Timely post for me as I have decided to grow out my hair and a full beard. This is after having spent my previous 60 years in crew cuts and Marine Corps “high and tight.”
By this time next year, maybe I look like Brad Pitt. Or maybe not. More likely I will end up looking like Kenny Rogers. But what the hell, I’m just going to let it grow nonetheless. At this age, I no longer care.
This post is worthless without pics.
Wonderful.
Hope we get a before and after

My dad got a crew cut when he joined the Marines at age 18.
When World War 2 was over he kept the crew cut - until he turned 80.
He let his hair grow then - beard & mustache too.
All his hair was snow white at that point.
Then one day it dawned on me: "I am the son of Santa Claus!".

He really did look just like Santa!
