I thought this would be a fun idea:to post short haired pics of ourselves,just to see how far we've come in our journey to longhairedom!!!the pic above was taken summer '05,I got one last haircut after that,in August '05,so my hair was a little bit shorter than that when I started...:P
Hey man.
You seriously look better with long hair. Your face looks a bit different in that pic. I guess longer hair really does make a huge difference. Cool smile by the way. :-)
i agree with you lol!!!my face is a little different,don't know why...I do look better with long hair!!too bad most of the women nowadays would disagree with you and I.to hell with them, I guess :P
Check out Arnld's speech towards the end of "Conan the Barbarian" :)
And you serioulsy not only look better (of course IMO) with longer hair, but you look much younger too!
(although that being said you don't look old in your short hiared pic, just in comparison to how u look now)
Most importantly though, longhair seems to suit your personality as well and it makes u happy, so a double bonus :)
Here is what I looked like with short hair. (I was a lot younger then.)
Absalom
I always liked this picture of you.
Perhpas one day you might consider a return to the exclusivity of the moustache alone?
Nice one :)
I like the beard too much to shave it off. It gives me a lot of protection from cold which can partially paralyze my facial muscles. Also, shaving is extremely unpleasant for me, it leaves my skin raw.
Absalom
Whoa, do YOU look different with short hair lol!!! You've come a looonnng ways!
I have included a group picture of myself, taken 4 years ago, with a few of my co-workers, many of you have already seen this one.
David
OK, here's my comparision photos. (I had grown my quite hair long prior to 2002 but made a very supid mistake and cut it short.)
Karsten
Stunning progress. Looks like two completely DIFFERENT people!
Here's one from October of '03
You look like a different person with long hair. Long hair suits you very well.
WHOA, do YOU ever look different with short hair, what a great job you have done in accomplishing your current length! It even seems that you have succeeded in lowering your frontal hairline, in your current pictures, your hairline seems in better shape than it was in your shorthair picture, CONGRATULATIONS!
David
Well I really had to go back far to find any pic of myself with shortish hair as I've had long hair for so many years so how about this one from 1980!LOL.Mark
Not nearly as much history to cover here, but this was me back in May 2006 with a 1/2 inch buzz. I didn't normally have it at this length, but it was a nice convenience for a camping trip.

Tin whistle!!! Cool to see that. I play tin whistles/Irish flutes/uilleann bagpipes in a few Celtic/Norse folk fusion bands. Glad to see other players!
Hence the reference to Norse mythology in your user-name.
I actually haven't been playing much as of late (too busy). Unfortunately I make mostly noise, but occasionally some music emerges. ;-) As you well know, if you're not gentle with the whistle it just squeeks like mad!
Mouse
Great to see another tin whistle affecionado out there, Mouse!
Thanks for sharing.

hrer is what I looked like in
march 2002 before starting to grow hair and beard
The first pic is of me when i was on my way to Crete, Greece when i was about to finish 9th grade with my class, that time i dyed my hair Jet black, but i didn't start my longhair journey that year, i just took this pic because i couldn't find any other pic of me with shorter hair, although i think i've had a buzzcut when i was even younger if i remeber correctly.
Here's one from before- taken in February 2004 (I started growing my hair in October 2004.)
And here's a couple from the last month-
I hardly recognize myself in the first, hehe.
Whoa, dude, you look awesome with long hair!
What he said.
Dang... a definite improvement, if I may say so. =)
The second looks freakin awesome
The difference is nothing short of astounding. Long hair compliments you perfectly!
Woah! That is fantastic, longhair is THE only look for you.
You are right on the money, you really transformed oneself over time. By the way, what is your goal? i hope you are going for the waist or below. You have the texture,and length to carry full term. good luck. I guess over time you lose ones innocence and now to the rebellious years ahead.
Before:
After growing beard and hair:
quite a defernce,you look much better with
the beard and long hair
Wow... the difference is dramatic. Before you look like a bully... now you look so... mesmerizing. Its one of those things that made me wish I was a woman... (but i am not... best I can do is being gay)
Great pics, you know longhair seems to look better on everybody!!
Thanks!
And true, I've rarely seen someone where I think they would look better with short hair. That goes for both guys and girls, really.
sorry for the huge picture and blurriness:P
This is off my security badge just before I stopped have my hair cut.....a major milestone was when the guard told me I need to update my photo ! YEAH!

Hopefully I don't look so much like a psychopath anymore ;)

From 2002:
*shudder*
OH MY!!!!! I see what you mean! I knew you had a buzzcut in the past but I didn't realize you meant BALD! What a tranformation to the length you have it now!
That photo makes me laugh whenever I see it on your site. I'm not exactly sure why. =)
Needless to say, there's no doubt you're better off now.
....ummmm, errr, Oh!...Okay...
NICE TEETH !
HA! Thanks for having the nerve to share that !
WWT
This photo was taken in 1990 so I look a bit older now. [grin]
Bill
hey Bill,while you do look much better now with the long hair
and bigger beard you still looked nice and hugable back then
You should see my picture at the same location; I was a bit younger also (circa 1963)! Since it was summer Dad let me grow my hair all the way out to a flattop back then. I was about to enter the 4th grade.
Quite a difference for a little over 8 months. I've lost a lot of weight and my hair is a few shades lighter.
This was taken May 13, 2006, the day after getting it cut. If anyone is into presidential politics, you may recognize the certain 2008 candidate on my right, who just happens to be my run-of-the-mill moonbat congressman from Colorado (no, I definitely do not endorse him):
This photo was taken just a few days ago:
Yep... that's about it. =)
Well I never really had short hair since I was about 13 years old, this is about as short as it got.
Taken about 3 years ago.
Later,
Chris
My daughter took this for me today.
Wow, Mr. Normal to Mr. Cool.
Thanks Dave, but to tell ya the truth... I have never been normal..... LOL
Grrr... I really need to get that scanner. I have a picture of myself that I took with a disposable film camera in the mid 90s. I'm standing on the Brooklyn Bridge. The WTC is in the background. A different world on so many levels. As soon as I get the scanner I'll have to post it.
Spring 2005, stuck in the haircut cycle. You know, "Take a little off, leave the back longer"
Keep it growin'
Bruce
Cute dogs...but I think their hair is almost as long if not longer than your's in that picture. ;-)
Mouse
Hi Bruce,
It's just struck me how much you look like Andy Warhol in your avatar pic! (that's not meant to be an insult or anything - just an observation)
Laurence
Back in September 2003.
Not a very clear pic, but you get the idea.
And now, on my 2nd time, I'll be hitting the 3 year mark next month :-)
you've come a long way man...congrats!!I'm really looking forward to your update!! :)
The photo below is from around 2000.
