    Default Should I trim now?

    I'm due for a trim next week but I'm going on a trip for a couple of weeks and won't be able to. Should I trim now or wait until after, and should I cut off the usual 1/4'' or more than that?

    I would wait until after because usually when im on a trip i pay less attention
    and frankly treat my hair differently/like crap. with water changes and stuff.
    and constantly traveling, dry air from the planes etc.
    I would trim after so that if you incur any damage from your trip you can snip it off.

    I agree. I would wait until after the trip. And your ends still look good to me, but I tend to say that a lot; I don't however say things I don't mean!

    Why are you trimming at all?
    From Hip to Ankle and now back to Hip again.

    I would trim before. Only a tiny bit and you’ll have it done and over with. Plus your ends will be looking and feeling really nice on your trip.
