Do you prefer to trim wet or dry?

[Rebel Rebel]

I've trimmed mine both ways and have had good results using either method. I feel like trimming dry is more accurate, as I get to see how it looks immediately. Does it make a difference in whether the ends will split or not? What do you prefer for your hair type?

For me - definitely dry. Cutting on dry allows me to respect the natural wavy texture better and not to cut too much off (due to shrinkage that would otherwise occur if the hair goes from wet to dry).
No difference on split ends formation for me. But then, my hair doesn't develop split ends easily anyway, even if I go for years without cutting.

I prefer to trim my fine silver when it is DRY.
When damp it curls/shrinks and I am afraid of cutting too much.
I usually trim before I shampoo; it is more relaxed/sleek.

I've been cutting dry for the same reasons. Straightened and dry might offer even more accurate results? Been meaning to try it but lost my British adapter that I need for my straightener.

When I'm cutting the hemline or whenever I've cut bangs I need my hair wet for "precision" but for layers and such I like my hair dry because I like to fan out my ends in my fingers a certain way and I can't do that while wet. Plus wavy/wurly hair behaves differently on different parts of my head and so I cut to my hairs shape

I trim dry, it helps me to have better control over how much I am trimming off. Plus I can see the end result straight away.

I like to cut it dry. I can see where my layers and my splits are, so I know whether I should be cutting more or less off.

I barely dampen my ends with a few passes of a wet comb, just enough to get them to hug together a bit. I feel my trim accuracy is better if I'm trimming with hair mostly dry - otherwise if it's really wet it seems to want to slide around the scissor blades.

Dry! Never wet!

I do it on dry oiled hair and then add more oil to the ends when i'm done.
