Hello All
Marry Christmas and Happy New Year
This is my first Thread-post since I introduced myself a week or 2 ago.
I just have the one question.
It has been roughtly 9 months since my last haircut. My hair is already in the 8 to 9 inch range - thanks inpart to it still being "long for a guy" afterwords. And it is the longest its ever been so far.
But lately Ive been getting the strange feeling like my hair is short again - sometimes it even feels really short. And I was wondering: Is that normal? Does it only happen to first-time longhairs? Or does it happen to (some) people every time they grow their hair out?
Any answers would be greatly apreciated
Thank you
Interesting question there. Hmmmm... (Scratching my head while trying to remember back to my first time growing my hair out....)
The exact feelings as you describe above is not something that I happen to remember experiencing myself; however, having both long-haired and short-haired dreams at night were common during my first growing time.
One's first time in growing long, especially if you end up eventually committing to long hair for life, is a very special experience to look back on -- and a very DIFFERENT experience from growing one's hair back a 2nd time (which is what i did after a disastrous haircut back in Y2K).
Since the first time I grew my hair out was during the historical period of when dinosaurs still roaming around the Earth, I assume you'll be able to forgive me for not being able to remember that far back in time... (LOL) In any case: keep on growing that mane of yours, and before you know it, you will indeed eventually feel like a true-blue longhair...

Also...hanging out where there are longhairs around doesn't help. Long hair boards are bad for that feeling.
My guess is that I get this feeling mostly because I have a minimum-length goal not a maximum-length goal, and my hair still stops 2 or 3 inches above it. Oh well, atleast I'm almost there.
I've already comitted to being a longhair for life. Or atleast, once my hair grows passed my minimum-length goal, I plan on never letting it go back
Occasionally feel that way. When I look in the mirror my hair is a few inches short of my waist, and gets there when pulled straight. Still I feel sometimes, esp when wearing a shirt, that its very short, sometimes even that's its not there, even though its loose down my back. Dunno y, unless the shirt has something to do with it
