I don't have any pics to share, as I'd like to grow out my ds' hair too. Problem is, it gets to a certain point and just starts looking wiry and sticking straight out in all directions. Do I just have to be patient through the awkward looking phase?
Oh, and I found this photo on the web (not my pic). This is kind of what I was thinking of....

Unfortunately, I have no advice on how to acheive that look. it's his buzz cut grown out. 
Now, if you do decide to go shaggy, hide all scissors from you MIL. And don't let your kid go over to play for an afternoon. Because when you get him back, he might look like THIS:
And then you might have to call every beautician you know on a Saturday night to get it fixed before you have to go to church the next day, because your poor kid is mortified of his own hair.

Well, it was clearly the mushroom reference that linked them for me.  But you're right, they're not the same AT ALL. Hair is much less significant... That and Hair grows back, foreskins don't.

Have a question for those who have let their son's grow out their hair.
Did you do something to make it less 'in need of a cut' looking while going from clipper cut to longer?
J has wanted to grow his out from time to time and we never make it past 6-8 weeks before both of us say 'time for a haircut'. He looks so darn cute with a fresh cut..his is usually kind of a fade with the skater bangs. I wouldn't mind seeing it longer..and it would save me the $12-$15 every 6 weeks so a bargain too.
How do we get through the grow out stage?

I've kept my older son's hair longer since he was little, but only because he has a really nice wave to his hair. My younger son has really straight hair so I keep it shorter (not clippers short though, I can't handle it that short!) Here is a pic of my older son a couple years ago, I love it when his hair is like this:You can kind of see his hair in this pic too, this is from a couple months ago:I usually cut his hair myself, but I am so far from knowing what I'm doing that I usually cut it too short and then have to even it out and then just let it grow for a long time, trimming his bangs so it's not in his eyes, and trimming the back so he doesn't have a mullet. ;)GL, boys with longer (stylish) hair are totally in right now and SO CUTE!

i love all the boys with the longer hair...
my DH "surprised" me by cutting ds' hair. with clippers. i almost cry every time I see it. he had the most beautiful hair... ringlets... (he's a toddler by the way).
my DH had a bowl cut when he was a little kid (4??) and it was ABSOLUTELY adorable. I look at the pics and think he was the cutest thing ever. even DH thinks he was cute.
don't worry. your son won't hate you if he has a "mushroom" cut.

First of all, WHY in the world would you compare a mushroom haircut to having your son cut/uncut down below? Totally uncalled for, IMO. And I personally agree that the 'bowl' cut is totally OUT for kids, boys or girls, these days.
My DH has pictures from when he was a little kid where he had the 'bowl' cut because his mom thought his red ringlets where SO cute. While he does not hate his mom for the hair cut he hates any of the pictures that show him with that cut. I hardly have any toddler pics of him because of it.
I would love my son to have the shaggy surfer hair cut when his hair finally grows. He's only 1yr and his hair is as long as it can be right now.

I don't understand what the problem is with the "mushroom" hair cut, which by the way is not the real mushroom hair cut like a pp pointed out. Maybe is because that's how my boys have had their hair. All the men I know that had that hair when they were little have no problem with it, even DH. Now the real mushroom hair cut, I'm not a fan of, but to each it's own. I had a friend in HS who's mom gave him that hair cut and the other boys made him cry in the bus, he came back to school the next day with a shaved head.
2 year old DS had the round cut right now, and 4.5 year old has had a buzz cut and has been letting it grow now for a few months. I almost changed my mind when he was going through the whole process because it wold stick up around the crown and then on a side but now it's starting to take shape and pretty soon I'll just cut around it. What really helped was water down gel. I would put it on and comb it down then it would dry but not be hard.

Wow, trying to inject your circumcision mantra into a HAIRCUT thread? That's pretty sad. Are you insecure about your choice or something, because I notice you are also blabbing about it in your blinkie.......how do you think your son feels about the fact that you are talking about his PENIS? Who cares about hair....seriously that was a really rude and uncalled for comment. totally inappropriate. You need to get your reinforcement for your choice of penis style somewhere else........

