  Hi all,
  Seems like recent shots are abounding on the board right now. Thought I'd throw in my two cents worth, so here's my recent shot! 5 and 1/2 years of growth without trims. Apparently,also without comb or brush for this photo.
  peace, jonalbear

    Jonalbear, your mane always totally blows me out of the water whenever you share a pic of it -- it's hands-down AMAZING to look at!!! When I think back to your mullet days (I had one of those, too, BTW, back in the late '80s... although the back of my hair was never quite as long as yours got to be), it's hard to believe that at one time you kept it so short in front and on top like that. Now that we all get to see your long hair in all it's fullest glory, I can't imagine seeing that mullet return to your head ever again (if it did, I'd cry a RIVER OF TEARS - lol)!!

    And now for a question to ask you:
    Do you think you've reached terminal length now? (Or, is you hair still continuing to grow a little?)

    I've been asking myself that question for a couple of years now.... Every time i THINK I've reached terminal length, lo & behold, a month or more later I notice another bit of growth that's taken place (although this growth seems to be much sssllo-o-o-o-o-o-owwwwerrr than it used to be)...

    Thanks for the nice update!

      Ken,
      No tears please. No reason for them as the mullet is long gone forever.(5 and 1/2 years as I stated.) Like you, just when I think my hair is terminal length I experience spurts of growth although much slower, mainly in the back.
      Will have to post a back shot soon!

    Hi Jonalbear,

    It is always great to get an update from you! Your hair is so thick, and those curls are awesome. I still think you havea ways to go before you reach terminal length. (My own hair keeps surprising me as well)

    Cheers, and keep it growing,

    Looking at your hair, your hair looks similar to mine in terns of waviness and length, although a bit straighter. I like looking at how your hair ends in a curl, and you should take a close-up picture of your curls.

    Your going for that rugged untamed look, I often do that so as to scare the children. Although even when I brush it and keep it neat I still scare the children.

    Looks great and your a testament to not trimming.
