About 7 inches. How much longer till I achieve long hair status? How does it look?

Well, since I'm unable to see your photo, I can't make much of a comment on how it looks (other than to attempt to answer your questions without the pic)....
"Long hair status" is a relative judgement call. If you were to ask my father (who absolutely HATED long hair on men until the day he died), he would have definitely said, "It's way too long now!!" But, if you were to ask most of us hair fanatics that regularly participate here on MLHH, most of us would probably answer something like this: "Is it dragging on the pavement behind you as you walk down the street yet? -- Well then, it's not long enough!!!"

Damon corrected the link for me. Sorry first time posting
The best link to use from Photobucket is the one labelled "Direct". I *think* this is the correct link below my post.
What people call "long hair" varies. Personally, I'd say you are already there. A couple more months and your hair will definitely rest on your shoulders - and then *no one* can deny that you are a "longhair"!
Looking most excellent so far!

If your hair. Feels long then you've arrived!!! It looks amazing. You really wear it well.
Hey Preston, It seems your hair is the same length as mine right now! Your hair looks very healthy and well taken care of! It's funny you ask this because I've been wondering the exact same thing the past few days. I've been noticing a lot of little things but the biggest thing I've noticed lately is that my hair is longer than a lot of women I see throughout each day. I still don't feel like I can claim long hair status yet myself...and I'm not sure yet at what point I'll feel ready to claim it!

Hi Preston,
I just love the color and texture of your hair! You should have no problem growing your hair long. It looks like you have made excellent progress for such a short time.
I'm afraid long hair "status" is subjective. One person may think mid-back is "long". But another person may think classic length is "long". For a man, I would think anything below shoulders is long. However, I believe your hair would look lovely at waist length or longer. I suspect your hair will show length fast because of the straightness of your hair. I say go for it! Please keep us updated my friend and welcome to the board! Nice smile, by the way!

Some people might say you've already got long hair. :-) That said, when your hair touches your shoulders is where most people think being a long hair really begins. How long to reach there? Hair grows at a rate of about a half inch a month, so you can do the math. :-)
And how does it look? It looks great! You have nice coloration and it fits your face well. I think it will look fantastic longer!
Good luck!
