One of the frequently asked questions is about trimming natural hair. How to and how often should you trim your natural hair?
There’s a rumor that clipping your ends or trimming your hair is unnecessary. This is false. Your hair will seriously suffer from a lack of maintaining your ends. I can attest to that. I am so sad to say. Read more here

According to Dickey, Creator of Hair Rules & Stylist to celebs such as Alicia Keys, Kelis and Michelle Obama you should schedule a trim every three to four months. At this time the hair shaft begins to split naturally. Regular trims maintain the shape of your style and remove naturally splitting ends. Hair grows about 1/4 to 1/2 inch a month. If ends are clipped regularly, you will only remove about 1/4 inch or less. Leaving you with noticeable growth and length retention. Caring for your ends properly in between trims by sealing your ends with hair butters or oils can prolong the need for a trim.

I went to a salon and requested a trim while my hair was in its natural state….(5 months prior I received a blow out and got my end trimmed) and my hair has been healthy and I do not straighten my hair at all. I do a lot of low maintenance styles…back to the point. I went in for a trim and she cut off about 4 inches of my hair and it was uneven… and I informed her of this and she wasn’t remorseful at all… extremely rude and uninterested in how I felt about her cutting so much of my hair off….. one of the worst experiences of my natural hair journey… feels like I’m starting over its been a month since it happened… 🙁
