the image on the left is me now, and on the right is me 2 years ago (in the middle). I think perhaps I have quite a fast rate of growth looking at the photos? Any way i'm very happy with the progress and it is showing no signs of slowing down at all, goal length has now changed from waist length to terminal length lol. (I've had 2 or 3 trims in the first year, and then gave up on the idea since)
That is some insane length! You must be quite proud of that -- at least you should be. Most of us could only dream of that kind of mane and growth rate. It looks like you've taken very good care of it, as well. Nice work! =)

Thanks a lot, I am extremely proud of it :) Each day it grows I become more and more attached, I really hope i never have to cut it for any reason.
Hi James and others,
I'm a little skeptical here, remembering the incident that happened 2 or 3 weeks ago on this board. Just try clicking on "other posts" next to the name of the poster, this could be a person using someone else's name.
Of course, if it is real, it IS awesome growth rate, but again, I am skeptical.

Addressing your skepticism, I don't actually have an acount or anything, my name is Tom so I just post as Tom. It is quite possible that somebody else does just the same...
Is there anyway I could add a little reassurance?
Addressing the positive comments (as they are the ones that apply to myself) thanks a lot for your kind words. I've estimated my growth rate to be approximately 1 inch per month.
Hi Tom,
The hair in the pictures and the growth rate displayed are truly awesome, if it is your hair, I truly salute you! Its just that when I clicked on "other posts" next to your name, I got the name of another guy who has posted on the board, it is entirely possible you both have exactly the same URL address, and if that is the case, I apologize, and DO keep it growing in that case!
David
eeek your right, it looks like someone else has been posting using the same Name. When i click view other posts though, it shows the posts that are definitely mine, and labels them as such, and shows the posts that are only possibly mine and labels them as such. And they are both by same guy, who also happens to be called Tom. From now on I'll post using my full name, Tom Martin so as to avoid confusion, although I'll post this under Tom so as to avoid skepticism!
Once again,thankyou, and I do intend on carrying on growing!
Hi Tom, my apologies! Coincidences certainly do happen, and in this case, you do happen to have exactly the same address as another guy (Mister E. Bums, who has much shorter hair) who has posted on this board, hence my earlier skepticism. Anyway, that is awesome hair, a fantastic growth rate, and welcome!
All the best,
David
only the first 2 sets of numbers match, the others do not. They are not exactly the same. An analogy would be if you both lived in the same country and town, but lived on different streets.
Absalom
i wish i could say that hair/growth rate was mine
Now it can happen in REVERSE order, someone craving for such an gorgeous hair may be posting in the name of 'new' Tom :-P
Outstanding growth rate !
Cheers,Adalbert
Just awesome! It doesn't appear like it's thinning at the ends either. I bet you have a long way to go until you hit terminal.
Thanks a lot Jason. your hair looks just like mine did when it was that length, it's very thick like mine, so with any luck you should have no problems reaching (at least) the length I have :)
Your hair looks AMAZING and it looks like it grows REALLY REALLY fast. You really are an inspiration.
-Mihnea
Thanks Mihnea, to be called an inspiration is truly flattering. Good luck in achieving the length you'd like :)
Amazing hair. Impressive length and health.
Nice:)
Absolutely superb and gorgeous long hair. Thanks for sharing your success with all of us.
Why do you use the name "Tom" which is masculine....why not Tommie?
Because I am a masculine man! RoaaRRR!
did you think i was the girl in the photo? I'm the guy in the middle!
Hi again, Tom
I just wanted to extend a FULL welcome to you, and give you my FULL apology for my earlier skepticism. I was a little skeptical because of an incident we had a few weeks ago here on this board, and I have to say my poor computer skills caused me to be more skeptical than I should have, the similarity of the URL addresses caused me to go astray.
I also wanted to say that I am totally stunned at your growth rate and awesome hair, I do hope you keep it growing. I am really looking forward to seeing how long you can grow it! I do hope you join us, you will find a wonderful community of very supportive people hear. Please post more pictures when you can, I would love to see a closer up picture.
All the best, keep it growing,
David
