Hey guys,sorry for not posting for sometime,I happen to have just arrived from my beach vacations,and I'm already getting set up for school,which starts next week >.<.Anyways,as you can see,I'm already getting some really annoying tangles,and I'm hoping to be able to tame them the same way I did back then when my hair was longer,by tying it all back into a ponytail when my hair is almost dry after washing it.I wish you the best in your hair journeys.Peace :).
Just a few suggestions about those tangles:
1. Make sure when washing that you use plenty of Conditioner.
2. When hair is nearly dry or when completely dry "Finder-Comb" gently first so that the fingers finally go through the hair with ease.
3. Follow up with a wide toothed comb.
4. Then to a more narrow toothed comb or Boars brush.
Hope this will help. If you are noticing the snags just at the ends you may have some split-ends which can be delt with with ease and eliminate the problem.
Your hair is presently looking great!
Best of luck to you.
ps: Just puting the hair as-is in a Ponytail will not eliminate tangles. These should be dealt with first before all is put in a Ponytail.
Oops...........not "Finder-Comb," who ever heard of that? Should have read "Finger-Comb."
Lol,I got it,my english might be crappy,but I still have some of the fluency I was introduced to while living in the U.S,so I am kinda able to find errors in texts and just correct them and keep reading normally :/.
The tips you cited are actually in my hair-care routine,and they have not solved the split-ends problem just yet,so I'll just give a shot to the tail-after-shower thing and see if it works.Thanks for the tips though,and I'll see if I can buy a boar bristle brush here,but it is kinda hard cause Brazil doesn't deal much with these specific hair products,lol.
Hey, it's looking great, Rafael. Nice to see you back on the board. Any luck on figuring out the military issue? Best of luck, and keep it growing, buddy. =)

Actually,I realized that there are so many people enlisting to the army nowadays because of free food and stuff that I have a high chance of being exempted from my duty,and If I ever come to have to cut my hair,I'll just do a mohawk,lol.BTW,your hair looks terrific,and personally I think you look way better with mid-length hair.Cya round.
Cool, your hair is coming along. Soon, you will have nice long hair. It is true that you are going through the awkward phase, but once your hair is long enough, it will settle down but stay away from scissors.

Thanks,Regardless,and my plan is to grow it as long as possible before I'm forced to cut it either due to army reasons or if the college veterans prank me and shave my head(they do it every year to the freshmen,it is sort of a cult).Anyways,your hair is looking great,keep posting your updates.Peace.
Your hair is coming along good, Rafael. Just imagine where your hair will be in another 9 months! Cool Dimmu Borgir t-shirt; I only like their first two albums though (For All Tid 1994 and Stormblast 1996). Keep it growing, man.

Thanks man,and I plan to keep growing it until I'm obligated to cut it.Have you heard Dimmu Borgir's Progenies of the Great Apocalypse,Serpentine Offering and The Sacrilagious Scorn?peace.
Yes, I have. I've seen them live and met the band back in 2007. I prefer their Black Metal days (1993-1996) though. But good to know you listen to them! cya.
Holy smokes,I wish I had seen them live,the vocalist has such a awesome,brutal and unique voice;too bad they've never come to Brazil >.<.
Looks great Rafael, the beach weather and water didn't hurt the shine any. Nice shine too.
Hope all goes well for you in school!
Thanks,my hair actually got a little bit lighter due to sunlight,didn't hurt though(thank god).I'm actually happy to be starting school again,cause my days were already getting boring,as I don't have anything to do and all my friends are either travelling or just busy enough to ignore me,lol.I must say short hair fits you very nicely,though I liked the long-hair look better.Peace :).
Hey Rafael,
Cool update! You're getting some really good length now. It looks very healthy and well cared for. I wish you the best with school starting soon, etc.
Keep it growing,
Joshua
Thanks,man,I hope you're doing well on your hair journey too,remember to stay away from trims,they don't help until your hair is at least shoulder length!I had sufficient time to give a quick view on your website,and I see you enjoy LOTR,it happens to be my favorite movie,I have the extended edition trilogy,I've read The Hobbit and I'm starting to read the almost 2000 pages LOTR,golden paged trilogy.My favorite character is Frodo(lol).
