new thread
Hi guys and gals,
I am very sorry that I havenÂ’t posted in so long, I hope I can convince you that the guy you saw when I was active on the MLHH was somewhat closer to who I am then the person I have been these last few long months. The old me wouldnÂ’t just leave everyone hanging and wondering what happened. Used to be you couldnÂ’t keep me quiet! Let me explain some. As everyone on the board knows I have been fighting a very terrible illness for many years. One of the negative effects of this is a form of depression where I lose interest in many things I used to enjoy. I am thinking that it was because of that I lost interest in growing my hair last year.
Well for just about all of last year I was unable to work I was so sick. Near the very end of the year I hit on a combination of diet and medicines that at last allowed me to go back in to work. Not nearly as capable as I used to be nor as energetic nor enthusiastic but at least I wouldnÂ’t lose my job. The cost of this new diet and medicine regimen was a more severe form of depression, and I lost interest in just about everything for all these last months this year, including friends both online and otherwise.
I have often thought of all my longhaired friends and indeed have lurked some, not all that much but at random times and I did catch that two of my good MLHH friends, White Tail and Hairball had become moderators. I would catch some random days on the board but I just never felt quite up to posting or emailing any of my regular MLHH buddies. I pretty much dropped out of society for this year so far. I hated to be that way not talking to people and you all no doubt wondering just what the hell happened to me.
Just this week I am trying something new and I am hopeful it will help me some more than I have had lately. I am feeling somewhat better and I hope the progress continues. I wanted to post here so people wonÂ’t think I am some thoughtless ass who was only in it for the hair. I am afraid that people probably think I have forgotten them and that is so far from the truth.
I am far from where I want to be but every little bit of improvement is very welcome! I have started noticing longhairs again when I see them and part of me does enjoy a great mane. I donÂ’t know how I will feel about growing out my hair again in the serious way I had before but I have been letting the hair grow by default. No pressure on me to decide anything either way, so now I am just entering the beginning of the awkward phase again! The picture is about 2 weeks old and from a webcam image so not so great.
Anyway hopefully I will continue to be more social than I have been. Thanks everyone for helping out with a very difficult year last year I cannot overemphasize how much this place gave me some joy when I needed it.
Take care all!

Hey Chris, great to see you again!!! Great news that you are feeling somewhat better recently. So sorry that you have been depressed because of medications, etc. and of course I understand the reason you have not been around here much. Just the fact that you are doing better is all that matters and you are in my thoughts.
Sincerely
Max
Hey Max thanks for the kind words, I may not know what I am doing with my hair or pretty much anything right now but it is nice to feel a bit more talkative!
Good to see ya again :)
Hi Ghris ... Man its good to see you post here again:)Just so you know I have been thinking of you for the last few months and I even wanted to e mail you but silly me thought maybe you were beyond hanging with the longhairs since you gave into the dreaded shears.I really feel terrible even thinking that way but sometimes one gets the feeling that some former board users have moved on from that part of their lives.At the height of your activity here you were a true delight as your posts were so inspirational and chatting with you in "the room" was a lot of fun as well.
I have to say Chris I feel for all that you've gone through as I don't know how you do it.There is no way I can even imagine what the days were like for you when things got dicey.For such a nice guy you don't deserve any of it.All I can say is that I hope one day you can put all that behind you and be back to being the good 'ole Chris.
As for your pic I think that shaggy look is kind of cool:)Even James Raymond cut his hair back to that sort of length and it looks fantastic on him.Hey what ever you decide to do about regrowing your hair should be a personal decision and only do it if you really want it back.So Chris my friend thanks for posting and giving your old friends an update of where you are at in life.Believe me I do care!
Catch you later my friend and don't forget I still want someday to meet you.Keep the faith Chris:)
Mark
I knew I should have kept in contact with people but even though I felt bad about it there was just something in the way I was feeling that kept me from doing so. I loved my time here and really enjoyed my friends here. Sorry I gave you reason to doubt me but I know what you mean there are probably people who go on to a different life after they leave here so that is understandable. I was totally confused when I did cut my hair but knew it was the right thing to do at the time.
