I was looking through some old material and came across this pic of me from October '05.
Contrast it to this pic taken in October last year.
The scary thing is how much the rest of me has grown too! Time I went to the gym.
I'll try to get a current pic with my mane loose.
yummy:)
Your hair is looking very nice. I really like the texture and the color. Is it all at one length now? Keep it growing my friend!
Thanks very much.
It's all different lengths. Some parts never seem to grow much longer than 10-12" ie the front, which is just long enough to catch in a tail or braid, whereas the hair at the back is waist length. I don't mind though. I just think of it as natural layering.
Wow, looks nice! The ends look good too.
Thank you. I think its condition is down to my haircare regime. I wash it twice a week normally and use loads of conditioner and I've been using jojoba oil for quite some time now, probably about two years, given that I'm on my third bottle! Following some advice from Urban Cowboy a few weeks ago, I started to apply the oil to my hair while it was still wet and I'd say it's in even better condition now.
Your hair looks absolutely stunning in that year old shot.In fact the
difference between the '05 and '08 pics is tremendous.I'd say long hair
suits you very well in both those lengths.However I would still vote
for the longer mane:)As for the rest of you it's hard to tell if you really
did get bigger as the earlier pic was taken at a greater distance.Regardless
you look fantastic anyway my friend.Cheer.

Thanks, Mark,
I prefer the longer hair too. I just couldn't get over how much it had grown. I actually had to check the date the first picture was taken to be sure I hadn't been growing it for a year longer and had mixed up my dates. Saying that though, I'd say there's about 18 inches' difference in length between the two pics, so that's about right for three years' growth.
Oh wow Viking, your hair is pretty
Thanks, Tommie
Yes, Amazing indeed! Congrats Viking.
Bruce
Thanks, Bruce.
Hi Viking,
What great progress from 2005 to 2008, and your hair appears thick and in good condition.. I will be looking forward to your latest photo.
Keep it growing,
David
Thanks, David.
I'm always surprised by the volume when it's loose, because I've got pretty fine hair which packs down to next to nothing in a braid.
Hi there,
Thanks for posting the comparison between 05 and 08 and that's certainly an change in suvh a short time. You hair is certainly full of body and certain lots of future growing potential. Do keep it growing and look forward to to recent picture.
Cheers,
John.B
Thanks, John.
I'll see if I can get a pic taken in the next few days to post a comparison. I don't think it's grown six inches in the last year though, so I may be approaching terminal. I don't mind if that's the case though. My original plan was to grow it as long as possible and then cut it back to waist length, so I'm happy with it regardless. Saying that, I wouldn't complain if I could grow it to knee length.
Sounds similar to what I want to do :) Anyway, you really have wonderful hair, and the color is to die for !
Vivien
Thanks, Vivien,
I wish I could take credit for that, but I'm just working with what nature gave me.
Yes your hair has grown a lot, looking forward to your new update!
I looked at both your pictures and it showed that you have came a long way. However, four years is plenty of time to gain length, plus you had somewhat of a head start as your hair was close to shoulder length in the 2005 photo.

What a difference time makes. Great length now. Good job.
