this one I just liked the mood of, not sure why!
As always, your hair is looking great, Chris. The fourth pic is my favorite. Hope you're doing well, and of course, it's good to know you're not a vampire. ;)
-James
Thanks James for the kind words. Your updates are rockin along pretty well too! I hope all is going well for you at college and you have some time for fun :) Take care!
Chris, An awesome photo. Reflective mood amidst the tree shadows.
Willow?
peace, jonalbear
Thanks for the kind words John. Demonstrating my vast ignorance and ability not to pay attention to my neighborhood, the tree is not far from my house but I don't know what kind it is, but it's not a willow anyway. Now I will have to look more carefully. I am bad about plants and they are mostly just either tree or pine tree to me lol. I am a little better with animals :)
Really Chris! These are really, really great pictures of a really fantastic update. The reality of the really beautiful day in your really nice neighborhood really makes my heart sing! Really! I hope you have a really lovely Sunday afternoon.
Keep on growin'...really long!
Your friend in reality,
Bruce (really)
I really don't believe you :)
Thanks ya crazy loon!
Hi Mr. Goge,
Good pictures all and glad to see you making all these updates. You have great straight hair to work with and all of it still on your head to boot. Hope you are feeling better all along.
Bragi
Why thank you for the kind compliments Mr. Brown!
I am very glad I did not take after my father who by my age of 44 was mostly bald except the very sides. I don't know if its true that the baldness comes from the mother's side but it sure did in my case. My mother's father had a full head of white hair when he died at 99. I hope to take after him in more than hair :)
Chris, you know its so great to see you in these updates as it says so much about the positive mood that hopefully you are in right now, which is amazing considering your health problems - true spirit and inner strength!
As for the hair, well it certainly is in beautiful condition, and the length as always astounds me - it just grows so fast.
Take it easy ~ Dave
Hey Dave!
Thank you so much mate for your kind words on hair and health! This place just rocks for the friendship we all have here and I am not exaggerating when I say that this place has been a much bigger help and support for me than the hair. You guys have all made a big difference in my getting through this illness. I have learned much this last few weeks and I am getting better in the "two steps forward one step back" method. It is bumpy progress but now things seem much less hopeless than I thought they might be. The update I am waiting for is when I can tell you guys I have really lost all the symptoms and my health is normal again!
The update I am waiting for is when I can tell you guys I have really lost all the symptoms and my health is normal again!
- and we are looking forward to that enormously, keep going the way you are and it won't be long, I believe in positive mental attitude to beat almost anything and you seem to have plenty at the moment.
Hi Chris,
As always, your updates are right up there with the best on the entire hyperboard, and these outdoor photos are really the icing on the cake to show your hair at its very best. Your hair is perfect, what a blessing to be blessed with straight and thick hair, and of course, you have the fastest growing hair on the entire hyperboard. Hopefully, you will hang in there and keep growing it, to waist length and beyond, as I suspect you have a very long terminal lenght.
Hopefully, things are better with you these days. You are always in my thoughts, and I know that someday, a cure for your condition will be found. Just hang in there!
Take care,
David
Hey David thanks for the most kind words, you are a true gentleman :) Right now I don't know what I plan to do with my hair. I am ambivalent about my hair length now, sometimes I think it is way too long now and too much trouble and other times that maybe it should be a bit longer. Either way I cannot see ever going beyond waist length, even if I could do it. Seems that growing it that long would be an extraoridnary amount of work (and I complain now as it is lol) plus it doesn't fit any image of what I can see myself doing. So it probably won't happen. Of course I wasn't sure I would grow it this long so who knows.
As for my condition, it is not quite like an untreatable illness. It is candida and it is treatable somewhat anyway. Problem is it takes absolute severely strict dieting and mountains of medicine (which I have been doing lately) to start to feel better. It is a result of these two things above that I started feeling better enough to post some pictures. Hence the onslaught this weekend! So the good thing is that I do not have to sit around waiting for a cure, the hard part is that cure is mostly up to me (the diet part) so if I screw it up its my fault :(
Anyway thanks again for the encouragement! Hope you had a terrific Nova Scotian weekend :)
Hey Chris
Wonderful out-door shots of killer great long hair. Vampire? No way. How about spectacular "Long Hair Hero!" :-)
Take care-
Justin~
Hey Justin thanks for the adulation :) I had been wanting to take a nice update pic for some time but I hadn't felt that energetic. But lately getting a handle on this health stuff and having some improvement, so you guys get the onslaught of pictures :)
My hair isn't that spectacular compared to some of these fantastic thick, shiny, wavy manes here, but I bet I am probably typical :)
Wow! :-O
2 years and 4 months? That's just amazing growth rate!