I figured I had nothing to lose, in fact I am eagerly awaiting the day that I look at old pictures of me with long hair and kick myself for ever cutting it LOL. That will be the best thing that could ever happen to me :)
I think I remember a post from James Raymond where he was thinking of cutting his hair, I never saw a picture of it shorter though, last picture I saw was an update earlier this month and it looked longer and fuller than ever, looked fantastic! Course it has been awhile my memory isn't so great LOL
Thanks for being a good friend Mark and email any time, I haven't joined the short hair clones :)
It's good to hear from you Chris; your hair looks great and I wish you all speed and good luck with your methods to get well. Take care my friend and drop in and give us an update whenever you feel up to it.
Thanks for the warm words Rob I had been meaning to post before this but I guess I wanted to know for sure what I was feeling regarding growing my hair out or not but I realize now that was a mistake. That might be awhile in coming, I don't expect a revelation concerning hair goals anytime soon but for now the hair will grow andbring on the awkward stage!
Hopefully I can start doing some postings and maybe catch you in the chat room sometime. It is still awkward being here when I am not sure of the hair but as I always said it's much more than hair here :)
Hi Chris,
I'm glad things are looking up for you, and it's good to hear from you and that you are doing well these days.
Remember, and this applies to all of us, that life is a work in progress. [grin] We're all always working on this project called "life", fine tuning it here and fine tuning it there. None of us ever reaches perfection, but hey, we're all trying!
Great to see you're still working with diligence on this "project" and that it is coming along nicely for you, and great that you've dropped in to say 'hi' to the gang here.
Wishing you the best with however you decide your life should go,
Bill
The new thing I am trying is a great amount of capsules of hydrochloric acid. Taking enough to hopefully harm the fungus candida I have also is very rough on my stomach. I don't want to give myself a new problem but I am hopeful.
As for the hair, who knows, I am leaving it grow for now and I am enjoying my non-decision freedom for awhile :)
Thanks Bill for the kind words and the encouragement, I hope all is going well for you as well.
It's good to hear from you, Chris. I was just talking about you the other day to Elizabeth. We visited the textile museum in DC with a group from LHC, and all those ladies had longer hair than me. I was surprised Elizabeth came, because she has moved to California, having married Bill D.
They are trying to organise another long hair meet in the DC area which is pencilled in for September 6th, but no location yet. I am sure they wouldn't mind (?) if some guys from MLHH were to gatecrash and even out the balance of the sexes a little, and I know that I would be happy if you could come, whatever your hair length, Chris. I doubt if Elizabeth would be likely to make another trip back East that soon, though.
Hi elektros! Thanks for the welcome, too long away and all that LOL
I was at one longhair meet with the LHC that Elizabeth invited me too and I probably had a bit longer hair than I have now. I think Elizabeth really is a queen over there and must have pull!
That was where I met one guy who had the longest hair I had ever seen. Anke length or maybe more, cant remember. He seemed to rule the roost there as a hair god extraordinaire!
Elizabeth does travel a lot across the country so you never know whats too far too soon with her LOL
Take care, hope to see you again sometime. Renfest is coming up again!
Hey, that's a good point. Maybe it would be a good idea to organise a day at the Renfest.
I am glad you are still around. I am actually fairly new to the board, and I started posting earlier this year. It is not fun being sick, and I hope you return to normal health.
Regardless
Thanks man, it hasn't and isn't easy now but I will take any improvement I can get. I have lurked occassionally so now some new people are familiar to me, I have enjoyed the posts of yours I have seen being the sporadic kind of guy I am :)
On top of everything else, depression always makes everything worse.
The fact that even though you were very ill you still thought about
your friends here speaks volumes about the kind of person you are.
Hope that this "something new" you are trying works for you. It would be nice if you could get a break from the tortures you
have been experiencing.
Best wishes to you, Chris
Well the whole experience at its worst was quite bizarre, it was kind of like part of myself could see the terrible "choices" I was making and the devastating consequences of the choices but I wasn't able to make the bad symptoms go away and then this year knew I was acting in a manner most unlike my normal loquacious self but then depression really makes me antisocial.
Thanks so much for the good wishes I shall certainly redeem them :) I need all the luck I can get!
The new thing I am trying is a great amount of capsules of hyrochloric acid. Taking enough to hopefully harm the fungus candida I have also is very rough on my stomach. I don't want to give myself a new problem but I am hopeful.
Hey Chris, Nice to know you are still around. Have battled somewhat with depression myself so know where you are coming from. Please know that you have friends here on the MLHHb and am looking forward to more posts from you in the future.
