Hi all, I have been growing out the sides of my hair. Used to have the sides cut closely but wore a long tail. The barbershop I used to frequent blew up 2 1/2 years ago and I took that as an omen that I should let all of my hair just grow until it will grow no more. The tail is terminal at just about waist length and am anxious to to see the front catch up. I'm thinking about 3 1/2 to 4 years. peace, jonalbear
Looking good Jonalbear. It sounds like a higher power is sending you a message to never cut your hair again. The wings are gone as the hair at the sides is catching up with the rest.
I started with a rat tail about 1992. I never did cut it. I just let it slowly disappear as the hair around it grew in.
Long hair forever.
Absalom
Absalom. I have had my tail for about 14 years now and have like you just been letting the sides catch up. peace, jonalbear
Hi joanlbear,
You hair looks awesome! You are blessed with thick, healthy hair that is going to be truly impressive when all of it reaches your waist length goal. I dream of having waist length or longer hair but don't know if my genes will allow it, I have NO idea what my terminal length is.
Keep it growing,
David
How did the barbershop explode and WHAT caused it???!!!
And whatever it was, can it be BRED!
...have claimed responsibility in a letter addressed to the Washington Post!
Just kidding!
A good friend of mine managed to burn down his own house due to inflammable chemicals he was storing on his back porch for "experiments" (he never did say exactly what kind of experiments). The insurance company paid to re-build his house, byt sadly his wife ran away with the owner of the construction company. A cautionary tale, indeed.
Luckskind, Pressurized hair care chemicals were officially blamed. Faulty wiring was mentioned implying that flames were the catalyst. The Gods speak in mysterious ways! peace, jonalbear
...they never were any good.
Come to think of it, hair sprays and long hair do not mix.
First of all they are flammable! Secondly they literally glue hairs together. Can
you spell DISASTER?!
Anyway, that's the first time I ever heard of a barbershop blowing up.
And speaking of disasters: Just the other day I happened to use a clarifying shampoo and then
I couldn't even finger comb my hair!!
Thank God for conditioner: a ton of it finally eliminated the tangles and knots.
So all you dudes who are thinking of getting it all cut off...Think again!!! LOL

What a great sense of humor. Sure gave me a great chuckle for the day. Witty comments are always fun to read. Thanks!
Too bad about the shop however. When they rebuild, they will have to charge more for Haircuts as they will have to buy a NEW "Lawn Mower" for the heads that pop inti that place. LOL
Well, all I have to say about this is: whatever church or house of worship you've been going to, or whatever your approach to prayer and/or meditaion is... all our prayers have now been answered, --- we just need to see MORE of 'em blow up now (lol)!!
Take care, buddy, --- and your hair is lookin' GREAT!!!!

how did that happen? some hippie planted a bomb at the barbershop?
Tai fu. Actually I think it was Republicans by mistake. peace, jonalbear
Very nice quality hair you've got there Jonalbear.What is your ultimate goal for your hair? Can't say I feel bad about the barber shop but hopefully no one got hurt.Mark
Hairball, The ultimate goal for my hair is to take it to terminal length and keep it as healthy as possible. No signs of graying or thinning at almost 55 so guess I'm on the right track. No more cuts or trims and maybe the same with the beard when I retire in another 5 years.
No more barbers, no more scissors, no more razors!
peace. jonalbear
