Hi everybody!
Took a few pictures here while enjoying finally seeing some sun here in the north a well, and thought of posting one to show my current progress, at around 5.5 months of growth... around a month or so for the beard :)
As for the hair, been experimenting a bit lately, and keep switching between slicking all back with tons of extra strong hold gel (this being on the 2nd day, looking much less "stiff"), or parting it on the left side, and leaving it all natural, bringing a more fluffy and wavy look.
Beard I am totally in love with, and will keep growing for a good while. It itches sometimes, food gets stuck in it, and so on and so on, but I LOVE IT! ;)
Hey Raul. It's a great pic! Your hair grows nicely, and the perspective of the pic shows it pretty well - the hair at the back gets naturally longer :)
Huh, your beard... I understand your favor to the beard so damn much! It makes you look somewhat noble. And it does suit you a lot.
I'd also love to see a sun of Norway some day :) Love the atmosphere of scandinavian world, and climate seems so much better than in Ukraine (from my point of view, of course) :) How do people react on long-haired men at your locale?
Here in Ukraine the sun's making it hot for a good month or so :)
Thanks for your update!
Serge.
Thanks for the kind comments, Serge!
Norway is indeed a great place to live in, with the highest quality of life in the world (for the 9th or 10th year in a row, I believe) and with a climate that for me, seems perfect. Rather cold and snowy winters, with milder and sunny summers... around 10c outside right now with the sun shinning, but we can get a few weeks of 30c as well during the summer :)
There are quite a lot of long haired men here, as well as men sporting longer beards, so it's compltely natural. I think it's always been like this, in a culture that stems from the ancient vikings, with their locks flowing in the wind :D
Thanks for the nice comments on my beard... I love it, and plan on growing it quite much longer, we shall see when I decide to stop. Definitely makes me look more my age- soon to be 30 :)
As for the hair in the back, it's definitely a bit mullet-ish, and it's curly since that's where most of my waves gather, but it's allright, I embrace it for what it is at the moment.. a proccess!
Looking super, Raul!

Thank you, oh wise, bearded one! ;)
Hi Raul,
This is a nice picture of you and your hair/beard! It is definitely coming along nicely! It's fun to experiment and see what happens. At first, I was using hair tonic to keep my hair down and neat. It seems like i don't really have to use the products since the is some weight to my hair. Nothing wrong with the fluffy wavy look! Your hair is going to look so awesome when it gets longer! The beard is also looking superb! You just have the total package my friend! As I said before, you are simply the coolest teacher I have ever known! Have a great Sunday bud!
Ted
Thanks for the kind words, as always, brother :)
Cool pic! Ra is chillaxin like ah villaxin!
;-p
Thanks Row! :)
Hey Raul
Looking really great and how nice to have the sun like that. We "should" be seeing more sun where I live but alas, for over a month now on and off we have had our skies smothered and obliterated by a bunch of poisons that are fogging the skies. The sun cannot get though this crap. I am assembling a video on it right now though there are already a ton of them on You Tube as it is with all kinds of theories. I'll have it up in another day I think. In the meantime keep enjoying that sun and growing out that hair! :-)

Hey Justin!
Sounds like an intersting phenomenon, would definitely like a link to that tubes video when you've posted it, even if it's not hair related! ;)
Thank you, and a gread day to you too, kind sir!
OK Raul, here it is and of course with something like this there abounds a ton of theories. One "theory" however cannot be dismisssed. "If" the Earth continues to be trashed by Mankind through his own stupidity, then he will extinct himeslf in the end. Only pure logic would dictate this.
Take care

