Last march I decided to forgo my monthly hair trims and set out to return to the hair lengths I had in the late '60s and through the '70s, about mid back, though I may decide to go longer. Only have 3 months of growth but I did start with a longer than "normal" style. It is entering the "awkward' stage. bangs almost to the tip of my nose, sides covering the ears and the back just covering the collar. Exactly the length that violated the dress codes in my high school back in the late '60s I am now 59, and uIsee that gentlemen of all ages have embraced longer hair...Huzzah! I am happy to have found this site as it has helped steel my determination and has provided me with some timely tips. I promise to post piocs as soon as I have a recent one taken.
Hi Jason W,
I'm close in age to you (turning 57 next month), so I can totally relate to what you shared, above, -- and also, before I forget to say it: Welcome to MLHH!
To give you added encouragement to keep on growing, all I can say is that I am SO happy to have my own long hair back again. It feels kind of like "an old friend" is back in my life again -- only this time, I never want to let that friend go!
Looking forward to seeing your pics!!!
