It's going to be an interesting weekend. Have a family reunion and about 100 guests attending; the last time they have seen me I was sporting hair as in the bottom photo; as you can see now it has changed slightly.
I will be carrying a digital recorder with me to document all the comments I receive; next week I will post some of the best ones.
This could get to be fun! I can hear it now; Mr. Conservative goes wacko!

I think its cool that you decided to grow out your hair - it suits you and makes you look more interesting!
Looks awesome man. Grats, well done, and good luck.
There is definitely a big change between then and now. You are bound to get some looks and comments. Whatever you do, don't let any negative comments that may come your way get you down. Some people are just dead set against men having long hair, and many of those people seem to be rather vocal about it. The hair is looking great, by the way. It seems to grow at a rather fast rate, and it looks very healthy and well-kept. From one Louisianan long(ish)hair to another, cheers =)
Looks great George! Have fun at your reunion. If you have any longhaired liberals in your family they might see this as open season on converting you :)

Great Plan George ! I will be on Pins & Needles waiting for the
(**censored**, I asume..) comments HA!
WWT
And of course "He must be trying to relive his youth", and "this ain't the 70's!" I get that from time to time. Just smile when they say these things, and they'll know your happy with the way things are.

I would be flabbergasted if anyone was to insinuate that you look worse in the top photo. It looks so much better!
The bottom picture looks worse.
I can't fathom how anyone would argue otherwise.
Maybe that's just our viewpoint.
Wow, Mr Normal, to Mr Cool.
That just proves what long hair can do to a man, you made the right decision to grow it out, and you look at least ten years younger - seriously!
Any negative comments you receieve will probably be from balding, conservative males who secretly would love to do what you have done.
Congratulations on mking the right decision!!
Best regards, Dave
