Hair update....

Well I don't exactly know where to start, but as per someone's request, here's a written report on my progress.
My bangs reach down ALMOST to the bottom of my top front teeth (hair-in-mouth milestone here I come!), the sides are about the same length as the front, and I can pull hair from the back of my neck around the side of my face to about 1 inch from the corner of my mouth (without moving my mouth to the side). It's parted in the middle all the time now.
Some girls were just messin' around and managed to form pigtails with my hair.. they weren't very pretty but at least I can pull it together and tie it right? If I pull the bangs back they're about 1 inch away from stayin' put behind my ears. If I tuck all the hair behind my ears and tie the back, it could almost past for a full ponytail (as long as there's no wind blowing). I guess my hair must be getting long because I took a walk after dark last night with it tied back and out of the like 10 people I passed, they all gave me the cautious look like "Oh watch out, here comes a 'questionable character.'" We all know how people associate long hair with all the bad things. Oh well, I consider it a compliment.
As far as products go, I'm still an avid Aussie user, and use L'Oreal Melting Gel every day.
Here's my routine in case anyone would like to know. Every 2-3 days, during my shower, I shampoo with Aussie Moist shampoo, and then condition with Aussie Moist conditioner. All the days I don't shampoo, I rinse with warm (not hot) water to get the gel out, then condition. After my shower, I part my hair, then add in about one fingertip-full of L'Oreal Melting Gel, evenly throughout my hair. Then I comb it through and try to make it as straight and nice as I can because later in the day, the way it looks dry will depend on the way it looked when it was wet. After it's all dry (about 2 hours) I work out the gel by just running my fingers through my hair. This leaves my hair free to move around, but keeps it frizz-free. If things get out of hand I can take a handful of water and smooth it all down, and the gel works all over again.
Oh well, enough of my blubbering. Thanks for reading this far, if you have.... I'll get those pics up probably this weekend. I can't do it tonight and I'm doing yard work tomorrow but I'm off of school Friday so maybe then. I'm looking forward to them as much as you guys. :)
See ya around.

Thanks for the update. It sounds like you've got your hair growing situation under control. I'm looking forward to seeing your latest progress pictures.
p.s.: we both started from a caesar cut... have you had any trims?
