visiting the site off and on for a while in the last few months and am happy to see people being themselves and such. I am happy to see that there are new people posting and glad to see people from Russia on board here too.

I want to give a shout out to Don in Israel and say I am happy that you are having a good time in Israel and that you are enjoying the Holy Land. I really appreciated the general invitation to join you in Israel because depending on how long standing that is, I may end up taking you up on that. It would help me as a Orthodox Christian because it would allow me to have a base from which to jump off in order to get to the sites I would want to see.

I am not so sure about doing synagogue stuff without permission of an Orthodox Priest or Bishop, but I would enjoy getting to know the local area from your perspective. I enjoy "Jewish" food like latkes and Hammantaschens since I hung out with the Hillel group at college. I learned how to cook Kosher and was kind of off and on with a lady who was part of the Hillel, so I have gotten to see some Jewish life from the close up without being Jewish myself.

Hitting up Haifa and the Med. would be fun. I keep watching the developments with the move of the U.S. Embassy from Tel-Aviv-Yafo to Jerusalem. I hope that Israel does not get invaded when and if the Trump administration moves the Embassy. The U.N. resolution against the U.S. and Israel yesterday was disheartening. Let's hope there is not another intifada with the move.

One interesting connection between the Cherokee and the Jews is that there appears to have been Jewish people among the Cherokee early on in the history of the Jewish presence in North America. Check out People of One Fire and see what you think. It is a web-site run by an unenrolled Muscogee man. He points out that cultural things seem to be similar between Jewish people and Cherokee people in some cases. Whether there is a strong case for the Cherokee giving refuge to the Jewish people or not when the Jewish people were fleeing the effects of the Inquisition in Spain, is a question, but it is an interesting thing to check out nonetheless. I am an unenrolled person but I speak Cherokee as one of my first languages and I would be fascinated to see Israel from a Hebrew's perspective.

If this sort of thing does come up in the future, I would want to set-up some kind of payment for the stay and food if that were part of the visit. I would also want to make sure that you would be comfortable with Orthodox Christian items being in your home such as icons or books. I wear a cross like most Orthodox Christians do and I do not know if that would be offensive to you or not. I usually wear it under the clothing but for events like swimming, the cross would probably be seen if a shirt were not worn. If you needed help around the house or something like that while I were there, then that would be fine if you wanted to do in kind payment or something like that. Being that I am culturally American Indian, doing in kind trades and stuff like that is normal for me, just to put that out there.

Hope everyone is having a good December.

Hello,

I would like to grow my hair out.

Thanks
-Thanks

Hi Everybody, next year March I will have been growing for 7 years. This is my progress so far. Slowly getting there. Thanks Lance

Just some ramblings here. Basically, I had my hair long for 4 years. I cut it in Jan 2016. What followed was a strange perception of energy.

One of the major feelings that I felt, was I felt "spiritually naked" I had less intution. I couldn't pick up on vibes as much as I normally can. For instance, with long hair, I could pick up on the energy of an entire city or region etc.

When I was clean cut, I basically had no intuition. I also felt more hypersexual. This one I don't really understand. I guess I was more "Sexually acceptable" to women in general. I vibed more with the attractive women I went near.

With long hair, I have to be careful where I look. In a sense that, If I stare at people too long they get offended. From the years of 2014-2016, I walked a certain trailer (2 years) every so often. I was drawn to this trail by the lake, and other places like it for the years I had my long hair.

When there I would get complete calm and peace.

After I cut my hair, going to those places, I didn't feel it anymore. They say that hair is sort of an Antennae for perception I suppose. It receives different frequencies. I suppose this is true. Recently I've grown my hair out long-ish again, and I am starting to pick up on those "vibes" once again. Those calm vibes.

Whereas, if I had my hair short I wouldn't be able to "read" the calmness.

Hard to explain.

My energy levels fluctuate. I guess you could say I was more physically active with short hair. It's sort of like an entire body of energy. I notice my psyche and subconcious is more directed to wordly things.

Long hair I tend to keep my psyche and subconcious directed towards spiritual growth etc.

Hope some of this make sense

And find a place to park
You hop into the backseat
Where you know it's nice and dark
You're just about to move in,
Thinkin' it's a breeze
There's a light in your eyes
And then a guy says
"Out of the car, Longhair"
"Louise, you're comin' with me
And no more movies"

An article titled "Shattering What Society Calls Masculine" was just published on November 19, 2017. It involves men with long hair. See it at the link below.

It was something like October 2013 when I last cut my hair. I already sent in a phone this last summer, in a mess and against a bare torso. This is with my hair brushed, but the usual cell phone and mirror job for the photo. The ends are creeping down to my lower back, but growth is slow now. I'm grateful for what I've got!

This is a fantasy. I wish I was a male Rapunzel with crazy long hair and that will be awesome. I want long hair as then i can brush my hair for a long time and not five minutes cuz that isn't enough. THEN I CAN MARRY A PRINCE AS I AM GAY :)!!

Hey guys, the 2018 Hairforce Kalender is now available. Check out the magnificent long hair on the guys chosen to represent each month of 2018. Take a deep breath before you start.

My name's Pete, I am from Poland, it's a country in the eastern part of Europe. Just want to say HI and share with you some photos.
I've been growing out my hair for 5 years, usually wear it in a ponytail, I like segmented ponytail for practical reasons, it's easier to make than a braid and it helps keep the hair in place

Best wishes to everyone!

Hello members of the mlhh, I have come to you dudes today about my knotted hair. It's so annoying! I brush my hair when I straighten it every morning and various times of the day. Am I due for a little trim or a cleanup, maybe a little deep conditioning? Please leave me with some suggestions as to what I should do.

Best regards,

Atticus.

Hello MLHH I have always had short cut hair, and even a shaved head at times, but I really want tot try it out! Is there any sort of special addition things I must be concerned with in my conversion? And some suggestions like Shampoo, designs for starters, color, etc. Thanks!

I remember seeing a link to a YouTube video titled "Alex Wooley Documentary" and it was about a man with very long hair, but that video was deleted before I could watch it. I really wanted to watch it! Speaking of which, are there any other YouTube videos of men with long hair that you guys liked but got deleted?
