I'm thinking of doing the no trim for the 2nd half of 2017! I'll probably trim right before to get as much of the underneath as I can, and then just see how much length I can get in 6 months! I'll likely go backwards in length at the start, to get as much of the underneath even as I can, but I'm wondering how close to APL I'll be after 6 months.
I've got two sections that are shorter than the rest of my hair, one is 2" shorter, and the other is 3.5" shorter. The bit that's 3.5" shorter is in a spot that isn't really bothersome, and if left shorter would just be like... face framing? It's not the top, but the bits right at my temples? So not super awkward.
I think I could do it!
