PLEASE don't let my thread languish in "no-response hell"!!!
Let me preface by saying...this is the most decent curly haircut I have EVER had in my entire life.
She was trying to help me keep my length, so I guess she left hair that really should've been trimmed away. At present, I have a bunch of split, straggly ends at the longest part of my hair. Treating these ends have proven to be only a temporary fix, and I know my hair enough to know that these ends just need to come OFF.
I got the Deva cut this past August. Before this, I had not had my hair cut in a really, really long time. So the ends she left behind would've ALREADY been pretty old back in August.
Problem is, I have NOT been working steadily since August and there's just no way I can afford to go back to the salon.....not even for a trim.
I usually trim my own hair. I have so much that it usually doesn't make a difference if it's slightly imperfect.
For the record, my hair is 3b, very thick and fine, also very dense. It hits almost waist-length when straightened.
I know this is a really dumb dilemma.....but I'm so afraid to mess up a good thing. The ends are really shaggy and fuzzy; my hair doesn't look good curly OR straight right now.
Should I just trim it myself, or go to a cheaper place just to get it trimmed and pray they stay within the lines of the original cut?
