Hi everybody,
Just thought I would post my June update. This is I think around 20 months. But keep in mind that's from a longish style. I apologize for the pics-they could be better. Thanks for the inspiration here! Onward and downward!
Ted
Lookin great Ted!
Keep up the great work. The hard part is over now!
peace,

Hi Bill,
Thanks so much for your very kind compliments! Yes, I am liking my hair progress so far! But I want more growth! I am hoping I can get to at least waist length! Thanks for your inspiration! You and Larry please stay well!
Ted
Hi Ted,
Well what can I say as your really picking up some length now! Definitely past your shoulders and going towards your back.You've come a long way my friend and its paying off :)Cheers

Hi Mark,
Thanks so much for your very nice remarks! It seems like I'm having a hard time getting the middle of the back to grow longer. Maybe it is true that as the hair gets longer it is harder to see new growth. Regardless, I'm going for waist length! And if I can get there, I will most likely grow even further! I still can't wait until I can put all of my hair behind my shoulders and have it stay there! Thanks for your inspiration and please be well my friend!
Ted
Hi Ted,
Glad to see your update. And I like your charge "onward and downward". Be healthy, my friend.
Hi white mane,
I thank you kindly for your very nice comments! I am definitely enjoying the long hair journey! I am feeling much better now and am trying to stay healthy! Yes, it it is onward and downward from here on out! Thanks for your inspiration and you stay well also my friend!
Ted
Great Update, Ted... I enjoy seeing your pictures from all three angles... You are looking great. I hope you are feeling well, too. 20 months - wow - you've made great progress. I am glad you are enjoying this journey and have your goal in mind.

Hi Fitz,
Thanks so much for your very kind compliments! Yes, I am feeling wonderful now! I appreciate that you think I'm looking great! You know I lost 20 pounds when they removed the kidney. I am able to wear my old jeans again and I love it!
I just wish my hair would hurry up and grow! I am indeed enjoying this journey though! However, I am enjoying everybody else's journey even more! It's so cool when someone posts a new milestone! You do know I am anxiously awaiting your update! And yes, my minimum goal is solid waist length. I'lltake nothing less-unless I have to! Thanks for your inspiration and please stay well my friend!
Ted
NICE!
Hi James,
Thank you so much for the very nice compliments! I am enjoying this journey even though I'm not noticing progress as much now! I must admit I am very much inspired by your wonderful hair! I am trying to reach waist length at least. Probably at least another 2 years. Thanks again and please stay well my friend!
Ted
Lokkin' good, Ted. healthy and shiny and the wave continues to add definition and texture. Soon you will be at mid back. I am keeping mine trimmed to just beyond mid-back length as that is my historical length and I am comfortable with it. Hope you achieve your length goals.
Hi Jason,
Many thanks for your very nice compliments! I am starting to get along with my waves. Sometimes my hair has a mind of its own! I have been trying to take care of it. I am definitely reaching for waist length minimum. I am happy you have reached your length goal!Perhaps you could post a back pic? Thanks again and please be well my friend!

Your hair looks great, Ted. You are showing good length now. It should look awesome at 30 months.
Scott
Hi Scott,
I thank you kindly for your very nice comments! I am enjoying it more as it gets longer! I may be at my goal of waist length at 30 months. Sometimes its really hard to be patient! I do thank you for your inspiration! Please stay well my friend!
Ted
Hi Ted,
Cheers and congrats on another excellent update, and your hair continues to get better and better. Keep up the good work with the growing!
Keep it growing,
David
Hi David,
Many thanks for your very nice comments! I shall keep growing until I reach waist length! I am really enjoying the journey and the different "moods" my hair has! I do thank you for your inspiration also! Please stay well my friend!
Ted
Looking good, Ted! You have made A WHOLE LOT of progress since this time last year, I can tell :)
Hi Raul,
Much appreciation for your very kind comments! Sometimes I don't notice the progress! I guess because I always see my hair and it's getting longer. And I am definitely inspired by your regrowth progress as well! I am happy you are growing your hair out again! Thanks again and please stay well my friend!
Ted
Well done, Ted, you have wonderful hair, nice and shiny and really well looked after. Keep going!
Anthony
Hi Anthony,

Hi A.D.,
Thank you so much for your concern and very nice comments on my hair! Slowly but surely I'm getting somwhere! Patience definitely comes in handy on the journey! I am doing much better since my surgery! Hopefully I won't have to go through any more major surgeries. Thanks again for your concern and may you stay well my friend!
Ted
Sorry for the late reply.
Your hair looks good as allways, keep growing and take care.

Hi Christian,
I thank you kindly for your very nice compliments! The journey is fun even though it takes forever! Our patience is eventually rewarded! I hope to be at my goal length in around 2 years. No problem about the late reply! Everybody has different schedules etc. Looking forward to your update and please be well my friend!
Ted
Hey Ted.
Well, the hair looks thinner on the ends, but that's to expect. Still looks impressive. Keep it up.
Hi Michail,
I thank you so much for your kind comments! Yes, I think my hair has thinned out over the years. But that's okay. I will just grow whatever I have and be happy with that! I am definitely trying to reach waist length. Thanks again and please be well my friend!
Ted
Looks excellent, my friend! I know you've waited for what has seemed like an eternity for your hair to get where it is now. I'm glad it's finally where you've wanted it to be for so long.
As you know, I've been laid up with broken bones since mid-April. My wife gets a lot of tasks that used to be my common everyday things. That includes washing my hair. At waist-length, it's a real chore for her to get done more than twice or maybe three times a week, tops. I'm thinking seriously on cutting it back to just about an inch or so longer than yours to make things a little easier on us both. What do you think? Steve.
Hi Steve,
Thanks so much for your very kind comments! It does seem like it's taken forever to get my hair to this length! But it's been worth it!
Yes, I can understand what you are going through. My wife had to help me with hair washing when I had a catheter in my chest for dialysis. It was a major pain. And my hair wasn't even as long as yours! Your hair is awesome looking! But knowing what I know, I would probably cut it to a more manageable length. Of course it will always grow back. But I would only cut just enough to make it easier for your wife to handle. I would get her opinion on this. I am keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers for a swift recovery. May you continue to get better with each day!
Ted
Apologies Ted...somehow I didn't reply to your update! I read all the responses, so that was weird. Anyway Congrats on 20 months! Your hair is definitely creeping down your back more than mine is. I believe I am around 21 months so the extra beginning length must be the difference!
Are you still wearing your hair loose most of the time, or have you been doing something different as it's longer now?
-Tommy
Hi Tommy,
My apologies back! I keep forgetting to reply! Thanks so much for your very kind compliments! I wish my hair was more straight like yours! It's taking forever to get over the back of the neck hump! I do wear it loose almost all of the time. I will most likely do that even at waist length. I just like long loose hair flowing about. Thanks again and please stay well my friend!
