Hello :)
In March of 2011, I decided I wanted a change; I got a layered cut and straightened my waist long, virgin hair. I was tired of dealing with the thick mass of different types of curls and waves on my head, and hacked it all off. Naturally, I regretted it a month later. Here's what it looked like:

Sorry, I know it's not a good picture, but the only one I have from that time. The shortest layer was just under my chin, and the longest layer brushed my collar bones.
I've since sworn off flat irons and all heat/styling tools in general. I've had four 1" trims since then, the last one being on Dec 31, 2011. I'm trying to participate in the "No Trims in 2012" challenge, but I want the layers to even out. Here is what it looks like today:

I've regained quite a bit of thickness, but you can see where the ends are still thinner. I don't know if a trim is necessary at the moment; the ends are not splitting, and I've tried to keep up with S&D. Maybe the layers will eventually "catch up"? What do you think?