Always enjoy conversing in the chat room as well.
peace, jonalbear
Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate them. I have missed the lively discussions here at the MLHH, I really enjoyed being here and I will see how the posting goes. I am not sure growing my hair by default is a valid MLHH stance LOL
I'll chance it.. see ya around!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome back, Chris. I hope the new treatments will result in a total recovery. It is good to see you have an interest in growing your hair again. May it grow back better than before.
Scott
Hi Scott, great to talk to you again. Thanks for the warm welcome and sorry for skipping out for so long.
The new thing I am trying is a great amount of capsules of hydrochloric acid (something called Betaine HCl). Taking enough to hopefully harm the fungus candida I have also is very rough on my stomach. I don't want to give myself a new problem but I am hopeful.
I was not having any real luck with just antifungals, no matter how many I took they barely held the candida back even when I was on the most strict diet I have ever been on.
So I am hoping that this will correct the imbalance I have and that the acidophilus will live up to their name while the fungus goes back to meekly hiding in a corner like a good little symbiont should :)
Take care Scott I hope you are enjoying the warm weather and nice bike rides!
Hi Chris,
Whay an honor and a great treat to hear from you!!
As I look at it, life is like a road trip: sometimes you zoom along in air-conditioned luxury along a smooth and multi-laned super-highway; sometimes you're barely crawling along on some rough & bumpy backroad, breathing in the sweltering dusty air with the broken windows stuck rolled down; and sometimes you just have to stop and take a long rest from it all at the nearest sleazy, cheap motel.... Well, maybe it doesn't have to be THAT sleazy (lol)!!
In any case, so glad you stopped in to say hello to us at our mutually favorite longhaired "motel!"
I don't post here much nowadays, either. I miss hanging out here like I used to, though, --- and I most definitely miss our moderating days that we shared together. You were the best!!!
Depression is a tough thing to deal with. I go through it myself at times, although mine are probably defined as more like occasional "situational" depressions, --- although it did become serious enough once, right around the time of my infamous Y2K haircut, to warrant me getting professional help through therapy at that time.
I'm so glad you posted today. You are sorely missed! I could care less how long your hair is or isn't. The vast majority of my closest friends are short-haired, anyway, --- including a lot of lesbians (lol)!! It's just really good to see you, my friend!
Take Care,
Ken
Why thank you Ken for your grand welcome and for your hilarious (and true) imagery and metaphor :)
I do hope you and your partner are enjoying the summer and hope your job is going well. That alone can take away time from hanging here.
I am letting my hair grow for now, no pressure as to goals or anything like that. I was surprised that I still had a User Directory entry I felt sure by now I would have kicked the digital bucket! :)
Take care Ken!
Hi Chris,
We all have a hard time sometimes and dont worry one bit about not posting. I am just glad you feel some better now and are regaining you life. I wish you the best and hope to see you more here.
Salute!
Matt B.
Hi Matt, thanks for the good wishes I will redeem them tomorrow :)
I hope all is going well with your studies and, well everything! If I hang around smart people I keep hoping some of it will rub off on me LOL
take care Matt and I do hope to again make a nuisance of myself here!
Hey Chris! great to hear from you buddy. Looking good my man, nice to see that hair edging ever downward ;-)
I like others here have often wondered how you were doing, and now we know. Keep positve, it seems that not thinking too much and putting pressure on yourself works the best for you.
Looking forward to you hanging out if you feel like it,
kind regards, Dave
Hey O Great Nutti One, a million thanks for the kind words my friend :)
I was hoping to post so much sooner than I did but things were stagnant with me and I wasnt getting any better or worse. But this week feeling a bit more social, I can certainly admire a great head of hair and great company while I work out what I want.
Take care Dave!
Chris!
Good to hear from you! I have thought about you often.
- Oren
Hi Oren
Good to hear from you too, I hope all is well with you. Don't know if you posted any pictures newer than the one on your website but those are spectacular enough Oren. Incredible and your hair color really rocks!
Thanks for the kind words, sorry if I worried anyone, I am usually better than that.
Take care Oren
Hi Chris,
What a pleasure to see you again, and I have been thinking (and worrying about you) a lot lately. I am glad that you have found something that works for you, and that you will be blessed with much better health in the days ahead. You always have been, and always will be, one of the most liked and respected guys on the hyperboard, and I hope you will be up to posting more often. It is great to know that you are growing your hair again as well!
