I like your new rinse/color.
I think your ends look fine, but I can see where you may want to cut an inch to give it more fullness. I don't think it's necessary at all.
Join the "no trims til 2010 challenge." It's a good reminder not to cut/trim your hair. Last wash I had a strong urge to do it, then I remembered the challenge and opted against it. I plan on letting the challenge take me to MBL or WL.