Great looking hair too, man! Good job.
It isn't that amazing actually Stas, when I started I had a typical men's haircut with hair just above the top of my ear and bangs about eyebrow length, not a buzzcut.
Thanks Stas!
I still think you have quite an amazing growth rate compared to others :)
Hey Chris, great pics! Just so happens that folks think of me as a vampire also...always in the dark when inside. Funny. Looking super at just 2 yrs and 4 months...way to go.
Salud Chris.
Max
LOL thanks Count Max :) I appreciate the compliments. Keep on growing that mane Max :)
Your hair looks great Chris, I really like the tucked look on you. I can't wait till mine is as long as yours.
-animosity
Thanks man I appreciate the kind words. Keep on growing that mane it will look so awesome with the color and texture of hair you have!
Heey Chris! A great update as always, your hair is getting really long now, is your goal to grow it to waist length or longer?
Take care!
Simon
Thanks for the compliment Simon. As I told David below I am not sure what I am doing. I have even considered cutting it shorter (gasp). But until I am more certain I will let it be for now.
Hello !
That really a great update.
Your hair look so healthy and well maintened, you have so straight and thick hair...
i would like the same hair !
and i really like the white hair on the hairline it's looking cool.
Cya
Such irony! I always thought you had such cool hair cause it has great waves to it and body, it doesn't just hang there like mine. I am quite willing to trade ;)
Thanks for the compliments Angel, your mane is so cool keep it growing!
Hi Chris what great pics you posted and I think its a first for outdoor ones at that!The outdoor sun makes your already great hair look even better:) Well we are very fortunate here on the east coast to be enjoying an extended summer kind of which is great for doing those outdoor updates. Also I like that cool shirt your wearing as its very upbeat with its bright colours. Always though just remember to smile:)))))))
I particularly like the LHC style back shot and I can just imagine what you are thinking there as that might be..."I want that yellow FJ Cruiser and I want it now!!"LOL Sorry just my weird sense of humor taking over a bit there.LOL. Anyway you look fantastic Chris and keep it up as it can only get better.Mark
Hey Mark thanks for the reply. I have really been enjoying the spectacular weather we have had recently. Not to hot or cold it is perfect now, if only the whole year were like this!
I do like the color and brightness of outdoor updates much better than drab indoor ones.
Anyway Mark I can smile and the proof is in the thread above this one under Smile lol
Take care my friend.
PS I have no idea what I was thinking at the time lol
OK now that I have proved I am not a vampire my next trick is to prove I am not a zombie! For that I will silence all you doubters who think I lack a smile :) In truth though out of all the myriad photos my lady took of me yesterday only one had a smile in it and it was this one! So maybe I am still mostly zombie...
Stay tuned for my next update wherein I prove I am not a werewolf...wait with all that hair that might pose a problem :)
I like this one. what a nice smile. Well, you must have been having a pretty good day, if you were able to smile in spite of all the Candida nitemares you are going through. Isn't this Maryland weather just the strangest? Hit 90 today, average is about 71, here in Northern Frederick County. MY AC has been busy, plus I have some sort of bug, I'm nauseated, and can't seem to eat. I replied to your earlier thread further down, and just want to repeat that my email box is open, if you want to just vent, or whatever.
Carol
Sorry to hear you are under the weather Carol, that is the pits when you already have more than enough to deal with. I do hope you get better soon and will be able to enjoy the nice Maryland weather we are having.
I tried to send an email to you from here in MLHH, hope you got it! So I already filled that box lol.
Please take care and get well Carol, my thoughts are with you :)
Getting over this stupid bug, stomache is still a little iffy, though. I checked my email, even my junk box, but did not hear from you, so I'll send you a test message. Let me know if you get it. The weather actually got a little cooler out today, it's about time.
Carol
Yup I recieved some bad news a fews days ago and your picture fair cheered me up as your so so scary !
Axel
I hope your bad news has not happened mate but if you have confirmed it I am terribly sorry. IM me if you want to, will talk later
Even a man who is pure in heart
and says his prayers by night
may become a wolf when the Wolfbane blooms
and the autumn moon is bright.
Shame on me Chris I believe I need a course in remedial horror flicks! I had to look up this reference:
Now I will have to rent the film "THe Wolf Man" which is what this is from for anybody else who didn't know.
