I cut

After 6 months of growing I cut... I just wasn't ready to grow it long yet. Too much responsibility for me at the moment. As you all know, growing long hair is a lot more than just not getting your hair cut. It takes a lot if will power and I really don't have it right now. It was taking too much out of me. Don't worry, I will grow it back. I've decided that I will get my last haircut on Dec. 31 and it will be like my New Year's resolution to grow my hair out. It will be a good way to observe my progress throughout the year too. I'm kind of disappointed that I had to cut it but it's just one of those things. I'll still be lurking around a lot and posting occasionally. Oh, by the way, I cut to about 3/8" length all around. Yeah, pretty short. Feels nice though. Well, I'm off to my new job orientation now (no, I did not cut it for this!). Take care guys.
Chris

: After 6 months of growing I cut...
My condolences, dude...
One thing I found helps a lot with the patience aspect of growing long hair is to not think about your hair while you're growing it. The only attention I ever pay to mine is when I wash it. Of course, it's a complete bitch to manage on a windy day when I decide to wear my hair down, but I'm not an outdoorsy type of person, so that's of little consequence to me.
In any event, good luck!
I cut...maybe

Follow your feelings...if it 'feels nice' maybe that is telling you something...
Good luck

The new year is not far away, so it`s not too bad.
Good luck for your resolution to let it grow long. While it`s short, don`t make the mistake of neglecting it. Take care of it no matter its length.

Last month, you said:
"When I think about having my hair long it makes me really excited... I don't feel like me with short hair."
Who do you feel like now that you cut it?
Just wondering.

Hmmm, well... I do feel sort of weird. I guess I do feel like me, I am just more comfortable in long hair. I don't know, I just gave in I guess. I'm weak.

Just keep it short. Don't bother growing it.
If you really wanted long hair, you wouldn't have cut it.
