So my year update has gone, and now we're moving up into the higher numbers. Anyway, here's my 13th month update since I last got my hair cut.
(Had to do that again, since Grrrr (more or less 'r's') made it popular again.
Anyway, about how much longer do you think I have in the awkward phase. I know it's more of a state of mind, but about how much longer do you think I have, in your opinion?
Anyway, keep it growing! :)
Congratulations! Great progress!
Thanks! It means a lot, man. Keep it growing, as well! :)
Hey Brandon, you have good length for a mere 13 months. Your hair is already touching your shoulders.
Grrrrr uses 5 'r's' in his handle.
Due to the waves you have maybe 6 more months until your hair is long enough for gravity to straighten it out a bit.
Scott
Thanks, Absalom! So about 6 more months? I can't wait. Anyway, thanks for giving me an estimate, and thanks for the continuous support! :)
Brandon ...
You got all that hair in 13 months!!! I'm so envious. (Even if its one of the 7 deadly sins...) I probably won't have that at 18 months! You're doing great ... keep up the good work and don't ever think about cutting it..
Be Blessed.. (your hair already is apparently.. lol)
Tristan
Thanks. Wow, I'm being envied. :P But I really think that your hair grows faster than you seem to think it does. I'm pretty sure you'll have that much hair a lot sooner than you think. Keep up the excellent work, by the way. Your hair looks fantastic! :)
Hi Brandon,
Your hair looks superb, it is thick, wavy, and healthy. Your hair grows VERY quickly, and you have come a LONG ways for only 13 months! Keep growing it for sure.
All the best,
David
Thanks, DavidN! It's always great to get comments from such an awesome person as yourself. Keep it growing, as well! :)
Hi Brandon,
Your hair is much longer now I would say your almost out of the awkward stage maybe 6 more months. I always felt if you can get it in a decent pony tail your past the awkward stage but in reality maybe 6 months past that.
After a year of getting it in a pony I began small trims to even things up and get rid of frizz. I did 1 inch trimms every 4 months so their was still growth to see.
Kevin
So about 6 months. huh? That still seems like such a long ways away, but in reality, it will probably fly by really quickly. I'm also thinking about getting small trims after I hit my 2 year mark, since my hair is quite frizzy normally, and just to keep things in order. Anyway, thanks for your great comments, and I can't wait until I finally leave the awkward stage! :)
Good lord, Brandon... I'm almost to 16 months and don't have nearly that much length. Awkward phase? Seems like you'll be out of it in 2 months or so at the rate your hair is growing. It certainly won't be much more than that, as your hair has to be growing at somewhere around 3/4 - 1 inch per month. At any rate, keep on doing whatever it is that makes your hair grow that fast, and take care. =)

Heh, thanks! I certainly hope it would be 2 months, but I think it might be longer than that, but I don't know. I need to keep up with how much it grows a month, but I'm lazy when it comes to things like that. :P Anyway, thanks for the awesome comments, and keep it growing yourself! Your hair looks great as well!
How long was it when you started? You are only a month away from me and your is way longer?
That was 3 weeks after my last haircut. It's my earliest pic, though. I never had my hair really short, so I have an advantage over those who started with really short cuts. But don't worry about how fast your hair grows. Just enjoy the journey and all the new experiences it will bring. Before you know it, you'll have reached your designated length. Good luck to both of us~ :)
Awesome man! It just keeps getting better and better:)
Simon
Thanks, Simon! I can't wait until your hair gets back to its former glory! Keep it growing, as well! It looks great! :)
Brandon those are terrific pictures. Your hair looks very cool right now, very healthy.
For me the most awkward stage was when my hair was long enough that it got in my eyes but too short to put behind my ears. You are way beyond that stage. I would think you were not in the awkward stage, does anything about the hair still seem awkward to you? To me you are well on your way.
Looks great Brandon!
Thanks! The only part that really seems to bother me is the length in the front compared to the back. I think it will look better once my bangs hit shoulder length (in reality, they're almost there, but the waves cause them to seem shorter). Besides that, it looks and feels great. Anyway, thanks for the positive comments!
Hey man, I don't think we've had the chance to exchange greetings yet, but I have to say your hair looks great. The waves are totally cool, and they'll likely give your hair a unique look down the road.
Peace,
Ryan
Hey, thanks! Nice to meet you, Ryan. From your avatar shot, you look like you're on the way to having some great hair. Love the curls and waves and such. Anyway, see you around, and thanks! Keep it growing! :)
Whoa!!! That is outstanding progress for such little time. I would say at the rate you're going, You should definitely be out of the awkward phase by the end of this year. Nice update, Brandon. Keep it growing.
Thanks! This year? Wow, I hope so at least. Thanks again, and you keep it growing as well! :)
Simply fantastic! Your hair get's better with every update.
Mouse
Thanks, Mouse! So does your hair! Keep it growing! :)
Hi Brandon,
You're hair's doing very well. I reckon that you are not far off the end of the awkward stage. Give it another 6 months to a year and you will be on your way to some epic long hair.
Keep it going and nice one.
Neil
Thanks! Man, I can't wait until 6-12 months from now. I can't wait to see how I look. Anyway, thanks for your great comments. It means a lot!
Wow that looks so long for 13 months! (My curls hide the length and so when straight-haired people grow out I am always shocked to see how seemingly fast it grows).
It looks really good, Brandon.
Cheers!
Shawn (Mr.Crow)
Thanks! Your hair looks great, though. I would love to have curly hair, seeing as it looks really awesome. I haven't seen a longhair with curly hair that looks bad. Anyway, keep those curly locks growing!
To me, you look like you are mostly out of the awkward stage. You are starting to reach past your shoulders in the back, the front will catch up soon enough. You are blessed, like most young people, with nice, thick hair; which appears to be quite healthy.
Carol
Thanks! I really can't wait until my front hairs catch up with the rest. Thanks again for the great comments! ^_^
Excellent progress Brandon! You are right, awkward is a state of mind. My awkward is defined as the period of time that people intensely try to convince you that you need to cut your hair. That varies from family to family, but if you're steadfast, those comments disappear as they realize that you're resolved in having longhair. That is the end of the awkward stage. But in the traditional meaning, you're almost there! 2 months, maybe!
Keep on growin'
Bruce
Oh God, I hope so! 2 months would be excellent with impatient me. As far as people who are trying to convince me to get a haircut, it's almost disappeared. Probably think I'm a lost cause. :P Anyway, thanks for the awesome comments!
