new thread
Greetings to everyone..
What can I say?.... its been awhile. I'm glad to see some familiar faces.. and some new ones. My hair continues to lengthen and I am finally starting to feel like a long-hair..
Its been 2 years since I've had a cut.. and 16 months since a trim. I'm still enjoying the quest.
I'd like to throw a special thanks to a few who have inspired me over the years... just to name a few..
Jason, Ken (Urban Cowboy), DavidN (Dad), Matt(Bragi), ChrisH, Dave (nutti dave), Kevin C., Mouse, Bruce (Scooper), and James Raymond...
In no way is this list complete.. just a few that came to mind..
Hope to be around a bit more often than I have the past 6 months..
Peace..
Tristan
Welcome back, Tristan! I was just driving through your part of the state the other afternoon with Austin, and made a comment about you. Glad to see you still around. Your hair is looking awesome! Keep it growing, and stay well. =)

Hi James..
Thanks my friend.. I hope you're doing well yourself.. Are you still in CO??
Tristan
Unfortunately I'm not. I'm actually posting this from Des Moines, IA right now. Heading back to Indiana tomorrow...

Looking good, the gravity is getting some real grip on your hair there is almost nothing left of your curls.
Keep it growing!
Hi Vincent;
Thanks... gravity has done amazing things to my hair the past 6 months. Thanks for responding..

Hi Tristan,
It's great to see an update from you and an amazing change, your hair is coming along great and looking in wonderful condition. At the longer it gets it certainly suits you.
Well I know about memory and you get to my age and have "selective altzheimers"!
Cheers,
I can't quite remember!
Hi John...
LOL ... I know what you mean my friend.. its hard to remember everything.. Thanks so much for responding..
Take care..
Tristan

Hi Tristan,
It is a pleasure to hear from you, and thank you for saying that I am an inspiration! These are wonderful photos, and I cannot get over how much longer your hair is than your previous update, and a huge difference from your avatar. Your hair also seems to be getting a lot straighter as it lengthens. Keep up the great growing!
Take care,
David
Hi David..
Thanks so much for responding.. its true.. you are a great inspiration. I remember just like it was yesterday looking at all the great photos on this board thinking, "One day..." :)
One day is finally getting here... :)
As always ... its great to hear from you ..
Take care..
Tristan

Hi Patrick,
Thanks so much for responding.. Take care..
Tristan
And you certainly are looking like a longhair. Wow, your mane has come a long way! It looks absolutely lovely, though I seem to remember it being wavier...has it been straightened in these pictures? If so, I hope you let the fantastic waves and curles fly every so often.
And I'm touched that I've been an inspiration.
Doing any "plotting" lately? My list of people to surprise has shrunk dramatically in the past year. ;-)
Keep it growing!
Mouse
Hey Mouse,
Great to hear from you!
Yes .. alot of the curls have fallen away.. although, if I put some product in it and let it dry naturally they come back some, but not quite as much as before due to the gravity.
I saw my family earlier this month... they were so ambiguous about my hair I was kind of disappointed.. But wait til next year!!
Thanks for the inspiration..
Talk to you soon..
Tristan
Hi Tristan.Its great to see you post again as it has been some time since you did so.Well at least you didn't forget your old friends here on the board as its cool when guys stick around and become a real part of this community.Your hair has made great progress since you last updated and looks exceptionally healthy.I don't recall if you ever stated a goal but I do hope you are thinking longer:)It looks like a perfect day out in Colorado as someday I should get out there and really see what your state is like!Take care my friend and hope to see you soon.
Mark
Hey Mark,
Yea.. I hate its been so long! I need to be better about getting on here and posting more. This really is a great community.
I originally had said "2 years" for my goal. But, that was this week and I find the longer it gets the longer I want it.. kinda strange really. I'm at least going to 3 years.. But I know I want it evened out to all one length at some point.
You should visit Colorado... its an amazing state..
Take care Mark and thanks for all your support..
Tristan
What a sight for sore eyes! Welcome back Tritan, your hair looks fantastic! You sir, inspire me.
Bruce
Hi Bruce..
Thanks so much for responding.. Has your wife started liking your hair yet? Funny, my wife admitted a few weeks ago she "somewhat" likes it as long as its in a single high pony tail... Well, thats a start!!! Finally!
Take care and thanks again..
Tristan
