Picture Purged
Hi guys
Here are my progress pics taken in October by way of the "end of septemeber" progress
This represents a little over 21 months of growth.
The back is a little wavy because I've been wearing a ponytail for most of the day, I've also been outdoors quite a bit in a stiff breeze so you are seeing my hair in pretty much its average state, rather than neatly styled for the progress pics.
I don't appear to have gained much length over the past few months, but I think that is a trick of the way my hair is falling, the length is now flipping outwards at the shoulders whilst before it was the lower layers doing that.
Anyways here's the pics, comments, questions criticisms welcomed.

definitely you are better with a ponytail than with loose hair. congratulations!
Looking good my friend! Keep up the wonderful work! Try not to think about *noticing* any increase in length. The first hair I bothered to measure was 36 inches. Kinda like watching the grass grow you know.

Agreed!
First, the hair looks fantastic, Sorted. Very nice!
Secondly, trying to watch for hair growth is like the old saying...a watched pot never boils. Just let it grow, and eventually you'll just notice that it's longer as the months pass.
I can relate to how you feel. Although I've had long hair since the 70s, there have been times that I've lost hair due to a bad cut or something I messed up which required a cut. For example, on July 1st of this year I lost seven inches because I trimmed the ends when it was braided. Looked good until my braid was taken out! YIKES!
To this day, I keep looking for improvement in length. Seven inches is a lot of hair to lose all at once. And at 41, my hair doesn't grow like it used to. I think I have about an inch back.
Waist to roughly mid-back is a tough thing to go through when you don't want it.
Your hair looks great! That's to both Bruin and Sorted!
Well, since I have a habit of comparing faces (I do it with absolutely everyone) I shall include you too. First off you remind me of Zelda. Secondly as shown in your ponytail photos, you remind me of a WWE wrestler called Rhyno.
Aside from that, great hair! I wish mine was that thick. Whenever I see how thick your hair is at the back, combined with the waves and ripples, I always picture a stream with water flowing over rocks. Weird, but meh. It has a great flow to it.

...Thanks... I think... :-)
Sorted...looking good, man!
I'm sure your hair is still growing. As others have pointed out, you'll notice it eventually. Wait 'til your next milestone at 24 months. You'll notice some more growth by then. I thought that mine had stopped for a while, but I was wrong. So don't dispair and keep it growin'!

Thanks Brett, though I have to point out I don't think its stopped growing and I'm not fretting, all I'm saying is it doesn't look much longer than my previous pics, but athis is because I think the length is hidden in the photos because of the way my hair is falling at my shoulders.
how was your hair when you started growing your hair ?. Curly ?
Nope, My hair was pretty straight to begin with (or looked that way.) After it got a few inches in it, it became straight-to-wavy, annoyingly it never seems to be one or the other. :-)

It just looks better and better!! Keep growing and I would like to see the fringe in the face.
The back looks noticeably longer, while the bangs, which frame the side of your face, appear to be relatively shorter. And when you do tie your hair back, I still think the style where you have the ponytail up towards the top, in which you leave a fringe below, is great.
Wow looks great sorted!
I particularly like the ponytail - it looks so long and shiny :-) I looked at the first pics you posted and thought wow, and that our hair is about the same length. Then I saw the ponytail pic and wowzas how did you pull that one! It's twice as long?! lol
Anyway, awesome stuff!

Well I'd say your hair has gotten longer since the last time I saw a pic of it. Very nice Sorted!
I have a question though, have you lost some weight? I mean you've never been overweight, but in these pics it seems as if you've gotten even thinner...
But I really like the way your hair is coming along, great job!

I'm hovering around the 80 KG mark (176 lbs) which is about right for being 185 cm (6'1). I might be looking a little leaner for doing more exercise.
Ok then it makes sense, so basically, reading from your website, you then lost about 6 Kg? In a period of ?
Yep. Simply wicked!
What can I say? It always looks great, man! You say it doesn't look like much more length but I can see a bit of a difference from last time. Always awesome.
How about a pix showing the length of your fringe? Looks like it would be below chin length.
Sorted, there isnt words to describe how much you and your hair has been an inspiration for me. Thank you! I absolutly love your hair! And the ponytail.That style is my favorite, and it sure suits you well.Thanks!
Wow Sorted-
Absolutely AWESUME Hair! Looks fantastic!!!!!!!
I am very happy for you.
All the best-

Sorry for the late post, I've been quite ill today and yesterday, which was my birthday. Your hair is amazing, the back looks so thick!!! I'd love to see another cousin it pic:)
BTW, for all who cares, I'm starting to feel a little better now, so if I'm much better by later, I will take some pics and post 'em
Your hair is looking awsome. It really changes in a few months. Keep on growing man, it looks good on you.