I tried letting DS's hair grow to get that cute sufer boy look. Sigh.
But instead of going long it grew round. It was a big poofy mess on top of his head with his hair being curly. I wish he had poker straight hair or even slightly wavy hair. His hair is inbetween curly and wavy. It's curvy?

Oh, you all need to lighten up.
The comparison was the "mushroom" part. She implied that cutting my son's hair this way was "cruel" somehow. I was simply pointing out the IRONY of her comment about cutting something into a mushroom shape being cruel. In fact, that poster actually repeated, almost verbatim, my "he'll thank you for it later" blinkie, only in reference to the haircut. I think it takes a moron to NOT see the connection.
As far as being "insecure" with my decision, I think it's crystal clear that I'm quite proud of my "decision" not to mutilate my son. As far as "spouting my agenda", why yes, my anti genital mutilation stance is a HUGE part of my life. So sorry if you don't like it. Ok, I'm not sorry. Sue me.

I do not get the blown in one direction look. #1... how the heck do they do that? I think I think it's cute, but I am not sure!
I do know I am a total advocate of NOT cutting your child's hair yourself, unless you are a cosmotologist. Really. My SIL cuts my nephews hair in a layered cut, and it always looks AWFUL!
Pay the $15 and take them to a professional. It really is a bargain, trust me.

OMG Rebecca, that post had me laughing WAY out loud!!!!!! (the bad haircut one!)
I've got no family near me so that won't happen!!! And ds is determined to have long hair so it will take some hefty convincing to get him in for a trim. (And BTW I loved the other pics Rebecca!)
That picture of Zac Efron made me laugh....he is so girly, esp in that picture.
Love the beach shot too!
MY husband is Navy and I used to cut hair in the Navy so my speciality is SHORT (Not buzz, but tapered clipper cuts).
My son's forehead (hairline) is quite high so I'm totally loving the longer bangs!
Here are some pics I have in Photobucket.....someone tell me if I am open up for the crazies to come steal my pictures....I'm not good at the protection/privacy thing.
And here is one with his dad (which shows off my speciality SHORT cut that I gave him!) This is when we first stopped cutting it And here is the BEFORE last summer in his "short" days (which may feel much better when summer rolls around!)

I love longer style hair cuts on boys...it seems to be the rage in middle school...
Sadly..this is the best look..under his cap!!
This is actually 3 months of growth...he had grown it for 2 years and needed a trim....I tried to do it...We wound up at Supercuts 15 mins later and he was BALD!!!

This is another 3 months later..the awkward stage...luckily the new braces took away from his funky hair cut!!

This is last week..it is pretty long and brushes over to the side. It is pretty cute, but I never thought I would spend so much on hair product for my 12 yo son!!!

you cant be serious! dont blame your uti's on your ex and his natural penis. Did you know that the US is the only country in the world that has such a high circ rate? in many countries no one is circ'd and the women are all just fine, no uti's raging b/c the men are au natural. seriously that is just assinine!

Wow. That's... Gross. I've never heard of such issues, and I know quite a few intact men and their parters. I think maybe you just need a lesson on how to clean YOURSELF. Yuck.

Oh, I hardly think I was trying to convince anyone in this case. Sad that you don't see it as mutilation, though, since that's exactly what it is. It's not "idiotic", it's obvious. Oh, and LMAO, that's exactly what I said, Yes, my son's penis is a huge part of my life... But I have had to look at it multiple times a day since he was born, and luckily for both of us, everything's all nice and neat down there, instead of raw and exposed.
She doesn't care, her precious little boy will never leave her right?
LMAO! Oh, that was good for a laugh. My son's whole penis has nothing to do with me, other than the fact that it was/IS my duty to keep him safe and protect him, and when I declined the circumcision after he was born, I did just that.  He's welcome to choose circumcision when he turns 18, though I think we all know that won't happen. "Yes, Dr, please cut off the most sensitive part of my penis so that I'm exposed and will eventually lose most of the *good* feeling down there." Sounds good, right? I'm sure it happens all the time! Not.
