Hello all,
I'm new here, and I'm facing quite a problematic conundrum. My current hair length is just past shoulder. Throughout the year I was going in for regular trims about every 2 months. Unfortunately, the stylist always cuts too much off. The problem is, I tell them specifically that I am trying to grow it long, and leave it up to their discretion as to how much to take off, and the result has been very little progress in my hair growth. Additionally, the last cut I got deeply thinned out my hair :(.
Anyway, I decided to quit the hairdresser for a while. It has been about 4 months now, and I'm finally getting some progress (from above sl to just below).
I will be in Toronto for Christmas where I will be able to go to a highly recommended stylist that I found on naturallycurly.com, my ends are in okay condition, not a lot of splits, but they are very dry. If I do not take this opportunity to get my hair trimmed/shapped now, I will not be back to Toronto for another year, and good stylists are hard to find in small towns. Should I bite the bullet and get a trim now (damage control), or should I live with the dry ends and wait until next year?
Thanks in advance for all your help!:o
