Long to bald to long again?

Are there any men out there at least in their 30's that used to have long hair in their teens/20's and then either shaved or buzzed their heads and kept that look for years and then went back to long hair again at an older age? If so, was it harder mentally to make the decision to go long again? Was a receding hairline or graying hair an issue? And will you go back to bald again? I'm seriously considering growing my hair out again after years of being bald by choice and I'm interested in other men's experiences. Thanks, Scott

I had long hair for years and shaved it for about 2 years. I've been growing it back for 18 months and am pretty committed to growing it long again... maybe even dreadlocks in a couple years. My hairline is receeded from my 20's but that doesn't matter very much to me any more.
Yep!

well im a little bit out of that age group you mentioned so i don't know if this will be of help or not...
when i was a kid/teenager i used to have a couple diffrent types of longish hair
i never actually just cut it, just everytime i got it trimmed i got it trimmed a little bit shorter
first i had long shag type hairdo when i was younger, then had a long (bleached) typical HUGE 80's mullet type thing when i was about 12
just kept trimming it shorter and eventually buzzed it all
i grew it out again as a mullet in the late 90's and buzzed it again because it got nasty from how i used to dye it
then i grew it all out about 2 years ago, i think im at terminal length though now (male pattern baldness is starting to effect it)
