Hooray! I made it through 12 months!
I'm actually 2 days short but I'm just posting now because I might not be able to on Tuesday.
So April 1st, 2007 I pretty much almost shaved my head.
And now it's been 12 months since that last hair cut with me reaching past what my 12 month goal was (my goal for the first 12 months was it to at least rick my top lip) which I can now actually put my hair in my mouth, which I can also do a half tail as well! :D
So now I will keep growing my hair and hopefully reach my second goal soon (full pony tail) as I can only tie the back and put the front behind my ears at the moment.
And so here are the pics! (ignore the funny faces :p)
The cut (April 1st, 2007):
After 12 months: (some of these recent pics are with oil in my hair hence the darker color - I actually have blonde hair :p)
And some pics with my hair dry and no oil:
Thanks for looking guys! :) Happy growing.
Hi Alan and congratulations on your first year of real growth!I also wish to welcome you to the mlhh as I assume this is your first post to the board.If not welcome anyway.LOL.Most important is how fast you hair has grown in such a short time and looks fantastic too.Sounds like you have your goals set which is cool.Anyway keep it up and don't get discouraged by the awkward stage or any negative comments from shorthairs around you.Post often:)Mark
Thanks for the welcome! I'm not a new member but I havent posted too much though.
For me I've had my hair long before so nobody has ever really bothered me about it except for when I was younger - but that's a whole different story on its own - just bad age bad time lol.
Hey ! It's a good progress ! You're not the same !
Pretty blond waves also

Hi Alan
I know your in the midst of the awkward stage but it looks really
good at that length. Do keep growing however don't stop there.
Kevin
Yeah I'm at that stage - however honestly It's my best stage so far because It's long enough to put behind the ears... Before this stage was the worst.
Thanks for the comments :)
Hi Alan,
Congratulations on reaching a full year of growth, and your hair is doing very well, and looks great! I don't know if you have a final goal in mind, but I hope you grow it a lot longer!
Keep it growing,
David
At the moment I just wanna keep growing it long.
My main goal is to get it back to the length I had it when I was in middle school (it was a bit past mid back length all around) and then from there keep growing. I think that might take me about 2 more years.
Alan, Looks great man! Keep it up!
peace, jonalbear
Alan;
You have done a lot in one year ! Lookin' Good !
Keep it up and Thanks for Sharing

I can well see how happy you must be at your 12 month landmark. Your hair is coming along just great and is looking actually quite long already. Keep up the good work and in another 12 months you will never believe the difference between now and then.
Thats great growth Alan, in my opinion long hair suits you much better than short.
Keep it growing and flowing!!

Hey Alan, great update! Your hair is coming along very well and it suits you nicely. Congrats on your milestone!
Cheers,
Max
I'm at almost a year myself, and it looks like we have very similar wavy going on! Looks great, keep it up and best of luck!
-Austin
Yeah I've been keeping up with your progress too - similar hair :)
It's interesting though - When I was younger my hair was dead straight.
Nowadays as I've seen in the past it starts of straight when short - gets a bit wavy in the middle stages and when it's long its almost dead straight again. Weird.
Good luck with the growth. :D
Your hair is also very similar to my hair, and at my previous attempt about 10 years ago I've got straight hair to.
You've made some great progress and we'll see how your (and my) hair will turn out.
keep it up, looks great!
The natural blonde looks so cool!
And its starting to look really long, especially in the half-tail photo.
I hope my hair is that long after 12 months' progress :)
Shawn
Congrats on the one year mark, Alan. You're gonna be very pleased with the next year's progress, no doubt. Keep it growing. =)
-James
Thanks I can't wait heh.
My next small goal is to have it chin length by My brithday (June 4th) - It could happen since apparently my hair grows alot faster in summer.
Thanks for all the comments guys!
You will awesome with long hair. You look better allready.

Looks great man! I'm about a year ahead of you. Wait until next year and it will be twice as long.
