5 and half month ponytail.!!
Posted by Grale on June 04, 2003 at 13:56:14: Previous Next
Ok so i was messing around with my hair after washing it tonight, combed as much of my hair into a bunch to see how long it was and thought Hmmmm... i bet i can get that into a bobble.!!! Haha ok so its a very sad looking tail and it's only the back and some of the sides that are in the tail, but it has given me a great boost in continuing through the awkward stage.
It will be 6 months since my last buzz on the 19th of this month, i never thought i'd get this far and probably wouldn't have without my dayly visits to this forum.... :¬)
Cheers,
Grale. :¬)
Yikes..

Seriously try and refrain from putting your hair into a pony at least until somewhere around one year. Not only does it look atrocious, but it may end up damaging your hair because you have to struggle to attempt to get short hair in a tail. Be patient.

There is now way you could have grown all that hair from a buzzcut
in 5 months. That would take at least a year. I started from my hair a little past my eyerbrows almost 9 months ago and your hair is just a tiny shorter than mine. I'm not questioning you but how could your hair have grown that fast?
Maybe...

. . .that was 16 months? If not ...
it's some of the fastest-growing hair around!
Looks great...Nice color too...
It will help to ease your way OUT of the awkward phase...
very nicely!
Good Luck on your journey!
I was going to say the same thing

That is a hell of a lot of growth for 5 months.. My tail isnt even that good, and I have about a years growth starting with 2 inches (so about 16 months altogether, or 8 inches)

I was supprised myself when i saw how long the back was.!! Honestly and i have no reason to lie, i had a number 2 buzz on the sides and number 4 on top on dec 19th 2002, now the fringe at the front will pull down to just below my eyes the sides are now passing my ears and the back is at the bottom of my neck. I always had my hair buzzed every 2 weeks to keep it looking short, all the barbers say i have very thick hair and grows very quickly (I HOPE).
Have a look at Aron's site my hair is pretty much the same as his in length i think, i'll try and get some more pictures taken as this was taken with my 7650 mobile.!!!

Well like he said it's only the back and some of the sides. I can do that and I'm at about 6 months, from the back you'd assume that the hair from the front of his head is in it too but it's not, from the front it looks like you have a part going sideways across your head (like from ear to ear instead of front to back) and it does look weird. but no, there's no hair from the front back there so yes he can definitely do that.
Re: Yep ... :))

Spot on Steve-o :¬) i didn't realise when posting that it could give the false impression (and that wasn't the idea) that the hair from the front is in the tail, but no as you say just the back and some of the sides :¬)
Just gave me a glimps of what was to come and gave me an incentive to struggle through the awkward stage....

I do not know why everyone thinks that this is to fast of growth. I had my last haircut sometime in August and my hair goes into a ponytail today (About a 4 inch ponytail). I have taken both B and C vitamin supplements which scientifically explains my growth.
Great growth and good luck man!

Well maybe the vitamin supplements work!! Funny because i do heavy training at the gym 4 days a week and take a few supplements which contain many vitamins, i also take vitamin c everyday,drink 3 litres of water and keep a healthy diet..
I know if i don't eat and drink well i don't gain size at the gym, it seems to make sense that hair would benifit from a healthy life style ..???
have you any progress pictures ColdFlu, i'd be interested to see how your hair growth :¬)

I will take a picture and have it posted by tomorrow and share the link with you. I worked out in a gym most of last year to lose some bodyfat, using weights, cardio, healthy diet. This year I have taken a break from all that but maintain my vitamin supplements.
I'll be posting my before and today pictures at my personal site which is located below. Just give me until tomorrow.
