That was in the bad ol' days of chemical colouring and flat irons, but I must admit...I did like that lighter red (strawberry blonde) and I'm kinda sad that I'll never have it again. It did kinda kill my hair though

Want to chop about 3 inches off to get rid of my longest layers and make my hair look thicker, but then it's always tied up french twist style anyway so what's the point! grrrrrrr
I have done several micro-trims but it's not helping!

Thanks for the support Dave and TDouty!! I am still struggling with the urge to cut, but haven't done it yet. One day at a time. I am taking today off and giving myself a deep conditioning treatment instead of cutting

Miss Rini, I really like the way your ends look. It probably depends on the individual's taste, but I really like it. It's different, which makes me want to keep looking and take it in. This is from a guy's perspective, so other's may see it differently. Relax and put the scissors down ... all of you.

When I first started growing my hair out (from a typical men's short
cut), I let it grow without trims for almost 12 months. It may
have been messy, but I didn't care because it was getting longer all the time.
At that time I sought out and found a stylist that was truly
sympathetic to my wishes to grow it longer, and I started having just
1/8" to 1/4" trimmed from the ends of the layers every 6 weeks.
And after every trim, my hair seemed to have better shape, and it made
the grow-out process much more bearable. But I know I was lucky;
not everyone has or can find a stylist sympathetic to the
wanna-be-long-haired.
I have no recommendation for any of you but I wanted to say that I
understand your feelings and I wish you all the strength you need to
reach your goals.

Okay, looks like we need a "NO CUT" support group here. I know I would be sorry if I cut my ends, damaged though they are. And LongHairDreams and Rini, your ends sound very healthy, just more tapered. And MissMareeJane, your fringe and hair look just fine as is. So........(imaginary circle of us all holding hands, closing our eyes and taking a deep breath).......I will not cut or trim my hair this month........

I guess that makes 3 then.I have been going back and forth.One minute I'm dead set on a trim,and then I decide I just cant bear to cut off any hair. Another issue I have is not being able to heat style.Its been hard to come up with cute hairstyles when I dont heatstyle.I usually end up with a half up,or bun style.I am ready for something new.

The frustrating thing for me right now, is that my ends are really in GREAT condition....they feel so soft and silky and look shiny. It's just that my growth has been so rapid and uneven that they look very thin and tapered (and STRAIGHT!). I don't like the look at all . I have not cut my hair for 7 months now (a record for me!) and was hoping to go at least 12 months. I could do that still, it would just mean no wearing my hair down in public. And to be quite honest, I'm getting a little sick of wearing my hair up every day.
So you see....the urge to cut is alive and well over here too

Rini, I am going through the same urge to cut. I was going to post a thread about it. It is always such a strong urge - I am still growing out these crunchy, damaged, funny-colored ends. Maybe I should try the spit stuff....
