I skimmed through the thread and saw the usual deep conditioning and clarifying tips, but has anyone suggested henna yet? When I bleached my hair to oblivion two treatments really helped to salvage my hair. And as everyone has said do not cut! If you need to trim up an inch off the ends to get rid of any splits, go for it. But you might regret cutting it if your hair gets better! I know there were times when I was recovering from severe damage I contemplated just shaving it all off and starting from scratch. I'm so glad I didn't! I just had to find the right hair care routine again to help baby it. That's were you're at now! It's not so much that your hair is beyond repair, it's a case of finding what works for you all over again. Which is stressful, I know, but in my opinion better than long length. (: Best of luck darling <3
