Hi Guys, just want to share my latest progress pic:
Whilst it looks pretty well behaved from the front, it can still look pretty wild from the back 'n' sides... With the new Scooby Doo film out now I'm just waiting for "Shaggy" Comments to start.
"Gee Scoob!"
And I'm supposed to be a Web Designer!
Great progress photo. (Looks like the Awkward Stage in your case may very well be a cinch.) Lucky! :-) Thanks for sharing the photo with all of us and good luck in growin it Long!
So people keep telling me, but it doesn't feel like a cinch! Its driven me nuts at times!
Thanks for the positive comments, cheers Justin.
Happy to do so Sorted. I know where you are coming from in regards to "it doesn't feel like a cinch." Guess we ALL have an array of things happen to all of us while growing-out our hair. But, I have yet to read of a Longhair who has finally made-it to his goal complain in the end that it wasn't worth it.
Nice hair man! Thickness is very impressive
What month was it when you could put your bangs in your mouth?
I think i'm aiming your your type of hair when mine gets longer
Damn I'm responding to every reply... how vain is that?
Thanks, but the thickness is also annoying... I'm flattered that you'd like "my type of hair", but given the choice I'd suggest something straighter and not so thick.
Er, I think about month 10. But I've had my bangs trimmed a fair bit, I think it can be done sooner, depends on your start point, and the size of your head, (literally) I don't mean ego.
I have a big head, and a big ego!
Going by the photo your hair does not look so thick to me... or is that what people call 'thick hair'? I wish I had hair like yours- mine's enough for five people.
Your hair is looking good though and I think in another year or so it will look AWESOME!
You should see it from the back. :p
Thanks man!
Great progress! I'm sure it will get easier for you from here on out. Have you had any trims? Did you hold the camera at arms-length? Thanks for sharing your progress with us.
Thanks Gollan - I hope things will get easier.
To answer your questions:
4 trims, 1 every 3 months on average since I started 14 months ago. My Last trim was about 6 weeks ago, though I'm not planning on any others for a while now.
Yes I held the camera at arms length, my DigiCam (Olympus C-300) is pretty good for self portraits. Its main problem is the lack of a rapid fire mode, you have to wait 30 secs between shots, so its no good for action photos. But otherwise very well worth the cash.
Really good long hair. Go your way!
Your hair is looking great. In maybe 6 more months your awkward stage will be only a memory and things will be much easier. The hair products you use are working well for you too. Absalom
I know how it goes :{
Looking good, btw!
You certainly look like you are member of the Longhair crowd.
Your hair looks thick, healthy, with a nice controllable texture
that flows downward the way long hair should.
You must feel great about your progress now!
Congratulations and good luck on your journey!
Looks excellent
Great hair, you're at about the same length as me...anyone ever tell you you look like Ryan Smyth from the Edmonton Oilers? hehehe
