Growing out my hair

[vindication]

you are prohibited from typing that much in a single post in an off topic section about hair. lol
If you really want to then let it grow. I would let my hair grow out but don't think I would look to good. Plus If I don't put gell in my hair it gets to be like a white boy fro. And I aint trying to walk around with a fro for 3 or 4 months.

Awesome. =) Friction, your hair looks about as curly as mine is (Mine is from the Greek in my family), and I'm at the same point as you, probably. Rather awkward.

Go to the salon/barber every 6-8 weeks, still, and get it trimmed. Don't be afraid to ask for advice from your stylist, as they can most likely direct you properly as far as what to do to tame the beast. Just let them know what you're looking for, and I'm sure they'd be more than happy to help!

Myself, I use a little pomade on light, non-formal days, and on more dressy occasions or when going to a club, I use a little gel. The gel I use is by Crew, and holds quite nicely; The trick with gel, though, is to break it up an hour or so after application, so it doesn't get crunchy and sticky.

Good luck! =)

ahh yes, the akward stage...I'm there right now, as my hair was once long enough to touch my chin(same length all around, as I too do not enjoy the mullet look), then, someone offered me 100bux to cut my hair, the said it had to be atleast an inch and a half off...so i did, and low and behold, the ******* hair dresser cut my hair, up front, and the sides..and left the back, I looked like some 80's pop star...I then told her to kill the retro boogy mullet look, and she looked puzzled, so I said cut some more off the back...lol. I am now back to the akward stage, as she ended up cutting my hair short enough to not even be in my eyes...thats alot of hair I lost. But, now it looks better, and it's going long again...god I love school, and only part time student jobs where they expect you to look like a drunk, wasted hippy...thats me. Doesn't help that I have a condition that makes me very dry, like, dry eyes, cotton mouth, dry skin...hehehehe, try walking into work with long messy hair, blood shot eyes, and complaining that you got crazy pasties and need a drink fast...hehehehhe, I thought I was gonna get fired for sure, but for some reason, my manager knew exactly why I was so dry, as her son has the same condtion...it's weird, I don't even know wut it's called, all I know is that I need eye drops, and need to chew lotsa gum to keep mouth moist, and drink lotsa water....and I just keep on talking about myself like some sort of egotistical bastard don't I?lol. Theres' this one girl at my school who talks like this all the time, and I swear to god, she reminds me of that chick from Cheech and CHongs up in smoke, you know the speed freak chick who's always doing some form of drug...yeah, thats pretty much this chick, and she sounds like a d00d too, just like that chick off the movie, kind of a deeper voice, and she's really loud like that chick. Oh Friction, may I suggest a volumizing shampoo, Pantene ProV makes one, that I used to use, it promotes Volume, but in a flat, streamlined kinda way, like, it kept my hair kinda neat and smooth, like when ur hair gets greasy, cept it looked alot less greasy, and more just clean flat hair. It was nice, but I hated the smell...lo. Oh, and I really do look like a hippy, cause I wear a Hemp Sweat Shirt all the time, sunglasses most of the time(dry eyes=sensitive to light) and my ripped up jeans(so comfy, I'd never leave them), and I often wear sandals, yes, even with socks...hehehehehe, HIPPIES RULE!!!!

Damn. (cryhard)

By trims, are you just referring to the sides and back until the top reaches those areas?

And pomade...that's natural, 'cone free wax?

Here's a more incriminating photo of the infamous mop while dry:

At least you have all your hair to worry about that s***, i'm only 24 and my damn hair is heading for the hills, heredity is a b****. I look like i'm 17 with the hair line of a 40 yearold, this is some s***. Good luck with the long hair, i'd do it if i could.

I did a lot of research on hair and DHT, and the biggest reason for hairloss is too much DHT in the body, especially the scalp. Now the best way to lower DHT in the male body is to reduce ejaculation. If you can go without ejaculating for a long time I gaurantee you the hair will start growing back. If not reduce the ejaculation to long/longer intervals and get progressively longer with the intervals. I hope I didn't offend anyone here, just trying to throw my two cents in.

lol...do the DHT blockers that are marketed work?

yur hair must grow slow...well its also curly. I dont have a current pic(this one's last year), but my hair is about this long now after about 6 months from having a VERY short summer cut before.

Damn dude...that is pretty fast. Like I said though, my pics are a month and half old and all curled.

I think I get about average growth (1/2" per month).

They do, but if you stop taking them it all goes to s***. If you do the combination of both then you should be on your way to a full head of hair.
