Time does seem to fly by ONCE IT HAS PASSED BY, but when you are
going through the worst part of the Awkward Phase® time seems to crawl by at a snail's pace!
You went from extremely short to long in just 26 months. That's amazing!
Congratulations!
Did I miss something? Is the awkward phase a registered phrase? Tell me it's a joke... please?

Is THIS a joke?
Trans-for-ma-tion. ((Trans'far.ma'shan) n. 1.The act of transforming or the state of being transformed. 2.To change the form or appearance of. 3.

The Awkward Stage always changes the form or appearance of the individual who is going through a state of being transformed to achieve the look long hair brings to one which in no way resembles the individuals former short hair look.

What you have just read is NOT a joke. Please read slowly so as not to "miss something."
On my browser, Luckskind's reply has the text: Awkward Phase®
the emphasis being on the registered mark at the end of the word phase. Maybe not everyones browser shows it? That was what I was getting at! Little joke....I'll leave all typo's alone from now on since I'll no doubt continue to make them myself as I have in the past. Pobody's nerfect.
Sorry...

i can see the ® mark too
Hey really cool collage of pics there Ozzy! Quite a transformation from your before pic, your like a totally different guy. Definitely the long hair goes with the rockin image so much more though :) Congrats on 26 months progress and good luck on many more to come
heres another collage, from aug 04 till now, The Journey is far from over!
Hey Ozzy...love the Dec06 one with your hair loose. It really shows off your awesome growth.
What a great way to show your progress! I'm always impressed with creative photos. Impressive hair also!
Keep on growin'
Bruce
Great progress! Looks really good, compared to how I looked at the 26 month mark. I agree, once you get to this point it makes it all worth it.
Here's to another great 26 months! :)
What a fantasic difference that 26 months has made. The long hair suits you just great!
Ozzie, Ozzie, Ozzie:
Clearly long is better. How about one clear photograph about your wonderful accomplishment?

Hi Cal, Thanks for replying ,heres 1 clear pic for you, taken Last night, only difference now is im clean Shaven.
Hi Ozzy,
Awesome transformation! Really an original way to display the contrast between your buzz and a MUCH better look! Do you have a goal length? Keep it growing!
David
Hi David,
My goal was originally shoulder length, ive reached that as you can see, I Plan on taking each 6 months at a time and deciding from there really, Thanks for the reply.
Looks good there, collage guy. I like your collage on the other board also.
Cheers Big G! nice to see you on here too, I have a thing with making collages at the mo lol
Take care dude
You definitely suit your hair longer - well done on your great progress!
The hair is awesome (looks great with the tattoo) ... amazing growth progress. Long hair is the way to go for you - not that you weren't handsome with short hair - but the long hair enhances your look.
Keep it growing as it can only get longer and longer and better and better.
Karsten
Thanks for the Reply Karsten, Its appreciated, All the best
Merry Christmas to you too! Great hair and good to see you are still doing well. You keep it growing too. That is fast growth for 26 months. Quite a transformation.
See you later, Bragi
Hi Ozzy,
great decision of yours, and phantastic result! It's great you stuck it out, and it's great that you're offering encouragement to others!
I'm just thinking of the 12th step of the 12-step group "ex-short hairs anonymous": Carrying the enlightenment on to others ;-)
All the best, and, have a great Christmans!
