I just wanted to share with you guys that I reached the 5 year mark on my hair journey.
Overally, I'm very happy with how far I came, and I intend to grow my hair to my goal lenght, hoping that I will be able to. Clasic lenght should be a year and a half away or so.
Thank's for all the suport you gave so far. I'd just like to share a picture... not a good one... but I'm definitly looking for the years to come, hoping I can enjoy my hair for a very long time.

Hey Mike!
Well, if you were close and asked me that, I would probably say "why not?" =) I actually have had a friend asking me to take care of her daughter's hair, because she's wanting to grow it long again. =) Thak's for your comment!
Your hair looks absolutely great. Good job.
First off thanks John for getting the link posted.Joao you hair, as usual, is outstanding and a true inspiration to any real longhair.Who wouldn't want a mane like that to toss around.Yes,yes the very tossible mane,life is fabulous my friend:)

Hi Joao David,
I remember when you first posted here on MLHH. It was sometime in 2004, --- and your hair was still short at the time (and I was 4 years ahead of you in long hair growth, since it was in the year 2000 that I last had my hair cut short)...
I'm insanely jealous of your magnificent mane, Joao, --- and your growth rate is almost TWICE AS FAST as mine!!!
Ahhhh, to be young again (and have hair as thick and as full as yours is)!!! You are an inspration to ALL longhairs, Joao; but, especially encouraging to guys in your own age group... Another reason why I've said all along, "Grow it while you're young!" (when you have the full head of hair to do it totally awesome justice)!!!!!
Even if I was completely bald on top, I know I'd still be happier with my hair longer rather than short, regardless of whatever age I become. Having said that, though, it is really really cool to see your pics, --- because it's a shining example of what's possible for guys your age to accomplish (instead of the current tendency to sadly buzz so many of their manes all off)....
Onward & downward, men, --- to your butts & beyond!!!
- Ken in San Francisco (who may have reached terminal length by now; whereas you, Joao David, have only just begun!!!!)
Not to make you feel bad or anything Ken, but I got to that same length in about the same period of time (but I was in my mid to upper 20's back then) Unfortuneatly, I seem to have been stalemated right there ever since. And it's been 11.5 years since my last ....I can't bring myself to type it, it's that dreaded three letter "c" word. I've been enjoying that length for almost 7 years now. Wow, I can't believe it's been that long. But I've never looked back and have loved ever minute of this long hair journey.
Joao David, you have some fantastic hair and it is simular to mine in both color and type. However, I must admit that your hair is in better shape than mine (due to my own stupidity...lol) I wish you the best and ever longer hair.
Daniel
Wow your hair looks magnificent, it inspires me to grow my hair as long as yours!
Wow, your hair is wonderful João! A very nice update.
Hi João,
Thank you for sharing this truly outstanding update! Your hair is so thick, with fabulous waves, and is an inspiration to everyone!
Keep it growing,
David

5 years is such a long time to grow ones hair and its paid off very well to you my friend! you should give yourself a pat on the back for such long beautiful locks :)
I have to say your progress updates over the past five years have been some of the most inspiring on the board....and you have been blessed with incredible hair......love the ponytail...it deserves its own pony ! Ha!

Superb head of hair, João!
Definitely some of the thickest and healthiest hair I've seen.