Take care,
David
Hey David
Thanks for the warmest words,you are ever the gentlemen!
You are too kind, sorry to have worried anyone. I have hopes for making some progress but the medicine I am taking is very harsh and for brief periods makes me feel awful. I will try to post when I can and hopefully that will be more now.
During my random lurking here I thought I remember seeing that you finally got to retire and that you joined the prestigious Flowing Hair Club for Scientists ***CONGRATULATIONS ON BOTH***
Now you need to join the Flowing Hair Club for Golfers LOL
See you around David and thanks again for being such a great guy!
Hi Chris,
Thank you for your very kind words about my acceptance into the LFCCFS, and also about my retirement! I have to admit to being quite happy these days. I will be fairly close to your state in September when I make a small road trip as far as Pennsylvania, to spend about 10 days with a rather special person, who I will be seeing for the first time. Perhaps, next year, I will have a chance to meet up with you, when I make my longer road trip!
Take care,
David
So good to hear from you, Chris. You really are part of this great online family no matter what your posting rate. I'm sorry to hear things worsened for you mentally when you found a partial solution to the physical problems. Keep going, keep searching for solutions, and know that you've got a LOT of people still thinking of you here.
And good call on the hair. Just do whatever feels like the right thing.
Mouse
Thanks so much Mouse I really appreciate the kind words, everybody here has been so helpful during the worst time I had last year when I was posting here. It actually has been much easier this year in most ways, I have learned more about my illness and I can control it better. But I always wanted more than just surviving at work. My social life just ended last few months, well even more than before.
I am hoping I keep improving and hope I can become more of a regular but for now who knows?
Take care Mouse, maybe sometime I will drop by the chat room I havent done that in ages and it was fun!
Hello Chris, IÂ’m so glad that you feel betterÂ… IÂ’ve been a reader for several months before getting the courage to participate, so I followed your crisis and I fully understand how you felt. I spent lot of time hospitalizing my parents.
It is very well known that most if not all medications have what is politely described as “side effects”. However the might reach the extent of what could be a more severe suffering of another kind. (unfortunately a must go treatment)
Now that you are aware of the cause, youÂ’ll be in full control again.
Just think of “a few of your favorite things”…….
Your hair looked always nice, and IÂ’m sure it will always beÂ…
Now youÂ’ll have the pleasant feeling of growth again, mind you that you donÂ’t have an awkward stageÂ… every stage of yours seems to be an independent targetÂ…
Hoping to see you ongoing positively, with hair brushing the shoulders heavily next time.
Ramzi
Hi Ramzi!
I spent about 2 weeks getting the measure of this place before I joined in Sept 2005 I think. It is odd to think that people you don't know might be lurking and following your "story".
I lurked on and off this year so I couldnt really follow any story much I was just looking for major events, who's leaving or what LOL
I am very sorry to hear about the difficulty of hospitalizing your parents. Both of mine are in their eighties and still able to do everything they need to. What you had to do was unthinkably hard to me and I have been spared so far only by luck.
My latest treatment isnt so much a side effect, its a supplement of a strong acid and it does what its supposed to, burns a bit and makes me nauseous but I am thinking that is the good effect of the stuff killing the candida I have.
Well it is nice meeting you Ramzi, hope to talk more sometime.
Take care
Wasn't that a BeeGee's song??
Yeah Chris....it is soooo good to see you on the board again...and please, no need for any apologies; We all know you have had quite a battle on your hands.
I absolutely love the "new look"...still very much a long hair, (new colour???), great looking glasses and sans facial hair.
The whole package makes you look youthful and robust !!
Thanks for Sharing and please post when you can.....you have been missed.
Walter
I didn't know you knew any songs but Scott Joplin's LOL
Thanks Walter for the swift digital kick in the butt I needed to post here, your email really made my day. It is SO nice to be checked on :) You couldn't have picked a better time.
I am just hoping that I keep feeling this way or better.
The new "colour" (are you British LOL) you refer to is courtesy of my old webcam which I rarely use but it had the most recent picture of me and I didn't want to do a real picture and dig out my real camera :)
It changes the color of light more than the camera you are used to seeing pics from.
Thanks again Walter you are a very good friend :)
Have fun on Troll Patrol!