Hi Justin - thank you for this video & topic:(albeit - not hair related) - 1stly: (may I say)=you are just as charming & charismatic as ever & you look terrific:(lean & healthy)=on-ya fer that !!! ... 2ndly: this is a subject I am passionate about: ( the Earth, Humanity & where it & we are going !??! - to Hell in a bucket, real fast !!!= I reckon !!! ) - I own a 40. acre farm & have been madly planting trees: (approx. 500 so far - at least = just call me 'Jonny-Apple-Seed' = my Mum does ... hehehe) ... I may post pics. of my farm & all the native animals on it - @ some stage in da future - however my posts here are mainly, if not all, hair related ... anyways - my feelings are this - we have 'jet-trails' in our skies too = but they are normal ... we are a vast country with 23 million people - it is like da USA in da 60's - ur country is of similar size but you have 310 million people - China has 1.7 billion - India has 1.4 billion = ( in a nut-shell ) we are breeding like rabbits & 'Mother Gaia' is groanin' BIG-TIME !!! - to round off quickly = we are due for EXTINCTION - if we follow our current path - God gave us choice & we are choosing - God created Planet Earth & the universe to evolve:( yes = I believe in evolution ) = but as you ( & I & a growing number of people are noticing ) - the 'system' is broke - but we are choosing ( en-mass ) our direction & therefore our destiny: ( Thoughts = Words = Actions = Habits = Character = Destiny. ) - anyways = you get my drift 1 = I'll sign off now = cause I cud go ALL day wif this topic ! cheers & thankz fer caring too about where we are headed kind regards CEM. :))
So to sum it all up you're growing trees and growing hair.
Keep up the good good work.
Hey "CEM!" :-)
Thank you for the kind words you have spoken. What actually brought this whole video to a head with myself was the "Strange Virus" people in my area were getting and indeed, it just almost killed me. (Some people it has.) 27 days of sheer hell despite 2 rounds of antibiotics. The Friday before last the Dr. wanted me in the Hospital right away. (I won't go however into any hospital ever again after my last experience.) I somehow have made it. Meanwhile, before, throughout and afterwards, these Jets continued to bomb our skies. Why do my dogs fir suddenly smell like chemicals despite being washed? What is that sticky stuff all over everything in the AM? What are we being sprayed with?
2ndly: this is a subject I am passionate about: ( the Earth, Humanity & where it & we are going !??! - to Hell in a bucket, real fast !!!= I reckon !!! ) - I own a 40. acre farm & have been madly planting trees: (approx. 500 so far - at least = just call me 'Jonny-Apple-Seed' = my Mum does ... hehehe) ... I may post pics. of my farm & all the native animals on it - @ some stage in da future
Oh, that would be great and if you ever do, I hope I stop by at the time you post this! :-)
we have 'jet-trails' in our skies too = but they are normal ... we are a vast country with 23 million people - it is like da USA in da 60's - ur country is of similar size but you have 310 million people - China has 1.7 billion - India has 1.4 billion = ( in a nut-shell ) we are breeding like rabbits & 'Mother Gaia' is groanin' BIG-TIME !!! - to round off quickly = we are due for EXTINCTION - if we follow our current path - God gave us choice & we are choosing - God created Planet Earth & the universe to evolve:( yes = I believe in evolution ) = but as you ( & I & a growing number of people are noticing ) - the 'system' is broke - but we are choosing ( en-mass ) our direction & therefore our destiny: ( Thoughts = Words = Actions = Habits = Character = Destiny. ) - anyways = you get my drift 1 = I'll sign off now = cause I cud go ALL day wif this topic ! cheers & thankz fer caring too about where we are headed kind regards CEM. :))
Please keep looking up. This is nothing brand new and I "low keyed" my video deliberately. There are enough others on with some very outstanding documentation and to myself convincing evidence of just what IS going on. (The "Mainstreet Media" will hardly be reporting this.) Yes, the system is indeed broken beyond repair. Only someone in absolute denial or simply Brain-Dead would/could say otherwise. Nature ALWAYS has a way of pruning a species, and it appears obivious that Mankind through stupidity and greed will be helping Mother Nature out before all that long. But in the end, the ones in power will go down with everyone else. It just is that they are too stupid to even realize this. Take care "CEM" and wishing you a great week! :-)

Did anyone else notice anything odd in this message?
I was looking at it again last night and it occurred to me when
I first read the message that half of it was missing (the above
paragraph-) Well today that paragraph appeared. Anyone else notice that glitch in the system?
Welcome to the information super highway or as it really should
be called the information dirt road.
Hmmmm and indeed I find this most interesting. (Maybe the moderators might know as I surely wouldn't.) In any event, could it possibly be that a "Glitch" can be contagious at times? YT videos always have similar or "alike" videos to do with subjects appear at the end of a video and in a column to the right of the video of "alike" videos. But what's this? As of this AM, my video suddenly has only a few things (5) and nothing to do with this video at all. They have all vanished! See what you think. If when you look you instead see a slew of other videos that "ARE" related to my Jet Trail topic, then indeed it must be a glitch on the part of YT.
If so, this is the 1st time in 4-1/2 years since I have posted any video that this has ever happened before.
When it comes to electronics, I do not really trust them all that much. But that is just me. I actually like things to be written down in ink on paper. It worked so well and there was nothing to vanish (unless stolen or lost of course.)

