Every four or five weeks for maintenance.

I don't like salons. I've had too many bad experiences with stylists who argue with me or don't do what I say, so whenever possible I'd rather go it alone. Really I only go to the salon if the style I want is too complicated to do by myself :-P . I do all kinds of ill-advised things on my own, don't I? *laughs*

I go about every 8-10 weeks. Hmm, actually closer to 8 weeks.

Every 2-3 weeks I go for a bang trim. When I kept my hair shoulder length, I would get a trim every 1½ months or so. Now that I'm letting it grow, I probably won't get a trim for about 6 months.

I haven't had a haircut since May. But I did have my bangs trimmed about 2-3 months ago. I'm gonna go as long as I can without going to the salon. But once it gets really uneven at the back, I'll go in for a trim just to get the ends evened up into a blunt edge. And I've decided to let my bangs grow out so I won't even have to go for bang trims in between.

I haven't been to a salon in about 3 years. One of my friends is a licensed cosmetologist and she trims the ends maybe once a year; otherwise I have also let trusted friends trim the ends occasionally.

It's been about 6-7 years since I've gone to a salon to get my hair cut/colored, but have been in one to get my kids hair cut.

Ok question, for average healthy hair, how much split/dead ends should be getting cut off at a time, ie every six months. I am trying to baby my hair but was just wondering what was normal.

Hi Breece,
You only "need" to trim off what is damaged... or uneven (if you're going for the neat-line aesthetic). You could conceivably trim 1/2" or even as little as 1/4" if trimming once every six months.

Now that I'm growing my hair out, the last time I went was three months ago just for a little trim..and, thankfully, the stylist listened! I didn't end up chopped! But, If I could go just for the experience of having someone else wash my hair and nothing else, I'd be happy! And, I wish I could just go and sit in one and watch the befores and afters. I love that!

Hi, I think it depend on the style and length.
For me I get mine trimed/shaped up every five weeks.

I get my pixie trimmed once a month, sometimes a little longer than that, to keep it at a short length.

In an ideal world I would get it trimmed every 6-8 weeks and highlighted about 4 times a year, but it is so spendy! I love my hairstylist, she is great! I have long hair so it is fairly maintenance free in the cutting department, if I had a short style I would have to get it cut much more often, as it grows pretty fast. It depends on the person and the hairstyle.