Hi Chris,
Good to hear from you and I know it's a been a bit of a roller coaster ride for you. It's good to see you posting again and after all you have to be a peace with yourself. Great to hear you are letting you hair grow out again.
But as you know it's not all about longhair as you've said this community has been here for you.
Cheers,
John.B
Hey thanks John I really appreciate the kind words, boy a roller coaster is certainly the perfect metaphor for my life. I think I am in the slowly climbing uphill part, can't wait for the fun on the other side :)
You are so right about being at peace with yourself, that has been my guide for a long time now and my goal. Seems so simple a goal doesn't it but many don't even look for it and those of us who do don't always find it easily.
Thanks for being a big hearted guy who doesn't mince words LOL, you are definitely a valuable regular here and often provide a much needed laugh!
Take care John, I hope things are going well for you and your photography business.
Hi Chris,
It was great to hear from you. I have been wondering how you have been doing. I'm glad to hear that at least there has been some improvement for you lately.
I've been quiet on the board myself the last few months. I still lurk but have found real life to be capturing my attention like never before lately. I think a lot of us go through times of being more quiet so please don't feel bad about your silence.
Best regards,
Jason
Hi Jason,
Good to see there is more to life and just MLHH and same here as I've got a great metal festival to go to next week.
Cheers,
John.B
Have a great time John!
Hi Jason and thank you so much for your kindness, I really appreciate it. I am glad that you have found other things to capure your spirit, the internet won't go anywhere when your not using it LOL
I sort of am beginning to feel a bit like that myself, not the internet in particular but some of my old interests are slightly more resurfacing, I hope the trend continues. The depression can really drain life of its life, no better way to put it I suppose.
I hope that things are going well for you.
I love your posts no matter how frequent or rare they are.
Take care Jason
Hey Chris! We all missed you. I know how difficult illnesses can be. I hope you continue improving. Good to hear from you.
TLH
Thanks I really appreciate the kind words, I am still working on me. What really ticks me off is that I have been seeing a specialist doctor who is the only one in my large metropolitan area who even treats what I have. But the thing is he has never been helpful, he can write prescriptions which is great but every improvement I have made since I started with him January 2007 was one I found from trial and error. Some expert..sigh
Take care and be well.
Hi Chris,
Glad to hear from you. Thanks for letting us know about your journey. I can relate to some degree and know how depression can make one lose interest in life. It sounds like you are on the path to feeling better. I hope your new meds help. Sometimes a day or a week or a year can be overwhelming but you are hanging in there. Everyday is a triumph of survival. Thanks for getting in touch. You have friends and support here in bunches. I've been away from the board for months, feeling flat and inert, but the hair still grows.
I just saw Carrie Fisher's one woman show, 'Wishful Drinking.' I didn't realize that, besides her family issues, she fought bipolar disorder. Her strength and humor gave her as much support as drugs and therapy. You are strong or you wouldn't be moving ahead.
I send you a virtual hug
Don
You have a good point Don, about every day being a triumph of survival, at my worst I had the very same idea. I would sometimes feel like I was doing nothing and just sick but then I wondered what other people would do in my desperate situation. Surviving is much better than the alternative and I am sure I realized that somewhere in me because here I am!
I am sorry you do understand depression but in some ways it helps to talk to someone who does know what you mean.
I really appreciate this place as I have had nothing but support even when I probably go on way too long (even now) about depressing topics. But I suck at making stuff up and this was/is my life. I certainly would much rather be posting pictures of a more exciting life and maybe I will someday.
Regarding Carrie Fisher I never knew anything more about her than Princess Leia :) She sounds like an interesting person.
Take care Don and stay well.
Hey Chris
So wonderful to hear from you. Sorry beyond words for how your health has been and perhaps right now at long last things are due to go upwards for you in your life. I surely hope so. And speaking of costs of special foods.......I can relate to that one now that I am on insulin which saved me from the "Grim Reaper."
Like yourself, I am just about emailed-out after several years of so many having to be tackled. It is so wonderful to feel well again and suddenly have the energy of a 20 year old.
Believe it or not Chris, if you were a high school kid in this town right now with the way your hair looks, you would be IN! (This length seems to be seen now just about everywhere and many now sporting ponytails.) Such a far cry from 3 years ago. Looks as if the "buzz cut" is buzzing-off. LOL :-)
My best to you Chris and with hopes that your disease WILL be demolished now quicker than you ever could imagine and that you can enjoy life to its fullest.
