Should i trim....sorry no pics ADVICE NEEDED

[Striving4perfection86]

U know i had to put that disclaimer in da title cause i know we all love a bit of hair porn!
ok so i'm doing this hair journey and all is going well my hair grows 0.5 inches per month and i'm retaining all my length...i have no split ends although i keep thinking should i trim to keep them healthy, my hair is in fantastic condition i can comb through the whole of my 3c head and only have 5 shed hairs...i'm also transitioning and am 10 months into my transition. i'm jus so scared of having a set back i occasionally dust as well.not sure what to do is having no splits a sign of healthy hair or should ends be trimmed regardless.. TIA

I mean IMO if you dont need the trim dont do it. If your hair is healthy and you dont see splite ends, whats the point? I was wondering the same thing about my ends, I havent trimmed in about 4months and I know some ppl trim every 6wks...but like I said IMO if it's healthy and NO SPLIT ENDS...why do it?

I do understand where you are coming from Hikmah1986, last year I trimmed my hair once or twice but this year I trim my hair four times and I also do s&d because I was afraid of causing a setback and I believe I caused myself my own little setback by trimming too much that I had to get a corrective trim (after that I trimmed my hair again myself). My ends weren't split & I did have a couple ssks but I didn't need to trim constantly. Moral of this story is: if your ends are fine then leave them alone.

If you dust, there should be no need to trim.

I agree. I believe you should dust regularly regardless but if you're dusting then several dustings over the course of the year save you needing to have a trim.