I bow before the Master of Horror :)
Oh man, it's great to see a smile! : )
Thanks Rob, I guess they are a bit too rare. But it is so hard to get a decent looking smile in a picture, from me anyway!
Hey Chris, your hair is getting really long, and it is just lovely. Hopefully you are planning on growing it to at least waist length. It could reach your waist by the 3 1/2 year mark, if you decide to grow it that long. You are certainly 2/3 of the way there now. Considering you are about 5'10" or maybe 5'11" tall that is insanely fast growth.
Long hair forever.
Scott
Scott your ability to guess heights is astounding as I am 5'10 1/2"
I don't know how far I am going to grow it right now so I am just going to let it grow awhile and not think about it too much.
Thank you so much for the compliments Scott you have been inspiring me since my first short hair picture about 2 years ago!
Hello Chris...
These are great photos.. I'm glad you posted them. Your hair looks great and I never thought you were a vampire ... well... maybe just a small one.. :)
All kidding aside ... its great your posting so frequently and the board is a better place because of you...
Take Care...
Tristan
Hey we can't all be big like you Tristan :) Some of us were born scrawny!
Thanks so much for the most kind words Tristan you are quite a gentleman and a terrific soul :) I am glad you found us as well we seem to attract a quality crowd here at MLHH!
Hi ChrisG!
Wonderful update. Nice, beautiful & healthy long hair.
Thank for sharing.
All the best Chris,
SamsoKera
Thanks so much for the compliments I really appreciate them :)
You liked it because... just, BECAUSE!
(And, I like it for the very same reason!!)
Nice pic, Chris!!
- Ken
Thanks Ken, my partner took this picture on Saturday along with the others here and a whole lot more but when she saw this one she didn't like it much and thought I wouldn't as well. She was surprised when I said I liked it so much. I am even considering asking Oren to make it my new avatar!
I like it also !! Cool shirt !
WWT
Thanks a lot Walter, hey I do have a picture with a smile down below too if you haven't seen it yet. Not just Mark but you as well have been one of those pushing for one :)
take care Walter!
Hi Chris, nice update mate, you kinda remind me of Damon Hill, racing driver in that photo.Hope you are feeling ok dude, all the best Jonny H.
Hey thanks for the kind words and encouragement Jonny I really appreciate them. I am doing somewhat better than before so I am now posting more frequently :)
Take care Jonny
Great update and awesome picture, Chris! I really like the mood of this picture. It has a sort of introspective mood. Anyhow, the hair is looking fantastic as always. Your hair has gotten quite long now. I wonder how long you're letting it grow? I remember you said once that you had passed your goal length. Have any new length in mind?
Thanks Chris, this was an odd picture but I just liked it and maybe even make it a new avatar! I have no idea how long I am growing it. I am content with the length it is now but have not had the inclination to worry about it right now. So I let it grow for now. When it gets to be to aggravating I will cut it back. I do not think I will let it get much longer. Of course right now I am not as into the hair thing but that may change.
Take care my friend :)
Based on this picture and you avatar, I'd say you have a fondness for the color blue. And you should, since it goes very well with your dark Irish features and you lovely mane. Keep it growing, and I hope your internal issues take a turn for the better.
Mouse
You are quite correct Mouse, some of my favorite colors are blue, purple and green. This shirt is a favorite cause it is such a riot of blue and yellow and green! Usually my choice for an update is a simple light color to contrast with the hair but I didn't know that I would be updating that day lol.
My lady had just had a haircut and some highlights added the day before and she wanted some pictures of her new look so we just both went wild with the camera!
Thanks for the kind words and the encouragement Mouse, you are always there with the humor and the support and that is more valuable to me right now than you might even guess :)
Thanks again and take care Mouse!
it's so nice to have more photos of my internet boyfriend to add to the collection. it'll make it easier to stalk you when i finally make it to your hometown. (or maybe i'm there already...)
my sick sense of humor is gonna get me banned one of these days.
love you!
nic
Now you've gone and blown our secret :)
Hope to catch you in chat when I have more than 1 minute to talk to you.. my bad!
We could never ban a sweetheart like you nic! Or maybe its just cause I get your crazy humor, then they have to ban both of us. LOL MLHH moderator banned, film at 11!
Your "internet boyfriend"? Saw your note about the braid further down. We need to plot on how to get a braid on him. I'm hoping that maybe when Chris and I meet up in the future (we are both Marylanders), I can convince him to let me braid his hair just one time. And take a few pictures for the hyperboard. If he really hates it, he'll never have to do it again. I just think the streaks of silver braided in those dark lots would look so hot. Help me convince him to try.
Carol
