Hey, my name's Brian, I'm 17, and this is my obviously my first post here. I'm came looking for tips and wisdom on what to do with my hair, becasuse I am growing it out, and I don't know where I'm goin'. Basically, this is my second time growing it. I started around the beggining of 10th grade, mostly because I had acne on my forehead, and with uber short hair, it was kind of embarassing. I let it grow out, and didn't stop 'til I hit shoulder length (it was really puffy at the ends), when I made the mistake of going in for a "trim", the week before Ozzfest. Long story short, it all went bye bye, and I had to start from scratch. So, it's month 10 now, and I'm almost where I was, with a few less problems, and a little more direction. Anyway, I don't really have a length photo, but I'll get one. Right now, I have these crappy ones. Oh well, how am I doin?
The pic on the bottom is the guy I want to be XD, Matt Barlow.
Another one, just cuz I have em.
Hey, nice firebird guitar and nice Maiden shirt. Now all you need is the long hair :)
You seem to be on the right direction =) 10 months is already a long way you've come, don't quit again. You know, even when you have damaged ends, that doesn't mean you can't fix the problem (unless the ends are split). There are a lot of things you can do to your hair to make it look and feel better =) Tough, you see, your hair seems to be in nice condition right now. Just remember you can always drop by and ask for help. I use to do that always lol The people on this forum are great, so I wish you a good stay and welcome yoy =) And gongratulations for the 10 months achievement =)
All is looking great for 10 months. Sorry you had to learn what can happen with "trims" the hard way. So many haircutters (for whatever reason) just don't seem to understand.
That's a great shot of Matt Barlow (former lead singer with Iced Earth). He had a fantastic head of beautiful hair. Unfortunately his hair is no more. In fact he's a bald as a cueball and a member of the Georgetown Police Department.
I hope this image comes through. If it doesn't, you can go to the website to see a recent picture of the bald Matt Barlow.

I'm getting new, actual "update" photos soon, probably today. Those are kind of old, like 3-4 months old.
Ah yes... the great Matt Barlow.. he never should have quit Iced Earth (to work for National Security I believe... ??!). He was the best singer IE has ever had (much better then Tim owens in my opinion).
Anyway man... you made a mistake, and hopefully you learned from it... just don't get trims, take care of your hair, and visit this board often for tips and feel free to ask any questions.
Keep it growing.
