So here it is at 5 weeks.  I think I can tell some improvement in the front and on my left side, but not so much on my right.  Then again, these were taken right after I got up today, so this is definitely me at my worst.  I don't have a plan for how long I'm going to grow it out.  At first I was thinking 8 or 9 weeks, but the more I think about it, I'm considering longer periods.  As always, any feedback/suggestions/ideas would be helpful.
