Most of my hair is shoulder length. There are a few individual hairs near the front that are around two inches long. Most of them were caused by getting into the hinge in my glasses, and my not noticing this when I take my glasses off. So now I always make sure I open the hinges a bit before I take my glasses off. But the short hairs are really annoying, tickling my forehead. Oh well, there's probably nothing I can do about it except wait.
Hi Dude,
you're right, patience is needed. The individual hairs may be a bit easier to control if you use a conditioner, or, possibly, some kind of pommade, if you need to make them stay put on special occasions. When it gets windy, I personally control individual hairs by wearing a baseball cap.
Best wishes, and happy growth!
