A trim is a trim.

But that's just my opinion. You might love the microtrimming thread.

I wish I had kept track of how long my hair was in September/August so I could know how much hair I have grown since then. But I started paying attention in February, so I only know from there.

Everyone's hair grows differently, but my last cut was also in September 2011, and it was trimmed to about 19 inches. I started my LHC journey in November and was around 21 inches. My hair grows an inch every 6-8 weeks, so I'm around 25" now, which is BSL or just shy of BSL, depending on the bra.

Hope this helps, in some way?

So... Who else is thinking a trim will probably be happening on January 1st, 2013?

I'll probably do mine the last week of 2012. Start the year fresh to see if I could go for another year.

November 12th, 2012 will be one year for me, so I was thinking of trimming then. I guess if I make it that far I might as well hold off until the end of the year.

Well my last real trim was in November 2010 and the last micro trim was November last year, hopefully I will hold out till Jan 2013

I'm planning on trimming on New Year's Day, then microtrimming for a while. My hem is looking really ragged.

8 months without a trim so far (since about September last year). Yay.

Still going strong. My ends are quite okay still, so I'm hoping I can continue with this no-trimming challenge for quite a while.

Still not trimming or even paying any attention to my hemline. My hair isn't knotting on itself though so I am sure it is fine. Problem is, it doesn't feel like my hair is actually growing o.o
