Ladies and gentlemen! As of November 19th 2006 I, Xaviar craig have achieved my initial hair length goal! It may not seem like much to some of you but the last 17 months have seemed like forever and the trials and static I got from growing my hair out along the way have only made it seem longer. But that is all behind me now... BEHOLD! THE PICTURES OF IT!
Front:
Side:
Back:
literatly 98% of my hair fits in that ponytail, A very small ammount of hair actually reaches the band but not inside, I think within a month or so it will.
It feels great and I love it. Oddly enough when within the last week almost all static I got about my hair died out and its like people just accept it now!
I would like to thank EVERYONE here. Because if it werent for the inspiration and motivation I got from this message board and everyone here, I would have NEVER made it this far. Thank you and I hope everyone else here reaches their goal at one point or another. A million thanks to all of ya!
Congratulations bro! Way proud of you! The ponytail looks sweet, and it really suits you. Do you plan on letting it get longer?
Thank you Thank you!
I think I am going to let it grow in maybe an inch or or more. I would ALL my hair to fit in a pony tail alittle loosely. This is not to say that my hair is tightly in the ponytail, but if anything touches my head it useally pulls a few hairs out of the band holding them in the tail.
After all my hair fits in the ponytail nicely I might get the hair in the back of my head trimmed abit. Depending on how it looks I will go from there.
I honestly havent put much thought of where I am gonna go from here. It seemed like such a battle to get where I am now that I never really thought this day would ever come. That being said I never made plans of what to do once this day came!
Hi
Craig
Congratulations on achieving your goal length I sure hope its the first goal length to you have posted some great pictures of your ponytail is really suits you to , Thanks for sharing by the way !
Just one Question is the look in your pictures the main look you mainly wear your hair in a ponytail or do you wear it down more just sort of wondered as there no pictures with your hair down or Loose !

Thanks for commenting ^_^
I mainly wear it in a ponytail, I havent worn it down yet... Useally its up all the time except when I am in the shower and when I sleep. It just seems too impractical to wear it down, not that I have tryed it, but it just seems like it would be...
Your Welcome anytime
oh cool your a ponytail fan thats good to by the way you can always post a picture with it down if you want to that way you will get other peoples oppinions on it !
Axel
Very nice. I remember when i was at that stage, used 2 pins to hold the to sides up because they kept falling behind my hair. Keep up the good work.
Looks really great, congratulations! Any chance you could post a picture with your hair down? Anyway, keep it growing.
David
Glad you made it! Looks great, and the hair itself of the best type to work with. And of the static? That always seems to cease once you can wear all in a tail. Bravo!
Hi Xavier,
congratulations, you look phantastic with this pony tail! It'll look even better as it gets even longer - anything from now on will be a breeze - as long as you avoid destructive "trims" - I'd think twice and then decide against it. Once everything fits into a LOW pony tail, and, if you still want to "even it up", then it is a bit safer - but check carefully whom you will trust. Many stylists will cut off more than one inch (i.e. 2.5 cm) or more, even if you request one centimeter to be taken off.
Glad you got there - and, looking forward to your 2008 updates!
