I'm just curious when I should know I'm done with it.
Most people's awkard stage last about from 7 months to a year. The awkard stage starts at like 4 to 5 months of growth and stops at about 1.5 to 3 years worth of growth. This all depends on the genetics of the person.
It should all be over by the 2nd year for good............about 12-14" of hair growth. You will know easily because your hair will do about anything you want it to and it becomes a most pleasurable experience and suddenly commands respect and awe by so many. COMPLIMENTS from strangers will be heard and possibly take you off-guard if you have been mocked before. (This mockery seems to all end.) It is kind of like suddenly you are an idol or hero of some type and beware........you may get too much attention all of a sudden. :-)
Just hang-in there.
Well, for some perspective, check my post above yours, I'm @ 8 months and have curly hair.
I'd agree with the other guys, though you don't look like you're having a very awkward 'awkward stage' - you have cool hair from what I've seen in your pics!
Reminds me of someone like Kirk Hammett or something - very stylish curls that seem to sit that way all by themselves!
wolfeyes
That's good to hear, though may I remind you that the front has the "wings/horns" that I remember. Eh, I'll be done with it soon.
Uuuuuuuuuhhhhhh who? Just kidding and thanks for the compliment!
