Well, I missed it and didn't realize it until now, but Saturday was the 7 month mark for me since my last haircut, so here's a couple new pics.
My hair measures at about 5 1/2 inches. I've estimated I'm growing at about 1/2-inch per month. I wish I was blessed with the 1-inch per month growth rate that some lucky people seem to have. One thing that's nice is that I'm gradually finding it easier to tuck my hair behind my ears whenever I wear my hat, so slowly but surely the "hair wings" are disappearing. :)
I'm clearly in uncharted territory now, as I've never gone this long without a haircut (as I said in my last, 6 month update), so I'm both excited and nervous at the same time as to what to expect in the new few months ahead as I approach the 1-year mark. :)
And here's a picture from last month:
Hi Michael,
Your hair looks great now, and can only look better in the months (and hopefully years) ahead, as you continue your long hair journey. You have thick, healthy hair with just the right amount of wave to give it good texture that I hope you consider growing for a long time to come, and your growth rate appears good to me. The beard is looking ace as well!
Keep everything growing,
David
Looks great! The colour is really dark and I like it. Don't worry about the growth rate, still better than less than 1/2, besides your hair seems wavy and that's why it might appear shorter. You have thickness, I think that's better than fast hair growth!
It's coming along nicely and you have good thick healthy hair with a bit of body to it. If you don't mind wearing hats that's a plus in dealing with the awkward stage. Good luck and keep growing.

You might be in "uncharted territory" now, but it is apparent that you are going to have dynamite great long hair in the end. Keep it growin.'
Looks great Michael. If you're already seeing the little things getting better then the awkward stage will be a breeze!
Keep on growin'

Hi Michael, your hair is growing pretty fast to me , im at six months, but have started from a skinhead. The condition of your hair looks good and im glad at least someone's wings have calmed down a bit .lol. Keep up the journey fella, all the best Jonny H.

Your hair looks excellent for only 7 months. Quite Frankly, I don't remember my hair being that long at 7 months.
Im glad you are entering uncharted territory now as that can only mean one thing: You have made PROGRESS. *Applaudes*!
Hang in there and keep it growing man because it sure is looking awesome and will only look "AWESOME-ER" ha! with given time
all the best

Hey Michael thats a great months worth of growth, its come on leaps and bounds since the last update and the sides are definately growing down nicely. Keep it growing, you'll love it more and more the longer it gets.
Wow, your hair has actually grown quite a bit since last month, and seems alot thicker too. Looks good so far, keep it growing! :D
Definite improvement over last month. The one year mark is closer than ever!

Holy, Moly! The difference between last month and this month is incredible! you sure do seem to be growing your hair quickly. It is really thickly-textured (or appears to be) and will probably look really regal flowing over the shoulders.
Keep on keepin' on!

Be ye not anxious. Remember than anxiety is excitement running to fast, so slow it down to the comfort zone and enjoy the journey. You look a bit ike Gollan, and you can follow in his footsteps and you will be happy in the end.
Thanks for all the kind words and comments, everybody. Looking forward to next month's update. :)
