I have been watching this board for some time and thought that I would introduce myself. I have been growing my hair for a little over 13 months from a very short flattop and hope to keep going for a long time. I have to wear it pulled back for work their rules but wear it natural most of the time away from work. Here is a picture taken about 2 weeks ago
Welcome and you hair is great. Look forward to seeing you around.
Welcome! Your hair looks fantastic. It appears you were meant to have long hair. Hope you keep it growing. sj
Hi Don,
Welcome to the board! You have made excellent progress from a flattop! Your hair grows fast! I like the waves you have in your hair. I sure hope you keep growing it for a long time as it will only look better! Please stay well my friend!

Yes it grows fast, has always, that is one reason I decided to let it grow, tired of going to the barber so often. Here is another Pic taken about the same time.
Hi Don,
Yes, I know I am glad I don't go to the haircut place anymore! They are charging $10.00 at the cheapest place I know of around here! To heck with that! Your hair looks awesome here! Keep it growing and put the barber out of business:)

Hi Ted.
They're already charging around there for $10,00? I was thinking only around here in Brazil it was expensive as hell.
The more cheapest place you can find around here is the Barber's School in a place not far from were I live, for just $2,00, don't ask for quality, they're apprentices and still doesn't know a thing for cutting hair, just for grabbing the clippers and shaving all the way, that's what they do around there hahaha.
But for the "Professional" ones, the cheapest is something around 7 to 8 bucks.
Cheers.
Welcome, Don. You look like a natural long hair with the beard and the nice look to your hair. Can't imagine what a different image you gave with a flat top, but this image you give is great. Hope you find patience and persistence in your goals.
Here is a picture taken sometime around March of 2013. The flattop was starting to get longer and not standing up, so I went and got it cut again a few weeks later.
Probably shouldn't say this, but you look great with either look. I have to admit, hair styles change the appearance of a man drastically - I guess it depends on the look we are going for. I like either look on you, Don. But, I agree - I like the freedom to escape the barber chair - something I've never really enjoyed for some reason.
Welcome Don.... I am glad you posted... I wish my hair grew like yours.... keep growing.... you will like it... all the best.. The Spaf Man
