I know for me it's been 6 years.....

I want to go get trims, but I always end up doing it myself because I get nervous about other people handling my hair.... :ohwell:

How long has it been for you DIYers out there?
 
One week exactly. I got this BC. She wants me to come back in two weeks, but I don't think so! Whatever needs to be done with this tiny bit of hair I can do myself.
 
1 year since I went to a salon in Spain to try a blowout. It had been 1 year and a half before that. After I started doing my own relaxers, I didn't have a reason to go.
 
7 years. i used to go to a barber everytime i had the urge to go back to a twa but learned i can do it on my own with the results i wanted. i don't like them trying to shape up my edges--doesnt work for me.
 
Decemeber 2010. Dominican salon. Never again. And since I am transitioning I am sure I won't ever be back in a salon.
 
yesterday, for a trim - i can't do my own trims
the last time before that was a year and two weeks ago when went to cut my hair back to a TWA.

i liked the stylist, and she did keep things on low heat. even so, it was more heat than i've used in over four years!
 
Woah thats a long time.... Have you ever wanted color or a cut in all that time but just didn't do it?

NinjaBear...Well, since I've been relaxed all that time, a color was out of the question for me, because I feel it is too damaging to use 2 chemicals on my hair at the same time. I won't even use direct heat on my hair, as long as I am relaxed/texlaxed. Also, I've always liked my natural color. Now that the grays are popping in, I just use a semi-permanent color to cover them.

Pre-LHCF, my hair was so short that I would just trim it myself. I've never been interested in any particular cut or style; probably because I was too busy trying to get some GROWTH!:lol: I'm just so grateful to finally have some length now. When I reach WL, hopefully by December of this year, a family member will help me (using the creaclip) to do a U-shaped cut.
 
I haven't been since 19998/99?

I use to go every 2/3 months for a relaxer & trim, one of reasons stopped going was because price was never the same, it kept going up every 2/3 months!