Your friend,
Justin~
Thank you so much Justin, you are always the finest of gentleman!
Wow,diabetes! Is that what has given you all the problems you have had or did it just fix some of them. Not that any relief is a bad thing :) That surprised me but I am glad you finally have the energy to go with your face cause you still look like a thirtysomething guy to me!
The thought of giving myself insulin shots would be very hard but amazing what the right incentive can make you get used to. I never would have believe I survived everything I did.
As for the hair I make no goals or claims of growing it out or anything at this point. If my hair wants to grow when I am not looking who am I to stop it :)
Thanks again for being a super sensational friend Justin, your words have helped me survive the impossible.
Take care and I do hope to post a bit more than the these last few months, committed longhair or not. LOL
Hey Chris. It is really good to hear from you. I've often wondered how you were doing. I hope that your spirits are starting to lift and that things will be better for you in the second half of '08. Medicines can be a tricky thing as they surely can help, but the side effects are sometimes lousy. Keep reminding yourself of all the good things in your life and try to surround yourself with positive people.
On the hair side of life, I would hardly say that you are going through the awkward stage. Your hair looks really cool the way you have it now. Not everyone needs waist length hair (don't tell the others on this board that I said that) to look good.
Best of Luck
Del
Hi del, thanks so much for the kind words. Right now I am feeling better and hope it continues.
As for hair I think I must use the term differently than the official way. I am not really sure what it means to many here LOL, but for me it refers to the hair hanging in my eyes, when it stays back behind my ears than its not so awkward. I should look the term up in our FAQ or links.
Take care Del
Chris,
It is nice to see you post here again. :-) I myself have been very guilty of not posting and not staying in touch with friends either. Work has me very busy and very worn down, that I just don't feel like socializing on the net like I used to. I check the board and email daily just to see how everyone is and to stay in the loop.
Sorry to hear your still having trouble. I think of you time to time, and I really should keep in touch with you more then I have. Your hair is looking great. I think long hair suits you, but I am biased. :-)
Hang in there good friend,
Mike
Hi Mike, sorry I haven't chatted with you in so long. It's bad when two friends both get that antisocial thing around the same time! I hope thing improve for you at work and you can get some help or something so you don't have to work so hard.
As for the hair my goal is not to worry about it for now, I know I cannot see clearly at this point regarding self image and moods until I am substantially better than now. Letting it grow while I work on that.
Hope we can get a bit more chatting in soon.
Take care excellent friend Mike :)
Hey Chris! It's great to hear from you, i haven't really been that active on this board either lately due to work and such, but hopefully i'll be able to post an update shortly:)
Your hair hair looks great too and it's cool that you are letting it grow out again.
Seeya around!=)
Hey there Simon thanks for the kind words. It is easy to get caught up in other things and its not the number of posts really, after a certain point a regular is a like family even if you don't see them often, just like real family :)
Hope all is well, I imagine you have beautiful weather now, nice and clear and cool.
Take care Simon catch you later!
...it's nice to hear from you Chris! I was just thinking of you the other day. I'm so happy to hear that you're feeling a bit better and I do pray that your health continues to improve.
Take care old friend,
Bruce
Thanks Bruce for your kind words, I am glad to be back. It is a bit awkward but I promised myself I wouldn't worry about how often I posted or that I need a definite overwhelming passion for hair. I think long hair is most excellent and I certainly enjoy the company of longhairs :) As for my own hair, I just will see what happens.
You take care as well my friend and I hope all is well with you!
Hi Brian thanks for the welcome dude!
Your hair is coming along nicely man, you have the coolest color, do your station buddies still rag on you about it? LOL
I did see the picture you posted in the firefighting gear and that was like something out of a movie!
Take care Brian and stay safe my friend
Keep up the fight, and its good to hear from you :)
Hey thanks a lot dude, I hope all is going well for you in your studies and otherwise.
Take care!
Welcome "back," Chris! Good to see you around again. Glad to hear things are going better, and I hope they continue to do so.
Wish you the best,
Joshua
Thanks a lot Joshua I appreciate the kind words. Hope all is well with you.
Take Care
Great to hear from you again,I'm glad you're OK.Good luck on your hair journey! :)
Thanks Rafael, every journey has its dead ends and switchbacks LOL
This one is rather bumpy :)
