If you have bangs...

[lauralala]

Do you trim them yourself, or do you go get them trimmed?

I got bangs cut about 3 weeks ago, and they already need trimmed.  Yes, this reminds me why always grow them out.  I don't have a regular hair person, and the lady that just cut my hair no longer works at that salon (moved out of town).  My instinct is to just do it myself, but I am well aware that could turn out badly.

I don't have them now, but when I did, my salon offered free trims for bangs. I used that. The one time I cut my own bangs in HS was very, very bad.

i just go get my stylist to do it, it's free.
i would not try it myself, but my hair is super finicky so i wouldn't want to. i think plenty of people do it themselves with no issue.

If you're going to do it on your own make sure you do it when they are dry not wet otherwise they'll end up way shorter then you want and you'll look like a dumbass. Not that I speak from personal experience or anything.

i do this, but i have long side-swept bangs, so it's more forgiving. 

I guess I should say I WAS trimming my own bangs when they were side swept.

I did trim these ones a little after I got the cut on friday because there were a few hairs that lay differently than how they did when the stylist cut them.

But I'll probably still trim them myself. I've never had any real mishaps.

If they need TO BE trimmed, there are youtube videos explaining how to do it yourself. I always trimmed my own.

Yeah, I know I did that.  I'm going to claim regional speech patterns, as opposed to lack of infinitive verb usage knowledge.

I get a bang trim when they NEED TO be trimmed in between regular cut/color. I suppose I could learn to do it myself, but it's not that much trouble to go in for a touchup once a month.

I do trim mine, but they never look as good to me as they do when the stylist does them, at least for a few days anyway.
