Hey guys. I just wanted to introduce myself. I used to post here occasionally a while back, when I had long hair. I think this place is great and I still lurk around. Well, tomorrow it will be 13 weeks since I shaved my head completely, and 13 weeks since I've got a haircut. Yes, I went from near shoulder-length hair to NOTHING! Well, there was a period of two days in between when I had a bout a half an inch of hair. Why did I cut, you ask? Well, it was the first time I grew my hair long, and I was not very nice to my hair, being a 17 year old guy who knew nothing about hair. When my hair was long I hated it, then I dyed it and hated it more, then I cut. That's basically the story.
Well, over that two plus years I learned a lot about hair care, and specifically what I need to do if I want nice, healthy long hair. So here I am growing again. 13 weeks and roughly one and a half to two inches of hair sits on my head. Didn't measure, though. I figure it's growing at about average speed, though several people have commented on how fast my hair has grown. Maybe they just don't realize how long it's been since I shaved it, or maybe they're not used to seeing a person grow their hair from a shaved head. Anyways, I figure in about 2 months it'll be down to my eyebrows. Can't wait till it's long again. I don't feel like myself.
Well, that's my story, abbreviated version anyways. I'll post a picture to show my progress as soon as I get one. Short hair sucks.

I am in a similar situation than you. I am at 15 week now. I started from a bald head. It doesnt grow fast at all... It is not even long. But at least, it is comforting having some hair than no hair at all.
Remi,
Do you have a picture? I'd like to see how long your hair is at 15 weeks. I'll post a picture of mine now at 13 and we can compare. Just curious. It does feel so much better having some hair than none. I feel much more confident.
No sorry I don't have any picture.