Hi Justin,
I've contacted government agencies about chemtrails but they deny they exist and claim they are contrails. They must think the public are all total idiots. Contrails and chemtrails exhibit very different patterns. I've heard theories these trails might be used for weather modification, to change the soil content to make genetically modified seeds that are aluminum resistant to only grow, to modify or engineer humans with robots (transhumanism), to reduce the human population. The fall out from these trails in testing is: aluminum oxide, barium, strontium, plastics, zinc (among other things), in levels enough to be toxic to human health. It makes me wonder how stupid the people are who dump this garbage? Check out this web site to learn more: www.aircrap.org
Hi "J.M.M." Thank you for listing that site. I made my video a little on the low-key side from what it could be, for surely something is going on up there and has been for a good many years, not only here, but all over the world it seems. I also listed a number of the chemicals you have listed. People stupid? I just couldn't believe the comment by the man in the coffee shop the other day of which I speak in the video I just put on last evening. (I gave a link to it in my reply to Raul below if you are interested.) There are so many many more posted however and sounds as if you are well versed in all of this. Wishing you a great day today.

... fantastic pic. Justin - but OMG = air-traffic-chaos !!! = PASS !!! = I think I'll drive ...
LOL Wish I could fly just like Superman did and to think, one only needs a cape and there is no polution. :-) Alot more photos in the video I just made in my posting to Raul below. All the best-

I can understand your concern about this, Justin. Here is a link to explain what is going on. It appears to be an attempt to save our planet from deadly climate change. While the aerosol spraying may make some people ill, (myself included) the alternative is much worse.

Hey Scott! :-)
Hope all has been going well with you these days and thank you so very much for including that article. (I am quite sure that I read it once a while ago and there sure are some good points within it all.) I really do appreciate your posting this very much.
I have to wonder about mankind saving the planet from warmings or chillings with all he has trashed here so far. I am just looking at the whole picture, and our planets history appears to be one of constant change-swings over periods of thousands of years. I think that this is probably normal for the Earth and I doubt man is powerful enough against such a force. Even Einstein couldn't figure this one out probably. Those chemicals being dropped in attemts to save, in the long run may be?/are? doing more harm than good. A tough situation whatever way it is looked at Scott, but I DO wish someone had an answer.
Don't know if you knew of or saw a video I just made on this very subject a few days ago. I posted it down below but just in case. For some strange reason, similar videos that should be appearing alongside have vanished and been replaced with subjects having nothing to do with Contrails or Chemtrails. No doubt an isolated glitch in You Tube and in time the correct related subjects will return I guess.
In the meantime, take care Scott and hope you are having a very nice Spring Day today in your area. It is gorgeous up here today and no Jet Trails either. Nice blue sky and sun! :-)
All the best-
Justin~

Looking great, Raul! Don't worry about looking your age. I was feeling my age (44) until I started growing my hair. Must have taken 5 years off!! I do enjoy the gray in my beard. None in my hair though! Your hair is really coming along. This is the first pic you've posted where your length starts to show!
Thanks Tony!
I do believe having longer hair makes one look a tad younger sometimes, though for me, the worst possible thing is ging with short hair and completely clean shaved.. I look 12 years! So I'll take looking 30 rather than that, any day of the week! :)
My beard hair is pretty funny, since I've got both some dark brown (my dominant color), some grey, some white, some black and even quite a few completely ginger hairs, hehehe. Don't mind those as much as the few gray hairs on my head, but we shall think about coloring when the hair is longer. Want to keep it natural as long as I possibly can :)
About the length- I think it might also be an optical illusion since it's all slicked back, but as I am nearing my 6 month mark, I am definitely starting to feel like one with medium length hair, if nothing else! It's a good feeling, brother! :)

How far north in Norway do you live?
Hair and beard are both great! The hair especially, the slicked back look really works, but I can see you pulling off shoulder length+ really well. Congrats! and keep growing.
Hi Raul,
Cheers for sunny days, and we can never have too many of those. After a miserable start to our spring earlier on, it has turned quite divine around here for the past week or more.
Your hair and beard really do look good, and I look forward to your continued updates.
Keep up the good work!
David
Excellent look! The sun brings out the colour!

... Gr8. pic. = lovin' 'Da-Slick' :)) cheers CEM.
Your hair is looking good my friend. I'm a big fan of the beard as well though mine apparently grows at twice the rate if yours. Must be that German Irish blood. If only the top of my head grew that fast. I've been styling the hell out of my own hair lately due to social restraints (really conservative parties and the like). I don't like having the product in my hair but on the upside my hair has returned to it's natural part down the middle. My hair has been looking awesome lately, so good my friends are starting to call me Charlie Sheen. Anyhow I'm digging the slicked back look. I can't wait to see it get longer.
Beards are great, I love 'em, too (in fact, I suspect that many women are a bit jealous of the fact that they can't grow them - LOL)!
Your hair is coming along very nicely. You have an excellent head of hair to work with, too -- very full, nice color, and I totally understand what you mean about changing your moods from slicking it back with gel, to allowing it to just blow in the breeze... it's all just a part of the fun of having long hair!!!
