I got mine trimmed last at the end of November. Should have had it again trimmed sooner, but I'll be going this weekend to do that. I dye my own hair and have been doing so since about age 13/14. It was dyed last weekend and I'll probably re-bleach my blonde streak this weekend after my haircut.

The only thing I would go to a stylist for is a) if I needed highlights, but I haven't done that in years and I'm certain I could do it myself, b) if I were to go blonde, which I have never been and can never see myself doing and c) to get it cut. Thank god for being raised by a cosmetologist and being (mostly) self-sufficient hair-wise since 2003.
