Hi guys,
Lately I have been wondering about whether i should get a small trim every once in a while to insure that my hair grows in more healthier and fuller. Everyone seems to have their own opinion about whether or not to get "maintenance" trims.My hair seems to be slightly brittle but not really that damaged, and I am wondering whether i should even get regular trims or not. Let me know what you guys think since most of you have probably gone through a hair journey atleast once. Thanks alot.

Most people around here, at least most of the regulars, will say trims are a no-no. Each trim will just shorten your hair and will not miraculously increase hair growth. Some people insist on trimming split ends but if you panic with each split end, you'll cut off way too much.
So, just chill and stay away from scissors.
I'm in the same boat, except I'm just considering ttrimming a couple centimetres off the back. Yet everytime I convince myself to do it, I look at the back and think, "awwwww you guys have been with me since the start, I couldn't do that to you."
New guy here. I've gone years with split ends and never had problems. When my family finally convinced me to get a trim, it brushed easy for about a week before they just split again. I'm still not sure about why cutting off hair at the end is suppose to have any affect on how it grows at the base. I have gone back to my original stance on hair that lead to its length: I don't care enough to wash and condition every other day (daily causes it to dry out) and brush it every morning.
Split ends will come soon again. You just lose length if you cut it every few weeks or months. Just let it grow and take good care of it and you'll have much more fun and progress with it.
Ok thanks for the advice guys, that was basically what i was thinking all along, i guess i just needed to hear it from other people to make my decision.
No keep scissors, clippers, razors and anything similar well away from your hair. It does not make it grow faster and the shape will take care of itself. Just take a look at the manes of those posting recently at the 12-24 mark to see how good their is.
