No trimming for 2007 Challenge, All aboard lol

[SerenavanderWoodsen]

Although my hair has been looking quite thick since I trimmed off probably 95% of the relaxer that was left in my hair. I oiled my hair down heavily last nite and noticed that though it is unfair to judge the thickness of oiled or wet hair my ends were looking TOO skimpy :-( I had to grab my scissors and cut that skinny hair off ( approx 1 inch) and afterwards felt as tho I mustve trimmed away the very last of the relaxer now. Its always liberating to cut thin ends for me.. Id like to propose to myself and anyone else a no trim challenge by vowing to treat our hair as well as we can so it wont need ANY trimming at least till December!!

 

[darkempress]

I LIKE THIS CHALLENGE
YOU CAN COUNT ME IN , I'D REALLY LIKE TO SEE HOW MUCH LONGER I CAN GO WITHOUT TRIMMING, ITS BEEN ALMOST 6 MONTHS ALREADY. IT'LL BE GREAT TO SEE HOW LONG WE CAN ALL GO W/O TRIMMING AND STILL KEEP OUR ENDS IN TACT

 

[SerenavanderWoodsen]

Thats great darkempress, thats the spirit!!

 

[eajaye2u]

Count me in! Hiding my scissors right now.

 

[Blackoutzangel05]

I was already planning on not trimming until the first of the new year so count me in!!!

 

[scarcity21]

im in...i trimmed in feb and march..no more trimming til the end of the year!

 

[Iansan]

I haven't had a trim in year! My ends look okay they were looking bad for awhile but somehow they thickened back up. I'm down until the end of summer, I'll trim again in August.

 

[MizAvalon]

I'm in! I won't be trimming in 2007 OR in 2008!

 

[Ayeshia]

Im not gonna make it a challenge but I havent timmed since New years Ill try to see how much longer I can go. So far so good.

 

[Empress Yahudah]

U can count me in!!!! It will be neat to see how much growth ill be able to see ..just gotta keep my moisture,protien and supplement game tight

 

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

I'm in! This sounds like fun! I got my hair trimmed with my last relaxer. 10 months without a trim is long for me but I know it'll be worth it.

 

[Mocha5]

Ooooooh, I think I'm gonna have to get in on this one. I think my last trim was Oct. 2006. It would be great if I could go at least until Oct. 2007. So, yep, I'm in!

 

[tnorenberg]

Would that include dusting the ends as well?

 

[pinayprincess]

COUNT ME IN!

Oh gosh! I have been eyeing this thread since its been posted. I am not sure I can make it for the entire 2007... I will try though. I am truly addicted to the scissors..which resulted in me having a short hair cut again, I guess this is why I need to be on a challenge that makes me refrain from the scissors. its just that 2007 is a whole damn year...erplexed

Okay count me in. I am due for a relaxer on the 12th of April so...I will relaxe and all that and no matter what I will not trimerplexed


Okay fudge it! Im in. I mean how much of a trim will I need after my relaxer


Im in!!!!

 

[natstar]

I'm in too. I haven't trimmed since August 2006 and I don't plan on trimming until Dec 2007.

 

[scarcity21]

how are y'all doing?

 

[eajaye2u]

how are y'all doing?

Doing good on this side. Babbying the ends and no flat iron. Wearing the flass and wigs. How about you?

what is "dusting"

 

[so so chic]

I'm in. I haven't trimmed my hair since July 2006 . This is a FIRST for me. It will be interesting to see how long I can go.

 

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

I'm going strong! yay!


Dusting is a much lighter version of a trim. (Just enough to dust the ends off?)

 

[eajaye2u]

what is "dusting"

Its killing off the split ends byt seek and destroy, one at a time. I havent even done this during the chanllenge. How did you get your ends to look to so great in a short lenth of time? I am uneven SL right now.

Thank you!

Thank you! I actually have no idea how that happend. My hair broke off unevenly at the beginning of 2006 and it seemed like the difference between the two lengths was just getting worse and worse. I just started taking care of my hair and it seemed like the shorter side just caught up. I really have no clue what happend erplexed At the time my stylist recommended I cut the longer side to even up with the shorter side but i was didn't want to lose the length so I just did a wait and see and luckily everything turned out good. If your're against trims and if your ends aren't split then I would recommend waiting and seeing what happens, it might just even out. Otherwise you could get regular trims on the longer side and get "baby" trims on the shorter side until eventually it evens out

ETA: no more trims for mee!

 

[ShiShiPooPoo]

I'm in. I fell for the school of thought of "a trim every 4-6 weeks" until I found this site. My last cut was in March and she did an excellent job at evening my hair up so I feel good that I don't need anything done except a relaxer.

[Marcia16]

Count me in as well. I will continue to deep condition once a week, moisturize & seal my ends & take my vitamins regulary. I will trim Jan 2008.

 

[Jas123]

I really want to join, but I'm so afraid I'll fail..I'm just gonna take it 1 day @ a time..

 

[Blackoutzangel05]

Still going strong! I was scared that my hair dresser was going to trim them for my wedding but she said that I didn't need it. Thank God for baggying!!!! or just taking care of my hair...either way, no trimming for me!
