I’ve been trying to grow mine out for years. Multiple times I’ve lost many months of progress to malicious hairdressers but now I’m at a length which finally feels longer and I’m so happy. I hope it continues growing well and I continue getting happier and happier with my looks.

Feel free to join in or share your hair growth journey no matter if you’re masc or fem. :)

    I am actually! (am a guy)

    I always got it cut around the awkward fase. My hair is quite robust and curly so when I grow it out I always look like a crazy professor after a month or 2.

    I got a keratine treatment to relax it for a few months, so it is more manageable.

    I am blessed with thick, coarse hair so I am very excited to see how it will look when it is (eventually) longer than shoulder length.

    My last haircut was around the beginning of december 2022 so I hope to see some nice results around december this year.

    Do beards count? Like many men, I decided to stop shaving during Covigeddon and discovered that a big, bushy beard suits me and decided to keep it.

    I’ve been growing out my hair since June 2020. It’s reached a point where I feel like fuck it imma just cut it.But knowing that, this is the longest my hair has ever been and every day I keep it is a new record, motivates me to keep it.

    How much longer will I keep it ? I have no clue

    I’m trying to grow mine out, which is hard because it looks a bit messy. I have trouble finding a barber who can help shape it (it’s curly, so you really gotta find a good one for a good result) without cutting it really short. Now the hard part is finding products and techniques to style it. I’m so used to typical men’s hair routine of like 3 in 1 shampoo, so I’ve had to do a lot of research because I actually need to put effort into how I wash, dry, and style it.

    I haven’t had my hair professionally cut since 2020. I used covid as an excuse to get through the mullet phase and now I just keep it tied back and cut it myself when it gets too long to sleep comfortably with.

    Hi yes I’m growing out my hair :) I’m trying to present more fem (at times) and this is a great way to accomplish that because I also really wanted to try having long(er) hair for the first time.

    I started at the end of 2022 (my last haircut was in November) and I’ve been growing it since then. I got kind of annoyed by there being no shape to my hair anymore last month so I did end up going to the hairdresser mostly to style it (ofc cutting it makes it a little shorter). It’s kind of medium long now, like 5-10cm away from my shoulders still.

    I’ll keep on growing it because I like it a lot and I’ve gotten very positive responses from friends as well which is super nice!!

    I used to have long-ish hair. I shaved it all on the 1st of October when I started my PhD. Will not cut it until I’m done with my studies 😎

    Right now, it’s getting kinda long, can’t wait to have long hair again.

    I’m a cis guy and I started growing out my hair in 2019. I’ve trimmed it a few times, but it’s currently at my middle back, but will soon be at my middle-lower back. I’m pretty happy with it and don’t imagine me ever going shorter than shoulder length again.

    I’m planning on moving onto a sailing boat within the next couple of years, I think I’ll celebrate the occasion by growing my hair out about shoulder length. Never had it properly long before, makes sense to do all my drastic changes in one go!

    I have hair down to my waist (f). Seems to be its terminal length as I don’t really cut it. I like long hair on men too
