Hi, you guys. I've been visiting this message board on and off for about 12 years. That's when I finally decided to grow my hair long. I'd always wanted to do it, but every time my hair got close to shoulder length, I'd get self-conscious and cut it short again. You guys helped me get over that. I posted a couple of times back in the day, but never became a regular.
Just thought I'd jump in and say hello. I just turned 55. My hair is currently almost mid-back in length.
As for hair care, I get regular trims every 3-6 months, depending on what I've been doing. Regular trims keep it looking healthy. My stylist is awesome. A couple of months ago, I told her I wanted to cut it short and she was like, “There's no short hair in this chair!” Love her.
Contrary to most advice, I shampoo and condition almost every day. My hair is fine and my scalp is oily. If I don't wash it, my hair it looks terrible. I use a moisturizing formula because its more gentle on my scalp.
I also use the hairmax laser comb to maintain my hairline. I started using it about twenty years ago. Does it work? Well, I'm 55 and still have a decent hairline, so maybe.
Anyway! That's it for now. Hope you guys are doing well.

Hello everyone,
I hope everyone is enjoying the nice spring weather. Today, I’m doing something a little different by posting a couple of videos from my YouTube channel. I hope that this works.
I’ve always felt that seeing long hair in motion can show it much better than any still photo could. The first video, that I took a few months ago, shows my hair indoors, in motion. As usual with indoor photos, the hair looks lighter than it actually is.
The second video was taken while I was walking outside a couple of days ago, while walking, with my hair blowing in the wind. With the outdoor lighting, the natural silvers show better.
I guess that my hair doesn’t look too bad considering that I’ll be 73 in less than 3 months. I have a couple of other videos on my YouTube channel as well.

I'm ditching this board, again.
People here do not seem to care about growing their hair. Or seeking advice about doing so.
Good morning everyone,
It's been about 2 weeks since my last post, thought I'd make an update. Still on the path, alternating between feeling like I am making some progress and feeling like it's taking forever :) Not much growth since last time, but this is my hair freshly washed. Just as an experiment I've been trying egg-washing my hair once per week. It sounds strange, but it seems to work pretty well for me. Anyone else ever tried it?
Hope everyone has a great week!

Hi everyone,
It’s been about 3 weeks since my last post and thought I’d post a May update. Still a work in progress but getting a little longer every day 😄
Hope everyone is doing well! Keep growing!

Put your mind to a thing. Achieve that thing.

So… I was chewing gum last night, and I woke up with it in my hair. yikes
My friend took the photo. ( I had to cut out the gum with ✂️ scissors)
Be true to you. Grow it long.
Hey Y’all
I’ve finally reached my 3 year mark of growing it out. This past year I started using Nutrafol to help with growth as well as Hims minoxidil and finasteride to help with thinning at the top. I’m looking forward to what kind of growth I’ll see this next year! ☮️
