Hey Scott,
Thanks for the compliment, bro.
Like they say on the Nike commercials, "Just do it.". I know that there are pressures for guys to to get their hair cut short. Just the other day a guy told me that I would be taken more seriously if I got my hair cut. He even offered to drive me to the barbara shop. I graciously declined. All of your long haired bros and I are here to support you, dude. Just grow it. It is so worth resisting any presure to cut your hair.
Don't grow up, grow down.
Raymond
Your hair looks great Raymond and have to say you chose an awesome backdrop to show it off!I know I've said this in the past but I like you hair when loose:)Hopefully your journey isn't anywhere near complete as there is lots more hair to be grown my friend!Cheers.

Hey Mark,
Thanks for the compliment; it's much appreciated. I had someone whom I know recently suggest that if I were to cut my hair I might be taken more seriously. He even offered to drive me to a barbar shop. I graciously declined. I said that my hair was part of my identity. He asked me if my hair was who I was. I said that it was not who I am but a part of who I am.
I hope to grow my hair to terminal length.
Raymond
Fantastic update and great background! Your hair looks great! don't listen to naysayers, it looks good and i understand how it's part of your identity. I was very depressed for a whole year after cutting my hair about 3-4 years ago. Keep it growing!
cheers, Isaac
Hey Issac,
Thanks for the compliment, bro. You're right; if someone is going to like me or not like me because of the length of my hair then I don't need their respect or approval.
I look forward to connecting with you when I come to New York.
BTW, I like your pics. Your hair looks awesome, bro.
Raymond
Hair is looking great Raymond! From the guy who took the pics :-)
Hey Dave O,
Thanks for the compliment and thanks for taking my pics. I hope that next month I will be out of the awkward stage. I look forward to next months picture session.
Raymond
Looking better and better, Raymond. You've picked some interesting places for your updates.
